Soros-Backed Prosecutor Faces Potential Criminal, Civil Charges: Missouri AG

Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey is looking for ways to hold ex-prosecutor Kim Gardner accountable. He needs to find her first.

What has been a “radical, left-wing social experiment,” according to Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey, is over in St. Louis, and he said it’s time for attorney Kim Gardner to face the consequences of her actions.

On Nov. 14, Mr. Bailey filed a 53-page report on Ms. Gardner’s time as St. Louis’s circuit attorney. Ms. Gardner resigned in May under heavy public scrutiny.

Ms. Gardner was the first black woman elected to the office in charge of prosecuting offenses inside the city limits of St. Louis and began her term in 2017. She was reelected in 2020.

“She bragged about coming to office with a new approach to criminal justice focused on racial equity,” Mr. Bailey said in an interview with The Epoch Times. “She bragged about seeking to actively shrink the criminal justice system, and she did that by unlawfully refusing to do her job and let the criminals take over the streets.”

Nationally, Mr. Bailey said the Gardner report serves as a blueprint for how other states can address “rogue, Soros-backed prosecutors who, rather than protecting their victims, are creating more victims.”

“In a lot of major cities in the U.S., you have Soros-backed prosecutors who were like-minded with Kim Gardner,” Mr. Bailey said. “Any time you see that kind of dark money flowing into those races to buy those political offices, that creates enormous problems for the population.”

Facing Accountability

In February, Ms. Gardner faced a quo warranto case filed by the Missouri Attorney General’s Office. It came after massive public outrage caused by the severe injury of Janae Edmondson, a visiting athlete walking on the sidewalk in downtown St. Louis, by Daniel Riley. Mr. Riley, according to reports from The Epoch Times and elsewhere, was an alleged repeat probation violator who should have been under house arrest. Ms. Edmondson had both of her legs amputated after the incident.
