Information
Party Democrat

Kimberly M. “Kim” Gardner (born 1975) is the Marxist prosecutor elected circuit attorney[1] of St. Louis in 2016. Gardner was criticized ahead of the election for releasing a political ad paid for by the Safety and Justice Super PAC that received funding from liberal billionaire George Soros, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.[2] The total funds donated by the super PAC were at least $190,750. It was not immediately clear what her campaign budget was or who else contributed. Gardner won her 2020 primary re-election bid while under criminal investigation.[3] Gardner is a member of the Democratic Party.

Violations of sunshine laws

The Post-Dispatch sued Gardner’s office in 2019 over her office’s refusal to release copies of contracts with vendors. A judge ruled in the paper’s favor in April 2020, but the paper said Gardner’s office has not yet fully complied.[4]

Gardner was sued again for at least the third time in July 2020 over the state’s Sunshine Law, an open records law that requires the government to respond within three days to requests for public records, the Post-Dispatch reported. The lawsuit claims Gardner’s office failed to fulfill an April 23 open records request for data on case statistics, dismissal data and staffing totals, the paper said. Her office responded in a letter May 12, according to the paper, saying more time was needed to fulfill the request due to the coronavirus.[5]

The Greitens case

Evidence indicates the woman who made false allegations against former Missouri Governor Eric Greitens was bribed to willfully lie under oath and engaged in extensive perjury in an effort to oust the rising Republican star from office. Katrina “Kitty” Sneed, testified under oath that she secretly met with Kim Gardner in a hotel room in January and February of 2018.

Gardner was the prosecutor in the case against Eric Greitens (shown above) that lacked sufficient evidence.

Following the secret meeting, Gardner charged Greitens with felony invasion of privacy in February 2018 for allegedly taking nude a photograph of Sneed without her consent and threatening to use the photo for blackmail. Greitens denied the allegations and Gardner never produced any evidence.

Sneed claimed during the deposition that the meeting with Gardner prompted her to come forward with a series of allegations against the then-Missouri Governor. When questioned under oath Sneed admitted she was reluctant to testify because she might have been remembering her accusations “through a dream.” When subsequently deposed, Sneed claimed she had never seen the photograph Greitens allegedly had taken of her and that at the time she also saw no phone or camera to take the photograph.

During Greitens’ felony invasion of privacy trial in May 2018, a forensic examiner extracted data from Greitens’ cellphone and email account. The examination revealed no photograph of Sneed was ever taken or deleted by Greitens. Gardner withdrew her indictment of Greitens when the judge ordered that Gardner herself would have to testify in the case. Additionally, evidence is mounting that Sneed conspired with Gardner to conceal prosecutorial misconduct.

In the course of pursuing charges against Greitens, Gardner hired former FBI agent William Tisaby. Tisaby has been charged with seven felonies for perjury and evidence tampering in the Greitens case. Tisaby’s trial was slated to begin June 26, 2020 while Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner remains under active criminal investigation for her allegedly illegal efforts to oust the Republican Governor.

After a 20-month investigation, the Missouri Ethics Commission in Feb. 2020 “found no evidence of any wrongdoing by Eric Greitens” and the governor who was forced to resign amid unsubstantiated allegations was fully exonerated.

After Greitens gained national prominence in law enforcement circles for “defeating Antifa,” Gardner, whose campaign received 70 percent of its funding from progressive billionaire George Soros, began targeting Greitens.

“It’s clear that a Soros prosecutor and establishment insiders were desperate to overturn the 2016 election and this is just one more alleged example of the kind of perjury, evidence tampering and lies that they engaged in. We knew that national liberals and insiders were coming after us. Now it’s good that the whole world is beginning to see the truth.

The best thing that I can do and the best thing that conservatives and outsiders can do is to continue to fight, continue to serve, continue to make a difference. Soros, prosecutors like Kim Gardner who he funds, and the establishment – they will be relentless and continue to attack us. No matter the damage that they do – no matter the difficulties that they put in front of us – we have to find ways to continue to fight.”[6]

Retired St. Louis Police Captain David Dorn was murdered by socialist revolutionaries during the Marxist uprising.[7]Gardner refused to prosecute 38 leftist rioters.

As a result of her misconduct in the Greitens case (including lying under oath), as well as little to no action against criminals on her part for ideological reasons, rejection of criminal cases based on her false claims of the St. Louis police being "racist" and her release without charges of all of the rioters involved in the George Floyd riots in St. Louis in 2020, the Missouri State Disciplinary Counsel found probable cause that she engaged in 62 acts of misconduct that resulted in 79 false representations during prosecution of Eric Greitens[8] and may be disbarred as a result.[9]

2020 Marxist revolution

Gardner allowed the release of all 36 rioters and looters arrested in the city following riots in which a retired Black St. Louis Police Captain, David Dorn was murdered by Black Lives Matter protesters.[10] The Marxist liberal activist leading the mob stood outside the home of Mark and Patricia McCloskey with a bullhorn screaming, "You can't stop the revolution!" Weeks later the same Marxist activist, Cori Bush, won the Democrat primary nomination for the 1st district of Missouri for a seat in the U.S. House of Representatives from the City of St. Louis, effectively winning the general election.[11] Gardner indicted the married couple for exercising their 2nd Amendment rights on their own property when they were assaulted and threatened by white Black Lives Matter terrorists.[12]

McCloskey case

Gardner charged the McCloskey's of St. Louis with weapons charges for defending their home.[13]

Gardner was disqualified from prosecuting a St. Louis couple, the McCloskey's, who defended their home with firearms when assaulted by Black Lives Matter terrorists. Gardner was found to have initiated a "criminal prosecution for political purposes" following reports that she used the charges to send out fundraising emails for her reelection bid.[14]

In May 2021, Mark McCloskey announced his candidacy for the U.S. Senate to replace retiring Sen. Roy Blunt.[15]

Dereliction of duty

Gardner's office failed to appear in court in the case of a convicted felon charged with first-degree murder, armed criminal action and unlawful gun possession. After Gardner's office missed three court hearings, the judge was forced to drop a murder case because no-one other than the defense, a public defender, showed up in court.

The judge wrote, “The court does not take this action without significant consideration for the implications it may have for public safety. Although presumed innocent, defendent has been charged with the most serious of crimes."[16]

Violation of state sunshine laws

In July 2019, John Solomon of JustTheNews filed an initial open, public records request under Missouri's Sunshine Law for all records of contacts between Gardner's office and George Soros, the Safety and Justice PAC, the Missouri Workforce Housing Association, and several other groups and individuals. Gardner initially ignored the request, then claimed the requested documents were exempt from the state's sunshine provision, refusing to disclose them. The trial court ruled in favor of Solomon in 2020, finding Gardner's office purposefully violated the Sunshine Law. According to the judgment, Gardner's office had to search for and provide to Solomon all the public records he requested within 30 days. Solomon was also awarded a civil penalty of $5,000 and reasonable attorney's fees and other costs associated with the lawsuit. When Gardner's office failed to comply by refusing to produce the necessary records by the required deadline, Solomon filed a motion in September 2020 requesting Gardner and her office be held in civil contempt. Gardner's office subsequently filed a motion to set aside the court judgment in favor of Solomon. The court denied the motion, and Gardner's office appealed.

When Gardner's office failed to comply by refusing to produce the necessary records by the required deadline, Solomon filed a motion in September 2020 requesting Gardner and her office be held in civil contempt. Gardner's office subsequently filed a motion to set aside the court judgment in favor of Solomon. The court denied the motion, and Gardner's office appealed.

In January 2022 the Missouri Court of Appeals, Eastern District, ruled that Garnder must hand over records concerning her bungled prosecution of former Gov. Eric Greitens to Just the News CEO and Editor in Chief John Solomon, who filed an open-records request for the documents. Gardner, one of the nation's first prosecutors bankrolled by liberal megadonor George Soros, to produce every document requested by Solomon. Gardner's office must also pay Solomon's attorney's fees. Judge Christopher McGraugh wrote in an appellate court opinion that the points raised by Gardner in her appeal "have no merit," affirming the decision denying her motion.[17]

Embattled St. Louis Soros-Funded Circuit Attorney in More Hot Water – Kim Gardner Sanctioned by Judge for Withholding Evidence in Double-Murder Case and Allowing Killer Out On Bond

by


Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner

Embattled Soros-funded St. Louis Circuit Attorney was sanctioned last week by a local judge after she withheld evidence from the court on a double-homicide case and released the alleged killer back on the street.

Local KSDK reported:

 A St. Louis judge sanctioned St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner’s Office for withholding evidence in a double homicide case and allowing the suspect out on bond…

…This week, Judge Theresa Counts Burke ruled in favor of Heflin’s attorneys from Bruntrager and Billings law firm, who filed a motion accusing Assistant Circuit Attorney Alex Polta of violating discovery rules that required prosecutors to turn over evidence including DNA reports and a recording of a 911 call.

“The Court finds that there have been repeated delays by the State in obtaining discovery and providing it to the defense,” Burke wrote. “There has been a lack of diligence on the part of the state in following up and providing discovery to the defendant in a timely fashion. As a result of the state’s actions and lack of diligence, the court grants defendant’s second motion for sanctions.”

Per Burke’s order, Heflin is to remain on GPS monitoring.

In February the Missouri Supreme Court appointed Judge John P. Torbitzky of the Eastern District of Missouri Court of Appeals to adjudicate the legal action by Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey to remove St. Louis circuit attorney Kim Gardner from her elected position as St. Louis Circuit Attorney.

The Soros-funded Circuit Attorney refuses to perform the duties of her position. The homicide rate and car thefts in St. Louis rival the numbers from any major city in a third-world country. Gardner refuses to prosecute criminals and releases dangerous criminals on the street. And at the same time, she throws out court cases because she says the police are racist.

Why a Veteran-Owned Freeze-Dried Beef Company Unabashedly Embraces an America First Worldview

The final straw was a horrific crime in February when repeat offender, 21-year-old Daniel Riley, who had been out on bail after violating his bond multiple times, struck teenager Janae Edmondson in a wreck.  The young teen volleyball sensation lost both of her legs as she was walking from a volleyball tournament with her parents in downtown St. Louis. Janee had a scholarship to play volleyball in college. Daniel Riley had violated his bond over 100 times and yet was still roaming the streets of St. Louis.

Gardner is so disliked that St. Louis City judges asked the state Supreme Court to be excluded from deciding whether to keep Kim Gardner on as Circuit Attorney. This frees them up to testify against Kim Gardner in her case.

* * * * * * * * * *

Once again — Here is a little more background on Kim Gardner.

In August 2018 Kim Gardner announced her attorneys will no longer accept cases from 28 different St. Louis City police officers. Gardner called it her “exclusion list” because they were racist.

Gardner did not tell the officers what they did to get on her list but they were being censored.

in 2019 Gardner refused to charge a drug dealer who was found with 1,000 opiate pills and 30,000 in cash because she didn’t like the cop involved.

And Gardner refused to charge the killer of a 7-year-old child despite a suspect’s confession in 2019.

Gardner lied about Governor Eric Greitens case, committed over 60 acts of misconduct in the case, and got away with it.

In 2020 Kim Gardner dropped the case against a suspect who shot another man in a traffic dispute in broad daylight.

In 2020 Kim Gardner also was caught on video lying about being harassed during a traffic stop!

Also in 2020 Kim Gardner released all of the rioters and looters from jail without charges in the violent St. Louis Black Lives Matter riots.

But this latest incidentin February was the last straw.

Corrupt Former FBI Agent William Tisaby Who Bungled Investigation into then Governor Eric Greitens PLEADS GUILTY of Evidence Tampering

by

Ex-FBI agent William Tisaby who led the bungled investigation into former Missouri Governor Eric Greitens pleaded guilty on Wednesday to evidence tampering.

Ex-FBI agent pleads guilty to tampering in withdrawn criminal case against pro-Trump @EricGreitens.https://t.co/KWADP8py88

— Alex Bruesewitz (@alexbruesewitz) March 23, 2022

The Gateway Pundit reported on Tisaby previously when he was charged.  Tisaby worked with Soros-backed St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner when he was involved in setting up the former governor.

Return of COVID Restrictions? Instead Of Complying, Here’s One Way To Be Prepared

John Solomon’s Just the News reported on this breaking development.

An ex-FBI agent who led the bungled investigation into former Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens pleaded guilty Wednesday to witness tampering in a deal that spared him from a trial and placed additional spotlight on the prosecutor behind the case.

William Tisaby appeared in a St. Louis Circuit Court and entered the plea to one count of misdemeanor evidence tampering and was sentenced to probation, which was immediately suspended. It was not immediately clear whether Tisaby was required to cooperate in any further investigation.

Tisaby had been facing trial on six counts of perjury and one count of evidence tampering in an indictment that accused him of hiding evidence and lying during the investigation into Greitens, a Republican who was forced to resign as governor after St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner charged him as taking a compromising photo of a woman he had an affair with.

The charges were dramatically dropped when Gardner admitted she did not have evidence the photo was taken and the woman testified she may have dreamed up the allegation.

Gardner has not been charged with criminal wrongdoing but has been accused by Missouri’s chief legal disciplinarian with violating dozens of attorney standards of conducts during the prosecution, including withholding exculpatory evidence. She faces a hearing on those allegations on April 11 and has denied wrongdoing.

A 2019 indictment accused Tisaby of lying during a deposition ahead of the Greitens’ trial and concealing notes taken during an interview with the former governor’s accuser. Prosecutors charged that Tisaby’s lies were “about matters which could substantially affect, or did substantially affect, the course or outcome of the Greitens case.”

Kim Gardner, the Soros-funded Circuit Attorney in St. Louis City, has a horrible record for adhering to the Constitution.  She was involved in multiple acts of misconduct and multiple false representations related to the entire case against Greitens.

They lied about Eric Greitens and took him out — one of the most popular governors in the country.
These are not good people.

This is developing news.
