Circuit Attorney Adds Top Attorney to Prosecution Team in Bar:pm Case; Defense Calls Case 'a Joke'
July 25, 2024

ST. LOUIS — Prosecutors said they intend to bring the case against the owner of Bar:PM to trial a week after defense attorneys filed a motion to sanction the circuit attorney's office over the case.


Prosecutors from Circuit Attorney Gabe Gore's office and attorneys for bar owner Chad Morris appeared in court Thursday, nearly eight months after a police officer crashed into a bar and Morris was arrested for alleged physical altercation with one of the responding officers. During the hearing, prosecutors said they intend to bring the case to trial but said they aren't sure if Ramelle Wallace, one of the officers at the center of the case, will appear as a witness.
