Gore Says He Has Cleared Backlog of Thousands of Cases Awaiting Charges in St. Louis
June 3, 2025

St. Louis Circuit Attorney Gabe Gore says his office has cleared a backlog of nearly 7,000 cases that were awaiting charges.


“Really, the story of the last two years for this office is a story of community coming together and collaborating to address a situation that had reached a crisis point,” Gore said Tuesday at a news conference marking two years in office.


Then-Gov. Mike Parson appointed Gore to the circuit attorney post in May 2023 after Kim Gardner resigned under pressure. He won a full four-year term in August.
