Six Weeks in, Gore Says St. Louis Circuit Attorney’s Office Has Stabilized
July 19, 2023
St. Louis Circuit Attorney Gabriel Gore says he has begun to build a prosecutor’s office that the city can be proud of.
“The office when I took over was a law office that was in distress,” Gore said Wednesday at a press conference marking nearly six weeks in office. “We have begun the process of restoring the office.”
Gore was sworn in as circuit attorney on May 30, after Kim Gardner resigned. She had been under fire for mismanaging the office, letting caseloads grow to a point that staffers faced contempt charges because they could not make court hearings.
