Gabe Gore appointed as new circuit attorney by Gov. Parson.

Missouri Governor Mike Parson has appointed Gabe Gore, a civil attorney and former assistant US attorney prosecutor, to replace the recently resigned Circuit Attorney Kimberly M. Gardner in St. Louis. Gore will take over an office that has been struggling with understaffing and a backlog of cases. He has pledged to focus on growing a dedicated staff while fostering relationships with the community and regional leaders. Gore will serve out the remainder of Gardner's term, which ends Jan. 1, 2025, but he has not decided if he will run for reelection.
