A Missouri judge is advancing an “indirect criminal contempt” allegation against St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner and one of her assistants.

On April 27, Circuit Judge Michael Noble conducted a 30-minute hearing to address why Gardner and Assistant Circuit Attorney Chris Desilets failed to attend two proceedings in a case involving the wounding of an 11-year-old girl.
