St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner has reached an agreement with the Missouri Office of Disciplinary Counsel in which she acknowledges mistakes in her handling of the prosecution of former Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens, but won’t face severe penalties for those mistakes if the agreement is approved.

The joint stipulation agreement (pdf) states that Gardner, a Democrat who was ushered into office with support from billionaire George Soros, mishandled the case against Greitens, a Republican.
