St. Louis, Missouri has had a democrat mayor since 1949. The previous Soros-backed district attorney, Kim Gardner, finally resigned in May 2023 after a serial criminal who had violated house arrest 51 times caused a teenage girl to lose both of her legs. Read that whole story here.
Yet since Gardner’s departure, criminals are still able to roam free in St. Louis. Example:
St Louis driver, 22, who killed two Drake fans in horror crash as they left concert is FREED on $20k bail
Victims Laticha Bracero and her daughter Alyssa Cordova
From The Daily Mail:
“Horrific surveillance footage captured the moment a mom and daughter were fatally ran down by a speeding motorist running a red light – who has since been released on bail.
Laticha Bracero, 42, and her daughter Alyssa Cordova, 21, were leaving a Drake concert in St. Louis, Missouri on February 14 when driver Monte Henderson, 22, allegedly plowed into them at the intersection. Two other teen girls and a 61-year-old woman were also injured in the crash, which saw Henderson collide with several other vehicles as he blew through the lights.
Free on bail: Perp Monte Henderson
Police say he was speeding at over 70mph when he allegedly caused the tragedy.
However, Judge Annette Llewellyn ignored a probable cause statement arguing he is a danger to the community, allowing him to be freed on a $20,000 bail, according to STL Today.
Judge Annette Lewellyn
Reported court records showed he was freed on Friday morning after posting 10 percent of his $200,000 bond. He is facing two counts of involuntary manslaughter and armed criminal action in the deaths of the mother and daughter.
Cops say he blew through the stop lights on Olive Street in the center of the city, with the footage showing the red light at the same time he sped past the intersection in his Jeep Grand Cherokee. He was seen travelling at a high rate of speed before initially colliding with the front bumper of another car, which led him to careen into Bracero and Cordova.
Bracero was pronounced dead at the scene, and Cordova died shortly after being rushed to hospital, police said.”

Just another reason to avoid large, democrat-run cities that favor defunding their police. And cities with Soros-backed district attorneys who coddle criminals. Your life may depend upon it.
