Her resignation is effective June 1.Gardner, the city's first African American chief prosecutor, tweeted her resignation letter to city residents at 3:44 p.m. In the letter, she drew a connection to her presence in power and the Missouri Legislature's efforts to take over both the circuit attorney's office and turn control of the city's police force back over to the state."It is not the first time the legislature has proposed bills that would take away our city's power -- that has happened in nearly every legislative session since I took office.
