Finally, a glimmer of common sense has emerged in the prosecution of Mark and Patricia McCloskey, the St. Louis couple who reportedly defended their lives and livelihoods from a hostile crowd as violence consumed wide swaths of America.
Missouri Governor Michael Parson (R) reaffirmed his promise to pardon the McCloskeys following a grand jury decision to indict the couple. (The Hill)
Parson said at a news conference on Wednesday that he “most certainly would” issue a pardon for the couple should they be convicted on counts of exhibiting a weapon and tampering with evidence brought against them over the June incident, according to The Associated Press.
“We’ll let it play out and see how this all comes out in the courts, but I stand by what I said,” Parsons continued.
The governor also suggested he was prepared to issue pardons for the couple back in July after circuit attorney Kim Gardner launched an investigation into the June 28 incident.
A grand jury in St. Louis indicted the McCloskeys on the charges earlier on Tuesday. The couple had already been charged with felony unlawful use of a weapon in July and the jury leveled the evidence tampering charge against the couple this week.

Help President Trump Stop Joe Biden [ACT NOW]
Thank Heaven common sense prevails over the McCloskey case and not make me lose faith in the US justice system. I’ve been waiting for POTUS to say or do something on their behalf before he came down with the virus. God bless Governor Parson for stepping up to the plate on their behalf.
god is too busy blessing; globalists and globalist puppet $oro$ and globalist puppet democrat criminal party and globalist puppet rino criminal party and globalist puppet fbi criminal organisation and globalist media and globalist puppet libby snow flake looters/rioters/arsonists/etc AND altar boy raping priests .
Watch out, you’ll wind up in a doctors office strapped in a chair suffering from depression so they can relieve you of some of your money too.
Not really! That is money deceiving them while on their journey. When did God tell you he was to busy doing anything? Think maybe you setting your own narrative!
Since WHEN is God too busy? you are confused.
Kim Gardener should be investigated for Conflict of Interest ,Racism, Illegally Legislating Law, Misuse of Office,Malfeasance and whatever else the McCloskey’s
Lawyers can find to charge her with………………
Compare globalist puppet $oro$ checking account with globalist puppet gardener savings account and you will understand why globalist puppet gardener is preaching the globalist agendas . . . . .
FYI: During the AZ Senate debate this past week during the Gun Control / 2nd Amendment discussions Democrat Mark Kelly admitted to multiple violations of the National Firearms Act by himself and his Father along with a long list of other State, Federal Military and International Fire Arms Laws!
1. Kelly stated his father purchased and gave him a Glock 9mm pistol as a present as he headed to the Gulf War. That’s a Felony as the NICS paper work asks that question and if his father had answered properly: “Yes” This is being purchased as a present, the FBI would have denied the purchase! It’s a Felony to purchase a weapon for someone else!
2. Kelly also stated he proudly carried the Glock pistol during the Gulf War. That’s against Military UCMJ, Status of Forces, and Geneva Convention agreements. The only weapons we US Military are authorized to carry are the US Weapons issued to us by the US Military. These actions are punishable by Military Courts Martial, Federal and International Law!
3. If Kelly as he stated actually did carry the Glock his Father purchased in Combat he violated International Firearms Exportation Laws by illegally taking the Weapon to a Foreign country.
4. Additionally when Kelly returned from the War how did he Legally Import the weapon given the facts that the weapon was not registered to him, and was never legally exported. Conclusion Kelly illegally smuggled the weapon back into the US. Another Felony!
This is all on video and Kelly’s got a lot of explaining as these actions are Felony’s with Jail time!
Sorry, but you can buy a gun and give it as a gift. The law about buying the gun for someone else is to keep people from buying guns for felons. There is no gun registration so the gun was not registered to his father. Soldiers have carried pistols to foreign countries since the dawn of time.
I am for your concern but you need to do some research so you are not wrong with the facts.
Who cares. Did he torch and burn down American cities. Did he mistreat and kill American citizens and our police officers!
Does he support them?
The Kelly’s are Democrats. So supporting police is a legitimate question.
Even globalist puppet $oro$, puppet libby snow flakes find themself needing to defend themself from other globalist puppet $oro$, puppet libby snow flakes .
The revolutionary patriots never registered their guns did they? And in fact they fought off the Brits who attempted to confiscate them at Lexington and Concord.
We don’t care what they have done before but if they are DemocRATS despite knowing what they stand for, they are corrupt!!
globalists and globalist puppet $oro$ and globalist puppet democrat criminal party and globalist puppet rino criminal party and globalist puppet fbi criminal organisation and globalist media and globalist puppet libby snow flake looters/rioters/arsonists/etc always commit crimes because they are never prosecuted .
I would be more worried about Kelly’s china connection an business deals. He is compromised along with quid pro joe.
Still wheres the Legal teams from the: NRA, Gun Owners America, USCCA etc to aid couple day 1 even under the table.
Geez
& they cry Gun rights etc & wont defend this couple
Bad PR & optics NRA & allies
Excellent!!! No way ANYONE should be thinking about jail for protecting your own private property!!
Soros and and Local DA should be going to jail!
globalist puppet, democrat criminal party can’t prosecute their cash cow, globalist puppet $oro$ .
Tell em Vladimir! Still won’t get it.
Why not force the AG to dismiss the indictment? Why put these people through the expense and emotional turmoil that comes with having to defend themselves in court. I hope they are found not guilty, and they sue the AG and her office into oblivion.
It is about time for the Rule of Law to stop protecting Felons and [prosecuting people just trying to protect their lives and property. Just look how close these protestors came onto their property and would have approached them both and God only knows what would have happened then. The McCloskey’s had the 2nd amendment on their side and now they have to face these false charges as the protestors of which there were many only 7-9 were charged with TRESPASSING? George Soros and a few other democratic radical liberals who pay for all the destruction that was done in these Democratic controlled cities should compensate for all the damage. Also I hope I am wrong but AG Barr has to step up to the plate now, but not for our President but for equal justice for all Law abiding American Citizens. And I hope AG Barr and John Durham indict each and every one of the people involved with the Fake Russia Hoax, Obama, Biden Susan Rice, James Comey, John Brennan, James Clapper, Andrew McCabe, Peter Strozk, Lisa Page, Hillary Clinton, Robert Mueller and all of Mullers investigating team of which most of them were Trump haters and donated to the DNC. Totally Biased in every way. Lets not forget Loretta Lynch who let Hillary slide on her Criminal Activity. Rosenstein, Andrew Weisman also. And charges for not protecting life and property should be made against all Mayors and Governors of States that allowed this carnage to continue day in and day out. Even after being offered help by President Donald J. Trump who they really hate and if the shoe were on the other foot and President Trump refused an aid request from them they would have been on the news media condemning him for what they had let continue on. There is in no way as a Taxpaying Citizen that these Politicians that Abetted these CRIMINALS should not go unpunished. TRUMP 2020
Show them their stupidity for being globalist puppet $oro$, puppet libby snow flakes .
It a sad day in America when rioters have more rigyhts than law abiding Americans. Put in the same situation I would have done the same thing as the McCloskeys. Protecting my home and family is my right. Thank God the common sense may prevail finally.
Thank god for; globalists and globalist puppet $oro$ and globalist puppet democrat criminal party and globalist puppet rino criminal party and globalist puppet fbi criminal organisation and globalist media and globalist puppet libby snow flake looters/rioters/arsonists/etc AND altar boy raping priests .
Thank you govenor! They should never have been indicted in the first place! If course he is a republican and usually they fight for what is right! Not all of them but the majority! Thank you govenor! Noiw I wish that crooked vile Kim Gardner would be disbarred because she is incompetent!
Not a fan of Governor Parson but I do agree with him on this issue. Which is one of the reasons I may hold my nose and vote for him. I am sure Galloway would not pardon this couple. However, I wonder if Gardener won’t let this hang over the McClosekey’s head forever and ever like they have done to Michael Flynn. If this is NOT brought to closure Soon, something needs to be done.
Any vote for a demonRat, is a vote for slavery over freedom. If the past few months of dictitorial lock downs & riots in blue states hasn’t got your attention, nothing will. Vote 100% red down ballot.
So glad to see justice. I would have done the same thing as the McCloskey’s! ✊Second Amendment!
The McCloskeys should not be having to endure this persecution in the first place. Kim Gardner is openly guilty of prosecution under false pretenses. If the Missouri State Bar Association was “on the ball”, they’d revoke all of her legal credentials for life.
globalist puppet $oro$, libby snow flake mccloskeys . . . . . .
Bill Barr needs to step in on every one of these corrupted Soros bought and paid for AGs. And a lawsuit against said AGs need to be filed right fucking now. Also Soros needs to be deposed of RFN.
They should have never faced charges in the first place instead they should have charged the BLM or Antifa crowd with menacing! When will this craziness stop and Law& Order make a stand??
F globalist puppet $oro$ and his libby snow flake mccloskeys .
This is TOTAL BS!I guess those involved in charging and prosecuting this couple have never heard of the SECOND AMENDMENT to the U. S. Constitution!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
globalist puppet $oro$ bribes are more important to the globalist puppet $oro$ puppet criminals that violated the constitution and prosecuted the globalist puppet $oro$, puppet libby snow flake mccloskeys .
THIS ILLEGAL RACE HATED ATTACK ON THIS COUPLE SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN BROUGHT TO THIS CONCLUSION AS THEY HAVE EVERY RIGHT AND MEANS POSSIBLE TO PROTECT THERE PROPERTY AND SELVES FROM THESE THUGS THAT BROKE INTO A PRIVATE AND SECURED AREA OF THERE HOME LOCATION AND THREATS MADE AGAINST THEM! THIS COUNTY A G NEEDS REMOVED FOR HER BIASED AND RACIST ATTITUDE HERE IN FAVOR OF THE ANTIFA AND BLM THUGS AND DISREGARD FOR THE LAW!
Where is the investigation into Kim Gardner ?
globalist puppet $oro$ bribes stopped the investigation into globalist puppet $oro$, puppet gardner .
Yep, The DOJ’s civil rights division should be on the AG’s a$$.
The governor just twisted the knife. Good.
The governor needs to pardon them and fire the da, a soros appointed lib. That travesty should have never happened. The leftbis cruising for another civil war.
globalist puppet $oro$, puppet barry soetoro appointed all the correct criminals to the correct positions to protect all their criminals .
You write like the President of Russia???
It’s amazing to me how the charge is “evidence tampering”. What is that about? I thought the entire dispute was about “brandishing” weapons in defense of their home. I also hate that this couple will have to enrich attorneys to defend them in court. This feckless, Soros-bankrolled DA is the diabolical cause of this entire situation. Yet Soros goes unindicted for causing so much chaos in our criminal justice systems in state after state.
Hungary and several other countries have extraditions for globalist puppet $oro$, globalist puppet $oro$ bribes the globalist puppet democrat criminal party and globalist puppet rino criminal party to not extradite or investigate globalist puppet $oro$, globalist puppet democrat criminal party don’t want to lose their cash cow . . . . .
The only evidence tampering I’m aware of is that of the crime lab. Mrs. McCloskey’s handgun was disabled (intentionally in order to use a a prop) and unable to fire prior to being confiscated by law enforcement. The crime lab discovered the weapon was inoperable and actually repaired the firearm to working order, thus it was tampered with by law enforcement!! If I remember right, the McCloskey’s had removed or altered the weapons firing pin. Her husbands AR15 however was functional from the git go.
should never of been charged with anything to start with
Should save them some legal fee’s and put an end to it now. That’s all these charges are about anyway. The way these people think is two lawyers big money, so let’s run them thru the system and release them of some. To hell with the constitution!!!
Amen, thanks Governor
Dirty rotten DA’s bought by Soros.
Thank you Governor for upholding the Constitution of our nation. I would advise that all involved should follow your lead sir.
Thank you Lord, for the good people of Missouri, & that they voted for their Governor Michael Parson. And thank you Lord, that Governor Parson, is a man of honor, & distinction, & has identified this entire travesty, for what it is. The only thing that the McCloskeys are guilty of is protecting, their lives, & their property. Kim Gardner, is a radical left wing puppet, backed by a lunatic socialist, that everyone knows would like nothing better, than to turn America into a third world country. Our eyes are watching, & our ears are listening, nothing is in the dark, of the past, everything is coming, into the light, for everyone to see. The only way that evil can exist, is for good people to do nothing. God Bless America, & All Americans.
After he pardons the McCloskey’s he should charge the soros backed dopes with corruption of justice, false arrest and anything else they can think up.
I am very glad to see this Governor planning on doing the right thing. It is so twisted that this couple who were simply protecting their own property, they were not walking around all over a community threatening people but instead doing their best with what they had to stop those who intended harm to them. If we cannot even defend ourselves our property from those whose minds are twisted and not able to think clearly, than this is not the country I thought it was.
Bout time!!
To stand in your own yard displaying your legally owned rifle and gun is a felony crime? If there is such a law it is unconstitutional and must be abolished.
And how much is it going to cost the McCloskeys, to defend their Constitutional right to protect themselves and their property from these “peaceful protestors” who invaded their property by breaking down a gate, and threatened them, not only with guns, but also intimidation of what they will do to them and their dog, that they will be living in their house. Anybody would protect themselves in the same way. But these were white people who have money, and the BLM/Antifa groups are going to do whatever possible to ‘bring them to their knees’.
A Missouri governor with some sense!!!!!~How refreshing; now that County Atty. should be fired for abusing her office and the state.
It seems some one in that state has some sense. They were protecting their own property. Since when is that a crime. It’s shameful that their states attorneys is so ignorant.
Whoever pushed these FALSE charges against these two people should be looking at the following.1) A long long jail sentence.2) Paying our massive amounts of money not only to the couple they attacked but to the people they have been stealing from by not doing their job as they should. 3) Banned from all aspects of the LAW for LIFE. 4)Banned from public office at all levels of Government be it elected or appointed for LIFE.
There we go! We need to rescue our country from the socialist clutches of the left and their henchmen.
The charges and indictment against the McCloskys are absurd. Soros’ Kim Gardner needs to be indicted for malfeasance in office. Nail this woman hard and watch other Soros’ prosecutors around the country who win elections think twice whether doing Soros’ bidding and being prosecuted is a good idea.
how could they have tampered with evidence in this case? the crime lab created a video where they had to disassemble then re-assemble Ms. McCloskey’s pistol in order to make it fireable, and functionality is a required part of the law under which they were indicted….if anything, the prosecution and the crime lab have tampered with evidence!
This case is so ridiculous. It should not be allowed to proceed. However, I’m glad that the governor is assuring the McCloskeys that they will be pardon, regardless of what happens. We need to vote all evil Democrats out of office before we lose our 1st and 2nd Amendment rights.
I would also hope that any/all charges are expunged from all police files. I would also hope that the McClockey’s get some range practice in. Their handling of weapons was a little scary.
Thank you Governor Parsons for standing up for our Constitution and common sense!
