St. Louis prosecutor to detective on McCloskey case: 'I suggest you quickly reassess this evidence'

Documents show lead detective initially refused to sign documents prosecutors wrote about the case

Author: Christine Byers (KSDK)

ST. LOUIS — The lead St. Louis police detective investigating the McCloskey case refused to sign at least two versions of court documents prosecutors drafted, according to a review of those documents obtained by 5 On Your Side.

In addition, police contend at least one person in the crowd was armed and another was wearing a bullet-resistant vest, after analyzing videos taken June 28, when the couple confronted protesters with guns.

The documents obtained by 5 On Your Side include an email Gardner’s Assistant Circuit Attorney Chris Hinckley sent to the lead investigator on the case, Sgt. Curtis Burgdorf. Hinckley emailed police the day before the McCloskeys were served with a search warrant, stating it needed to happen “now.”

“At this point, everything points to these weapons being real and loaded, but no one has asked or confirmed,” he wrote. “Come trial, they’ll say they were waiving around a BB gun and an air rifle.”

Hinckley also wrote to Burgdorf’s commander, Maj. Angela Coonce.

“Our office is receiving inquiries from the public and press about a warrant application and potential charges. We’ve thus far said the matter ‘remains under investigation.’ I’d really like to avoid pointing to a police follow-up request as the hold-up, but I won’t control the messaging if this goes on any longer. Please see what you can do to help this along. Again, I’m asking for priority on the firearms issue.”

The search warrant allowed officers to seize the guns the McCloskeys used during the encounter. The rifle Mark McCloskey used was intact when it arrived at the crime lab. The pistol Patricia McCloskey used was not, according to documents obtained by 5 On Your Side.

Hinckley ordered the crime lab to disassemble and reassemble Patricia McCloskey’s gun and signed a court document stating that it was “capable of lethal use” at the time she pointed it at protesters.

RELATED: St. Louis prosecutor ordered crime lab to reassemble Patricia McCloskey's gun

In a motion, Gardner wrote that the law allows prosecutors to say both of the McCloskeys guns were readily capable of lethal use, “even without proof that they were functional or loaded at the time of the incident.”

The McCloskey’s attorney, Joel Schwartz, said Patricia McCloskey’s gun was not functional because it was once used as a prop in a trial. The McCloskeys are both attorneys.

He said Gardner’s interpretation of the law is wrong.

“It’s a loose interpretation of the statute and the law requires a weapon to be operable at the time of an offense,” he said.

A spokeswoman for Gardner, a Democrat, said she could not comment on a pending case.

Hinckley also wrote the document the lead detective did sign, known as the probable cause statement.

But it went through at least two revisions after Burgdorf outlined 14 concerns he had about the document, 5 On Your Side has learned.

Among those concerns:

Hinckley characterized the protest as “peaceful and organized” and that it was “calling attention to racial inequities in the criminal justice system.” Burgdorf wrote that the evidence he gathered showed the protest was to call for the resignation of Mayor Lyda Krewson. The final document called it “a protest march.”

Hinckley wrote that Patricia McCloskey’s was “armed with a semi-automatic handgun.” Burgdorf wrote the phrase should read, “What appears to be a semi-automatic handgun.” Hinckley responded, in part, “You cannot be serious with this one. Again, this is really problematic.” Ultimately, the document read: “What was later determined to be a semi-automatic handgun.”

Hinckley called Mark McCloskey’s gun an “assault” rifle. Burgdorf called the word “assault” a propaganda term. Hinckley disagreed, but it was left out of the final document.

Hinckley wrote that the protesters passed through an “open gate” onto private property. Burgdorf said he didn’t know whether the gate guarding the private street was open when protesters went through it, but that, at some point, it was damaged. Hinckley responded: “Your points here are really problematic. It seems to go beyond oversight and into purposeful ignorance. I suggest you very quickly re-assess this evidence.” Ultimately the document Burgdorf signed reads, “protesters walked through a gate.”

Hinckley wrote that Mark McCloskey’s gun was “visibly loaded with an ammunition clip.” Burgdorf wrote that he would have to verify that detail because it wasn’t mentioned in his report or interviews with them. Hinckley wrote back “Seriously??!!” Ultimately, the document did not include the phrase Hinckley wrote.

Hinckley wrote that both victims, identified only by their initials, “feared that the defendant might fire her weapon due to her finger being on the trigger and her highly agitated demeanor.” Burgdorf wrote that the term “angrily” was subjective and he didn’t like it. Hinckley wrote, “It’s a fact and an element of the offense.” The final document did not include the word "angrily".

5 On Your Side also obtained a voice mail Hinckley left Burgdorf after he wrote his response to Burgdorf’s objections.

On it, he states: “Curtis, you need to call me back. I wrote a long email to you trying to ask a bunch of questions about whatever it is you said some was (expletive). Now we need to straighten this out because I’m about done with this crap. Call me back.”

Since the couple was charged July 20, Burgdorf’s investigation has continued, according to the documents.

He noted in follow up reports that at least one of the protesters was armed with a handgun, and another was wearing a bullet-resistant vest with the words, “Human Shield” on it.

Some of the phrases he was able to decipher from the footage collected by prosecutors from protesters included:

“You own a business. Your business is gone.”

“We coming back baby.”

“You ain’t the only (expletive) with a gun.”

“They coming back to your house.”

In another livestream video, Burgdorf wrote a man was heard saying, “I was in front so I was the one who opened the gate. The gate was broken after they pulled a gun. What law did we break? We keep guns there but not for show though. Not to look a certain way, but for use. If they would’ve shot then they would’ve been put down.”

The only thing Burgdorf wrote from what he could hear from the McCloskeys included Patricia McCloskey shouting “Go,” as she pointed her gun at demonstrators.

for anyone unaware the discussion continued in:
http://www...hread=86187&time=1595834910080
rather than this thread
(as the thread title more apt & clearer continuation of 1st thread)

to Renzo:
- there was no attempted lynching
- the gate does NOT make it worse than being in someone's fenced yard as that gate doesn't belong to them
- i hadn't seen campaign ad issue, however, it's responding to the Governor (& maybe Trump) attacking her about the incident (also included iin ad) so responding to it is a wash


to Rugian
- that is a poorly written article, & not sure what aspects you want highlighted

the:
"Hinckley ordered the crime lab to disassemble and reassemble Patricia McCloskey’s gun and signed a court document stating that it was “capable of lethal use” at the time she pointed it at protesters."
is the same bullshit insinuation they did in the first article (same news org)
that sentence fragment document is just quoting the crime statute word for word that they are charging the person with, that is not suspicious... there's no link to him sending to crime lab

some of those bullet point concerns seem pretty nit-picky...
-"don't call it an 'assault' rifle"... whatever, not like places advertising the weapon call it that or anything, right? (they do)...
-"“angrily” is subjective"... she's 100% clearly waving her gun angrily...
-& Hinckley was right about it being an open gate (& his statement says after reviewing videos, so it was not a guess)

& those alleged comments by protesters at end are after the couple is aiming guns at them so not sure why they would need noted in regards to whether couple committed any crime by aiming the guns

The thread we're in was posted first as has a clearer title.

"to Renzo:

Incorrect. The prosecutor is attempting to Lynch the McCloskeys.

"- the gate does NOT make it worse than being in someone's fenced yard as that gate doesn't belong to them"

The gate does make it worse because they broke it down.

"- i hadn't seen campaign ad issue, however, it's responding to the Governor (& maybe Trump) attacking her about the incident (also included iin ad) so responding to it is a wash"

Hack. She's fundraising off of persecuting the McCloskeys in an election year.

"& those alleged comments by protesters at end are after the couple is aiming guns at them so not sure why they would need noted in regards to whether couple committed any crime by aiming the guns"

Because they appear to have been armed as the McCloskeys claimed.

Armed and rowdy mob "casually" walking through a closed gate on a private drive and then trampling through a private yard.

That is more than enough to justify walking outside, armed, and asking them to leave.

"Portland sees largely peaceful night of protests with more than 1,000 demonstrators as forces withdraw from city"

Portland protests remained largely peaceful Friday night as over a thousand demonstrators gathered in front of downtown's courthouse, just days after federal officers withdrew from the city.

Usually a hotspot for violent clashes with law enforcement, demonstraters instead congregated outside of Mark O. Hatfield Federal Courthouse in Oregon, with balloons, flags, and painted signs chanting "Black Lives Matter."

Given the amount of omission bias that the media engages in to smear Trump, we'll never know either way.

Also, I didn't even see your earlier response to my first post. Firstly, I wasn't asking you to respond to any part of that article; I post things for the benefit of the board, not just you.

Secondly, the back and forth proves that the DA's campaign against the McCloskeys is being driven by ideological bias. Among other things, the total mischaracterization of the nature of the protest demonstrates that the DA is working off a preconceived narrative that is detached from reality.

Thirdly, if you work in any sort of prosecutorial/law enforcement capacity and don't know why the term "assault rifle" is inappropriate for this case, you deserve to be fired.

Fourthly, what is your basis for affirming that the gates were open? If the lead detective can't say as much, then what's your evidence?

Fifthly, given the wave of violence that we have seen across the country with these protests, combined with the fact that they were bona fide trespassing on private property, combined with their use of abusive language towards people living in the neighborhood, it's entirely reasonable for the McCloskeys to have believed that their lives and/or property is in danger. And yes, in Missouri you have a right to defend your property from those who would destroy it.

I'm sorry you apparently have a massive problem with people who have the audacity to defend themselves against the mob, but the McCloskeys acted appropriately given the circumstances.

For many years, I worked at a bookstore nearby, and it was a lovely place to go for a stroll on my lunch break, because there were virtually no cars. The now-smashed gate directly adjacent to the McCloskey’s driveway was frequently left unlocked."

"now cite any claims or evidence of lock-picking"

It doesn't have to have been picked. They could have broken it down (and the way the guy is holding it open suggests this possibility). Also, it was clearly marked as a private entrance and with no trespassing. You can't legally enter someone's car/home just because the door is unlocked either.

how does it suggest that possibility? the way he's holding is exactly how a person might hold a door open (also... how polite that rioter is)

what is hard to believe about it not being locked? maybe residents find it annoying to lock/unlock every time they walk through it, wouldn't you? (plus no reason to believe the blogger is lying)

doubtful it's a high-crime area, the giant houses on opposite side of road have no sidewalk gate at all (or even fencing guarding the fronts of the houses)

---

"Also, it was clearly marked as a private entrance and with no trespassing"

not super clearly... & there will be no feel of trespassing as you would have if entering someone's home or car (or fenced yard)... you even hear someone yell back "sidewalk" to Ted (not clear the words surrounding it, but i see only one context to counter Ted w/ the word "sidewalk"... you are arguing you -aren't- trespassing - even if wrong)

"also lyin' Ted's lies suggest they know they need more than just the trespassing in a private neighborhood"

There's no evidence of lies from McCloskey and plenty of evidence of lies from the prosecutor.

Also, they may not need to rely on self-defense. She will argue that her weapon was not "readily capable of lethal use." The burden is on the prosecutor to prove this element of the offense. The prosecutor will probably not be able to do so. He will argue that he did not exhibit his weapon in "an angry or threatening manner." He's got a good chance of prevailing on this point. Here again, the burden is on the prosecutor to prove this element of the offense.

Assuming the prosecutor can prove both of these elements, they are still unlikely to be found guilty because they can assert the affirmative defense of self-defense. But keep licking the boots of the prosecutor we know has lied and engaged in unethical behavior by attempting to raise funds in an election year off the case.

McCloskey most likely believed the gate had been broken when they started trespassing. He probably saw it in a broken state after the incident and assumed they broke it when entering. That's would be a reasonable assumption for him. The prosecutor has told outright lies repeatedly.

"
The McCloskeys have filed at least two “quiet title” suits asserting squatter’s rights on land they’ve occupied openly and hostilely — their terms — and claimed as their own. In an ongoing suit against Portland Place trustees in 2017, the McCloskeys say they are entitled to a 1,143-square-foot triangle of lawn in front of property that is set aside as common ground in the neighborhood’s indenture.

It was that patch of green protesters saw when they filed through the gate. Mark McCloskey said in an affidavit that he has defended the patch before by pointing a gun at a neighbor who had tried to cut through it.
