Gardner acknowledged she failed to disclose evidentiary documents to Greitens' legal team, which she claimed had been provided to Greitens' lawyers in the 2018 criminal case.

Specifically, Gardner omitted a video recording and notes from a meeting she and her investigator, William Tisaby, conducted with Greitens' mistress. The withheld evidence hindered Greitens' ability to defend himself.

In an agreement with the Missouri Office of Disciplinary Counsel, Gardner acknowledged her conduct "was negligent or perhaps reckless, but not intentional."

"Yes, we had a process. But unfortunately, that process came up short," she said before adding the case was a "lesson."

The agreement and acknowledgment of wrongdoing must be approved by the Missouri Supreme Court within 30 days. It is unknown when the court may render its decision.

Greitens celebrated the agreement as full exoneration and vindication. "Today's groundbreaking decision reaffirms what we have known all along–Soros Funded prosecutor Ken Garner conducted a political witch hunt."
