Meet Gwendolyn Goeke
Becoming a judge has been a career goal of mine for a very long time. Since graduating from the University of Missouri School of Law in 1997, I have served the citizens of St. Charles County for 27 years. Most of those years have been spent in law enforcement as an assistant prosecuting attorney. My time as a prosecutor has been spent prosecuting domestic violence, sex crimes, and child abuse cases. In addition, for 15 years I was assigned to St. Charles County's award winning treatment court, specifically handling cases involving defendants with substance abuse and mental health issues.
I am proud to call St. Charles my home. My husband Jeff and I are raising 3 children here in O'Fallon, where they attend school in the Fort Zumwalt School District. We are active members of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary Parish. In our spare time we enjoy spending time with family, coaching youth sports, and watching our kids participate in the activities they love. Being a part of the St. Charles County community has enriched our lives in so many ways.
I would be truly honored if the citizens of St. Charles would grant me the privilege to continue serving this great community by electing me Associate Circuit Judge in 2024.
