MO GOV BUSTED FOR BLACKMAIL

A grand jury has indicted Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens on felony invasion of privacy charges following reports that he used a dirty photo to blackmail a woman he was having an affair with.

The indictment, which was handed down Thursday afternoon, is directly related to the blackmail allegations, according to the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

Greitens, 43, was taken into custody around 3:45 p.m. and booked at the St. Louis Justice Center.

He is accused of violating a Missouri statute, which makes it a felony to transmit images contained in photographs or film in a manner that gives someone access to that image via a computer or cellular device, the Post-Dispatch reports.

Greitens allegedly snapped a pic of his former hairdresser — whom he was sleeping with — on March 21, 2015 while she was bound, blindfolded and partly undressed. The woman claims he kept the photo and threatened to release it if she ever mentioned their relationship to anyone.

While the married republican has admitted to having the affair, he has strongly denied the blackmail allegations.

“In forty years of public and private practice, I have never seen anything like this,” Greitens’ lawyer, Edward Dowd, Jr., said Thursday in response to his indictment.

“The charges against my client are baseless and unfounded,” he added. “My client is absolutely innocent. We will be filing a motion to dismiss.”

SITTING GOVERNOR INDICTED

by Bob Walsh

A grand jury has announced an indictment of Missouri Governor Eric Greitens (R). The Democraps in the legislature are already calling for him to be impeached if he refuses to resign.

He is alleged to have taken some rather salacious photos of his married mistress without her knowledge or permission in an attempt to dissuade her from causing him grief over the relationship which he has admitted to.

The invasion of privacy charge is a felony. The asshole has denied all charges, thru his shyster. I hope they impeach him, remove him from office and throw his ass in prison.
