The governor of Missouri has been indicted and taken into
custody for circulating photographs of his bound and partially nude lover,
local media reported Thursday.
Governor Eric Greitens was arrested Thursday afternoon on
the first floor of Carnahan Courthouse in St Louis, according to an eyewitness
report by a journalist from the St Louis Post-Dispatch.
Greitens was charged with invasion of privacy which was
apparently linked to media reports last month that he had allegedly threatened
to transmit photographs of the woman with whom he was having an affair.
The governor was charged Thursday after it was alleged that
he had followed through on the threat and transmitted the photographs, the
Post-Dispatch reported.
Missouri law states it is a felony to take a nonconsensual
photo and distribute to another person, according to a statement from the
office of St Louis Circuit Attorney Kimberley M Gardner.
“As I have stated before, it is essential for residents of
the city of St Louis and our state to have confidence in their leaders,”
Gardner said.
The crime carries a sentence of up to four years in prison.
Greiten has admitted the affair which happened around the time he began his
2015 campaign for office, when he switched from being a Democrat to a Republican.
He has, however, denied he threatened to circulate the photos.
This man sef!
That's how it was alleged that he slapped his mistress in the same hospital his wife was giving birth.
It could be a setup too; punishment for cross-carpeting...
But looking at the above photo, where his wife defended him following the slap scandal, he is the poster child of guilt.
