ST. LOUIS • Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens, who was swept into office in 2016 with a vow to clean up a corrupt state government, was indicted and booked Thursday on a felony invasion of privacy charge for allegedly taking and transmitting a non-consensual photo of his partly nude lover shortly before that campaign started.
It stems from a scandal that broke last month, in which Greitens was accused of threatening his lover with the photo — an allegation that isn’t mentioned in the indictment. Greitens has admitted having an extramarital affair, but has denied the rest.
When the people continually follow AND elect members of the TWO parties and get the same results it makes me wonder.
Two thoughts come to mind.
1.) One should probably be very skeptical about any politician who promises to clean up the corruption inherent in Missouri state politics.
2.) Missouri is the “Show Me State.”
Non-contact “offence?” One point higher for the governor on the Static-99R!
The state has to prove that the photo was non consensual. No way that will happen. This case will go nowhere.
Too funny!
Your move, Governor…

Also, apparently the Legislature doesn’t see it as the political stunt the Gov. claims: “Mo. lawmakers could begin Gov. Greitens impeachment process” (http://fox2now.com/2018/02/26/mo-lawmakers-could-begin-gov-greitens-impeachment-process/)
