Blackmail alleged as Governor Greitens admits to extramarital affair
KMOV ^ | January 10, 2018 | Lauren Trager and John O'Sullivan

ST. LOUIS (KMOV.com) -- Governor Eric Greitens on Wednesday night confirmed to News 4 he had an extramarital affair, an admission a months-long News 4 investigation prompted.

In a recording obtained by News 4, a woman says she had a sexual encounter with Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens and that he tried to blackmail her to keep the encounter quiet.

The details were provided to News 4 by the woman’s ex-husband, claiming the sexual relationship happened between his now ex-wife and Greitens in March 2015. News 4 is not naming the woman and she has not made an on-the-record comment about the story.

According to the ex-husband, the recording was made just days after Greitens’ and the woman’s first sexual encounter. And also that Greitens took a photograph during the encounter to use as “blackmail” according to the ex-husband.

Democrat turned Republican in 2015 to run for Governor in 2016. He beat a Republican turned Democrat.

According to an article from July 2015, he had been raised a Dem, but changed party affiliation sometime prior to the Gubernatorial primaries.
