The ex-wife of Eric Greitens accused the former Missouri Governor of abuse during their nine-year marriage. Eric Greitens is currently fighting for full custody of their two children.
The attorney for Eric Greitens on Monday called the accusations of physical abuse and coercive behavior completely fabricated and baseless.
Sheena Greitens decided to drop the charges with the GOP primary approaching on August 2nd. Greitens is leading the GOP primary race in Missouri.
Sheena thought it would be a good time to accuse her former husband of abuse right before his political comeback. Nothing fishy here!
The Washington Times reported:
Former Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens, now a leading Republican Senate candidate, was physically abusive and demonstrated such “unstable and coercive behavior” that steps were taken to limit his access to firearms, according to new allegations from his ex-wife revealed in court records.
A sworn affidavit from Sheena Greitens and filed Monday is part of an ongoing child custody dispute in Missouri. A public affairs professor at the University of Texas, she sought divorce from Eric Greitens after a sex scandal which led to his resignation as governor in June 2018. She‘s now asking the court to move the custody case to the Austin area, in part to spare her children from renewed public attention as Eric Greitens tries to mount a political comeback.
Eric Greitens called the allegations “completely fabricated” and “baseless.”
“I am seeking full custody of my sons, and for their sake, I will continue to pray for their mother and hope that she gets the help that she needs,” he said in a statement issued from his Twitter account.
His attorney on Monday asked a judge to block the affidavit from public view, saying open access could cause “irreparable harm to his reputation and his candidacy.”
We reached out to the Greitens camp for comment.
