FBI opens inquiry into Missouri GOP governor accused of blackmailing his partner in adulterous affai

FBI opens inquiry into Missouri GOP governor accused of blackmailing his partner in adulterous affair
Elizabeth Preza ELIZABETH PREZA 20 JAN 2018 AT 00:10 ET

The FBI has opened an inquiry into Missouri GOP Gov. Eric Greitens, CNN reports.

The probe comes as Greitens attempts to weather accusations he blackmailed a woman with whom he’s admitted to having an extramarital affair, CNN reports.

News of the FBI’s inquiry comes as Greitens pushes back against allegations he tried to blackmail a woman he had an affair with in 2015. Audio recorded by the woman’s now-ex-husband purports to depict the woman accusing Greitens of threatening to share a nude photo of her without her consent if she told people about their affair.

I don't how the FBI is involved ... possibly because the state police can't be trusted here, to conduct a thorough investigation?
