The former FBI agent hired by Missouri prosecutors to investigate disgraced ex-governor Eric Greitens was indicted Monday on charges of evidence tampering and perjury.
The agent, William Don Tisaby, faces six counts of perjury and one of tampering with physical evidence in the Greitens case, according to court documents reported by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Tisaby is accused of lying under oath about matters “which could substantially affect, or did substantially affect” the outcome of the widely publicized blackmail case against Greitens in 2018.
St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kimberley M. Gardner hired Tisaby to lead the investigation into Greitens. The indictment accuses Gardner of failing to report Tisaby’s lies.
The former governor was first charged with blackmailing his then-mistress and a separate campaign finance violation in 2018. Though the special prosecutor in the case cleared Greitens’ charges that year, the governor ultimately chose to resign after the messy public court battle.
For sure this proves Trump is innocent of obstruction and collusion.
The FBI is really having a hard time living up to the old Quinn-Martin, Efrem Zimbalist Jr. mythology these days. When Trump isn’t trashing them on Twitter, they’re busy tripping over their own dicks with guys like Tisaby and Strozk.
So what did the investigator LIE about? Which evidence did he tamper with? Otherwise, Greitens STILL looks like a low life cheating scumbag…
The rehabilitation of Greitens’ image is in full swing. The building narrative isn’t easy to miss: Greitens didn’t do anything wrong. It was a partisan takedown with evidence made up by Gardner and Tisaby. Expect Greitens to be making his return to public soon with a run for office to follow. Greitens was supposed to be the GOP’s new golden boy; they aren’t going to give that up without a fight.
