密苏里州州长被控侵犯隐私被逮捕提审

发布时间：2019-10-18 编辑：查字典英语网小编

Missouri Governor Eric Greitens has been indicted by a St. Louis grand jury on a felony charge of invasion of privacy.

The charge stems from a 2017 affair and allegations that he threatened to release a nude photograph of the woman, taken while she was blindfolded and her hands were bound, if she ever spoke publicly about the affair.

Greitens denied he resorted to blackmail, but admitted to an affair with his hairdresser after it was made public by a St. Louis television station last month, prompting St. Louis Circuit Attorney Kim Gardner to launch an investigation.

The indictment accuses Greitens of not only knowingly photographing the woman, but also transmitting the image “in a manner that allowed access to that image via a computer.”

The penalty for first-degree invasion of privacy in Missouri is up to four years in prison.

Greitens' office confirmed the governor was arrested and arraigned Thursday in St. Louis. He was later released on his own recognizance.

美国密苏里州州长格雷滕斯（Eric Greitens）被圣路易斯市大陪审团指控犯有侵犯隐私罪。

这项指控有关格雷滕斯2017年的一段婚外情，他被指以公开这名女性双眼被蒙、双手被绑的裸照相威胁，不许她公开谈论这段婚外情。

一家圣路易斯市的电视台上个月披露了格雷滕斯的婚外情和威胁。格雷滕斯否认有勒索行为，但是承认与这位曾是他理发师的女性有染。消息披露后圣路易斯市巡回检察官加德纳开始进行调查。

起诉书说，格雷滕斯不仅蓄意对这名女性拍照，而且还发送照片，让他人可以通过电脑看到。

在密苏里州，一级侵犯隐私罪可以被判处最多4年监禁。

格雷滕斯的州长办公室证实，格雷滕斯州长星期四被逮捕并被提审。他后来缴纳保证金后获释。
