The indictment said Greitens \u201ctransmitted the image contained in the photograph in a manner that allowed access to that image via a computer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Greitens was taken into custody in St. Louis and released on his own recognizance, Ryan said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The woman told her husband, who was secretly taping the conversation, that Greitens took the compromising photo of her at his home and threatened to use it as blackmail if she spoke about the affair. A news release from Gardner says it is a felony if a person transmits an image \u201cin a manner that allows access to that image via a computer.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Messages seeking comment from Greitens and his attorney were not immediately returned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Greitens has repeatedly denied blackmailing the woman, but has repeatedly refused to answer questions about whether he took a photo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A St. Louis grand jury has indicted Missouri Gov.
