Phone records blast holes in Eric Greitens’ conspiracy claims, attorney says

Sheena Greitens’ attorney says phone logs show no calls to Karl Rove, Mitch McConnell or the Associated Press to push out her allegations of child and spousal abuse by former Missouri governor and current U.S. Senate candidate Eric Greitens.
Phone records show Sheena Greitens didn’t talk to Karl Rove, Mitch McConnell “or any person working for these men” in the weeks before she made explosive allegations of child and spousal abuse against Eric Greitens, her attorney said Tuesday.

Sheena Greitens’ call logs and text messages for the period Feb. 1 through March 22 were subpoenaed by her ex-husband in an effort to show she lied about the abuse to undermine his campaign for U.S. Senate.

Helen Wade, Sheena Greitens’ attorney, wrote in a statement to The Independent that the subpoenaed records were turned over last week. The information contained, Wade wrote, contradict Eric Greitens’ assertions that his ex-wife conspired with his political enemies to lie in an affidavit made public on March 21.
