ST. LOUIS The police department said Tuesday it will open an investigation into perjury allegations against the private investigator who led the now-dismissed felony invasion of privacy case against Gov. Eric Greitens.
Schron Jackson, a police spokeswoman, said in an email Tuesday that the department would open an investigation after officers met with Greitens' defense lawyers Ed Dowd and Scott Rosenblum.
Dowd had said in a statement earlier that the defense planned to file a police report that private investigator William Don Tisaby lied under oath "about his methods and the evidence he collected."
"I have a lot of confidence in the St Louis Metropolitan Police Department, and I am sure they will get to the bottom of the misdeeds and illegal activity in this case," according to a statement attributed to Dowd.
