Gov. Eric Greitens has been subpoenaed as part of an investigation into whether he used a list of donors to his charity, The Mission Continues, in his campaign for governor.
The fact that Attorney General Josh Hawley had as part of the probe was already known. A Hawley spokeswoman confirmed in an emailed statement Thursday that the governor was one of the targets.
“We have issued a civil subpoena to the Greitens Group. Eric Greitens is the registered agent for , and Eric Greitens has accepted service of the subpoena through his counsel,” the statement read.
The governor reportedly set up The Greitens Group, which now lists its headquarters in a strip mall in Jefferson City about five miles from the Capitol, to keep his work with The Mission Continues and private ventures like his best-selling books separate. His attorneys did not immediately respond to a request for comment Thursday.
Greitens that his campaign received a list of Mission Continues donors and used it to raise money for the governor’s race. He paid a $100 fine for failing to report the list as a gift with a value of more than $100.
Hawley’s investigation focuses on consumer protection and charitable registration and reporting laws.
