JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) – An attorney for a legislative committee
investigating Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens says the House will subpoena his
campaign staffers.

Former Missouri Supreme Court Chief Justice Edward “Chip” Robertson Jr.’s
Wednesday pledge for more subpoenas came after an attorney for Greitens’
campaign criticized the House investigation for not doing enough to get the
campaign’s side of the story.

The committee on Wednesday released a report that said Greitens used a donor
list from a veterans charity for political fundraising. The committee chairman
says the list was taken without permission from the charity.

Greitens campaign attorney Catherine Hanaway on Wednesday said the committee
didn’t give the campaign a chance to be heard, although the House report
included attorney general depositions of people who worked on the campaign at
the time.

Greitens faces a felony charge of tampering with computer data related to the
claims.
