KANSAS CITY, Mo. — Gov. Eric Greitens announced he will step down Tuesday and now there is an "agreement" on a pending charge against the governor.
"This is not the end of our fight," said Greitens as he announced his resignation.
After announcing his resignation, the storm over Greitens shifts to the courtroom.
Greitens is accused of using the donor list from a charity he started. The list was allegedly used to raise money for his campaign.
In a recent report, attachments and emails from campaign staffers show the donor list being shared. Those former staff members say Greitens ordered them to do it.
It now looks like the case against Greitens won't appear before a jury. A deal has been reached; its details won't be revealed until Wednesday.
With an agreement made, this still does not put Greitens in the clear.
Jackson County Prosecutor Jean Peters Baker is the Special Prosecutor in the invasion of privacy case.
"There was no blackmail, there was no violence, there was no photograph for blackmail," said Greitens months ago while denying the allegations.
The case involves an alleged nude photo for blackmail with a woman Greitens had an affair with.
Jean Peters Baker said the governor resigning doesn't change her view of the case.
The St. Louis prosecutor is expected to announce what the agreement with Greitens lawyers is sometime Wednesday.
