A top Republican candidate for a U.S. Senate seat representing Missouri was physically abusive, his former wife said in court records made public on March 21.
Former Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens “knocked me down and confiscated my cell phone, wallet and keys so that I was unable to call for help or extricate myself and our children from our home,” Sheena Greitens wrote in one of the documents, entered as part of a child custody case in Boone County court.
