ST. LOUIS – Gov. Greitens invasion of privacy trial date is set for May 14.

The governor was indicted on Feb. 22 for invasion of privacy which stemmed from his March 2015 affair.

According to court documents, Greitens knowingly took a photograph of a woman in a state of full or partial nudity without her knowledge and consent and in a place where a person would have a reasonable expectation of privacy. According to a news release, it is a felony if a person transmits an image "in a manner that allows access to that image via a computer." He's been charged with a Class D Felony.

The St. Louis Circuit Attorney’s Office said it does not have the photo in question, but plans to get it.
