A lawmaker who led an investigation into former Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens[2] is releasing new information highlighting the political benefit Greitens[3] received from a book he wrote.

Rep. Jay Barnes provided a memo Friday to The Associated Press outlining how Greitens[4] used nonprofit grant funds to promote his book “Resilience” to conservatives as he was preparing to run for governor in 2015.

Earlier in the day, Washington University in St. Louis told the AP that an internal review found “nothing improper about the administration or use of the grant funds.”

Barnes says his panel has additional documents and testimony that the university did not possess.

Greitens[5] resigned June 1 while facing potential impeachment over various misconduct allegations.
