Description | ST. LOUIS — Former Missouri Gov. Roger Wilson pleaded guilty Thursday to misusing money involved in an illegal political donation made years after he left office, and the longtime Democratic stalwart apologized for his misdeed.
Wilson's guilty plea to a misdemeanor charge came the same day federal prosecutors announced an indictment against him and St. Louis lawyer Edward Griesedieck III, 53. The indictment alleged that Griesedieck had his law firm donate $5,000 to the Missouri Democratic Party and hid the cost in legal bills submitted to Missouri Employers Mutual in October 2009, when Wilson was interim chief executive. |
