(CNN) In one of his last acts before leaving office Friday, embattled Missouri Gov. Eric Greitens signed into law a bill that criminalizes sharing or threatening to share "revenge porn" -- an offense of which he was accused. Under the new law, which passed overwhelmingly in the state legislature, both the "nonconsensual dissemination of private sexual images" and "threatening the nonconsensual dissemination of private sexual images" are felonies. The bill was one of 77 that Greitens signed on his last day. Greitens was accused in January of sexual misconduct and blackmail following an investigation by CNN affiliate KMOV.
