Judge approves lawsuit against former U.S. Senator Kyrsten Sinema under North Carolina's "homewrecker" law, according to the Associated Press (AP). The lawsuit, filed by Matthew Ammel's ex-wife, Heather Ammel, alleges that Sinema interfered with the marriage of her security detail member, Matthew Ammel, who was married at the time.
A federal judge ruled that Sinema can indeed be sued in North Carolina, despite claiming she has no connection to the state, as text messages she sent to Ammel while he resided in the state establish jurisdiction, reported the AP. The lawsuit seeks financial damages, claiming Sinema's actions led to the breakdown of Ammel's marriage. The couple had a "good and loving marriage" before Sinema's involvement, the lawsuit alleges.
