US Judge Allows Homewrecker Lawsuit Against Former Senator Kyrsten Sinema
A US judge has ruled that former Senator Kyrsten Sinema can face a lawsuit in North Carolina over her alleged relationship with Matthew Ammel, a former member of her security detail. Ammel’s ex-wife alleges that Sinema pursued him while knowing he was married, contributing to the breakdown of their marriage. She is seeking damages under North Carolina’s alienation-of-affection law, which permits spouses to sue a third party accused of interfering in a marriage. Sinema argued that North Carolina had no jurisdiction over her. However, the judge cited text messages she sent Ammel while he was in the state and allowed the case to proceed. Sinema has acknowledged the relationship, while the allegations in the lawsuit have not been finally determined by the court.
