'Homewrecker' law: Former Senator sued over alleged affair

Former Arizona Senator Kyrsten Sinema is facing a civil lawsuit in North Carolina from a woman who alleges the former lawmaker “interfered” in her 14-year marriage.

It's called the Alienation of Affection law, but it's also known as the "homewrecker" law.

North Carolina is one of just seven states with laws on the books.

Daily Mail's Cameron Arcand joined Mike Pache to discuss details of the lawsuit.

MORE INFO:
The plaintiff, Heather Ammell, filed the suit in a North Carolina court seeking more than $25,000 in damages. The legal action cites a rare, century-old "alienation of affection" law still recognized in that state, which allows a spouse to sue a third party for interfering in a marital relationship.

According to the complaint, the alleged affair began in 2022 after Ammell's husband, Matthew Ammell, was hired as Sinema’s personal security detail. Heather Ammell claims she discovered the relationship through messages on the encrypted app Signal, which allegedly included explicit photos and conversations.

The lawsuit further alleges that Sinema used campaign committee funds to pay for the "romantic and lascivious" affair. According to the filing, Sinema allegedly paid for international travel to Europe, trips to Boston and California’s wine country, and expensive outings including the Taylor Swift Eras Tour in Miami and a U2 concert at the Las Vegas Sphere. The complaint states the pair drank Dom Pérignon in Cindy McCain’s private suite during the Las Vegas event.

The suit also claims she told Matthew Ammell to bring MDMA on a work trip so she could "guide him through a psychedelic experience."
