A judge in Phoenix ruled on Friday that former U.S. Senator Kyrsten Sinema can be sued under North Carolina's 'homewrecker' law. The litigation stems from allegations regarding a romantic relationship between Sinema and a member of her security detail, Matthew Ammel.
While Sinema has publicly acknowledged the relationship, she had previously argued against the legal viability of the lawsuit. The court's decision allows the case to proceed, marking a significant legal development in the application of North Carolina's alienation of affection statute to the former senator.
