Wife Cheats on Husband, Gets $40 Million in Divorce

[AC/DC]

BRIDGEPORT, Conn. — A judge has awarded the former wife of a multimillionaire businessman a divorce settlement worth more than $40 million, even though she admitted having affairs with both her rock-climbing guide and a man she met on a flight to China.


My faith in the judicial system erodes heavily everyday.

That's better than Marylands 50/50 law. Adultery is a $10.00 fine.

"$43 million, or 27 percent of the estate." Holy sh!t...

Wonder how much she'd get if she filled his lunch box with day-old chicken and taters. Maybe K_Jo knows.

I thought it was $25?

Just checked, it's still a $10 fine.

Vince,

Maryland's 50/50 applies to marital property. What one owns going into the marriage is still theirs and can include real property with a proper exlusion agreement. Which is better then some states where it's 50/50 no matter what.

I find this specific divorce as nothing more then funny and appropriate. After all this clown picked up with her while she was married to someone else why should he expect any different. I think that the husband is lucky the judge didn't pick up on that and give her a full share for him being the rich dummy that he is.

If he is in Leonardtown that would explain it

I married and divorced the wrong man

Not in Leonardtown, but either way, it's not a cost prohibitive fine.

Do that. To help him out show him the content of 10-501 under the Criminal Law section of the statute. Here it is;
