"Funny" is not really the word I would use to describe this situation but "strange" might be. Suspicious of an affair, a husband checked his wife's email and found out that she was indeed doing the horizontal mambo with a previous abusive husband.

So we all have our crosses to bear. Seems like that would just be the end of the story yes?
No. The husband was charged with a felony and if convicted could face up to five years in prison.
uhwhat
I wonder what the prosecutor is thinking or if there is some other personal animus here. The wife can take half in a divorce but the husband isn't supposed to know if someone else has been shaking her tree??? confused

A Rochester Hills man faces up to 5 years in prison -- for reading his wife's e-mail.

Oakland County prosecutors, relying on a Michigan statute typically used to prosecute crimes such as identity theft or stealing trade secrets, have charged Leon Walker, 33, with a felony after he logged onto a laptop in the home he shared with his wife, Clara Walker.

Using her password, he accessed her Gmail account and learned she was having an affair. He now is facing a Feb. 7 trial. She filed for divorce, which was finalized earlier this month.

Legal experts say it's the first time the statute has been used in a domestic case, and it might be hard to prove

"It's going to be interesting because there are no clear legal answers here," said Frederick Lane, a Vermont attorney and nationally recognized expert who has published five books on electronic privacy. The fact that the two still were living together, and that Leon Walker had routine access to the computer, may help him, Lane said.


"When the snows fall and the white winds blow, the lone wolf dies but the pack survives."
Winter is Coming

Now this is the Law of the Jungleā€”as old and as true as the sky; And the wolf that shall keep it may prosper, but the wolf that shall break it must die.
As the creeper that girdles the tree-trunk, the Law runneth forward and back; For the strength of the Pack is the Wolf, and the strength of the Wolf is the Pack.
