As per Ammel, Sinema would send Matthew racy pictures of herself and sent messages that ‘exceeded the bounds of a normal working relationship and were of romantic and lascivious natures,’ the lawsuit alleged, as per reports. The former Arizona politician even allegedly called a sexual position ‘boring’.
She also levelled allegations that her husband had to bring drugs for the lawmaker so she could ‘guide him through a psychedelic experience’ and he later got paid for the same. Ammel further alleged that Sinema got ‘handsy’ with Matthew at an Arizona festival.
Court records show that the Ammels have three children – Clara Ammel, born in 2011, Isla Ammel, born in 2013, and James Ammel, born in 2015. The complaint from Ammel notes that Matthew regularly accompanied Sinema to events, concerts, and festivals, which included a Greenday concert in Washington where one of their children was present as well.
Ammel has alleged that Sinema's actions destroyed the marriage, causing financial hardship and emotional distress. The case was reportedly filed in Moore County late last year and was moved to federal court this week.
