Gay NJ Governor Jim McGreevey to pay child support, but no alimony after divorce battle [video]
”Especially, in a matter as high profile as this, the court was disappointed that much of the testimony, particularly as it related to public figures within the State of New Jersey, and the dirty laundry associated therewith, needed to be aired in the public and in the press…. The McGreeveys clearly had agendas. As previously addressed, their anger seemed to override any ability to testify credibly or to be reasonable.”
Union County Superior Court Judge Karen Cassidy ruling in the bitter divorce case of formerly closeted gay Governor Jim McGreevey and his ex-wife Dina Matos. McGreevey is to pay $1,075/month in child support, and $109,000 to Matos, but not the $2,500/month alimony she sought from McGreevey. He is reportedly says he is a seminary student now and claims to be too poor to pay alimony. (Associated Press)
