Divorce and Petty Behavior

No, I'm not the one getting a divorce, but a member of my family is, and his wife either stole or destroyed most of his clothing while he was at work one day, leaving him with almost nothing to wear and winter on its way. Now the rest of the family is scrambling to provide for him before the severe cold weather hits. She took everything from their home, including the bed, all the chairs, most of the furniture, all the money and now they have to go to court to settle everything and things don't look good for him there either. I just don't understand how one person can be that petty and still get away with it in a court of law? I guess I'm just curious if anyone else has had to go through this sort of behavior and what you had to do to overcome it?

Wow that is pretty low down to take the mans clothes..
I feel for him.
I do know that divorce shows the absolute worst of a person in some cases.
When I got divorced, I got away and that was that. Never had anything but my backpack on me and my most important ..my baby son.

Yeah, it is pretty low as she has no use for men's clothing at all. It was just another way to get back at him. I'm glad your divorce was much easier than that. Your baby son was definitely the most important thing you could have escaped with.

@Novelangel It was a dangerous situation Kristie, so getting away was best and never looked back..nothing to gain but danger to me and my baby son. See, that is why I get mad when I hear things like this because good guys seem to get all the bad stuff happen to them..the bad guys get away with everything bad.She wont have any blessing for doing those things to him.

@TiarasOceanView Sorry about making light of your situation. That was not my intent at all. (I just re-read what I'd replied to you, and thought I sounded pretty glib.) You are quite right about her not getting any blessing from this. It's just wrong all the way around...even though the guy in question has really poor taste in women. He says that now he is going to stay away from them altogether.

That would be the ideal situation, to divorce in such a way as to not create a horror story from it. Unfortunately it doesn't go that way often I guess.

That is because the court system is on the side of the woman all the time no matter what.

I agree with this statement. I think his wife faked some crocodile tears in the courtroom, caused a commotion and now they have to go back to court again in the near future. She's probably going to get everything he has and he seems to have no defense from it.
