‘Other Woman’ to Pay Up for Breaking Up Marriage

An alleged “other woman” was ordered by a jury to pay $1 million in damages for breaking up a marriage. “We hope this will send a message to the community and help preserve families,” said James Walker, Dorothy Hutelmyer’s lawyer in the rare alienation-of-affection lawsuit against Margie B. Cox, now Margie Hutelmyer.

A jury in the civil case reached the verdict Tuesday. The lawsuit contended that Margie Cox had an affair with Joseph Hutelmyer and destroyed the love and affection between the Hutelmyers.
