This week a Superior Court judge in North Carolina ordered a Texas man to pay $8.8 million to the jilted husband of a North Carolina woman with whom the Texas man had been having an affair. The award represented $2.2 million in compensatory damages and three times that in punitive damages, the Herald Sun of Durham reported. The Kings married in 2010 and have a 5-year-old daughter, according to court records. North Carolina is one of a few states where jilted spouses can sue affair partners. Huizar's attorney, Cheri Patrick, says the Kings' marriage was damaged before Huizar met the wife at a BMX show.
