Former bodyguard charged with $200K property damage at Sinema's home
Matthew Ammel, former bodyguard to ex-Senator Kyrsten Sinema, faces felony charges for allegedly causing over $200,000 in damage to her Cave Creek home. He is accused of throwing 22 paintings into a pool and smashing glass after she refused to post a video on X. The incident occurred on Aug. 30, but Sinema reported it on Sept. 3. Ammel was arrested on Sept. 17 and is currently on electronic monitoring. This criminal case coincides with a separate civil lawsuit in North Carolina regarding their affair.
