Judge unseals Gallego divorce filing that has hovered over Arizona senate race. Didnt have the dirt that Lake hyped

Both parents, the court found, recognized “the love, devotion and dedication of the other to the minor child,” according to the records.

One divorce lawyer in Arizona described the filings as an amicable split by the couple. Even Yavapai County Superior Court Judge John Napper, who ordered the documents unsealed, has described the case as “one of the most garden variety divorce files I have ever seen.”

That reality is a far cry from what Gallego’s GOP rival in the race, Kari Lake, has hyped as an explosive and potentially damaging revelation less than a month before the election.

In a joint statement released after the documents were unsealed, Ruben and Kate Gallego demanded an apology from Lake, who ran ads deriding the Arizona congressman as a “deadbeat dad” who “abandoned his family” shortly before Kate Gallego gave birth to their son.
