Given all the recent media attention surrounding the recent Schwarzenneger/Shriver split, another wrench has been thrown into the mix. Did Arnold Schwarzenneger use tax payers' money to cover up his many affairs?
According to this article, a criminal investigation has been initiated to determine the validity of the claims. A veteren law enforcement officer, William Taylor, allegedly made said claims to the National Enquirer. Taylor states that Schwarzenneger "...used California Highway Patrol officers and vehicles to drive young, scantily-clad women to the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Sacramento on a regular basis."
He also claims that "...much of the hotel and the governor's staff knew what was going on but that they were all too scared to speak out or do anything about it as Schwarzenegger had intimidated staff so much that they weren't even allowed to make eye contact with him."
What is also interesting is that Schwarzenneger gave Mildred Baena, the housekeeper who worked for the family and eventually had a "love child" with Arnold a $65,000 down payment on Baena's family home in Bakersfield, California, to secure a roof over his son's head. From an Orange County divorce lawyer's perspective, the question raises concerns as to if said $65,000 was a misappropriation of community property funds. Maria Shriver likely did not know about this contribution. We can only speculate.
At any rate, I'm sure more dirty laundry and drama will be revealed from this high profile split. It's only a matter of time. This is why hiring an Orange County divorce lawyer is important as you want to ensure that your legal rights are protected.
