Well, this is going to be interesting.

How much privacy can one expect to have on a shared computer?

The legal wrinkle is that he used her password to get into her email. If she gave that to him willingly, does the prosecution have a case?

I like one of the comments about using a shared computer and a shared wife...

Yeah, this is insane.  I can't believe it's going to court.  

My wife and I have separate computers, but we still know each other's passwords.  I wouldn't like her reading my emails without permission, but I'd be hard-pressed to see how it's a felony.

Oakland County Assistant Prosecutor Sydney Turner said the charge is justified.

She is trying to hold on to the alimony that she would forfeit completely if she ever cheated, according to the pre nup.

Which is the only reason to fight it.

Golly gee, someone's using the U.S. legal system as leverage for their own financial gain instead of legitimate redress for crimes?  Say it ain't so.  Probably why there's billions of cases waiting to be heard and trials take forever to finish.

I heard a story about this on the news this morning. I thnk it is bullshit also. The fact that struck me was the argument about whose computer it was. She says it was a gift from him. He says it was a family computer. For some reason it makes a difference.

None of this would be an issue if women weren't allowed to read or write.
