The MSN article is really shitty compared to others, like the NYT one which goes over more details.

woman marries woman and wants to adopt woman's child

woman who is bio parent says no, for whatever reason

woman who is stepmother keeps trying to push for adoption

leads to divorce

ex-stepmother goes to space

accesses ex wife's personal bank account

ex bio wife says why the f is my ex accessing my personal bank account?

ex stepmother says it's to check and see if bio mom has enough money to pay child care

She accessed someone else's personal bank account. It wasn't a joint, and they aren't legally married, so she's still wrong. Also, she is not the parent or guardian of bio mom's child, so it's not really her LEGAL problem to worry about whether or not bio mom has money to pay for child care.

Also lmao @ always putting on the canned "has an accomplished military career…" when officers or senior NCO's break the law.
