James John Hamula v Joyce Anderson Hamula

Post by _I have a question »

Apparently...

“The Divorce case was filed last week in Utah County, Case No. 184100161.”

We simply invent new reasons, new justifications, new explanations. Sometimes we ignore the evidence altogether.” (Mathew Syed 'Black Box Thinking')

So, is it due to his cheating? Embarrassment due to the loss of G.A. prestige? It looks like he filed, so maybe he got tired of her not being able to forgive him (not that I blame her if he cheated). Anyone here know about their relationship? Anyway, maybe he will start talking and give us some insider information?

As a general authority he and his wife received the 2nd anointing. From the perspective of a believer (I assume the wife is still a believer and I think he is also.) what is the purpose of a divorce? She is still going to be stuck with the guy for eternity.

Is there a way we can see anything online about the case, just to confirm the authenticity?

When she gets to the Celestial Kingdom level 3, maybe she can trade up to someone with higher priesthood power, like Brigham or Joseph.
