Man Sues Estranged Wife For Return of Donated Kidney

Richard Batista, 49, is suing his estranged wife, 44-year-old Dawnell Batista, for the return of a kidney he donated to her in 2001 or the sum of $1.5 million. After discovering that his wife had an affair with her physical therapist in 2003, Mr. Batista lost that loving feeling and now wants the organ back. "I saved her life and then to be betrayed like this is unfathomable. It's incomprehensible," he told the Post. "She engaged in an extramarital affair and refused to go to marital counseling and reconciliation."

    If I had to guess, he's probably suing mostly out of hurt and spite, just to mess with her. Unfortunately, he's wasting my tax dollars making his stupid point.
