Houston Millionaire Adopts Girlfriend

Did a search here and nothing came up.

I'm at work right now so I don't have the time to research for updates, as this story is a bit old. Again, this story is a bit old but it can have legal ramifications, as in other men wanting to do this for similar reasons, so I thought I'd share it here.

www.chron.com...

I understand that, ultimately, a marriage is a legal arrangement, but this guy took it to the next level. I'm on the side of the judge on this one in that the whole thing is pretty surreal. It's pretty obvious that he did it to "protect his assets" , because of his legal issues, so what do you guys and gals think?

Questions, comments, concerns?

After reading the article, and learning about the pending vehicular homicide trial against him, I have to wonder if he adopted her so that they can't subpoena her to testify against him. I know they can't make a spouse testify against the other. Is it the same for a child?

Actually, if that were the reason, he could have just married her instead! Must be access to the trust fund money! Sneaky, eh?

I guess he can ask her "Who's ya daddy?" and get a literal answer...
