Man jailed for inability to pay $5,000 damages
In Rutland, Hayden Waterhouse, 45, has been in Orleans County Jail since last March for failing to pay a $5,000 punitive damages judgment for alienation of affection. Lt. Gov. Daley calls the case a flaw in the law. Waterhouse appeals to the Supreme Court and says he is innocent. He cannot pay, cannot work while jailed, and faces no easy release except a poor debtor's oath, which he rejects, hoping Gov Hoff can intervene. His wife, his second marriage, and forthcoming anniversary are noted amid his imprisonment.
