DETROIT, United States (AFP) – Philanderers beware: spouses caught cheating in Michigan could end up spending the rest of their life in prison.

The state’s appeals court recently ruled that extramarital flings can be prosecuted as first-degree criminal sexual conduct, a felony punishable by up to life in jail.

Nobody really expects prosecutors to go after cheating spouses. But the ruling has the local legal community twittering about its genuine intended target.

Adultery should be accountable and punishable, but prosecutable as a criminal offense seem a bit too far fetched.
