Parents ordered to pay thousands for destroying son's porn stash
OTTAWA COUNTY, MI – A Grand Haven couple has been ordered to pay $45,000 after disposing of their son’s pornography collection. David Werking, 43, sued his parents after they threw away what a judge called “a trove of pornography and an array of sex toys.”
U.S. District Judge Paul Maloney in Kalamazoo ordered Beth and Paul Werking to pay $30,441.54 to their son and $14,519.82 to his attorney. Maloney earlier granted the son’s request for summary judgment but delayed a ruling on damages.
David Werking had moved in with his parents in late 2016 after a divorce. When he moved out, he expected his parents to send his belongings to Indiana. A dozen boxes of pornographic films and magazines never showed up.
In an email, his father wrote: “Frankly, David, I did you a big favor getting rid of all this stuff.”
