The wife of the former Tennessee teacher accused of absconding with 15-year-old Elizabeth Thomas wants to end her marriage of 31 years, according to court filings.

Jill Cummins, who has pleaded with her husband to bring Elizabeth home, filed the documents last week, citing irreconcilable differences and alleging that Tad Cummins is "guilty of inappropriate marital conduct."

Only thing I can figure she could not find a really good divorce lawyer in her area of Tennessee.

“Irreconcilable Differences.”

“I thought about it for a while, but I just couldn’t accept my husband running off with a 15 year old girl.”

Actually, I suspect it has more to do with trying to understand and accept that her husband of 31 years stabbed her in the back and went looking for some 15 year-old trim.

I don’t care who you are, it must be unbelievably difficult to accept and deal with something so public and devastating. 31 years of marriage and then your spouse throws you under the bus for a child. FUQ you and me both. I can only imagine how devastating this must be for her.

GEEZUS H. CRIMANY! This is Tennessee for crying out loud. Bible belt. Southern values. Church going types. I imagine this must be a millstone around her neck.

Have some compassion, folks. Keep this woman in your prayers. The dude is a pedo. It ain’t her fault. She’s the forgotten victim in this drama.

Be cool. Don’t be a bunch of dicks.

Under Tennessee law unless they can prove “relations” took place he has committed no felonies. A thirteen year old can choose on their own volition to leave with a perfect stranger. It’s weird but it is the law.

Never said this was her fault was just wondering what took her so long to file.

Normal women would have dumped him the first week.

So unless you are a Duggar or a Clinton, you don’t stay with a child rapist.

I was thinking that myself. I know I’ll never do that, but Mrs. Deplorable would divorce me in a second...

Honestly, The shock must have thrown her.

Her whole world was just turned upside down and some people need some time to process it.

I’d kind of go along with Red Badger’s timeline.
