Matthew Ammel, who dated former senator Kyrsten Sinema while serving as her bodyguard, is demanding she pay his bond after his arrest. Ammel was jailed following an incident in which he trashed Sinema's home roughly a month ago. The extraordinary demand comes as the pair's relationship has collapsed into a legal dispute.
