Prosecutors Can See Rockefeller Divorce Records

Slideshow: Who Is Clark Rockefeller?

BOSTON (AP) ― Prosecutors have won the right to see some of the marital records of the man who calls himself Clark Rockefeller and his now ex-wife.

The records would not become public but could be used as evidence for a grand jury now considering whether to indict him on charges he kidnapped his 7-year-old daughter.

Authorities say Rockefeller is one of many aliases for Christian Gerhartsreiter -- a German national now considered a person of interest in the disappearance of a California couple in the 1980s.

A judge on Tuesday granted a motion by prosecutors to see Rockefeller's sealed separation agreement and divorce decree.

Rockefeller's multiple identities became public last month, after he was arrested for allegedly kidnapping his daughter in Boston. His defense claims his marriage to the girl's mother was never valid, so their custody agreement cannot be enforced.
