How bad is this play by villain?

He turned a double gutter with an A overcard. He could represent a big hand while trying to get the CO or any bigger A out.

Thanks bernie, that's it! I did not notice the "double" gutter until I read your post. I will punish myself by not posting for a period of 48 hours...

Preflop: Hero is Button with 5, 5.
UTG raises, 3 folds, MP3 calls, CO calls, Hero 3-bets, 2 folds, MP3 calls, CO calls.

Bad play by your opponents make you money. Repeat it again, bad play by your opponents make you money.

Remember that and move on to the next case.

I don't like the raise from the MP guy because he is on a draw and it he has to bluff through two players to win.

I actually kind of like the turn raise. If Hero is on a whiffed AK he might fold, and MP3 is facing CO with 2 cold. And as you pointed out, it's a semibluff raise...he's double-gutted to the straight, and if Hero isn't on AK, then his A outs are probably good as well.

Tack on the fact that there's an all-in, and so his raise gains some legitimacy because everyone knows he'll have to show down, and I don't dislike his turn raise in the least. With all his outs and the size of the pot, it doesn't have to work too often to come out ahead.

The turn raise by MP3 was pretty bad.... almost as bad as 3 betting preflop in to an UTG raise. What were you thinking? You weren't even getting the odds to call.
