US EditionFlorida man who had three wives in three counties pleads guilty to bigamy
- Henry Betsey Junior pleaded guilty on a Friday morning to bigamy after being arrested in Florida for marrying three women in three counties simultaneously.
- He married the three women between late 2020 and late 2022 without divorcing any, a situation uncovered when one wife discovered the others and Hernando County detectives investigated.
- Each marriage occurred in a different Florida county, and his case highlighted the lack of a national marriage registry as noted by the Pinellas County Clerk Ken Burke.
- The guilty plea was open, leaving sentencing to a judge on July 31, when all three wives may speak, and the story related to Betsey went viral with over 476,000 views on YouTube.
- This case exposed significant gaps in Florida’s system for tracking marital status, prompting Betsey's wives to blame the state for not preventing such bigamy across counties.
