By now, you’ve probably seen the ads for ‘Sister Wives,’ a reality television show on TLC which follows the life of a polygamous family. Well, it looks like the public isn’t the only ones who have seen the advertisements.
Apparently, law-enforcement officials in Utah have seen them as well. They are planning to launch a full-on investigation. The groups could be charged with a felony.
Kody Brown is the patriarch of the family. He is married to three women, is thinking about wedding a fourth and is the father of 13 children. Some are biological and the others are step-children.
Weirdly, the family, doesn’t seem to be upset about the possibility of ending up in jail. In fact, they are speaking out, claiming that the show is worth the risks. They have stated that they understood there was the possibility that they could land themselves in some trouble but decided that they were ready and willing to handle the consequences.
I think “arrangements” such as these are really weird. Why a woman would knowingly share her husband with 3 other women and have kids involved is beyond me. It;s hard imagining that someone could be so desperate. I wonder what the children think. Perhaps this kind of thing is normal where they live and so they’re not bothered. They do live in Utah, a state which tends to be more lax about this type of thing.
