'Polygamy'? Well, that too, but also try 'fraud', 'grand theft', etc., etc.
Story here. Excerpt:
Kyle Elizabeth McConnell admits she has a habit of marrying men.
But while a lawyer for the 46-year-old says McConnell is simply a serial monogamist, Michigan authorities claim McConnell was a polygamist.
They allege she went from from one spouse to the next before they realized she had cleaned out their bank accounts.
McConnell has already pleaded guilty to attempted forgery and intent to defraud for writing bad checks to her former husband, Richard McConnell. Those checks were drawn on an account belonging to Len Battaglia, who she married before McConnell.

How About Charging Her With Abuse Of The Handicapped?
She should also be charged with abuse of the handicapped and retarded. Look at her picture for god's sake! A man would have to be blind and or seriously mentally deficient to marry a skank like her. Or maybe she is a sex goddess in bed and a great cook too? Then again, maybe not!
All sarcasm aside, I just don't understand how someone could find her attractive enough to marry her.
WTF??
But defense lawyer Robert McClellan is expected to argue that, because his client was already married to Len Battaglia when she married McConnell, her marriage to McConnell was invalid.
So she's not guilty of polygamy.... because she was already commiting it?
Now THAT is some strange defence.
