Those crazies in Utah are at it again.

"SALT LAKE CITY, Utah (AP) -- A member of Utah's polygamous Kingston clan was sentenced Monday to a year in prison for taking a 15-year-old cousin -- who was also his aunt -- as his wife. "
(source: CNN.com)

Jeremy Ortell Kingston is this winners name. He was 24 when he married his 15 yr old cousin, who was is aunt. The article says he has at least 17 kids.

Here are 2 things that got me thinking.. His cousin was also his aunt.. and she was 15. How does that work? I tried to think about it for a second and it hurt.

Also.. why, if he could marry whoever he wants, would he marry his cousin/aunt? If i were to marry multiple women, I would be kind of picky.

Edit: I just realized this probably belongs in News.
