‘Then she decided that she wanted to follow through with it. As absurd as it sounds, and as kind of bizarre that it might be that a man would have multiple wives, it is illegal,’ said Sheriff Lee Foster to KLTV.
Pixley was arrested Wednesday and charged with bigamy.
‘He was not in to wanting to talk to us about it,’ said Foster. ‘He had made just a few comments regarding that he thought maybe it was a misunderstanding, but past that, he didn’t have anything else to say.’
