A Florida man who illegally juggled secret marriages to three unsuspecting women he met on dating apps managed to escape jail time after his deception was unearthed.

Henry Betsey Jr., 50, was sentenced to two years’ probation on Thursday after he pleaded “no contest” to felony bigamy in May, ABC Action News reported.

Along with his sentence of two years’ probation, Judge Charles B. Merritt Jr. ordered Betsey to perform 100 hours of community service, to complete a mental health evaluation, and to stay off social media and dating websites.

I’ve often wondered what black men’s obsession with white women is.

Warning: Politically incorrect truth follows. Stop reading here if you can't handle it.

1) The average White woman is better looking than the average black woman.

2) The average White woman is better company than the average black woman.

I warned you.

And girlfriends at every major truckstop across the country. I used to chuckle when I drove long haul. A driver would blow by me at 80 and then I would see his truck sitting at the next truckstop. Then about three hours later he would blow by me again to be sitting at the next truckstop again. Then about three hours later blow by me again, rinse and repeat...

There have been several Lifetime movies based on that theme. All “ripped from the headlines”.

I think one had David Soul. Another was John Ritter. (IIRC)

I’ve often wondered what black men’s obsession with white women is.

In all seriousness, besides this one article. Judging from conversations I've had with young black adults in my majority black church, particularly when I every now and then lead a financial small group (and the topic of long term planning comes up). The #1 issue seems to be that black men look at black women as single mom material -- black men simply haven't been around a lot of long-term married black women. While black women look at black men as dead beat dad material. Even if they get to know the other person as truly living a godly life, they can't get past the the surface (reading the book by the cover) knowing that a lot of blacks claim to be Christian and go to church regularly, but outside church live worldly lives (even more than whites tend to do).

60+% of black kids (call it 2/3rds) grow up with just one of his parents. They all want better for their future. A lot of them think the odds of a sustainable marriage is with someone of another race besides the one that loudly promotes "acting black". Of course, I'm talking about Christian leaning single blacks, not blacks looking for a trophy woman or such (a black man showing off his white chick like he's moved up, while she shows off his black man showing she's into diversity).

Marrying 3 women is punishment enough. One woman is enough trouble for any man, Marrying more than one is not smart.

Ever notice how Oriental women have black partners? I say so what. What goes on in the confines of your home is your private business

Maybe if we let them reproduce in this way they will stop trying to recruit our kids. But I doubt it.

During the year before my Mom passed, she would give out tidbits of deep family lore. Pretty much was all on my Dad’s side of family.

One was a relative who was a drummer (traveling salesman) who road the rails from town to town selling household stuff. This would be the 1890s through the 1920’s.

He was married to two women and had a handful of girlfriends around Texas. One girlfriend he was engaged to discovered the mess she was getting into.

White women are easier to find in a dark bedroom.
