Code of Canon Law - The Marriage Sacrament: Specific Diriment Impediments

Can. 1090 §1. Anyone who with a view to entering marriage with a certain person has brought about the death of that person’s spouse or of one’s own spouse invalidly attempts this marriage.

§2. Those who have brought about the death of a spouse by mutual physical or moral cooperation also invalidly attempt a marriage together.

There is a distinction to be observed and recognized when a 'widower' has participated in or caused directly the death of their spouse -if such is the case then any marriage attempted would be invalid regardless any confession and or ceremony...
