So he was married for EIGHTEEN YEARS, had TWO DAUGHTERS, and his marriage was ANNULLED? Say what?

If you have enough MONEY and are willing to lie, the Catholic Church will annul anyone's marriage. Case in point: I had a an uncle, by marriage, who was a multi-millionaire. He had been married 4 times, producing 3 children. We never could prove it; but, everyone in the family (including his son) believes that he murdered my husband's aunt, his 4th wife. The night she was murdered he moved in with his 29 year old mistress. He was the richest man in town and pretty much had ALL local authorities in his back pocket.

He had that marriage annulled, I'm not sure what he did about the others. The next year he had a huge wedding in the Catholic Church and either a Cardinal or Bishop performed the ceremony. I know he greased the palms of greedy church officials to get this accomplished.

Wow.

What do you have to lie about? So you can get it annulled even if one spouse if very strongly OPPOSED to that annullment? Why doesn't it take the concurrence of BOTH?
