Man weds 15 times in three years

HIS name is Miguel, but friends call him "Don Juan" - after marrying 15 women in three years while divorcing none, prosecutors said today.

A tenacious worker at the Nicaraguan office of civil registries uncovered Miguel Gutierrez, by searching for records of previous marriages when the businessman attempted to register marriage number 15.

Prosecutors said Gutierrez, 38, married women to improve their chances of finding work outside Nicaragua.

Gutierrez, a former immigration office worker, denies the charges.

Prosecutors noted that the computerised civil registry only goes back three years, so Gutierrez may face additional violations.

Investigators could locate only the most recent of the 15 wives. The rest had left Nicaragua to work in neighbouring countries.

Gutierrez said his new wife does not believe the charges, nor does she feel any jealousy toward the other 14.

"I'm taking it easy," he said.

"Prosecutors said Gutierrez, 38, married women to improve their chances of finding work outside Nicaragua. "

Gutierrez responded, "I was just trying to help. I thought it was big o' me."

If it's (S) like this: <S> (text here) </s> it means Strike Text

Like so.

(If it's SHTML if usually is reference to a secure document)

Fifteen wives are bad enough. But 15 mothers-in-law?

If his wives got together they'd form a motorcycle gang?

From the context, I think that the (S) in longtermmemory's post is short for (Sarcasm).

Gutierrez said his new wife does not believe the charges, nor does she feel any jealousy toward the other 14.

Now there's a woman I could see marrying:

Husband: "Honey, I won't be coming home tonight."
Wife: "That's OK, dear, because I don't believe any of those stories they're telling about you, and I don't feel jealous."
