NY woman married 10 different men without bothering to get a single divorce
It has just come to light that a New York woman was busted last November for marrying 10 different men in 11 years without bothering to get a single divorce.
Liana Barrientos, 39, a native of the Dominican Republic, may have broken the record for serial brides. Six of her 10 wedding ceremonies were held within a span of six months. Her latest marriage, which occurred in March 2010, was to a man named Salle Keita.
From the April 9 New York Daily News:
A Bronx detective uncovered nine previous marriage licenses for Barrientos, including a half-dozen issued in the span of six busy months, the court documents filed last November charged.
The first license was dated Nov. 5, 1999, to husband Mohamed Gerbril, and the last on Aug. 3, 2002, to groom Kakhaber Khorbaladze — her sixth marriage that year.
Liana was scheduled to appear in Bronx Supreme Court today to be arraigned on two charges of filing a false instrument. She faces a maximum term of four years in prison on each count.
No motive was given for the bogus marriages. But looking at the names of her ‘husbands,’ I suspect that they were part of a citizenship scam.
