Big o' you? No, it's big o' me! (Sigh.)

A Montgomery County man, Alfred Otero (left, and quite a looker; come and get it, ladies!), is charged with bigamy, a crime that I thought went out with bootlegging alcohol. But, he's accused of being married to two women at the same time -- one who he wedded in the Caribbean five years ago, the other who he married in 1985.

Crimes like these kind of just make you want to say, "Wow! Really? How'd you pull that one off?" I guess going to the Caribbean will allow you to get though the ceremony unnoticed, but five years without anyone noticing? Impressive.

There is a twist to the story, as the KYW 1060 article notes:

Prosecutor Risa Ferman says Otero knew he was married to two women. What they don't know is if he knew it was a crime.

Later, Otero went on a puppy-kicking rampage. Prosecutors don't know if he knew if that was a crime, either.
