European Women Marriages to U.S. Death Row Inmates On the Rise
European women marry U.S. death row inmates
From CNN....Although there are no statistics, authorities in several states said it was not unusual for men on death row to marry, often to women from Europe.
According to Death Penalty News, a newsletter published by death penalty foes, 10 women have wed men on Florida's death row alone since 1997. Hester Patrick knows of three other women married to inmates on Texas death row, all of them Europeans.
Marriages between condemned men in America and women from Germany and the Scandinavian countries, where opposition to the U.S. death penalty is strong, seem to be particularly common.
