It’s safe to assume this is the first time in recent years that Liana Barrientos has stood before a judge without a man at her side.

New York City’s Liana Barrientos failed to show up in court earlier this week — after being brought up on charges of being married to nine men at once:
Barrientos, 39, was charged in April for marrying 10 times but only divorcing once – a Bronx detective uncovered records of marriage licenses filed across New York, including in the Bronx, Long Island and Westchester County.
The Bronx woman is charged with filing fraudulent marriage licenses, which is a felony. Her husbands are from Bangladesh, Egypt, Georgia, Turkey, Pakistan and Mali, according to PIX 11. Bronx District Attorney Robert Johnson told the news station that Barrientos was allegedly married to eight men at once, and is still believed to be wed to four of them.
The problem with letting straight people marry is you just know some of them will abuse it.
