Norristown, PA Minister Charged With Bigamy
Minister Charged With Bigamy

PHILADELPHIA -- A Norristown minister is being charged with something most people would consider to be a sin -- bigamy.

The NBC 10 Investigators first told you about one woman's rage, and how she shared it with two other women -- all three women are married to Ricardo Sampson.

They were married to the same man and never knew it until a few months ago when a woman named Donna knocked on Jackie Sampson's door.

"She says 'I'm Rick's wife.' And my heart falls to the floor," Jackie Sampson said.

"They met a person who they thought was a reverend, a person who basically preyed on these people who were emotionally down at the time, built them back up, married them and brought them back down again," Walker said.

2. religion like any drug attracts people who are in need
the street level dealers (priests and ministers) are happy to open up their arms to those who are in need of the solace and comfort of the drug...

however some of the dealers look for a bit more...

3. How could a modest preacher afford three wives?
Jeez. I can barely afford one of them.
