Howard joined the Monroe Police Department in Sept. 29, 2002 and is now charged with a felony after his second wife came forward and filed a criminal complaint.

Howard has been married to his first wife in Monroe since 1986, but married the second woman last year. The second wife lived in Charlotte and neither reportedly knew of the other wife.

    What was this guy thinking?? How can you expect to keep two wives secret from each other? What was the second wife thinking when she married this guy? She obviously didn’t know very much about him. I sure hope it was worth it for him. Will he have to pay maintenance twice? Or can he only be legally responsible to pay once? I have not done many divorces and it has been quite awhile since I did one, but I can guarantee that I never had to deal with a fact pattern like this one. I would be interested in the opinion of any Family Law attorneys that may read this “interesting” case.

    Obama is a nitwit and anybody that votes for him is a fool.

    Mary,
    I am sure glad that you shared your fact based view of the upcoming election. When your medication runs out, good luck trying to pay for it if McCain wins the election. Next time, why don’t you stick to the topic.

    Mary,

    Ma’am I think you are on the wrong thread and perhaps on the wrong planet if your statements are an accurate representation of your “thinking.”

    I am a very conservative 30-year registered Republican and I would be abjectly *ashamed* to say I voted for McCain/Palin. I do not personally like Mr. Obama, although he has the best plan for a very troubled, once great Nation. Obama has my vote and he better deliver.

    Now, back on topic. I have no comment regarding the NC Officer and I was interrupted by your post while attempting to read the other posts.

    I like people like Mary. She reminds me of the crazy-haired woman at that McCain rally:

    “Obama is a … a … he’s an Arab!”

    Mary, you’ve got a friend in Ashley Todd!

    You are doing so many great things for this country by representing the Republican party. You are their poster-child. Keep up the good work, Mary …

    I think mary is the return of martha. At least they are biblical sisters!
