(NEWSER) – A woman and her daughter are facing incest charges after authorities learned the pair were legally married in Oklahoma this year, and that the mother had married her son a few years earlier, the AP reports. The motivation behind the March marriage was unclear Wednesday, when 43-year-old Patricia Ann Spann and her daughter, 25-year-old Misty Velvet Dawn Spann, made initial appearances in court. Under Oklahoma law, marrying a close relative is considered incest whether or not a sexual relationship exists.
According to a police affidavit, officers learned about the marriage late last month amid a child welfare investigation. Patricia Spann told a state child services investigator she’d lost custody of three children, who were adopted by their paternal grandmother, but reunited with her daughter two years ago. She said she thought a marriage was OK because her name wasn’t on her daughter’s birth certificate, the affidavit states. Detectives later learned she married her son in 2008. He filed for an annulment 15 months later citing “incest,” stating he was married to his birth mother, according to the affidavit.
Let ’em be. It’s not like they’re going to reproduce. And I seriously doubt any guys will be looking for these ladies.
There’s just all kinds of wrong going on here.
One big happy family
Open the window and let the wrong out.
Looks a tax scam and welfare fraud to me!
Zippy says its OK sooooo…..
“Who am I to judge?” “Love is love” LGBTQI (<- did I leave anything out?)
What you all said above……ditto!
Why not? The government is opening the door to everything else. It’s only a matter of time before this is legal, too.
Judging by the mother I would say this isn’t the first generation that’s practiced incest.
Incestuous Homosexual Bigamy? Welcome to Obama’s Amerika!

and street prostitution were involved.
There ya go Hallmark. See what you can do with that.
Bunch of sick mother fuckers.
“Who are these people?” … Mary Swanson
I think my brain hurts. A lot.
That moment when you tried to scam the Government out of some lofty sum like 5 grand, and you end up plastered with a mother/daughter incest rap
Can I marry my dead mother? What – – too tasteless?

That mother looks like a less attractive version of Tom Petty.
@Anon:
Most tasteless joke I’ve ever heard:
Guy 1: I had sex with your mother last night.
Guy 2: Yeah, right, she’s been dead for two years.
Guy 1: (pause)… I know.
