She could not have been 16 when they married. I've also seen her age listed as 31, but the oldest boy who survived to get to hospital and later died was not his natural child and he was 13, making her about 18 or 19 when that child was born, if her age is truly 31, older if your age, 33, is correct. And they never had all of the kids he's fathered with all those women living in the house and definitely not at the time of the fire. Anyway, I know the situation about this man but I was hoping to get a discussion going regarding why he or they may have done this. Motive is not articulated by the prosecutor so it will interesting should they go to trial, as it seems they will.
