How long do you go to prison if you are a sister wife?

Answer 1

This depends on the state/country and the sentence the judge gives you. In some countries, polygamy is legal so you will not go to prison. While polygamy is illegal in the United States, each state has its own laws. The least severe penalties include Hawaii (30 days in jail), Montana ($500 fine and 6 months in jail), and Rhode Island ($1000 fine). The most severe penalties are found in Alabama, Georgia, Mississippi, and Maryland, which can carry a prison sentence of up to 10 years. Most states have bigamy as a minor felony, punishable by 5 years in prison and several thousand dollars in fines.
