A man with 24 wives and more than 145 children has been found guilty of polygamy.
Winston Blackmore, 61, was convicted in a landmark ruling at the British Columbia Supreme Court in Canada.
He was found guilty of polygamy along with his former brother-in-law, James Oler, 53, who has five wives.
The pair face up to five years in prison in a case that has tested Canada’s 127-year-old polygamy law.
They are former bishops in a breakaway Mormon sect, the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints.
They are from the settlement of Bountiful in British Columbia, a polygamist community of about 1,500 people that was founded in 1946.
Judge Sheri Ann Donegan pointed out in her ruling that Blackmore didn’t deny his polygamy.
“His adherence to the practices and beliefs of the FLDS is not in dispute,” she said.
