Meet the bigamist who married 19 times

A Mayo grandfather who married 19 times in three countries is getting acquainted with another kind of ball and chain after being jailed for bigamy.

Oliver Killeen, who once had a bogus psychologist’s practice in Ireland, was sentenced to 90 days in prison in Toronto, Canada, on conviction for the first of his fraudulent marriages which he entered in 1978.

Killeen, aged 75, emigrated from McHale Road in Castlebar in the 1950s with his first wife who bore him nine children, and led an unremarkable life until her death at the age of 38.
