I found it really fascinating! Most of the marriages happened after the crime was committed or after they were already incarcerated. There's some definite control happening, by the dudes, even from behind bars.
ETA: I also find it interesting because I see the other side of these relationships.

Isn't it really popular for prison inmates to have pen pals and they have websites set up for this?

Absolutely. Inmates are on dating sites, soliciting women through other inmates and through the mail. A lot of guys have wives, girlfriends and "friends". They don't share that info with the women, obviously. More women equals more power, more money coming in and more attention. I've actually gotten calls from women asking if there are other women on the visiting lists because they suspect he's cheating.

that's really sad. I could see XH having a "heyday" in there. He'd have a lot of "fans" I'm sure. "I'm a good man, I've just made a few mistakes over the years and I'm paying the price for it but if you are willing to wait 5-7 I'm your guy".
