At least she knows where he is nights! Maybe they're emotional masochists: there is always the possibility that he will get released. That is her opportunity to become the willing victim in a real "Lifetime" movie.

Reason: Missing word
Sadly, I have to agree with that observation.
Many years ago at the school where I worked, one of my colleagues was a somewhat nutty Biology teacher. In an apparent attempt at performing good works in the community, she volunteered to teach a course or two at the maximum-security state prison a few miles away. For some reason or other, she became attracted to a prisoner who was behind bars for--Guess what?--murdering his wife.
You can probably figure out at least part of the ensuing tale yourself. She divorced her husband of 20 years, and wound up totally alienating her two teenaged kids. She married this convict, and was then able to have conjugal visits with him in prison. Because he was now married to a "stable member of the community", her convict hubby was able to obtain parole and early release.
She resigned her teaching position that she had held for well over a decade and she and her new mate moved to The U.S. Virgin Islands. Within a few months of that move, he disappeared, never to be found again. She moved back to the mainland and attempted to regain her old teaching position, and--despite the difficulties in obtaining science teachers--the Board of Education chose to NOT rehire her (for good reasons, I think).
I have no idea about where this woman eventually wound up, but suffice it to say that, as a result of her extremely poor judgment, she rejected her first husband, alienated her kids, became the laughing stock of the community, and lost a job that she otherwise would probably have been able to remain in until retirement.
It is crazy. An acquaintance told us a story about her daughter and her relationship with a convicted child molester! I guess she met him online. Ended up she went to see him in prison and took her female cousin. Well now female cousin is married to the guy. Two women - fairly attractive - fighting over a molester!!!
The acquaintance was glad that her daughter didn't end up with him. But really - why?????????
In addition, these are probably women who have suffered some kind of abuse and the men in prison have plenty of time to devote to winning (conning) them. "But he loves me" is the smoke screen - they're both unhealthy, to put it minimally.
Would the women or offspring (conjugal visits?) have any claim to residual estate/wealth? If there is any after this length of time.

Yes, she was nuts!
Wow, that's crazy...!!!
In a (wrong) way, it's kind of funny too.
I think it's that whole bad boy attraction. You can safely marry a dangerous person who is behind bars and can't physically harm you and still live in fantasy land. It's creepy and crazy. I'll never understand the mentality of someone wanting to be married to an incarcerated monster vs being married to a good person you can actually snuggle with at night.
besides all the reasons mentioned, the relationship starts out "perfect" in that the men are never around during the day to day. so the women can imagine what the man would say or do in certain circumstances and because it is an idea in their heads they make the man's reactions what they want it to be. prison love is perfect in that he will never be out, he will never disappoint and he will never cheat. prison love is mostly in the head. a great fantasy for their "marriage"
