A 71-year-old Gloucester, VA woman faces up to 10 years in prison when she's sentenced this week on a bigamy plea.
Shirley Smith-Smart is scheduled to be sentenced Wednesday in Isle of Wight Circuit Court.
The defendant also is known as Shirley Inez Cassara.
She entered an Alford plea to a bigamy charge in January, admitting there is sufficient evidence for a court to find her guilty. In exchange, perjury and forgery charges were dropped.
The bigamy charge stems from the eighth of her ten marriages. Prosecutors say she was already married when she wed again.
