I have heard of a man like that as well (might even be the same man). As for polygamy I have never known a polygamist. However, the sad thing with many of these situations is that they are poor and live off of the governments. Here in Texas we had a polygamist raid not too long ago. Many of the girls were married really young to much older men and there was even evidence of abuse.

Not sure to which group you are referring to. I have heard of both American polygamists and foriegn ones living off of their corresponding governments. The man with 86 wives (I believe) is the one I read about. The people here in Texas were Americans.
