“Man Can Now Marry His Blood Sister As Wife” – Supreme Court

It has now been decided that a man has legal right to marry his biological sister as wife when both consent to the marriage.

The Supreme Court in New Jersey, United States of America, has granted a brother and sister right to get married. The couple has been in Court for ten years and they finally won the right to live as husband and wife.

In a 5-to-4 ruling, five judges unanimously granted the appeal by James Banes, 41, and Victoria Banes, 38 and consented that they have right to live as husband and wife.

The couple said that they did it for the ‘millions of Americans who have consensual incestuous relationships and are living in fear’. They took a swipe on the Government for wasting taxpayers’ money fighting their challenge.

“Incest has been practiced by humans since the dawn of time. If Adam and Eve hadn’t done it, the human race would not be here today”
James Banes told reporters after his historic victory.

The Banes family lawyer, Julianne Grey, argued that criminalizing incestuous marriage while first-cousin marriage was legal in the state of New Jersey was a nonsensical and discriminatory measure.

“Why am I allowed to bang my cousin but not my sister? It just doesn’t make any sense” James Banes said during an interview.

The couple that was currently facing up to 15 years in jail said that they were now planning to start a large family and enjoy their newly found freedom.

“We’ve always dreamed of having a big family, now this dream will become a reality” added Victoria Banes, who also told reporters she is pregnant and expecting twins.

Previously, New Jersey State laws only allowed first-cousin marriages, but since the landmark ruling, New Jersey is now the only state in the country to also allow incestuous marriages.
