PAISLEY, Scotland, May 7 (UPI) -- A Gambian man who appeared so often at Scottish registry offices he was nicknamed the wedding planner was ordered to prison Wednesday for immigration fraud.

Lamin Manneh received a two-year prison term, The Scotsman reports. But immigration officials say they will try to have him deported as soon as possible.

Manneh was arrested after investigators probing fake marriages began wondering why so many women from Paisley, a former industrial center outside Glasgow, were becoming involved with men from Nigeria, Gambia and Ghana. He allegedly was involved in 107 phony marriages.

Jonathan Manson, representing Manneh, said he actually played a minor role, transporting the men from England, where he lived, to Scotland for their wedding ceremonies at registry offices. But he became so familiar that he got his nickname.

In at least one case, Manneh also served as a witness, giving his own name.

While Manneh received 500 pounds ($1,000) per trip, he had to pay for transportation and housing out of that money, Manson said.

CARY, N.C., May 7 (UPI) -- A North Carolina man who allegedly had two wives in towns about 15 miles apart is facing a bigamy charge after his double life caught up with him.

Dawn Stone-Wilkins, 32, who married Keron Wilkins, 30, of Clayton several months ago, told NBC17 in Raleigh she had begun to wonder why her husband would disappear for days at a time.

Then she got a late-night telephone call: I said 'How did you get my number?' and she said 'Well I got it out of his phone.' I said, 'Excuse me?' She said, 'Well he's in the other room in our bed asleep, and I'm in our daughter's room.' I said, 'Excuse me?' She said, 'And I'm Keron's wife.' And I said, 'Well how are you Keron's wife when I'm Keron's wife?'

Stone-Wilkins said she and Keron lived in Cary, a town about 10 miles outside Raleigh and 15 miles from Clayton. Chaka Wilkins has been married to Keron for eight years and have two children, ages 4 and 8 months, the TV station reported.

According to an arrest warrant filed Tuesday in Wake County Magistrate Court, Keron Wilkins is charged with one felony count of bigamy.

WASECA, Minn., May 7 (UPI) -- A Minnesota couple who won a $180 million Powerball jackpot still sounded stunned days after learning of their good fortune.

It's bigger than you can grasp, Sue Rosenau of Waseca said at a news conference at Minnesota lottery headquarters in Roseville Tuesday. Her husband Paul called their beating the 146,107,962 to one odds in the Saturday night drawing divine intervention, the Star Tribune reported Wednesday. This happened for a reason, he said.

The 54-year-old couple, married for 22 years with three grown children, are taking their winnings in one lump sum of $88 million -- $59.6 million after taxes, the Minneapolis newspaper said. Still, they said, they plan to keep on working their regular jobs -- his operating heavy equipment and hers as a project and communications assistant.

Part of the money will likely go to research for a cure for Krabbe disease, a genetic affliction that claimed the life of their first granddaughter, they said.

Dale Deraad, a close friend and accountant, called them very wonderful people who are going to do great things.

STANFORD, Calif., May 7 (UPI) -- Stanford University researchers in California say wealth may have a smaller impact on older men marrying younger woman than previously thought.

The researchers said their study suggests the older an over-40 groom is, the more likely it is that his bride is significantly younger, the San Jose (Calif.) Mercury News reported Wednesday.

The team said they were shocked to find the pattern unchanged by economic status.

The poor guys marry down (in age) just as much as the rich guys do, said Paula England, a Stanford sociologist who co-authored the study. That was kind of surprising to us.

England said brides of men in their 40s tended to be an average 7 years younger than their husbands, while women marrying men in their 50s were an average 11 years younger and brides of men in their 60s averaged 13 years younger than their beaus.

We do find that money helps men's chances of getting married, England said. But if we take youth as our crude measure of beauty, it doesn't seem like men are being able to exchange their money for younger women, so we don't know what's differentiating which older guys are able to marry very young women.
