Quote:Bigamy is no longer a felony in Utah
Polygamy has been practiced in Utah by certain religious groups since before it became a state and continues to persist to this day.
Though the practice has long been illegal under state and federal law, the Utah attorney general's office has declined to prosecute the offense, except when it's committed along with other crimes.
The new law makes the attorney general's policy official.

And what about polyandry?
I guess members of "certain religious groups" can't live without having orgies every night.
Polyandry is subsumed under ‘bigamy’. If a woman has two or more husbands, she’s in a bigamous relationship.
The common confusion results from the fact that the correct term for a man with multiple wives (polygyny) has largely fallen out of general use.
