And this is the part, I think, that intrigues people so much is that probably James Addy was content to just continue this affair.

So he goes so far as to get the marriage license, and, you know, he's caught on videotape. You see the two of them on surveillance tape going to the office to go get the marriage license, and you know his mind is spinning. What am I going to do?
