When the authorities find this license, they start prepping themselves for one of the hardest parts of the job, the moment when you have to tell somebody that their loved one is dead.
So the sheriff and a member of the highway patrol agreed to make the 25-mile drive to Jim's house together and deliver the news.
By the time they get to his house, it's 2.45 a.m.
on the day before his wedding.
And now that wedding is never going to happen.
They don't know how Jim's going to react, but they can assume it's going to be heartbreaking news.
But when they get there, the deputies are blindsided.
Jim answers his door and he's not alone.
Melanie Addy, his fourth wife, walks up behind him.
This is the woman who supposedly got into a bad car accident and just died, whose funeral was scheduled for later that day.
And Melanie's right there.
Very much alive.
But that's not all.
Melanie isn't Jim's ex-wife at all.
She's his current wife of 23 years.
And she has no idea who Molly Watson even is.
It's not every day that the sheriff unexpectedly uncovers a secret family.
So he steps inside to talk to Jim and Melanie.
It's clear right away that Melanie generally didn't know her husband was having an affair.
And she really wasn't aware he was engaged to be married.
