A British mother is abandoning her three young children and flying to the US to marry a prisoner.

The single mother will leave her children, all of whom are younger than 10, with their father after she flies to Texas in order to be with the man who is currently behind bars.

Jennifer Butler, 29, met Christopher Mosier, 23, on writeaprisoner.com in July 2011 while he was serving a 15 year jail term for a violent armed robbery.

Mosier is expected to be released on parole in September having served only five years of his term, and Jennifer hopes to meet him at the prison gates.




‘Chris is a wonderful man,’ she said. ‘Sure, he made a few mistakes in the past, but everybody deserves a second chance.’

During one of Jennifer’s visits to Christopher in prison, he proposed to her by tying a piece of grey string around her finger when a ring could not be found.

Jennifer claims that her children will be reunited with her once she has settled in the States.

‘Leaving my children is not an easy thing to decide to do. But I want to get everything ready for them in America before they move,’ she told the Mail Online.
