Joe Morrissey, Myrna Warren marry at Morrissey's family farm in Varina
RICHMOND, VA (WWBT) - Former delegate Joe Morrissey is now married to the woman at the center of a case that once sent him to jail.
Myrna Warren and Morrissey tied the knot on Saturday at his family farm in Varina before about 250 guests.
In 2015, Morrissey spent his days at the General Assembly and his nights in jail after he was accused of having sex with Warren while she was his 17-year-old receptionist. He eventually entered an Alford Plea in the case.
Morrissey and Warren now have two children.
"She is the most beautiful person in the world – both inside and out," said Morrissey of his new wife Warren in a statement released by his campaign.
Morrissey is among the list of candidates running to be elected as Richmond's next mayor.
In their statement, Morrissey said he and Warren will live Richmond's Ginter Park as Myrna completes her degree in Child Development and Morrissey continues practicing law and his campaign for mayor.
