She Married a Prison Inmate—Then Found Out Who He Really Was

Amanda Lowe, 29, believed in second chances. She fell in love with a man serving 12 years for armed robbery after becoming his prison pen pal.

They got married over video call. Her family begged her to reconsider. She didn’t.

Three months after his parole, Amanda discovered the truth: her husband wasn’t just a robber—he was a con man with three secret marriages and a fake identity.

“I was in love with a ghost,” she says.

He vanished with her savings and was later arrested in Nevada under yet another name.

Now recovering, Amanda is warning others. “He made me feel like the only woman in the world—and I fell for it. But people like him hunt hope.”

Her story is being turned into a docuseries called “Love Behind Bars: The Amanda Files.”

Would she ever date again?

“Yes,” she says. “But this time, I’ll Google harder.”
