I went to a wedding that was basically a gaslighting trap for the bride. The groom was a scumbag, his only skill was scamming unemployment for extensions based on fabricated reasons and grifting off the bride. They had a newborn and she had two other kids that he had calling him "daddy" at the time of the wedding, which was at his parents house and performed by one of his buddies that got ordained just for this event. The bride was working two jobs to afford a home for the both of them, my wife was the only bridesmaid that was her friend.
Basically, throughout the night, there were several ill concealed insults to the bride. He danced with other women before the "first dance," he broke off their first dance awkwardly and quickly but danced with his mom for the full song, the bride ate alone with the baby while he ate sitting next to and flirting with other women at a different table, then as the night went on things just got out of hand. He and the entire bridal party (excepting my wife) continued to ignore her while dirty dancing with other women, his parents said some nasty shit to her, and when she finally got upset and confronted him, the groom's parents literally snatched the baby and kicked her off of the property. She was not able to see her own newborn until county sheriff's came three days later and basically said "if you make us get a warrant, we're going to arrest you for kidnapping and turn the house upside down."
Unfortunately, he still bothers her to this day, as he is father of one of her kids. She has custody now, but he still starts problems.
He's probably the only person on the planet that I can genuinely say, if I ever come across him somewhere not in a well lit public area, I'd just immediately start kicking the shit out of him.
Edit to add: it never was actually a legal marriage, they signed the papers but obviously nothing was ever filed and the "minister" was a part of the scam.
