ROWAN COUNTY, KENTUCKY – The U.S. Supreme Court ruled that homosexuals must be given marriage licenses, but a Kentucky clerk refused to comply and has been jailed.
The woman’s name is Kim Davis of Rowan county, Kentucky, where she is the elected county clerk in charge of issuing marriage licenses. She is reportedly a devout Christian woman who believes in one man and one woman entering into wedlock. She herself has had four marriages, to three different men, news outlets say, and gave birth to two children out of wedlock.
On Thursday, federal judge David L. Bunning ruled Davis’s religious beliefs were not enough to prevent her from signing same-sex marriage certificates.
Davis cannot be fired from her job for not following the law; she would have to be impeached or re-called by voters.
She will remain jailed until she agrees to comply with the law.
