JONESBORO - A Clayton County woman appeared in court Tuesday on charges that she was married to six men at the same time. <br> <br> Forty-four-year-old Tammie Denise Rider faces five felony counts of bigamy. She is being held in Clayton County jail on a $10,000 bond. <br> <br> Thomas Rider Junior said he reported his wife to Clayton County sheriff&#39;s deputies after he learned she had other husbands. <br> <br> Rider told WAGA-TV, ``I think she should get the book thrown at her. Because I&#39;ve been used. The other husbands have been used, lied to. She gets away with this, who know what she&#39;ll get away with it.&#39;&#39; <br> <br> Tammie Rider was Mrs. Dunton in Tennessee, Mrs. Edwards in Alabama, Mrs. Maddox in South Carolina and Mrs. Crain, Smith and Rider in Georgia. She didn&#39;t try to live with all the husbands at the same time. <br> <br> A Clayton Couny magistrate set a preliminary hearing for March 19. If Tammie Rider is convicted, she could be sentenced to 50 years in prison.
