Judge Rogers asked Bundy,according to the court transcripts.He replied ''well to be honest sir,i was raised with four sisters and if any man was talking to a woman like that,i'd probably do the same thing''.So the judge asked Josten if he will marry Jayne and then he said ''You know as part of my probation,you're going to have to marry her..within 30 days''.If Josten Bundy declined to do the probation,he would be sentenced to 15 days in jail.The couple,who had talked about eventually getting married but did not have immediate wedding plans,said they were happy that they had tied the knot but dis not appreciate being forced into it.
