151. That would depend on whether she was coerced or brainwashed,
and whether the man was already legally married to someone else.

My guess with this bunch would be that both those prohibited factors were true. The first would be difficult to prove unless the girl was placed outside the home. The second could be proved by doing a DNA match on the girl's child even if the girl wouldn't talk.

What I've read indicates that girls are "married off" when they are 13 or 14, and that 16-year-olds often have more than one child.
