A Mound man accused of abusing his niece told police that his behavior was biblically justified.

The marriage took place during a family vacation to Yellowstone National Park during the summer of 2001.
Before long, James Wallace Fall began alternating nights in the beds of his 49-year-old wife and his new "bride" in Mound.
Fall, now 58, saw nothing wrong with the fact that the bride was his niece or that she was 10 when they "married," according to Mound police.
He told the girl that it was God's will that they marry. He told police this justified their union, legally and morally.
"He absolutely believes what he's saying," said Jami Wittke, a detective with the Mound Police Department, who interviewed Fall. "He said the Bible tells him that it's OK to have a relationship with your niece, to marry someone" that young.
Fall was arrested in January and charged with criminal sexual conduct by the Hennepin County attorney's office.
............................
His wife, Rosemary Fall, was also arrested after the unidentified victim, who is now 19, told police that her aunt had known about the arrangement and done nothing.
"She was well aware of everything that was going on," Wittke said. "The investigation shows she was told about it while still at Yellowstone."
...............................
The arrangement, investigators believe, lasted for almost nine years until the young woman walked into the Mound Police Department in January and bore witness against her uncle.
The niece told investigators that Fall maintained the relationship through coercion, threatening to kick her and her two brothers out of the house if she didn't go along.
