A man jailed for bank robbery claims that he committed the crime just to get away from his annoying wife — sounds like it’s time to unleash Christian groups on Everybody Loves Raymond (it’s damaging our adults!!!):
A Pennsylvania man said he robbed a bank in 2007 to go to jail and get away from his overbearing wife.
At a sentencing hearing Monday, 39-year-old Anthony Miller said he robbed a bank in Ephrata because he wanted to leave his then-wife but she had threatened to commit suicide if he did.
In his opening statement, the man then grabbed a mic and pleaded to the crowd, “Every time we’re about to leave for a party, my wife turns to me and goes ‘you gonna wear that?’ But we play it off, don’t we guys? We’re like, “Uhhh, no, of course not — I was just about to put my real clothes on top of these!”
He went on, “And she has SO MANY SHOES!!! I’m like, what is this, our house or a shoe store? Are we stockpiling shoes for the Great Shoe Depression of 2010?? This guy knows what I’m talkin’ about!”
“…Long story short, I robbed that bank.”
