Man Holds Up Bank For $1 In Attempt To Get Medical Treatment In Prison

21 Jun 2011

Richard James Verone, 59, unemployed, who apparently has a chest growth,
two ruptured disks and a problem with his left foot, tried to rob a bank
of $1 so he could be treated free as a prisoner. Verone, of North
Carolina, USA, walked into an RBC Bank branch and handed over a note to
a female worker demanding one dollar.

In the note he had written that he was armed.

Verone said he is hoping for a three-year sentence, the time he
estimates his medical needs will take.

After handing over the note he is said to have sat down on a chair.

The bank teller dialed 911 and said on the phone "He's sitting on the
sofa as you walk in the front door."

The police were called and arrested him; he had no weapon.

In a telephone interview from prison in Gaston County, North Carolina,
Verone said that he is a logical person, and holding up a bank for one
dollar was the only logic he could come up with.

Verone added:

"If it is called manipulation, then out of necessity because I need
medical care, then I guess I am manipulating the courts to get medical
care."


As he was unarmed he will not be jailed for armed robbery. Larceny,
which means theft, would probably only result in a one-year jail term.
