A North Carolina man desperate for health insurance robbed a bank of $1 so he could get locked up for medical reasons.
59-year old James Verone is down on his luck. He has a growth of some kind on his chest, an injured foot, two ruptured discs, carpal tunnel syndrome and arthritis. Without a job or health insurance the only idea he could come up with was to rob RBC Bank in Gaston, NC hoping to get a three year sentence so his ailments could get treated.
Verone entered the bank unarmed on Thursday (June 9) and handed a teller a note with his demand.
"The note said 'this is a bank robbery, please only give me one dollar,'" Verone explained while sitting in Gaston County jail charged with felony larceny. "This is the first time I've ever been in trouble with the law. I'm sort of a logical person and that was my logic. (That was) what I came up with."
Before leaving his house by cab to commit the robbery, Verone sent a letter to the Gaston Gazette listing the county jail as the return address.
“When you receive this a bank robbery will have been committed by me. This robbery is being committed by me for one dollar,” he wrote. “I am of sound mind but not so much sound body."
Verone is currently in jail on $2000 bond.

Last night Lupe Fiasco went on the O'Reilly Factor to talk about his recent comments that President Obama is a terrorist.
The 29-year old rapper didn't back down from his previous statements, but did try to clarify them.
"To put it into context I was asked about a song I did called 'Words I Never Said' which addresses terrorism," Lupe said. "So the statement that I made which was the biggest terrorist -- Obama and the United States of America and it's foreign policy. It's really just an expression of me trying to understand critically the society."
Host Bill O'Reilly defended Obama, which is something new for Fox News.
"President Obama is not a terrorist," O'Reilly said. "He's trying to do what he believes is the right thing to do. The United States is not a bad nation, it's a noble nation. We're trying to defend ourselves against people who killed us on 9/11. And you go out there and talk to a lot of younger people, and this is what gets me. Your constituency are not exactly political science Ph.D's, they're impressionable young kids."

Sean said he's been tricked by one hit female wonders like Boss in the past and doesn't plan on letting it happen again.
"I've been fooled -- you know how they will have a nice single. I was one of those dudes [that] if the single was good I'd buy the album. I got fooled a few times," Sean said.

After what can only be described as a train wreck of a concert in Belgrade, Serbia, Amy Winehouse has cancelled several festival dates so she can get her act together.
"Despite feeling sure that she wanted to fulfill these commitments, she has agreed with management that she cannot perform to the best of her ability and will return home," her spokesperson said in a statement. "She would like to apologize to fans expecting to see her at the shows but feels that this is the right thing to do."
The news of the cancellations comes on the heels of Amy's appearance at Belgrade's Forest Festival. The singer was obviously wasted as she stumbled around the stage, half-singing, half-mumbling her songs in front of 20,000 fans.
Watch video of the concert below.
