A 70-year-old man charged with robbing a Kansas City, Kan., bank said he did it because he preferred a jail cell over living with his wife.

According to court documents, Ripple handed a teller a note that read, “I have a gun, give me money.”

But instead of fleeing, Ripple took the money and then took a seat in the bank lobby, according to the documents.

KANSAS CITY, Kan. (AP) — A 71-year-old man who said he robbed a Kansas City, Kansas, bank so he could get away from his wife blamed his actions on depression. A federal judge on Tuesday sentenced Lawrence John Ripple to six months of home confinement and 50 hours of community service.

Didn't Kirk sentence Harry Mudd to this same thing?
