Too Fat For Jail?


Can you be too fat for Jail? There was a 600 pound Florida man who had been in trouble over five times for cheating fast food places as well as convenience stores out of money by making fraud claims.

For example, one time he brought in one gallon of ice cream and told a 7-11 clerk that he had 9 more at home and they were all damaged and bad and that he wanted his money back. The local government did not want to have to pay for his transportation to and from jail, as well as care for his health problems, so they struck a deal for him to plead no contest.

He did this and was able to get out on lower charges. He still had to spend his time in a nursing home on oxygen at the age of 38. So my question is, would you rather be in Jail or in a nursing home on oxygen? You be the judge to whats worse.
