Too Fat for Jail: 600-Pound Food Scammer Too Fat for Jail - KTLA (http://www.ktla.com/news/landing/ktla-too-fat-for-jail,0,7683970.story)

FLORIDA -- A 600-pound man arrested for scamming restaurants for free food won't have to go to jail... because he's too fat.

Prosecutors offered George Jolicoeur, 38, a plea deal because the cost of the medical care he requires made it too expensive to incarcerate him.

Jolicoeur scammed restaurants and stores by ordering food and then complaining about the quality and refusing to pay for it.

Police said he once drank five milkshakes at a restaurant and then complained the milk was "off" and refused to pay.

He was arrested in 2007 after he ate nearly $50 of beef jerky from a 7-Eleven, then left without paying because he said some of it was moldy.

On his way to the police station, according to the police report, Jolicoeur told the officer, "The beef jerky got me."

Jolicoeur became ill and bed-ridden after he was arrested, however. He now lives at a nursing home and requires a respirator to breathe.

The state would have to foot the bill for his medical care if he went to prison, so they offered him a plea deal.

Jolicoeur pleaded no contest to five counts of felony petty theft.

He'll pay a fine, but he won't have to go to jail or serve probation.

"He's in his prison cell," said Assistant State Attorney Kyan Ware. "He's not getting out of that bed.

In 2005, Jolicoeur pleaded no contest to five similar crimes.

f that.. dude brought it upon himself..

[ronmcdon]

you say that like it's a bad thing.
he more or less got away with it.
being fat is the new 'jail free card' now, apparently.

[matts13vert]

naw dude that guy is past fat hes fucken dead already

[renegade_ewok]

You say he should go to jail, then other people will bitch about taxes.

Let him keep eating and get a heart attack already, problem solved.

[Homer_Simpson]

Damn glutton. Throw his ass on one of those conveyor belt and force feed him until he pops.

[Matej]

That is no punishment.
Many fatties choose to be bed-ridden.
They should at least make him listen to Akon on loop or something.

[GREXS14]

akon on loop would be considered cruel and unusual punishment.

I would kill myself before I took that.

[Mister.E]

fucking fat people

i have this unbelievable hatred for people that are extremely overweight and this guy is no exception. go figure that he would get busted scamming food.

what a worthless piece of shit.

[tricky_ab]

God bless America! amirite?!?

[Soup Nazi]

The milk was off?

LMFAO

[secondtonone317]

he needs rehab.....his punishment should be zero food, only water for a year, let his body make use of some of that fat.

[sirfallsalot243]

Cant help but feel bad for people like this. Definition of pathetic.

I say man the damn harpoon and feed the fat bastard until he blows since he like to eat so much.

[secondtonone317]

[TheWolf]

[brndck]

i like the movie "seven".

[s13doc]

how do you eat 50 dollars worth of jerky in the store without someone saying something

[allntrlundrgrnd]

the milkshake bit made me lol.

but seriously they should just roll him down a huge hill into 5 foot bowling pins as punishment. that might be as embarasing as crushing 5 milkshakes and refusing to pay for it

That's not embarassing to him, he has no shame. Force the lap band surgery then put him in jail!

someone did say something. that's why he was prosecuted.

[HyperTek]

thats what im sayin lol.. he knows no shame.. him pigging out = heaven.

I bet this is the result of turning to eat when you got problems/fustrations, which eventually lead to not giving a fck about anything anymore.

good luck pushing away some 600 lb fat bastard.
he probably managed to stuff that much food before the cops detained him.

How the fuck can you drink five milkshakes? I'd be blowing three foot fountains of shit sideways.

[ronmcdon]

it's not that hard to down 5 shakes.
they make them so small these days.
I've had 7 Guiness floats in a single sitting before.
The indegestion afterwards is another matter

[Matej]

All fatties should be exiled to live in 3rd world countries among people dying of starvation.

[lewisfk]

[g-via]

The 'large' bags have like 6 pieces in them and cost about 8 bucks.

It wouldn't be that difficult for a 600 pound man.

[singlecamslam]

umm, just shoot him. If i was 600 pounds i would somehow kill myself.

[fliprayzin240sx]

So the fatties can eat the skinnies...

[Matej]

So the fatties can eat the skinnies...
Or the other way around.

Survival of the hungriest.

[aziankingz]
