A man named Richard Verone walked into a bank in North Carolina, handed the teller a note demanding $1, and then calmly sat down to wait for the police. Why? Because he was desperate for medical care and saw prison as his only option to get treatment.
He had a growth in his chest and other health issues, but no job, no insurance, and no way to pay for a doctor. So he made a heartbreaking decision — get arrested so he could finally see a physician in jail.
He didn’t want to hurt anyone. He didn’t want money. He just wanted help.
It’s a sobering reminder of how badly the system can fail people. No one should have to commit a crime just to see a doctor. No one.
