One of the oldest games in town is to claim chest pain or seizures to try to get out of jail. I can’t count how many times I have seen that gig.
Best was the guy laying on the floor flopping around. Walked in and asked him what was going on. He stops, looks up and says “I’m having a seizure, dumb***.” Then went back to flopping around.
Suddenly you’re terminally ill. Its just a matter of time.
