Glass-Eaters Sentenced
Status: Scam
Here's a couple that were making a career out of the inappropriate things found in food scam.Ronald Evano and his wife Mary would go to a restaurant, purposefully eat glass, get themselves hospitalized, and then threaten to sue the restaurant. They did this at least a dozen times and collected over $200,000 in compensation. The AP reports:
Evano said in court that he and his wife ate the glass because they needed money. "We would go to a restaurant, and I'd say I had glass in my food," Evano said. "Then I would go to the hospital and say I was in pain." Over the years, one or both claimed to have eaten glass at establishments in Braintree and Quincy, Mass.; Bethesda and Gaithersburg, Md.; Washington D.C.; Providence, R.I.; and Midlothian, Va. The couple used false names, Social Security numbers and identity cards. Evano is in custody and is to be sentenced next month. He could receive up to 100 years in prison.
The things some people will do for money.

Hmm
They'd possibly got away with it if they'd just done it once.

They'd possibly got away with it if they'd just done it once.
If they had taken jobs at one of those restaurants, they'd have made way more than $200,000 over those years, without even having to eat any glass.

How much of that $200,000 was spent on medical bills? Or did they scam the hospitals also?
