How afraid of your wife must you be if you lie about getting robbed just so you dont get yelled at or in trouble? What an idiot!
Don't Lie to the Cops, Or The Wife
Police say one man did both, but not very well.

Which is more punishing—the law or a scorned spouse?
Springfield police say one man was betting on the latter, when he allegedly lied to them about being robbed.
It turns out, police say, the man had been at a go-go bar in Newark, and got lost driving home, eventually winding up in Springfield. When his wife became worried he was late, she kept calling him, and he eventually told her he'd just been robbed at gunpoint—rather than admit he was at the go-go bar, police said.
But things got a little more complicated when the wife offered to call 911 for the man, police said. He instead told her he'd do it ... and then did.
When cops who responded thought the man's story didn't quite add up (the supposed robbers hadn't taken his cell phone, and he would have passed be several well-lit 24-hour convenience stores before deciding to pull over into a dark lot), they pushed further, and learned the real story, police said
