New way to fund a wedding?

In October a Michigan sheriff offered to perform a wedding ceremony for two thieves who’d been knocking over banks to fund their nuptials.

All they had to do was turn themselves in.

“I’ll volunteer to marry them in jail if they surrender,” said Lapeer County Sheriff Ron Kalanquin.

The couple robbed a bank of $5,000 a few weeks ago to buy wedding rings and pay for other expenses related to their wedding.

There’s no word as to whether the couple turned themselves in or not.
