HOBART, Ind. - Kevin Russell found out it's not easy trying to cash a check from God. The 21-year-old man was arrested Monday after he tried to cash a check for $50,000 at the Chase Bank in Hobart that was signed "King Savior, King of Kings, Lord of Lords, Servant," Hobart police Detective Jeff White said. Russell was charged with one count attempted check fraud and one count intimidation, both felonies, and one count resisting law enforcement, a misdemeanor. He could face prison time.
Police were called to the bank after Russell tried to cash the check, which was written on an invalid Bank One check with no imprint, White said. Russell had several other checks with him that were signed the same way but made out in different dollar amounts, including one for $100,000.
Russell struggled with police as they tried to detain him, White said, and then threatened police as they transported him to the Hobart Police Department.
"I've heard about God giving out eternal life, but this is the first time I've heard of him giving out cash," White said.
No court date has been set for Russell. He was being held Wednesday at the Lake County Jail on a $1,000 bond.

I would think God would hook someone up with a little more than 50G. He got low-balled from The Almighty.

21 years old is too young to be a crackhead
lol
God's bank account probably had insufficient funds. That check bounced quicker than Lucifer being banned to the underworld.

Everyone knows God was never good with money...that's why the cover charge for church is a bitch.
Really, how could he have imagined he would get away with this?

Did you hear that story about the guy who cashed one of those fake checks they send you trying to get you to take out a loan? He just signed it and put it in an ATM, and after a long battle with the banks, he got to keep like 100 thousand or something.

I'd imagine God would get mad, nay, insulted if you tried to sever him in any way with a mortal weapon. Maybe some type of dark weapon, though....
