U.S. banknotes may have the
phrase “In God We Trust” printed
on the back, but a 21-year-old
man discovered that trust does not
extend to cheques signed by God.
Kevin Russell was arrested Monday after he
tried to cash a check for $50,000 at the Chase
Bank in Hobart, Indiana, that was signed
“King Saviour, King of Kings, Lord of Lords,
Servant,” 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 misdemeanour. 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.
Russell had several other checks with him that
were signed by God but made out in different
dollar amounts, including one for $100,000.
“I’ve heard about God giving out eternal life,
but this is the first time I’ve heard of him
giving out cash,” Detective White noted.
