He did it to impress his wife and save his marriage...for sure now they get a divorce!
An Oklahoma man desperate to save his marriage by appearing like a hero to his wife ended up in police custody on suspicion of staging a crime where he hired burglars and foiled their fake robbery attempt, police said.
Trent Spencer, 27, of Edmond, north of Oklahoma City, was charged this week with the misdemeanor crime of filing a false report, said police spokeswoman Glynda Chu.
According to police, Spencer, a high school teacher, paid two students $100 each to break into his house and try to make off with a stereo.
The masked students tied his wife with duct tape and her husband was in the house just in time to foil the supposed crime, police said.
Police said Spencer attacked the two in a choreographed fight, even hitting one with a board that he had cut to break in half. The plan was going well until his wife freed herself and called police, something Spencer did not anticipate, police said...

This guy is lucky that the wife didn't get her hands on a gun or weapon of some sort and attack the two boys. Then he would be not only responsible for a false report but possibly the lives of one of those kids. I guess he didn't take into consideration that if he did even manage to go through with this that there would be some type of investigation, and that $100 probably wouldn't be enough to keep those kids quiet. When will people learn that it never pays to break the law, no matter how good one's intentions are?
