A Florida man accused of beating his disabled girlfriend told police he was tired of taking care of her and preferred to go to jail, according to an arrest report.
Patrick Moan, 37, was arrested Sunday for beating the woman, who has no arms or legs, the Miami Herald reported.
The woman, who is in a wheelchair, was unable to call the cops on her live-in boyfriend because he broke her phone two weeks ago.
So Moan agreed to wheel her to a Vero Beach Walmart so she could tell someone. Moan ended up telling a patron himself in the hopes he “could go to jail.”
The woman told police that Moan hits her two times a month when he drinks but she has not called cops because of her condition
Moan later admitted to authorities that he has hit the woman in the past because he is “tired of taking care of her and pushing her in her wheelchair everywhere.” He also believed if he confessed “he would no longer have to take care of her and she would become the state’s problem.”
Moan was charged with battery and is being held at the Indian River County Jail.
