A local man who pleaded no contest to charges he arranged his wife's rape Tuesday learned his fate in court.

Anthony Smith

A judge sentenced Anthony Charles Smith (pictured, left) to 10 months in jail, Local 4 learned. Authorities said the man arranged the attack of his wife last June to pay off his $5,000 gambling debt.

Police said that the incident happened while the husband laid awake next to her in the Continental Trailer Park, located near Eight Mile and Dequindre roads in Warren. The attacker told Smith to put his face down in a pillow, then began to assault his wife, according to police.

After committing three sexual acts on the woman, the attacker told the husband that he owed $5,000, then left without incident, according to Detective David Andrews.

Smith told police that he lost money playing pool at the Bottoms Up East lounge. His debt reportedly grew to $5,000, according to police.

The woman was reportedly unaware of the gambling debt.

The couple is now divorced, according to Local 4 reports.

Just when the DOJ tells us that violent crime, rape, sodomy etc. is going down the people that do these despictable crimes prove them wrong everytime!

"appropriate punishment for the judge"

YEah! Lose his darn job. I didn't look to see what state that judge resides in, so I don't know what the procedure is for appointing judges. I know that here in missouri, when judges are up for 'vote'.....most people don't have a CLUE who they are voting for because there are no campaigns. The people who know judges personally from cases or attys are in "the know" so to speak. There has GOT to be a better system than this.

I have a question for you. When people are arrested and put in jail prior to the pretrial hearing... do guilty people tend to act belligerent while innocent people are polite?

Its amazing he even got married in the first place.

That's what I can't understand. How is it that these Neanderthals manage to get so much - girlfriends, marraiges, etc.?
