An Ohio man is being charged with a felony after he made an incredibly idiotic joke about his ex-wife possibly having Ebola.

Cleveland.com reports that while Emanuel Smith, 60, was gambling at the Horseshoe Casino in Ohio, he told the dealer he was trying to avoid his sick ex-wife who had just returned from West Africa, according to the Ohio Casino Control Commission.

But his defense attorney, Kathleen DeMetz, said everything was overly dramatic.

“People were having a general discussion about the current situation,” she said. “He made a comment regarding his former wife who had traveled to Africa sometime in the past and that he tries to stay away from her.”

According to the casino commission, Smith is being charged with criminal trespassing and accused of “entering a place of amusement to cause a disturbance.”  Cleveland Judge Ed Wade set Smith’s bail at 10k.
