Accused robber blames mental illness

The court system hasn’t given up on Abraham Wilson Jr., but he may have given up on it. Wilson is being held in the Clay County Jail, facing charges that he led officers on a high-speed car chase on Jan. 8 that ended in Moorhead after he allegedly robbed Cornerstone Bank in Fargo. Police also think he’s responsible for the Jan. 6 robbery of Stop-N-Go at 3220 12th Ave. N. In a phone interview from the jail, Wilson told The Forum on Monday he won’t fight the charges. He said with what authorities have on him, he “doesn’t have a snowball’s chance.”
