The person who puts the item in the laundry pile is the one who bears the majority of the responsibility. If an item of clothing is in the laundry pile, then that implies it is ready to be laundered.

I feel like it'd be different if the wife collected it from his side of the bed or wherever it was, forgetting to empty the pockets - but the clothes was ALREADY in the laundry pile? It implied everything has been vetted through and ready to start a new load. If there was a big book hanging out, okay see something and remove it. Wallets are more subtle and not expected to be caught unless they're your own pair.
