Update:

"'They were supposed to have been lifted it two years ago, but they didn't,' Harris said.

Secretary of State records show Harris' license was first suspended in 2010 for unpaid child support in Saginaw County.

Then in 2022, court records show that a judge rescinded that suspension, allowing Harris to drive again. But it appears that information never got to the Secretary of State where even as of Thursday afternoon, Harris' license is still listed as suspended — the same records police and the judge were going by."

Oh my god the twist

Look at how quick everyone was to pass judgement on the guy even though this wasn't his fault. Just as bad as Reddit, straight mob justice mentality, pitchforks and all

Except it turns out that's all bullshit, he didn't ever have a license. Follow-up with the judge was today. And the kicker is that he has a warrant for his arrest for a driving violation from another county, so he went to jail.

Update from today. He never had a valid driver's license. My wife just played me the whole session from today. Some interesting items:

  • His suspension wasn't lifted, not because of a clerical error, but because he didn't pay it.
  • The suspension was irrelevant anyway because he never had a driver's license. With the suspension, if he had gone in and taken the test to get a license, it would have immediately been suspended and he couldn't drive, but that's moot because he didn't have a license.
  • When the cops pulled him over, they asked if he had a license and he said no.
  • It turns out that he has a warrant out for his arrest for a driving violation in another county, so they took him to jail.

All the crap he said about being innocent was just lies.
