Darius McCrary was seen for the primary time Wednesday since his arrest final week and he selected to signify himself throughout a court hearing, however the one downside was … he did not seem to know what the f*** was occurring.
As TMZ beforehand reported, McCrary was arrested October 5 on a warrant out of Michigan stemming from a missed court look associated to his failure to pay baby assist.
At his arraignment immediately in a San Diego courtroom, the “Family Matters” alum selected to forego a lawyer, opting to signify himself … which was an enormous mistake.
Near the start of the hearing … Darius addressed the court, stating, “I’d like to say I’m here on special appearance,” which confused the hell out of the choose, who requested him, “Especially appearing for whom?”
But, Darius repeated that he was “here on special appearance,” prompting the choose once more to ask, “Sir, who are you specially appearing for?” Darius responded, “Specially appearing for Darius McCrary. I’m here. I’m here.” And issues solely went additional down hill from there.
In reality, after some time, the choose — apparently having had sufficient — determined to offer him a public defender, explaining McCrary “is unable to understand and appreciate that legalities of these proceedings.” But, McCray was capable of argue for bail whereas prosecutors requested no bail and the choose dominated in favor of prosecutors.
Finally, on the finish of the hearing, McCrary agreed to be extradited again to Michigan and Michigan authorities now have 30 days to select him up from the San Diego jail. ABC 10News in San Diego has footage and recorded video of immediately’s hearing.
Meanwhile, a number of information retailers erroneously reported McCrary was headed to Tijuana, Mexico, when he acquired arrested on the warrant.
However, TMZ has realized from Customs and Border Patrol the other is true. A CBP Spokesperson completely tells TMZ … “On Oct. 5, 2025, Darius McCrary, a U.S. citizen, was detained by U.S. Customs and Border Protection while attempting to enter the United States through the San Ysidro Port of Entry due to having an active arrest warrant. He was turned over to local law enforcement.”
