Darius McCrary Held Without Bond on Four Felony Child-Support Counts Ahead of Court Hearing

The case stems from a Michigan bench warrant issued after he missed a 2024 hearing.

Overview

  • U.S. Border Patrol arrested McCrary on Oct. 5 in San Diego near the U.S.–Mexico border, and he remains in custody without bond pending a hearing set for today, Oct. 15.
  • Michigan prosecutors say he faces up to four years in jail and allege he owed about $95,523 in back support as of March 31, 2024.
  • Prosecutors moved to revoke his bond after alleging he stopped payments while on release in late 2023, and a bench warrant followed a missed June 24, 2024 court date.
  • His representative argues he was not properly served because notice was mailed to a P.O. box, cites illness and caregiving in June 2024, and says direct support has not been credited.
  • Online records list him as a fugitive, and his team says he was traveling to Mexico for charitable housing work when detained.
