Stump Speaks On Arrest

Stump Speaks On Arrest

As we mentioned yesterday, Fall Out Boy lead singer Patrick Stump was busted in Beverly Hills late Tuesday night. He was arrested because of a traffic warrant out for his arrest due to him driving without a valid license. He was then released from jail about four hours later on $15,000 bail.

Now, the balding rocker is speaking out.

He says:

“All I really have to say is ignorance of the law isn’t innocence. I didn’t want to give up my Illinois driver’s license and was unaware that was a crime. It is, by the way, in the state of California. Lesson learned. I technically broke a law, so technically I deserve whatever I get. But man, is my mom gonna be pissed.”

Worst case, if he gets convicted he could face a maximum of six months in jail and/or a $1,000 fine. But odds are he’ll get off with some sort of small penalty and a slap on the hand.

Thankfully he wasn’t drunk or wasted when he was arrested.

And, don’t worry, we’re sure your momma still loves ya.
