Family Matters Actor Darius McCrary Judge Delays Sentencing

Darius McCrary won't be sentenced for missing a court appearance related to his failure to pay child support until next year McCrary' son Zechariah sat in court Friday morning  he apparently didn't want to speak but he did write a letter to the judge indicating he's not a victim. In response, the state has argued children of people not paying child support are victims, regardless of Zechariah's feelings. Darius also addressed the court  lamenting his struggles during the 2023 actors and writers strikes as well as some life-threatening injury he says he suffered. McCrary was arrested October 5 near the Mexico border. He was picked up in a fugitive arrest due to the fact his warrant was issued out of Michigan. At the time of his arrest, a Customs and Border Protection spokesperson told us Darius had been trying to re-enter the U.S. from Mexico when he was apprehended. During his first court appearance in San Diego, Darius attempted to represent himself, which was a huge mistake. The 49-year-old actor baffled the judge by repeatedly insisting he was in court "on special appearance the judge decided to give Darius a public defender, saying Darius "is unable to understand and appreciate the legalities of these proceedings." Afterwards, Darius was extradited from San Diego to Michigan, where the warrant was issued.
