Fall Out Boy’s Patrick Stump was arrested in the wee hours of the California morning for driving without a valid license, and shortly after being sprung from the pokey (on $15,000 bail) he had this to say to MTV: “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.” The charge is a misdemeanor, and the penalties could range from him paying a $1,000 fine to probation to up to six months in the county lockup. Oh, paperwork.
