FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla. (AP) - Darrell Wayne Condit, younger brother of Rep. Gary Condit, was arrested Sunday for failing to appear in court in November to face a charge of possessing a fraudulent driver's license. The FBI issued the warrant for his arrest last week. Fort Lauderdale police found Condit, 50, at 9 a.m. in a bar on State Road 84, FBI Special Agent Paul Russell told the South Florida Sun-Sentinel.

Condit was being held Sunday in Broward County jail.

The FBI say Condit failed to appear for a court summons in November on the fraudulent driver's license charges, for which he was arrested on Sept. 7.

Before that, Condit was arrested July 22 in Broward County on a Monroe County warrant for failing to meet probation conditions on a 1996 DUI arrest.

The Broward Sheriff's Office also charged him with resisting arrest without violence, driving with a suspended license and misdemeanor possession of marijuana.

Arrested at 9AM in a bar. Ouch!

He should have gotten a license in Arkansas or Tennessee.
I hear they give out some pretty good ones there.

Interesting. I wonder why the FBI has jurisdiction in a state driver's license matter? There must be more to the story.

My thoughts exactly. Could it be the FBI thinks Ol' Darrell has more to tell about Chandra and they are puttin' the squeeze on him?

So he got picked up on having a fake ID in Broward County? He was simply waiting for the polls to open.

Have you ever seen this guy? I know you can't always judge by looks, but this guy definetly looks like a thug.

[kassie]

One looks like a thug and one looks like Manson, the psycho. What a family portrait, I'd hate to see the rest of them.

[leadpenny]

Just had a friend FReep mail me with the same suggestion.
This might be one base that Gary didn't cover well enough.
Darrell could spend a lot of time in jail.
That is, unless he has something important to say.

An article in the "Modesto Bee" says the FBI thinks he might have gone there. If criminals cross state lines, isn't that reason enough for the FBI to get involved? I think so.

[Lee'sGhost]

It's reason enough, but not motivation enough. This kind of low-level criminal activity (crossing state lines) happens all the time and the FBI doesn't even twitch. I really think there's go to be more to it.

I think not. Not unless they are fleeing to avoid a FEDERAL prosecution. The Feebs only get involved in feral gooberment cases,not state cases.

Then again,just wait until we get our new national ID's! Having a fake one of these babies WOULD be a federal offense,and get the Feebs after your butt.

He looks more like Willie Nelson . . .

Must be the young man did not tell the cops who he was..

[spectre]

"Young man"

This guy looks like forty miles of bad road.

spectre....

I was trying to be charitable, sort of feel that way this morning. He did not deserve Gary for a brother, no matter what. Har T Har.
