Music & Life: Bad Boy Singer Mario Winans Arrested for Unpaid Child Support
According to TMZ.com Former Bad Boy Records singer/producer Mario Winans got arrested for some serious deadbeat daddery … as in $178,000 … TMZ has learned. That child support is no joke. Especially in NJ. Word to the wise….stay up on your payments or get a revision if your income drops. Don’t fall behind. Especially in the 100’s of thousands.
Sheriff’s deputies took Mario — who is featured on Diddy‘s hit, “I Need a Girl Part 2” — into custody Wednesday in Bergen County, New Jersey for failure to pay back child support. According to docs, he’s supposed to be paying $3,500 per month for his kid … so he’s clearly way behind.
In docs, Mario says he makes about $3,000 per month off his songwriting. He told the court he could secure a loan to immediately pay offr $10,000 off the debt.
That satisfied the judge enough that Winans was released, but with a GPS ankle monitor. Well DAMN!
