Lt. Governor Mandela Barnes says he paid a fine for unpaid parking tickets so he could register a vehicle he used to own.
A Milwaukee municipal judge fined Barnes $108 for not paying three tickets. They were for an improperly registered vehicle a meter violation and for parking too close to a crosswalk. A two-month deadline passed without Barnes paying.
Barnes says he had no idea he had the tickets. He says he sold the car to one of his mother’s friends last November.
