Man Charged After Having No valid Drivers License For Three Decades
The Cocke County Sheriff’s office arrested a man last weekend who has not had a valid drivers license for nearly 30 years. Cocke County Seargent Ronnie Sutton stated that he watched as a black 4 door sedan sped past him at the intersection of US 321 and Hwy 160. That driver was pulled over and identified himself as James Stuart. That however turned out to be false as his real name was Christopher Smith. Smith was found to not have a valid license because his had been revoked back in 2016. It turnes out that Smith had not had a valid drivers license since 1997…29 years ago.
When Smith was arrested and searched, he was found with a set of brass knuckles in his back pocket. Besides driving on a revoked license, Smith also faces charges of Criminal Impersonation and Possession of Prohibited Weapons.
