When they met with Gov. LePage, extremists asked him to change a manual on Sovereign Citizens used by the Maine Criminal Justice Academy.
As the Bangor Daily News and Mike Tipping reported, two individuals from that group were recently arrested.
And, it turns out that a reason for their arrests — a lack of a valid drivers’ license — was cited in the police manual.
You can see this below, as number 7 in the list, from page 11 of the manual. (You can see the full manual at this link.)
It’s important to note that neither of these men forgot to renew their licenses. They simply believe that state government has no legitimate right to require them.
This but one example of the group’s fantasies about our legal system and Constitution.
