Nebraska’s Marquel Dismuke clears up bench warrant

See, was it that hard?

Back in July, Marquel Dismuke was cited by Lincoln Police Department officers for driving on a suspended license after being pulled over for failing to display a front license plate. Last month, the Nebraska safety pleaded guilty in the case and was ordered to appear in court Wednesday of this week for sentencing. The only problem? Dismuke failed to appear for that court date.

Earlier this week, it was reported that a bench warrant had been issued for Dismuke in connection to that missed sentencing appearance. Amidst that totally avoidable brouhaha, the Lincoln Journal-Star has reported that Dismuke cleared up the warrant by appearing at a hearing Thursday in which he was fined $100 plus court costs.

Two months prior to the July citation, Dismuke was fined $150 after being cited for, you guessed it, driving on a suspended license.

After playing in 19 games (one start) the past two years, Dismuke has started all eight games for Nebraska in 2019. The junior defensive back is second on the Cornhuskers in tackles with 51 and tied for third in pass breakups with three.
