A 44-year-old man is facing a felony charge for failing to pay child support. Wessley Kelly allegedly owes $21,574 in back child support. Macomb County Prosecutor Pete Lucido cited this case as an example of the statewide problem of people skipping out on child support payments.

The Macomb County prosecutor's office has started a pilot program to reduce the amount of owed child support. According to Prosecutor Lucido, the program is showing positive results, but more work is needed to address the issue.

Further details about the case and the pilot program are available from the source. The prosecutor's efforts aim to tackle the widespread problem of unpaid child support.
