Coming up next on our list of news stories, we have a rather interesting one. We all know that making mistakes is a part of being human, but sometimes those mistakes can be quite awkward, as one driver found out. Corey Harris, from Michigan in the US, was recently involved in a pre-trial hearing for driving with a suspended license. However, things took a rather unexpected turn when it became apparent that he had dialed into the hearing while actually behind the wheel of his car.
As the hearing began, Judge J Cedric Simpson was taken aback when he saw Harris sitting in the driver's seat of his car, wearing a seatbelt and looking around for a place to park. Harris then asked for a slight delay in the proceedings, explaining that he was currently pulling into his doctor's office and needed a moment to park. This caught the attention of both the judge and Harris's lawyer, Natalie Pate, who requested for the hearing to be adjourned for up to four weeks.
It was clear to everyone that Harris was indeed driving while participating in the hearing, and he even admitted to pulling into his doctor's office and searching for a parking spot. Judge Simpson was understandably perplexed and asked for clarification, "So maybe I don't understand something. This is a driver with a suspended license?" When Ms. Pate confirmed this, the judge went on to ask, "And he was just driving? And he didn't have a license?"
The hearing then fell into an awkward silence as Harris seemed to realize the gravity of the situation. Ms. Pate finally spoke up, confirming that Harris was aware of the charges against him. The judge then looked through Harris's record and discovered that he did not have a valid license. He then expressed his confusion, "I don't know why he would do that."
Throughout the rest of the hearing, Harris seemed to want to speak up at several points, but ultimately decided against it. The judge eventually revoked his bond and ordered him to turn himself in at the county jail by 6pm that evening. Harris, clearly taken aback, sighed and exclaimed, "Oh my god" before looking up at the roof of his car.
According to reports, Harris was booked into the county jail and later released on bond. Ms. Pate assured him that she would be giving him a call after the hearing, to which Harris simply replied, "Okay," before the video feed cut out. The next hearing in the case is scheduled for June 5th.
