This is the best summary I could come up with:


ANN ARBOR, Mich. โ€” A Michigan man appearing virtually in a Washtenaw County court hearing earlier this month was ordered by a judge to turn himself in after his camera showed him actively driving under a suspended license.

Corey Harris, 44, was scheduled to attend the hearing for charges stemming from an earlier arrest in Pittsfield Township, just south of Ann Arbor.

Michigan has a law on its books prohibiting the use of cell phones and other electronic devices while driving.

Harris remained on camera, a look of grim realization dawning on his face, while lawyers affirmed to Simpson that he had just broadcast to the entire courtroom that he was driving without a valid license.

Harris continued broadcasting in the court Zoom as he rolled his head back in disbelief and said, "Oh my god."

Harris was released from custody two days later, and is scheduled to appear in court again June 5.
