'I'm pulling into my doctor's office, actually'
As Harris joined the meeting Judge Simpson asked: “Are you driving?”
Harris replied, “Actually, “I'm pulling into my doctor's office, actually.”
“Wait. What are we doing?” Simpson shot back.
The defendant requested for an adjournment of the case, which was denied by the court. Simpson has revoked Harris’ bond in the matter and ordered him to turn himself into the Washington County Jail.
A video of the incident shows Simpson saying, “ No I’m looking at his record, he doesn’t have a license. He’s suspended and he’s just driving."
‘Did he drive himself to jail too?’
Harris’ actions have left netizens lauging out loud, with many of them coming up with hilarious reactions. “Did he drive himself to jail too? You can’t make this up,” commented an X user on Collin Rugg's post. Another wrote, “Funniest court video of the year. Unbelievable. Will surely be on “World’s Dumbest Criminals”. “This is hilarious. He told the judge to hold on while he finished driving on a suspended license.” one user said, while another wrote, “you can’t fix stupid. That’s as bad as the lady that called the cops because the person she was selling drugs to ran off without paying her.”
