Today, what is it? I'm a donkey. Say it again, Charlemagne. I'm a donkey. Yes, you are a donkey. I'll show you how to act a donkey. Everything that Charlemagne is saying is true. Yes, donkey of the day.

For Thursday, May 30th, it's a double donkey. Yes, the two subjects involved, both will get the credit they deserve for being stupid. So the heat goes to a man named Corey Harris. Now, Corey is from Washtenaw County, Michigan. And the haul goes to the Honorable Judge Cedric Simpson. Okay, let's discuss. Now, you know ever since COVID, people have been having to go to court via Zoom. I don't know if it's for sure Zoom, but it's some type of video conference thing.

And Corey Harris was ordered to appear before the court on a video conference for driving on a suspended license I repeat Corey Harris was ordered to appear before the court on a video conference that context is very important So when you listening to this audio just know that the judge in the courtroom can see Corey the court can see him that context is very important So once again, remember he's on a video conference for driving on a suspended license. Okay, that is the charge. Would you like to know why Corey is getting donkey today? Let's go to Local 4 News for the report, please.

Ever since some court proceedings went on Zoom, you really never know what to expect. And this judge did not see this coming. Mr. Harris, are you driving? Ashley, I'm pulling into my doctor's office. Actually, just give me one second. You can see the shock on his face. Judge Cedric Simpson, nearly speechless. She's stationary. I'm pulling in right now at this second. Yes, I am. This hearing happened on May 15th in Washtenaw County. The defendant, Corey Harris, had a suspended license yet joined the court proceeding from behind the wheel. The defendant, Corey Harris, had a suspended license yet joined the court

proceeding from behind the wheel. The judge needed to get something straight. I'm looking at his record. He doesn't have a license. He's suspended and he's just driving. That is correct, Your Honor. I don't even know why he would do that. So defendant's bond is revoked in this matter. Defendant is turning himself into the Washtenaw County Jail by 6 p.m. today. Oh my God. Turning himself in will result in a bench warrant with no bond this man was on a video conference for driving on a suspended license while he was driving now it's obvious why cory's getting donkey today right cory we can see you my brother i need to know the thought process like you woke up said

your prayers brushed your teeth did your daily affirmations i don't know what your morning routine is but at some point you made a choice you made a conscious decision to say i gotta go to the doctor and i don't got nobody to drive me but i also don't have a license and i also have to go to court via video conference because i don't have a license because i was driving without one so at some point your brain told you that's perfectly okay okay. This is fine. I'm going to just jump on the video conference while I'm driving, even though I'm in virtual court for driving with a suspended license. Well, Corey, if you don't give a damn, we don't give a fornication under the consent of the king either. Okay. The other part of Corey's situation that bothers me is that man wasn't quick on his feet

at all. Soon as the judge would have said to me, are you driving? I would have said, no, sir, this is a Tesla. Okay, I would have threw my hands up and said, this is a self-driving car. Look, judge, no hands. Okay, Judge Simpson wouldn't have known what to do. Now, I told y'all this was a double donkey of the day. Corey gets the he. Judge Cedric Simpson needs the heart. The reason I'm giving Judge Cedric Simpson the heart is because Judge Cedric Simpson required him to report to the county jail later the same day.

The man only had a public defender, and the public defender requested an adjournment of the case, and Judge Simpson said, no, go to jail, go directly to jail, do not pass gold, do not collect $200. Judge, I'm not saying you should have let him off because people have to be responsible for the consequences of their actions, but damn it, Judge, at least hear the full story. Have him come to the courthouse immediately so you can hear more, but just don't send the brother to jail. The man was headed to the doctor. You know how hard it is to get some brothers to go to the doctor?

Judge Simpson, you black, you should understand. If this man had a doctor's appointment and didn't have anyone else to take him and took a risk like this, you know, to go to the doctor, clearly something is wrong. I don't want to self-diagnose anyone, but I am a doctor myself, in case you didn't know. I have an honorary doctorate from South Carolina State University. Drop one of those bombs for South Carolina State.

Unbelievable. So if I had to diagnose Corey, I'm going to say he has high blood pressure. He's trying to get that down. His LDL cholesterol is too high. He might even be diabetic. All of that is causing issues with his heart. Therefore, the man had to go see the doctor, Judge Cedric Simpson, okay, because he's dying. All right?

And you must be the 10 man because you need a heart. I didn't say let the man off, but, you know, due to the circumstances, at least call him in the court and hear him out. Okay? Hell, the man might need a psychological evaluation because I see a lot of Beetlejuice from Howard Stern show around his eyes. Just look past his glasses. You can see the Beetlejuice from Howard Stern show around his eyes. Just look past his glasses. You can see the Beetlejuice from Howard Stern right around his eyes. He looks on a lot of levels like Beetlejuice's half-brother. They got the same daddy, different mamas.

The moral of the story is jail cannot always be the answer all the time. People are being forced to make decisions off a series of circumstances, most of them financial. What if he didn't have extra money for Uber? He clearly didn't have no money for an attorney Dr. Bill is piling up can barely afford his statin for his cholesterol Dammit judge have some compassion and give Beetlejuice brother a break Please give Corey Harris and judge Cedric Simpson the biggest hee-haw

Just ain't got no compassion for that man Certainly not in your claim because first of all the only I do have compassion because you said he was dying Jess ain't got no compassion for that man. I'm certainly not. And you a clown. Because first of all, the only, I do have compassion because you said he was dying. And you don't know that. You don't know if that man is dying. And then. I am a doctor. He was dark.

I'm no damn doctor. No, you're not. You paid for it. No, he was, he was dark around his eyes. Just like you was dark around your eyes years and years ago. So you cannot say. And I had high blood pressure. That's on you.

That's on you. That just must run in his family. That might run in his family. You don't know. And we don't even know why he was in court. My cholesterol is over 240. He could have been in court for a driving suspense. Maybe he did something driving.

Maybe he got into an accident. We don't know why he was in court. Why the judge suspended his license. But what are you talking about? He had a suspended license. That's why he was something driving. Maybe he got into an accident. We don't know why he was in court. Why the judge suspended his license. But what are you talking about? He had a suspended license. That's why he was in court. But we don't know why his license was suspended. We don't know if he just didn't pay something.

If that was the reason why he didn't have insurance. Or if he got into an accident. Or if it was a DUI. We don't know why. It don't matter why his license was suspended. The fact of the matter is, he didn't have a license and he was driving. And he answered the phone and told him, See, wait a minute.

I'm about to pull right into this. Hold one second hold on one second yeah one second excuse me we don't know why that man was going to the doctor that is what we should be thinking about no y'all should think about that no he should you said he ain't have enough for lyft or uber but you driving a car that needs gas what are are you talking about? We don't even, it could have been stolen. And you have a copay. You have a copay when you go to the doctor. Times is hard, Jess. I got to steal cars to get to the doctor to pay for things that I can't even afford.

Times is hard. Have some sympathy for this man. Some empathy. Oh, my God. All right. Got me spitting all over these people's microphones. I know. I see it. You do that anyway. You, my God. All right. Got me spitting all over these people's microphones. I know, I see it.

You do that anyway. You do that anyway. All right. Whoa, pause. That's crazy. That was crazy. Y'all, you just can't stop, won't stop. I'm glad I ain't gay.
