A famous YouTube star who was accused of attempting to murder a police officer shouted at a judge in a bizarre anger during his hearing.
Erik van Conover, 35, a maker of content that shares luxury real estate properties with his nearly three million subscribers, was arrested on March 15 after he reportedly mowed New Hampshire Bartlett Patrol Officer Cameron Emmett during a routine tiller stop.
Emmett tried to cross converge after he went past him in his jeep and 55-60 MPH went in a 35 mph zone at West Side Road, Bartlett Police Sgt. Brian Moffitt said in court that the Conway Daily Sun reported.
After he was reportedly running over the officer and had thrown him an estimated 20-40ft, conovert continued to drive another 28 miles until he was officially drawn and arrested, according to judicial documents obtained by the outlet.
During his hearing, Conover said that the whole situation is only a 'huge misunderstanding', insisting that he is a 'public figure' because of his big next online.
“I have everything here, and it is all forged,” he said, lifting police paper work on his case.
'If someone dares to try to test my mental competence, I will now expel every person with my intelligence. And that is not selfish, “the YouTuber added.
At another moment he shouted: 'Mom! Thank goodness, look at me!, While his parents joined the hearing of the virtual court.

His father and mother then tried to calm him down, as she told her son, “Eric, Eric, we are here to help you.”
Conway Circuit judge Charles Greenhalgh ordered Convers without having to be held pending his likely hearing on Tuesday
Convers also took a moment to pray and recited the 'our father' prayer while putting on a blue prison jumpsuit.
The content maker insisted that the police reportedly had the wrong person because he told Magistrate Judge Mark Howard that he is from New York, not Absecon, New Jersey, as authorities claim that he is.
“This seems to be a huge misunderstanding. I am exactly who I say I am. I'm a YouTuber, “he went on.
Moffitt said the incident started after Emmett convermen had reached the legal limit almost twice.
Emmett subsequently chased conovert and managed to stop him, but then the moment became violent.
'While officer Emmett left his vehicle, he went to the back of his cruiser, and you, Mr. Convers, then quickly supported his vehicle, pointed it directly to officer Emmett and accelerated at him, and hit him at a fairly high speed, “Moffitt said in court.
“We are very happy that an amateur -drone operator was in the air when he saw the interaction and was able to catch it on video.”

After he was reportedly hit the officer, conovert continued to drive to the city of Carroll and was eventually chased by representatives at the Sheriff's Office of Carroll County.
The entire chase lasted 38 miles until conver was stopped by state police officers who use Spike strips on the road to stop him.
Keith Blair, a Carroll County lawyer who represents the state, said: “You know, the position of the state is that when a law enforcement officer indicates you to stop and stop, you should do this.”
In the meantime, the lawyer of Conover, Nicholas Howie, said that his client 'denies these allegations' and 'does not agree with the reports as they are mentioned'.

During the court, Moffitt raised that the YouTube star had been arrested just a few days earlier for charges.
Converse claimed that he was only accused of possession of marijuana during that incident. He was later released about personal recognition.
Judge of Conway Circuit Charles Greenhalgh ordered conver to be held without a bail pending his likely hearing on Tuesday with regard to the attempted murder.
He is also accused of the disobedient of an officer, reckless operation, second degree attack, first degree attack with a fatal weapon, reckless behavior with a fatal weapon and behavior after accident, according to judicial documents obtained by DailyMail.com.

For De Duik, it is expected that Conover will appear in court on 14 April, according to records.
Dailymail.com contacted the Carroll County Attorney Office and Howie for comments.

In the clip, the first episode of his podcast, he said that from March 14 – a day before his arrest – “” 1,566 days of alcohol, he was sober. ”
'I start this podcast as an act of service. If I really think about it and think about it, this podcast is so important to me because it is literally the first time in a decade of online content online that I make something of conscious intention, instead of coercion, “he said.
“I had a scarce mentality for far too long in my life and getting sober was a awakening.”
His bio on his channel reads: 'This channel is investigating houses built for energetic resonance and human expansion.
“From luxury estates designed with frequency -based intelligence to real estate steeped in ancient wisdom and quantum design principles, these are the spaces that form the future of conscious living.”
