Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis interrupted a hearing and volunteered to testify on Thursday.
During a hearing to determine if she would be disqualified in an election interference case, attorneys for the defense argued that Willis should testify.
"She needs to go on the record," one attorney demanded.
Seconds later, the camera panned to Willis entering the courtroom. She tried to interrupt, but the judge initially shut her down.

"Just a moment, Ms. Willis," Judge Scott McAfee said, adding, "Does Ms. Willis want to take the lead here?"
"I'm ready to go," Willis said before taking the stand.
The judge, however, called a recess after the court could not find a clean copy of a document requested by the district attorney.
