Federal prosecutors claim social media posts undermine the reason former U.S. Rep. Mel Reynolds cited for traveling to South Africa in violation of his bond.
Reynolds was arrested for violating the terms of his bond Monday when he arrived at the Atlanta airport after a flight from South Africa.
His lawyer tells the Chicago Tribune that he's scheduled to appear in court Thursday afternoon.
During a brief hearing Wednesday, prosecutors said Reynolds' 23-year-old daughter posted updates from Berlin in February, when he was supposed to be taking care of her in Africa.
Reynolds has been allowed to travel to Africa twice since he pleaded not guilty last year to four misdemeanor counts of failing to file a tax return.
He's scheduled for trial May 2 in Chicago.
