Karens are one of the most infuriating types of people, thinking they're above the law and believing everyone should follow their rules. But what happens when Karens abuse their powers as a worker and get arrested on the job? >> All right, go ahead and put your hands in front of you with your thumbs facing up, please. >> Is this going to go like on the news? >> Chances are it will, Jennifer. >> From refusing to leave work drunk to stealing from the cash register, these are times when entitled Karens get arrested at work. Starting with arguably one of the most shocking. No, this isn't resisting. >> This is resisting. >> This is not resisting. >> Resisting. >> Most people can't wait to get off work for a day, but these cops are about to meet a woman who's insistent on staying put even after she's been fired. On the 20th of February, 2023, two officers received a call regarding a heavily intoxicated employee at a car dealership. She had arrived at work that day on time, totally sober. But as the day wore on, employees and customers noticed she was getting more and more drunk. After confirmation, the company fired her. Unfortunately though, things weren't going to be that easy and she was refusing to leave. >> She was on the phone and one of my other employees downstairs heard the person that she was on the phone need stop drinking while on the job. So, we just terminated her like about 10 minutes before and she's refusing to leave. >> Hi, ma'am. How are you? >> Hi. >> You doing okay? >> Yeah. Um, hi. What's your name? >> I am officer from police. >> Hi. Um, how may I help you? >> No. How may I help you? What's going on? >> Uh, nothing. I'm just trying to figure this out. >> Do you have any idea why I'm here? >> No clue. Just >> Would you like to know what I'm here for? >> That's your problem. >> Well, I I know what I'm here for. That might be your problem, actually. >> That might be a business of yours. >> I'm also in law school if you want to take down my um lawyer's information. >> Well, I don't want to talk to you yet. You was just ignoring me. Okay. >> So, she was administrator. >> That's me with my >> Yeah, that's her desk. >> It's immediately obvious how drunk this girl really is, and she's also instantly appearing avoidant and combative. The owner had already asked her to leave multiple times at this point, but every time she just ignored the commands and continue to work, and as the cops continue to question her, she only becomes more delusional. >> You obviously are professional. >> I mean, so it's my understanding they're terminating your employment here at the Chevrolet. Well, what's confirmed is that I need to have someone pick me up. >> Did you guys officially ask her to leave the property? >> Yes, we did. Her mom was on the phone after I >> Yeah, my mom said that she was on the way. >> Her mom said she's not coming to pick her up. >> No, let me call my mom on speaker. >> You need to leave the dealership now. >> By refusing to leave, she's only making things worse for herself. Her employer has every right to call the police as she's now trespassing on the property. If she doesn't leave, she could start to rack up a serious number of charges, but she seems to believe she knows better than the law. >> Okay. So, I I asked my mom to come on the way. >> Your mother told me she's not picking you up. >> So, what's my mom's name? >> I don't know. She was her phone. >> We're We're telling you you need to leave. You're going to be trespassing. >> So, I can't I can't call my mom and ask her to >> You don't They don't want you to use your their phones. Okay. >> So, I can't ask my mom to come pick me up. >> You can use your phone, not mine. >> You have a phone? Mommy, this is my mom. >> The girl then calls her mother and talks to her in Spanish, explaining the whole situation. But before she has a chance to hang up, the cops decide they're done with her games and decide to move in to arrest her. However, as you might expect, this Karen was about to do everything she could to make things as difficult as possible for them. >> Okay, I've had enough. We're going. We're going outside. We're going outside. Let's go outside. We've asked you to leave. Let's go. Grab your purse. >> We're going outside. Time to go outside. I will I will pick myself up, but don't touch me. >> Okay, let's go outside. >> Let me grab my purse. Let me grab my purse, but do not touch me. Okay, my lip gloss. Like, like, bro, what the [ __ ] is wrong with you? >> We've asked you to leave. It's time to go. >> That's okay. All right. Check out my All right. Put your hands on my We're not doing this. We're not doing this, >> bro. Stop. Stop. Put your hands on your back. >> No. This isn't resisting. >> This is resisting. >> This is not resisting. >> Resisting. I'm not resisting. I'm literally innocent. I'm innocent. >> This could have been super simple and you could have just left. >> Hey. Hey. What are you doing? What are you doing? >> My stuff. >> My purse. That's my purse. That's my phone. >> I don't know what you were drinking my dear. >> Pretty strong. >> You know what you guys? This whole company is going to be sued. Come on. Take me up, [ __ ] Take me up, [ __ ] >> You could have just left like >> I I wanted to leave. [ __ ] this. >> Stop. Stop moving around. >> I don't give a [ __ ] What? I'm in law school. I have a clean record. >> Okay, but like we said, you could have just left. >> I wanted to leave. I tried to leave. They wouldn't let me. >> It didn't seem like that. >> They wouldn't let me. >> Take this [ __ ] off of me before. >> They're not coming off. >> Her threats to sue the company are pretty baseless, especially as she was later charged with disturbing the peace, trespassing, and resisting arrest. But you don't have to be drunk to try and escape from the law. As this next suspect shows us when she finds herself on the run with nowhere to hide. >> You got to back up. >> You got to back up. >> You got to back up. >> You keep running up on me. You slammed a girl. >> On July 12th, 2022, a reckless driver began to cause chaos in the streets of New York, leading several people to call 911. The suspect's vehicle was soon spotted by the NYPD, and an officer decided to pull it over and question the owner before things got any more dangerous. But the officer wasn't prepared for what he would be faced with just minutes later. >> I'm going door dash. >> Door dash. >> Yeah. Yeah. I got my what you call it title and everything for the bike. >> You need a license plate for us now. So you can use it. You can see on the door dash thing and everything. I can use the bikes for Door Dash. I'm picking up a delivery right now. >> You can't have this on the road. >> Yeah. It's a 49cc though. >> Doesn't matter. If you're using it on the road, you have to have it registered in New York State. Do you have any paperwork for it at all? >> Yes, I do. I can show you right now. [Music] >> In New York, reckless drivers can come with a punishment of 30 days in jail. But that's only if it's your first offense. If you've been caught out before, then you could spend even longer behind bars. But it appears reckless driving isn't the only problem here, as the bike the driver is using for her delivery job has no license plates. There are many ways the driver could have dealt with this situation, but in classic Karen fashion, she started to argue with the cops and seemed determined to finish her deliveries. >> I don't understand. I'm doing Uber Eats. I'm doing She has a license. >> You were driving. >> Yeah, but I drive it, too. >> She was driving. >> I'm about to show you my title to the bike, sir. I'm just trying. >> I understand. I understand, man. But I'm doing a job. Clearly, the driver wants to get back to work, but the problem is if she's driving without a license, then she could be facing a further 15 days in jail. She needs to prove that she has a license to drive, but instead she makes a crazy decision that would land her in a lot of trouble. driving away trying to take my place. Come on. I'm doing it. I'm not doing under arrest. You're under arrest. >> I'm not getting arrest. It's frankly hilarious that this entitled woman was trying to claim that she wasn't resisting arrest while simultaneously running with her bike, writhing on the ground and pushing away from the officers. She's already gotten herself into a terrible position, but she could mitigate the damages by just producing her license now. But instead, she chose to play it the hard way. >> Your sister. And it's not long before bystanders try to get involved, making an already tense situation even worse. >> I'mma back up. Don't touch me. >> You scared, too? >> Yeah. You scared, too? You got to back up. >> You You got to back up. >> You keep running up on me. Keep recording me. >> He slammed a girl for no reason. He slammed on the floor. You're not from around here and you're raised in a white neighborhood and you scared of black people. This bystander is making some pretty bold claims, but the suspect was trying to escape. And police in New York are authorized to use physical force when they need to arrest someone, prevent escape, or defend a person or property from harm. Tensions were high regarding cops in New York around the time of this arrest. So, it adds an extra level of stress for the arresting officer. >> Trust me, I'm going to sleep you. I'm not hooked. >> You tagging other female. >> Don't worry about my uncle. You told him I'm doing Uber Eats. Then provide them in or not run. It's not a run for no reason. >> Telling me I need a license. I don't have the license for the bike. I'm not >> resisting. You're not. [Music] >> She has just admitted to not having a license for this vehicle. But suggesting all she could do was run is definitely the wrong move. Although the outcome of this case is unknown, this driver could be facing a hefty fine and even prison time for driving without a license and resisting arrest. Lying to a police officer is never a good thing, but gets even worse when you're supposed to be the responsible one. Just like this elementary school teacher who's about to find out that lying to the cops comes with some serious consequences legal standpoint. I'm going to go ahead and make the arrest. >> So, you're going to arrest her and take her from here? >> Again, there's two ways now. You can look view an arrest as she goes to jail or I could site and release on her own recgnissance provided she's got somebody that's sober to come come and take possession her. In just a couple of weeks, there were multiple incidents of drunk teachers getting out of control in the classroom in Oklahoma. One of those cases was when a teacher named Jennifer showed up to her class in September 2023. Before the first bell even rang, her colleagues knew something was wrong and they could smell the problem a mile off. >> How you doing there? >> I'm good. How are you? >> Oh, it's almost the end of the week. So, what's going on today? They said they had reports where I was drinking at school, which is never happened. >> When was the last time you had anything? >> Uh, last night. >> How much did you drink? >> Just a glass of wine. Nothing major. >> All right. Well, would you be willing to submit to some tests? >> Yeah. >> All right. What I'm going to do first is I'm going to check you for HDM. Okay. This is what we call standardized field sobriety test. >> The standard field sobriety test is the go-to method for police. And although it's not always accurate, it can help police determine if a suspect is under the influence. Normally, we see these tests performed at traffic stops. But this teacher is about to get tested in her own school. >> Okay. All right. Can you see that right there? >> Mhm. >> Okay. I want you to follow this with your eyes and your eyes only. Don't move your head. Do you understand? >> Mhm. >> Okay. Just track on that. >> Try to keep your head as straight as you can. Okay. All right. This is what we call our portable breathalyzer machine. >> Depending on what type of breathalyzer machine the Oklahoma police use, the test can be accurate to within 01%. So lying about how much you've drank before you take one is not a smart move. >> Don't you don't have to take the test, but this again would be your opportunity proving this. >> Sure. >> Okay. You willing to take that test? >> Yes. >> Okay. >> I haven't had anything today. Well, if people had a really good one on the night before, it can carry over into the next day. But if you had one glass of wine last night and you didn't have anything else after that, one glass of wine isn't going to carry over into the next day. >> No, I mean, I went to sleep. >> Okay. What's going to happen is when this thing tells me it's time to blow, I'm going to have you reach over with your mouth and blow into that as hard as you can until I tell you to stop. >> Big deep breath. Blow hard. Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. Keep going. Good. [Music] I don't even know what that >> 0.06. >> What is that? >> You are just under the legal limit. So, if you were to be out driving right now, you would be charged with DWI, driving while intoxicated. >> Even so, Jennifer decides to maintain her innocence. >> Had anything to drink today. >> Okay. >> But I'm under the legal limit, right? >> So, under the legal limit just means that you're under the legal limit. It shows that there's alcohol in your system. So, you are still technically intoxicated. Like, if you were to be out driving right now, you could still be charged for DWI. Not DUI, but DWI. >> Oklahoma has a zero tolerance policy for drunk drivers. And even being slightly under the limit can land you in trouble. Although this isn't a traffic stop, it should be clear enough indication that Jennifer should not be at work, let alone in a classroom full of kids. But Jennifer still says she hasn't had a drink at work. And in typical Karen style, she demands to know who accused her. just makes me mad for somebody to say that I had stuff here. I've never and I know it's a small town. >> Yeah. Like Major Malson was saying that we're not we're not privy to that information. We just get a call and come do you know what I mean? >> The thing we'll have to do there just to speak the school language here for a second with you is just she's not going to come back if she's not willing to give me a letter resignation >> and that's something you'll work out between with her. But from a legal standpoint, I'm going to go ahead and make the arrest. The school is trying to make this as painless as possible by giving Jennifer the opportunity to resign. If she doesn't, she could be fired, which would not only create an embarrassing situation, it could affect her chances of getting another teacher's job elsewhere. >> I have not had any. That's what I'm saying. I haven't had anything today. >> Okay. Well, again, I don't know your drinking habits. If somebody drinks a lot, and if they run with a normal VAC of say about a 06 or 08, that's what feels normal to them. Okay. And from a legal standpoint, you're still intoxicated. When I checked when I checked your eyes for horizontal gaze and nestagmas, you had every clue. You had the lack of equal pursuit. You had the onset of nestagmas prior to 45° and you had nestagmas at max deviation. If I had pulled you over, I'm going to be honest with you, you'd have been arrested for driving under the influence. No, today you're going to be arrested for public intoxication. >> I would just like to know who report like and I did not drink today. Well, I'm going to tell you from a legal standpoint, when people call in and report a crime of any crime, we're not in the business of telling people who made the report. >> I reason behind that. >> I understand that. >> If you think things couldn't get any worse for Jennifer, think again. As it turns out, her own child is a pupil at this very school. >> Terms of your employment here, Jennifer, we we can't move forward with you being a teacher here any longer. >> Okay. I would like to resign. >> Can I hurt? >> No. be arrest like handcuffed out please. >> The police department operates under policies and procedures and I can't treat you any more different than anybody else or we're setting ourselves up for liability. >> My child is in the third grade hole. >> Where where's the classroom window at? >> It doesn't face out to this parking lot right here. >> No. Okay. We'll be okay. Your ID be in here? >> Yeah, I can get >> I'll get it for you. Once you're in custody, we have to search all belongings. Okay. But even in the face of her arrest, her fellow teachers allow her some dignity and promise to handle the situation as delicately as possible. A noble decision, especially when you consider that she could have been endangering the lives of dozens of children. >> All right, go ahead and put your hands in front of you with your thumbs facing up, please. >> Is this going to go like on the news? >> Chances are it will, Jennifer. I don't have control over what they put on the news, but there's a good chance that news reporters will probably show up. I will be as discreet as I can in in terms of how I handle. >> Could we please? I've never been in trouble in my life. >> And hopefully this will be the last time, too. But despite the teachers swearing they'd handle things as discreetly as possible, the case did make the news, which is at least another step to making sure our kids are never put in the care of dangerous people like This.
