She was charged with resisting without violence. [music] The very next week, she'd get arrested again for failing to register a motor vehicle. She had pleaded no contest to that charge and served 7 days in jail. Traffic cameras captured her vehicle with a Florida license plate 2 months later, but the registration was still expired. Thanks [music] for watching. See you on the next ride along.
