I'M NOT [screaming] AHEAD. >> I have to breastfeed. My breasts hurt. I'm on my period. I have a tampon in me. >> I apologize. >> My tampon. >> Some kids disappear in silence and the mom disappears from responsibility. >> Are you serious? >> You do. You do. >> Hey, wait. Hold on. I'm volunteering. What's up? >> Turn around. Watch. Turn around. >> Turn around. Turn your hand. >> Put your hand. I have homework. my little girl. >> The second the body cam lights up, every excuse falls apart. And all that's left is a cold, breath stealing truth. If you can handle looking this straight in the eye, stay with us, speak up, and support the channel so the truth doesn't get buried. On May 3rd, 2025, police responded to a 911 call about a 2-year-old who'd been wandering alone for hours near the woods and local trails, wide open to traffic, strangers, and pure [music] bad luck. When officers got there, the truth started peeling back, and what happened next left a lot of people stunned. >> What is the address of your emergency? >> Um, I think she's okay. I just need police right now. I just found it out of the middle of nowhere in front of my yard. Almost got hit by a car. I don't know whose kid this is. >> Is it an adult? >> Yeah, maybe that. She just came out of the woods and I don't see anybody looking for her. There was a car with a bunch of Mexican men trying to take her and I said, "No, you're not." With my daughter now. I'm just shaking because >> father, I'm shaking right now. Um me and my daughter out in the yard playing. I look up right there >> where that fallen tree is. >> Yeah. Came out of here. I don't I know everybody around here. This is not anybody's kid. >> Came out of them woods. I'm shaking right now. >> What kind of truck was it that drove up here? >> It was a white car. I'm not sure. It looked like an old Toyota, like a 90s, >> like a like an old Corolla or something >> kind of. And it was full of looked like migrant men. >> Okay. >> And they weren't acting suspicious or anything, but they were like, "Hey, hey, is this your kid?" I was like, "No." And then they were trying to take her over there. And I was like, "No, the hell you won't." Uh, >> hi. >> I was over my friends was with him. disappeared. >> Okay, give me one second. >> Woods right here. >> Temporary weather disturbance. >> What did you do? >> Yeah, >> thinking Delta Charlie. >> Good. >> Um, do you have an idea real quick? >> I do. Actually, happened and not 3 months ago and Yeah. And now it's going to happen all over again. You go see. [sighs] I'm so sorry. I couldn't imagine. >> You're all right. I I understand the child child. I was freaking out cuz I literally just got home cuz I know you can hear this thing going driving. >> I just told dispatch I was like whoever pulls up besides an officer, they're not and they made me secure my firearm in the house. >> Yeah. >> She wasn't going anywhere. Still not until she let you. No offense. >> Oh, I know. [laughter] >> Believe me >> that I So, we're playing. I look up. I see a little child. I'm waiting for somebody to walk in the car. The scariest part wasn't just the cars or the possibility of a stranger. It was the fact that no adult stepped up to take responsibility. Nobody was throwing punches, but neglect is what made this truly dangerous. And when the mother admitted this had happened before, sorry, but at that point, you can't chalk it up to a mistake or an oversight anymore. [sighs] >> Where Cody go e Do you know his date of birth? >> 11385. >> What's his came by? >> Yeah, because he just literally called me and told me she he could. So, >> did he say how long ago? >> Friend's house. No, he didn't. He was was just right there. It wasn't even 5 minutes. He said, >> "How are you? Hi. How I I I know this might feel a little redundant. And I know you spoke to other deputies already, but I'm the deputy who's here to investigate whatever happened today. Okay. >> Okay. >> So, can you tell me uh what happened to your knowledge? >> All right. To my knowledge, literally I can probably tell you the phone call. I received a phone call. I just got done like shopping and picking my friend Amanda up. I was dropping her off at home, >> just hanging out a minute, you know, chitchatting, whatever. Girlfriend, too. And he called me on the phone and said he couldn't >> Who's he? >> Okay. and which she's only like two blocks down. So I immediately came and double checked the house and then I soon as I got in the car to leave and drive around the neighborhood, I seen the deputy here and I came here. >> So who called you again? Sorry. Can you clarify who who called you? >> You and say again he couldn't find >> and why didn't he call the police? >> That he was hoping that hides. She likes to hide. She hides my She does it to me all the time. >> Do you He doesn't run away on >> Do you guys live together? >> No. >> You guys have a custody agreement or anything in place or you got to work it out together? >> No, it's it's just he Yeah, basically I take care of all the time and I you know because he's done this before. >> What What do you mean he's done this before? >> All right. So I just got out of a open DCF case because the last time I in his care ran away. I'm trying to think who the deputy was. There was um there was a well every a bunch of them. So, but um >> so this is so >> it was like in December or January. >> She's watching >> of this year of like this year December/ January. >> Yes. I I can't remember the exact >> was law enforcement involved in that case. >> Yes. Yes. Because a lady wouldn't get back to dad and had already called law enforcement. So y'all were already on the way so on so forth and not and the same issue I was >> Did he get in trouble with law enforcement during that incident or no? >> The officers didn't argue feelings. They locked onto the timeline. The child was reportedly handed to the father around 5:30 to 5:50. And it wasn't until 7:21 that they said the child was missing. That gap is what flips the emotion from shock to justified clear-headed anger. Not because there was no love, because they knew the risk and still gambled on someone whose supervision settings were basically on low. >> They are seven and nine. >> Seven and nine. Do we know where they are right now? >> Um, they should be home >> with dad. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> But um, >> so there's two other kids that are there right now. >> Yeah. Well, they go to their friend's house and that's why I was asking where the boys were. They were supposed to be at their friend's house, but they know they're supposed to be home by 7:00. >> Okay. All right. And I'm just going to speak with this gentleman real quick. Okay. >> [ __ ] >> I think I met you out here before. Maybe. >> Yeah. Not in a bad way. You ain't going to get no bad stuff for me. Let's go. >> Can you [laughter] tell me exactly what from the beginning what you saw? What happened? >> Yeah. I was sitting over there. My daughter, we come out in the evening to run around. It's a BB gun. >> Hey, Rayan, come here and watch, please. One second. See, this is the problem. Okay. She's her kitchen. Hey, keep up here. Okay. So I was sitting up here and we were just running around and I saw the corner of my eye seen her come out of the woods over here >> like right out of here and I was just waiting for somebody to walk. It was like adjacent to the truck. >> Was walking or crawling? >> Walking. >> Okay. >> Perfectly fine. And then when I got up and walked over here, I looked there was nobody coming. >> And right in front of where this wave SUV, my friend Cliff was right there, there was a uh like an older I want to say like a Toyota, maybe a four-door. And there was probably four or five Hispanic men in there. They weren't they weren't acting aggressive or anything. And they were like, "Hey." I'm like, "No." >> And they were trying to take her over there to there's a gentleman that lives here named Mike where the where the truck is over here. >> Yeah. >> And they're like I was like, "No, no, they got boys. It's not." And they're like, "Well, take her." I was like, "No, you're not. You're not. Nobody." So I got animal. >> So then they came by one more time, >> but I think they were just making sure that I wasn't. And then >> can you walk over there? Can you certainly specifically walk out? >> Right. Well, I directly come out come from this way and I was just looking this way coming down the street and I said, "What are you doing?" Came right here. >> While one dad is casually playing with his child out front, another father vanishes from his own responsibility. A stranger ends up being the last line of defense between that toddler and danger. What really stands out is how responsibility seems to get pushed onto the child. Even though officers determined the father was the one directly supposed to be watching. >> County Sheriff's Office. If you're inside, make yourself known. We aren't going to make entry. >> No. >> Cody, this is the Indian River County Sheriff's Office. If you're inside the house, make yourself known. We are going to make entry. You good, Jess? >> Yeah. Just let her get in the back. >> Again, Cody, this is the Indian River County Sheriff's Office. We are going to make entry. If you're inside, make yourself known. >> She said no weapons. She said he is not known with a firearm. and she said he would not be violent towards us because he knows what's good for him. >> These flags >> they used to go they used this this house used to be all white supremist out of prison. >> So it appears >> everybody still hot? >> Yeah. >> No, >> it appears he took a bike. >> I'm going to take this >> those wood you see on we we go they're all gone. They're all houses being built. He uh looks like he picked up his bike over the tarp. dropped his phone and then the bike went. >> Who am I speaking with? >> Cody. >> Hey. Hey, Cody. This is Cor with the sheriff's office. How you doing today, man? >> Not doing too good, man. >> All right. Well, we were trying to get a hold of it yesterday, but you weren't home. My I was home. My phone my and my phone they say y'all found me in the ditch, but it must have fell out of my pocket or something when you know it scared me. So I I ran down the ditch and then I seen the officer at the corner of this thing and like I didn't you know what I mean? She just she was playing in the front yard and then she ran down the ditch. >> All right. So >> yeah. So Cody, um would you be willing to talk to me in person? >> No, because y'all say y'all was shoot out for my arrest. I'm definitely I'm not going back to jail. I don't want to go to jail. I don't deserve to go to jail. I don't understand. I don't mind talking, you know, but the last time they tricked me. They they took me. This father wasn't moving fast with a parents panic. He was moving fast with self-preservation. The excuses showed up quicker than the effort to find his kid. That's the classic responsibility Dodger profile. When danger hits, the child stops being the center of the decision. He stayed gone for over a week and police located him quickly at a local arcade. Hands up. >> Hands up. >> Let me see your hands. >> Hands are up. >> Let me see your hands. Come back here. >> Turn around. >> Turn around. >> Got them still. >> Do what you got to do, bud. >> We are taking them in the custo. >> Good. They're over there stealing my [ __ ] >> Well, maybe you should just turn yourself in like you said. >> Turn myself in for what? I didn't even know I had a warn out. >> Come on, man. Come on, man. I've been at the house. I've been at the house. >> That's why you were hiding, right? >> I was hiding. Tell me where I was hiding. Tell me where I was hiding. Right here. >> Here. No. No. No. No. No. >> He takes everything with him. >> No. Absolutely not. >> Let me take your >> Oh, hey. Hey. >> That's what they're failing to understand. They're making it They're the ones being bitter about the situation, not me. I just didn't want to go to jail cuz I knew I was going to jail. Sure. >> And I I feel like I don't deserve the charge. You know what I'm saying? Because the last time this happened, it was on my roommate Janie and her husband, you know, and she ran down the road. But she's too worried about something else. You know what I'm saying? Like I'm not worried about that. I like my boss. I know what to do. I mean, I got to get cleaned up and and show these people that I can do it. >> Yeah. >> You know what I mean? But the bottom line is our last [clears throat] fight with me and my old lady was and then I I just called it quits. I've been called it quits for a while, but I just wanted to be civil for the children. So, she slept on one bed and I slept on the other. >> Yeah. >> She said she was leaving to go get chicken feet and ain't been back. And then she dropped pulls in on my daughter's birthday the other day and drops her off. Didn't say she was leaving. Didn't say nothing. I just happened to be in the sideyard with her playing. They make me out to be the bad guy. That's all right. I made my bed all lying and I have no problem doing it. In the end, the father was arrested and taken to jail facing a child neglect charge because he was the one directly responsible when the toddler disappeared. So, the immediate criminal liability falls on him. That said, the mother's statements about prior DCF involvement and similar past situations could still trigger administrative review, and her custody rights may be re-evaluated even if she wasn't handcuffed on the spot. If convicted, he could face up to 5 years in prison, 5 years of probation, and fines up to $5,000. You'd think the nightmare is over. But now comes the worst part. Neglect with an address, doors that lock, and a smell don't forget. On January 8th, 2024, police responded to a 911 call about a 3-year-old in an apartment showing signs of a medical emergency. When officers arrived, they found an urgent situation. The caller had disappeared and a chain of critical decisions had to be made on the spot right then and there. >> [ __ ] police. Fairmore Police Department. >> 305. >> See? Good. back older male answer phone. >> He has no idea who Ariela is and no one used his phone. >> Oh god. >> Jesus Christ. >> Oh, she's still breathing. She's still breathing. Let's go. Let's go. >> Get a light. We haven't even got that far. >> Uh, let's get pictures started. I called Johnny. >> Secure this. Stay here. >> Where is the uh >> the child was in the >> We don't know. We walked in and there was a kid in there. >> Jesus. Airbor Police. 295. Can you see what history we have at this address, please? Jesus Christ. Sorry, let me get out of your way. [music] All right, we did secondaries. >> Yeah, it's bad. >> The filth wasn't just on the floor. It was in the cracked psychological structure of that home. It reflected a mind and a household coming apart at the seams. When adults lose the ability to organize themselves, the child is usually the first one to pay the price. And the most heartbreaking part, a mother's protective instinct was missing at the exact moment it mattered most. with black >> lady upstairs came out and said it was a mouse on the >> Luna and uh >> Luna and Cory is who she's known to live here, but she said she never seen it. >> You straight ripped that door off. >> Uh I was just trying to >> Yeah. No, I >> I don't know. I >> like holy to disturbing, man. I don't blame you. Was malnourished and that she was sorry and she had to go. Where would she go? >> I have no idea. And her mom lives in Yellow Springs um in the uh apartments over there by the horse track. Is my daughter okay? She's in route to Children's Hospital right now. the last time you saw your daughter? >> It's been a while. She uh had it kept telling me that she didn't want me around her because she had had issues with me when she was a child and that uh because of that she was uncomfortable with us being in the same room. Gave me reasons to why she was asleep every time we came over and I see her at least two weeks. >> And when you saw her >> and when you saw her two or three weeks ago, her she was in good health or Okay. >> And and so does she have problems or what's going on? >> Um she smokes, but I don't think that's the cause of it. Uh about I want to say 6 months ago we split up because her father died and she went completely off rails after that. She stopped cleaning. She stopped taking care of everything like many arguments. Um, she had asked me to quit my job two years prior and uh, I listened because she was making like $1,000 a week and uh, so I had told her, you know, because I knew she was struggling, give me clothes. I will go get a job. I will take care of everything. And she said, no, I want you to stay here. And it kept turning into fights until I caught her cheating with or on me with some people online. And uh, she's been in this in this spiral. She hasn't cleaned up the room. I think the only reason she cleaned that room is because I told her that it I I would seriously hurt her if I found my daughter in any kind of condition because we lost our first daughter because she had issues and uh I was the reason we were allowed to keep this one. >> Saw her the mom. And tell me her first name again. >> Rob yesterday. >> You saw her yesterday. Where did you see her at? >> Here. >> Here. >> Okay. Um did you ever you never went inside? >> It's fine. No, I went inside, but uh we went straight to the bedroom. I talked to her for about 5 minutes, handed her the cigarette at like 11, 12:00, and back took off. >> The mother's absence wasn't just being gone. It was a retreat from moral responsibility. The father, even aware of the danger, built a story that basically said, "That's not on me." When personal comfort and ego come before a child's safety, protection gets replaced with self-defense. I'm not surprised because she has a habit of this. This is how I met her. She was running from foster care when she was 17. I had just turned 18 and was trying to get her out of trouble and keep getting herself hurt and then she ended up getting herself arrested and I talked to her again when she turned 18. >> So, when you were alerted today, where were you? >> I was at my uncle. >> All right. But she had told me to get the key and come get the laptop and the PlayStation, my old baby pictures, all my birthday social that should still be here in a folder somewhere. >> Yeah. >> Round everything up. >> Well, unfortunately, we can't really do any of that just yet, but uh at some point uh maybe maybe not today, but maybe down the road we should be able to hopefully help get your stuff, but I I can't make any guarantees on that right now. >> You are. Is it uh you doing speaker? Hello. Hey, this is Officer Zen. Who am I speaking with? This is >> Robia. >> Hey, are you are you local nearby that you can come back and talk to about the circumstances at your apartment? >> Well, what we care about most is the the the care and the health of your daughter or sorry. >> Yeah, me too. >> Okay. It's going to be easier if you would come back here and we could try to sort this out, right? >> Want to go to jail? >> Well, we're we're not thinking about that right now. We're trying to figure out, you know, what we could do to Yeah, we're trying to figure out what happened. Absolutely. Are you out here? >> Um, probably like 30 minutes. Do you mind if I stay on the phone with you while I wait and explain some things, I guess? >> Uh, yeah. That's >> a question. Can I ask like do you know anything? Like what's going on with her? Why I couldn't get her to breathe? >> I don't know. She's been transported to the children's hospital and outside of that I have no idea. >> Her absence stops being a side detail and becomes the main issue. She walked away from responsibility. She asks about the child's condition, but quickly pivots back to her own fear and consequences. When life depends on you, leaving the scene isn't helplessness. It's a choice. I need her this morning. How come? She like she wasn't like she wasn't moving. Like she was breathing but she wasn't like moving. She was just like laying there. And I was like this is a lot worse than I THOUGHT IT WAS CUZ I had been feeding her but like it just kept seeming like something was LIKE SUCKING THE LIFE out of her. I DON'T I DON'T I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. >> YEAH. Have you have you had any recent pediatric appointments or anything like that? >> No. Oh, I've been too depressed to GO AND BOOK EDDIE. I HAVEN'T BEEN TO A DOCTOR IN LIKE 4 YEARS. >> YEAH, >> I think the children services needs to get involved and take her because I don't think I have the mental capacity to take care of her. >> We can we can work through those things, right? We can we can reach out and contact resources and and see what we can figure out. But >> I was going to call them first, BUT I JUST I DIDN'T KNOW WHO TO CALL. I couldn't get her to function right and talk to me or anything. Yeah, >> I will be back at the apartment in less than probably about what it took me to get here. >> Well, I'm here and uh I'll I'll uh I'll wait here for you and that way we can chat and try to sort through things and answer any questions that you have. Okay. >> All right. >> All right. I'm going to give you back to uh the gentleman here. >> All right. I'll see you when you get here. >> This uh baby daddy out here outside of he's fine statement. He's talking like he wants to wait around and get property, but do we need to talk to him anything further as far as uh or once he's done? >> Now, I guess just confirming the relationship, the baby he know anything about >> He was here last night, brought her cigarettes. He didn't he did not see his child. Uh they've got been on again off again. >> So she was here last night. >> Yeah. So uh >> that is full of >> Yeah. >> And then her and then >> the last time he's >> uh to Yeah. See seemingly healthy. >> The father's repeated focus on property shows how badly priorities were twisted. Both adults stayed locked on their personal situation while the child became a medical emergency in real time. The mother carries primary responsibility, but the father, who knew the risk and the history of the child going missing, carries responsibility, too. >> Right now, we're trying to figure out a whole bunch of things, right? A whole bunch of details. >> Even if it's my back is killed. >> Um, >> what you what do you want? >> Just sit down. >> You have a seat. >> Yeah, we're going to have you can have a seat in the back of my car. Um, >> are you guys taking me? >> What's that? >> Are you guys taking me? >> Uh, yeah, we are. Okay. >> Okay. So, >> my stuff. >> I I'll take care of that. Let's uh let's walk in the front of my car. All right. Okay. Just right here is good. Um if you want to face my car, you don't have Just put your hands out to your sides. >> Nothing nothing on your uh in your pockets at all. No pockets. You have >> um just underwear underneath your sweats. >> Not underwear. >> Just your sweats. Okay. Perfect. >> All right. Go ahead and put your palms together behind your back. >> 322. Tell me how tell me how to say your name. >> Rabia. Okay. Robia. My name is Ryan Detective. Uh and I am the detective that's going to be handling this case. Um it's going to be a little bit. So right now um you're going to be taken to the Fairborn Police Department. Uh there's some some administrative things that we have to do there. Uh take a a picture and some some fingerprints, but I'm going to be down to talk to you uh soon. Okay. >> Okay. Let's go around to the passenger side here. Have a seat. What's this fell's name back here? >> Travis, can you please tell him that that stuff right there needs to go to my kid's dad? >> Okay. >> The one that was over here earlier. >> Just Just hang out right there, man. I'll be right with you. >> Yeah. Yep. >> Is there any way you could cuff me in the front? I have spinal problems and this really hurts. >> Yeah. Yeah, I can do that. Just uh Can you turn Can you turn Yeah, I ain't going to say. There we go. All right. Just uh All right. >> Um right now you're being arrested for um at a felony level. Okay. >> A felony level. >> Yes. We um are still we we're doing our thing that we have to do. Okay. Uh, as Detective Whitaker mentioned, he will be in speak with you. Uh, right now, we're going to go to our jail in Fairborn and, uh, process on those charges and then go from there. And as we go through these this process, I'll try to answer any questions I can best of my ability. Okay. All right. >> The little girl was taken to the hospital where she stayed for several weeks before being discharged. She now lives with the adoptive family of her sister. In the end, the mother was taken to jail and faced serious charges, felony child endangerment and assault, and was sentenced to 7 to 10.5 years. On January 29th, 2025, the father, 29, was sentenced to 4 years in prison for his role in a severe child abuse case. If that filthy apartment is the crime of absence, then jail is the crime of ego, and a breast pump [music] became the spark that lit the whole thing. On April 21st, 2025 in Illinois, police made a traffic stop after a vehicle was suspected of turning into a driveway without properly using a turn signal. Inside the car was a mother, and what happened next quickly blew past anything the officers likely expected at first. >> I have to get my >> Get back in the car. You too. >> Shut your ass. >> Get back in the car. >> You are. >> Get back in the car. I'm not telling you. >> Right here. What's up? What's up? >> Get back IN THE CAR. >> CAMERA'S RIGHT HERE. YOU AIN'T YOU ARE NOT EVEN pulling us over. Yes, I am. GET BACK IN THE CAR. I don't care. You're both here. >> Go ahead. Go ahead. >> Back in the car. >> Back in the car. I'm not saying it again. >> Right here. >> I'm not saying it again. Get back in the car. This is a traffic stop. >> You weren't even Give me ANOTHER ONE. TURN AROUND. TURN AROUND. >> DON'T TOUCH ME. >> YOU'RE NOT DOING THIS. GET BACK IN THE CAR THEN. >> YOU'RE FINE. >> GET BACK. DON'T TOUCH ME, BRO. I didn't do You're fine. >> GET BACK IN THE CAR. >> Turn around. I'm not doing this right now. Come on. Back up. Cops, too. She's going to cops, too. She grabbed me by the face. >> Stand up. >> Get the [ __ ] stand up. >> Stand up. >> Nobody got nothing, dude. >> Hey, people. Call my brother. >> I did not do nothing. Find my brother now. I didn't do it. >> The keys for the car. You have the keys. >> This way. >> My mom. I was going to breast pump. He stayed on my mom. >> Is there anything on you? >> No, sir. >> Flip around. >> I was at an Easter party. I just paid on my birthday. >> Relax. >> But I didn't do anything. >> But if you relax, then we'll figure it out. Relax. >> Oh, I'm relaxer. Slide in. We'll figure it out in a second. What's your name? >> My name's Lex. >> Sign in for a second. >> Give me a second. >> 215. >> I didn't do anything. >> This stopped being a story about a breast pump real fast. It turned into a tugofwar over control. The tighter the officers stepped in, the more fear flared into resistance. And from that moment on, the mom image started to fade, replaced by someone scrambling to dodge consequences. >> Get up. >> Get your ass. >> Shut up. >> There you go. >> Oh, we can't borrow your car. >> Think you're tougher. >> But I got you. Don't fight it. Don't fight it. Don't fight it. >> Pick your feet apart. >> Pick your feet apart. >> Whatever. >> Don't fight it. You didn't do anything. Baby, you didn't do anything. >> Scary there, [ __ ] I'll be out soon. Stay back, mother. Shut up. Stay back, [ __ ] ass [ __ ] [screaming] >> I'LL be out soon, you >> and that's on your mother, [ __ ] >> Yeah. Oh, you keep act like this. You ain't going nowhere. All right. Want to bet? I got good lawyers, [ __ ] >> Yo, what? >> And bond money, mother. You guys all each other. >> Democrats.

I'm saying that's the only reason why I feel like you guys was I'm all American, man. >> No, I'm out, dude. I got to drinking on 420 beer now, man. >> Union.

I ain't got nothing but respect for you guys, bro. >> I'm American union worker, man. Come on, man. I don't want you guys for the police, bro. Okay. We're walking. >> Hey, [screaming] I HAVE TO FEED MY BABY. >> She's trying to protect me, man. That's all, man. That's just how she is. She just how she gets, bro. >> That's all she get. She wants her babies, bro. She I have a six-mon old and a 2-year-old. >> Why you acting like this, man? >> Because I'm pissed off. He not even let me talk, bro. >> I ain't even watching, bro. That's why, man. I just got out the joint 2020, bro. >> My baby is hungry. My baby don't drink formula. He drinks breast milk. >> I'm just I'm just mad cuz he wouldn't even let me. >> Hey, hey, hey, hey. Do you need EMS? Do you need milk? You don't? >> No, I'm fine, bro. >> Okay. I I just don't want something be poor or something like that. >> I'm fine. I'm just talking to him, bro. >> You're good. >> Hey, I'm just talking to him, bro. >> Hang out for now, bro. >> We're good, bro. I'm sorry, bro. I'm just >> I got I got a couple beers in me, bro. You know how it is, man. >> You know what I'm saying? I just didn't like how you was talking to me, and I just don't like how people disrespect me, bro. >> Dude, I was trying to dispract. But you got to follow what I say. Okay. I I know how it is, bro. I just need No, no problem. >> He's got a record, talks tough like he's street, but still demands respect like he's owed it. The saddest part is the baby stuck in the middle of a chaotic mess. The mother plays the newborn card, but every move she makes pulls her further from actually protecting that child. Some moms can't drink because it can affect breastfeeding. And that night, she was the one behind the wheel. >> My baby is >> You need EMS? >> No, my baby is only 3 months old. Where's your baby? Can I breastfeed my baby? Where's your baby at? My baby's at my mother's My baby's at my mother. >> Your baby's not here right now. Okay. Your mother's taking care of the baby because >> Okay, hang out for now. Just hang out, >> sir. My baby shortly. We'll talk to her. That's fine. We'll talk to her. >> She's only My girlfriend's just trying to defend me, man. That's all she is, bro. >> Have a seat with him so I don't drink formula. He >> just get back in for now. I heard you. I understand. I do not give you permission to search my truck. There's nothing in there. We weren't drinking in there or nothing. >> Sir, there's nothing in my truck. >> How old is your How old How OLD IS YOUR KID? 3 MONTHS. >> THREE MONTHS. BREAK THAT WINDOW AND YOU'RE A FELON. STOP BEATING ON MY WINDOW. >> I'M ALREADY a felon. >> Break this and DCFS WILL GET INVOLVED. STOP HITTING YOUR HEAD OFF MY WINDOW. >> There for me. >> Scoot in and stop beating your head off my window. >> My baby is breastfed. That's the only reason I'm I'm tripping because my baby is breastfed and I'm only 3 months. >> You have been told multiple times to sit here and relax to protect you from getting another one. Stop hitting the window. >> My baby is only 3 months old. He's hungry. I came here to get his breast pump to feed. >> That's the only reason I came here. >> And then you get involved with this. >> Yes, we came here to come home. You guys You guys pulled me over because I I'm assuming I was speeding. I was by [clears throat] the office. I was going to stop at the office. I didn't stop at the office. I came here to my home. >> I have a breast pump at the office, but I came here to my home to get my Medela breast pump. >> If you stop go to stop me somewhere and I go home, what happens? You're going to stop me there, too? >> Yeah, >> I understand. >> So, how does it look to me? >> It looks >> And I wasn't the one that stopped. And then And then he's fighting my guy out here. >> Exactly. And I tell him to stop. But he's only used to that because he was in prison for 2 years. >> I will tell your mom. >> We're not fighting. >> I will tell your mom what is going on with you. >> The breast pump turns into a symbol of her mom pride. She wants the police to validate her as a good mother so it can blur out the fact that she's resisting. Instead of cooperating and getting it over with, she stalls, argues, and drags it out. But once Miranda writes get read, it's not about feelings anymore. It's legal territory. >> Can you please let her know I'm fine? >> Yes. Yes. She She already knows. She She doesn't want to talk. Okay. >> I hope she's fine. >> I'm going to read this to you real quick. I I did ask if she needs medical attention. She said no. >> I understand all of them. >> You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can will be used against in the court of law. But I didn't do anything. >> Did you guys run just over a little bit of weed? What you say, man? >> Yeah. What' she say? She's trying to get away for >> She's just stupid, bro. I [laughter] ain't going to lie to you, man. That's That's She's dumb. She doesn't listen, bro. >> I'll probably transport you guys together just because it'd be easier. So, just hang out while I explain this to her. Okay. >> Man, I appreciate it, man. >> Hello. Hi, what's going on? >> Hello. Uh, she's going to she's going to go to jail just for uh battery on me. So, uh, nothing major. She'll be released tonight most likely, especially having the baby and stuff. I'm not looking to keep her overnight or anything like that. So, she should be released tonight. >> But, do you know why you attacked you went and jumped on her? >> I didn't jump on her at all. >> Yeah, she she me and Tony were in an altercation and she jumped in and >> Oh, >> I did not touch him. He's such a liar. Okay. Well, most likely you're going to be released tonight as long as you don't damage any squatter because my baby's probably starving. >> Okay. Again, it's on you. So, as long as you don't cause any problems, you should be released. >> You're a liar. That's first of all. >> Why am I a liar? >> Because you said that I touched your face and I didn't. >> Let's go. Let's go. I'm not We're not arguing here on the side of the road. You're you're going. And that's >> the side of the road. This is my block. >> This is where I live. The hell you >> Has she been Has she been searched? >> Yeah. I don't know nothing. I'm the lip gloss pie. >> You are within this clo You're this close to not being released tonight by my decision. Do you understand me? >> Okay. And who are you? >> I can tell the jail that you're being uncooperative. You can sit in there until you calm down. >> If that's what you want to do, >> but you're not but you're not calm. >> He's only 3 months old. >> You've told me that a 100 times. We're trying to get you to your kids. >> If you had a breastfed baby, you'd understand. >> I've got plenty of kids. >> Do you have a breastfed? >> I have a wife that doesn't act like this. I can tell you that. I have a wife who doesn't act like this. That's what I have up >> is wife. >> Step up. >> I'm Mexican. >> I don't give a [ __ ] what race is. I really don't. >> Too bad. >> The fact that she won't lower her voice shows the focus has shifted off the baby and onto the need to win. When she starts leaning on identity and race to boost herself up, that's a classic sign of an ego under threat. When the facts look bad, status becomes armor. Even with her mother stepping in to calm things down, the bad choices keep steering the whole situation. >> I can't have gum or nothing. >> I know there's nothing but >> Where's Tony? >> He didn't do nothing. He didn't touch this officer's head or head or >> I highly suggest that this is how she acts when she drinks. She doesn't drink. >> She doesn't really drink. This is >> Well, this is what happens. And this is Yeah, >> I don't drink. FYI. >> And this is Oh, this is the problem with drinking. >> Yeah, I know. >> No, it's not. Lex, see this? >> No, it's not. I have a felon from one of your guys officers. >> I don't drink. >> Yeah, she goes. >> I just had a baby 3 months ago. >> Are you just high or what? >> Hell no. I don't smoke. Put this on your hands >> cuz she had a baby. >> I want I tell you tonight she has. >> Oh, yeah. Today she has. But she hasn't. >> It is what it is. Up here. And I'm going to put this belt on you. So just lean back. >> Put this between your >> There you go. Okay. Please. This is not that. >> You couldn't just stay. Huh? You got to worry about work. Well, my dad already said there was no work. >> I just told Shut the up. Shut up. >> You act like you TALKING TO MY DAD. I'M THE boss's daughter. >> Hey, >> I'm the one. >> I already asked him. >> You said you did not have to go. >> Just stop, man. You didn't know we're mad for no reason. >> There's no point in being mad. >> God damn. >> Yeah, relax. >> No, you relax. >> You relax >> cuz we didn't have to leave at all. Yeah, people are tired regardless. >> You weren't tired, >> Tony. Just Just let it go. >> Yeah. No, I'm just >> There's no point even arguing. >> Yeah, you weren't tired. >> In the end, both of them are arrested and taken to jail. The man faces charges, including resisting, obstructing, aggravated battery on a police officer, and improper marijuana possession in the vehicle. The woman is charged with resisting arrest and assaulting an officer. Their court date is reportedly set for January 15th, 2026. And honestly, it raises the big question. Is this the kind of home where a child can truly thrive? And what kind of parenting patterns is this couple going to pass down? From special treatment fantasy to swinging fists, the system closes in and an arrogant ego finally starts learning what the law costs. On October 11th, 2025 in Illinois, police responded to an emergency call reporting a woman having a full-blown meltdown inside a home. Furniture disturbed, emotions running hot, and the situation spiraling fast. Officers arrived to secure the scene. But what they found behind the door was far more troubling than expected. >> What's going on? >> Stepped out. He just went buck wild. >> Okay. Is anybody hurt? >> No. Well, she was we we stopped her from trying to beat her kid. >> Okay. >> She went crazy. We stopped her from trying to destroy the house or what is it? >> I don't know. I was holding her down. >> Did she throw anything or >> She [ __ ] take >> She just need She needs a break. >> She still need a break. She got issues, man. I've been trying to help her. >> Where's she at? Is there anyone? >> She's upstairs. >> Alexis, calm down. >> She just stole my kids room. Went in there, broke cabinets. >> Okay. >> Throwing [ __ ] >> I can't help. And her name's Alexis. >> Yes. >> Yeah. >> Okay. Who else is in the house? >> My kids and my two daughters. >> They're hiding in the room. >> Hey, where are you going? Where you going? No. No. No. Hey. No. No. No. Come on. >> Don't do it. >> Don't do it. Don't do it. >> She's trying to leave. Hey. No. >> No. >> Hey, she's on the car. >> He's going to break YOUR WINDOW. GET OUT. >> Get out. >> Hey, I'm going to give you the simple simple option. I want to talk to you. Don't leave. Don't leave because I'm not >> Don't leave. >> He doesn't want your car to get crashed. >> Leave it. I'm not. Don't leave. Make the good decision. And I don't need you to do this. >> The [ __ ] window. >> Alexis, stop. >> 173. What's your 20? >> Just wait. >> Alexis. Alexis, it's okay. I know you're upset right now. I need you to turn the car off. >> From the jump, this was a textbook domestic violence ecosystem with a child sitting right at the center of the risk. One moment the mother is framed as a threat. The next she's redefined as someone to feel sorry for. But choosing to walk away and lock herself in the car points to avoidance, not conflict resolution. >> Then can you step out of the car? >> I want you to breathe. I want you to step out of the car for me. We can talk about this and get it get it sorted out nice and easy. Okay. >> Alexis. Alexis. It's okay. I understand you're scared. I I understand that you're worked up and you've got a lot going on right now, but this is not the best thing to do. Okay, >> bro. Just arrest me. You're going to [ __ ] arrest me. Try to [ __ ] window. >> I don't want to break the window. >> What the [ __ ] is that? >> Can you open the door? >> Do you have a spare set of keys? >> Hey, I want you to open the door and we'll talk. I'm not opening up the window. >> I'm going to jail. >> I'm not used to it because you got to break out of my teeth. >> I don't want to break the window. >> Windows me. >> She's not going to be able to afford to buy another window. She doesn't. She's not working. She's just She's having a nervous breakdown right now. That's what's happening. >> And that's But I don't need her to go driving. >> I know. I know. Alexis, open the window, please. >> Alexis, can you just crack this for a second just so I can hear you, please? Cuz look, hey, look, Alexis, we're not going to go away. Okay, let's take a couple deep breaths. We'll handle this and step on out, okay? We don't want to forcibly remove you. We don't do any of that. Officers were sharp to deploy spike strips to prevent a possible escape. While adults bargain with emotions, children hide in bedrooms. Memories like that tend to stamp the idea that home isn't safe. A mother worn down by caring for a special needs child can break. But breaking doesn't give you a pass to drag that child into danger. You're the one that called, right? >> Yeah. >> Okay. What the hell happened? >> She has an autistic son and he's been very bad lately, you know, and I think she just lost it. >> Okay. >> She's having a nervous breakdown right now. >> Like she So she she's lost it and like what do you mean? Like just >> she destroying stuff? Is she like hitting people? Is she >> Is there somebody else that you want to talk to that would help? >> I'm sorry. What was that? She destroyed my daughter's room cuz we were trying to hold her down. >> Okay. All right. And she like does anybody have injuries? Is anything >> What's that? >> Injuries or anything like that? >> She destroyed the house and dramatized the kids, man. >> Yeah. Okay. >> She went in there. She was whooping the shadow of her kid and >> they got my >> She wanted to got issues. I ain't having [ __ ] no more. I don't want her in my house no more. It sucks. I try to help someone and they me over. She was trying to help him out. >> She wasn't hitting him. She wanted to take him and she >> whatever it was. >> She wanted to take him and we wouldn't let her take him. >> A kid. >> Mhm. >> Did she have Do you have guardianship over the kid or she sheard she just live in here under my roof? >> Okay. So, she wanted to take her kid in for like just >> she wanted to leave with him, but the way that she is, I didn't think it was safe. >> Okay. All right. So she's attacking you. You're just trying obviously just Are you just trying to get her off? I >> I was trying to get her off and you know she was going at me. So I like you know I was defending myself. >> Yeah. Okay. And this is the room with the kids in there. >> Yes. >> Okay. Yeah. She's going to have to calm down. Either way, she does have an active warrant, so she's going to go to jail regardless. Alexis, come on. Alexis >> Schultz said uh so at best case see what she does if we try slim jim in the door. He's coming down. He says at that point if she's not out by the time he's down here that's ample enough time for her to come on out and then we'll break the window. >> A sister stepping in to defend her doesn't erase the real danger facing an autistic child. The mother had slipped out of self-control. Yet she still carried parental responsibility. Once safety lines are crossed, you can feel it. The officer's patience is wearing thin. >> You going to unlock the door, Alexis? [music] [music] Am [music] I under arrest? >> Come on. >> Am I under arrest? >> Yeah. At this point. Yeah. >> What am I under arrest for? >> For domestic battery. >> Come on. >> Let's go. >> For domestic battery. >> Yeah, sure. >> Come on. Let's go. >> Come on, >> dude. Are you serious? >> You do. You do. Hey, wait. Hannah, go voluntarily. What's the >> turn around? What? Turn around. Turn around. Turn your hand. >> Put your hand. >> Dude, I have homework I need to do. >> So, what am I under arrest for? >> You have a You have a You have a warrant for domestic. >> How do I have a warrant for >> You already knew you had a domestic warrant. >> No, I don't have a domestic warrant. >> We could hear it on the 911 call. You're complaining about it. >> How do I have a domestic warrant? >> Shoes and a shirt, please. >> Widen your stance. Okay, if you're going to make this difficult, then we'll just do it in the car. >> Go ahead and do it in the car. I don't care. I don't even have a domestic for aing warrant. Dude, what the are you guys evening talking about right now? >> Are you taking her in, too? Cuz she hit me. You're not going to take her in? >> I'm dealing with She hit me. >> I'm dealing with you first. >> Okay. So, she hit me. >> Okay. >> Then I'll go I'll go talk with her. >> I want to press charges on her. Okay. >> No, I want to press charges cuz she hit me. Okay. I want to press charges, but she actually hit me when I couldn't do [ __ ] I was just trying to grab my kids so I could leave. >> Okay. >> So, when do I get to when when are my rights going to be writ? >> I don't need to read your rights. >> Why? >> Cuz you don't want to talk to us. >> If the child truly came first, she would have calmed things down fast. Instead, she chose to square up with the system, leaning on rights to hold her ground and casting herself as the victim. When responsibility zigzags, credibility drops, and the child gets pulled straight into the storm. >> Alexis, before I ask you any questions and get your side of the story, I have to read your Miranda rights. Okay. So, do you want to speak with me or no? >> I don't want to speak. Just arrest me. Do what you're going to do on >> So, you're already under arrest. Okay. You have a warrant. Okay. >> What do I have a warrant for? >> Domestic battery. My partner already told >> I don't have a warrant for domestic battery. >> Well, it's still valid. >> Can you look it up? >> Yeah, I will. >> I don't have one for domestic battery. >> Okay. Well, here's here's what I know. >> That's a lie. Cuz I know for a fact I don't have anything for domestic battery. >> You want to talk about what happened today? Yes or no? >> Can you tell me what I'm under arrest for? >> Domestic battery? >> No, it's not. Can you please look? Okay. >> Can you please look? Because I don't have a warrant for domestic battery. >> I do not understand what I I'm asking you. Do you want to talk about what happened today? >> I just want to know what I'm under arrest for because I don't have a warrant for domestic battery. >> Confirmed 99 driving suspended >> driving. Do you want to talk about what happened to us or not? >> You just take me and read me my rights. >> I don't have I said she hit me. I was just trying to leave with my kid. >> I was just trying to leave with my kid. You're telling me you want to know what happened? I was just trying to leave. That's all I was trying to do. >> Do you want me Do you want me Alexis? Look at me. Hey, look at me. Look at me. >> [ __ ] I DON'T GET IT. >> LOOK at me. Do you want to talk about what happened today? >> Am I Can I press charges? Can I press charges? cuz I want to press charges. >> Okay. >> I just went in to grab my son, dude. >> That's the only thing I went in for. >> I'm not going to ask you. >> I was getting ready. You said you want to hear my side of the story. >> THAT'S WHAT THE I'M TELLING YOU IS MY SIDE OF THE STORY. THEN DON'T ASK ME FOR my side then. >> Don't ask me for my side. Just read me mying rights and that's it. >> That's all you got to do. >> Read you your rights before I ask you a question. >> Okay. Then just read me the rights. And why the are you talking? Just read the rights. >> I'm not cuz you don't want to talk. You have to read the [ __ ] right. >> In the end, the woman was taken to jail and faces charges of domestic violence and resisting arrest. If convicted, she could be fined up to $4,500, placed on probation for up to 2 years, be subject to a no contact order and face potential consequences to her custody rights. From broken arrogance to escalating aggression, one more bad decision pushed everything past the point of no return. On March 3rd, 2025, police responded to a 911 call reporting a robbery. The caller claimed her phone had been taken, but once officers arrived to check it out, the story took a sharp turn and the truth started coming into focus. >> Sorry. >> Yeah. >> Do you need something? >> Yeah. So, my phone was taken. >> Are you the caller for this? >> Yeah. >> What happened? >> My phone was taken by one of y'all police officers and I wanted that. >> Did you just call 911 about that? >> Yeah. Central 9102. >> Go ahead. >> This is not a robbery. The complainant is 9472's person they were dealing with earlier. >> So, >> I'm sorry. I don't want to like this is a bad news to me already. I don't want to cause no drama. I just want my phone. They said they had like a search warrant where >> I'm still for my phone, >> but >> they didn't show me the search warrant. They just took my phone. >> Okay, but you realize like you can't call 911 and say you were robbed and then give out a random description. >> I I know >> saying that two people left on foot. They're police officers. >> I didn't give a random I was like they had jeans on, they had a shirt. >> Okay, but you understand that like when the police take your phone, it's not a robbery. I know it's not >> have kids, you know. >> Like, and I'm sorry for wasting our time. I just want my phone. >> Yes. But again, like you realize you can't call 911 and say that you were robbed. >> I know. But >> and it's the police that took your phone. >> But y'all don't have a search. That's what I'm saying. Y'all just took my phone. But they for investigation. >> Like y'all going to lie to me. So if I lie to me, I get arrested and stuff, but y'all want to lie to me? Oh yeah, you came on my phone, but y'all take it. How does that work? >> So nobody's lying to you. They told you they were taking your phone. >> Lie to me. He going to laugh in my face. Like what? Don't laugh in my face. >> When confronted, she didn't accept fault in a moral sense. Instead, she offered a transactional apology, just enough to try and get her confiscated phone back. She used her kids as a shield, all while burning emergency resources meant for real crisis, then blamed the system to dodge responsibility for abusing 911, >> right? They couldn't get arrested for anything. So, >> they didn't commit a robbery. >> I know, but they still took my phone without my permission >> with legal authority to do so. >> No, they were a warrant then. >> They seized your phone for investigation. >> Oh, what investigation? I didn't steal no car. They want to kill me in stealing no car. Listen, I don't know who you are and I don't know what you did or allegedly did. Okay? I don't know why they're investigating you or why they needed your phone. All I know is that they were out in your house phone. I have a job though. I'm going to get fired. I have kids. I know you have a job. You're doing your job. >> Go and speak with their supervisor tonight. We don't know why they still >> Bro, I don't have a car. Can you take me there? >> No. >> Parent? >> No. They're at work. I don't want to bother. >> Okay. We can wait till they get home. Like it's not it's not illegal for them to take your phone as part of my investigation. >> I want my phone though. I have school tomorrow. I have kids. I have a job. >> Okay. Well, you're not going to get your phone between now and tomorrow. I can at least tell you that. >> Why? For what? >> I'm going to have to wait all the way to quit to get a search on my phone. >> I don't I don't know how quickly this stuff gets done, but I can tell you it's not within like a night. I don't do that. Okay. I'm on the street. I'm not a detective. But I can tell you that this doesn't take like one night to get this done. >> No. Let me speak to them. >> I I will pass on your concerns. Okay. I will let them know. But this is your home. >> No. Where are you going? >> I'm leaving. >> I'm going to my car and I'm leaving. >> No, you're not. >> I am. >> No, bro. >> I am leaving. >> No, cuz I want my phone. >> You're not going to get about your phone. >> I don't give a Y'all don't care. >> Go to the police and complain about it. You're not going to block your way. No. No. No. Cuz I'm going to do it how I want to do it. You got a problem with it? I don't give a Okay. Okay, we're going to leave. >> We didn't take your phone. >> I didn't take your phone back whenever they're done with it. >> No, they're not. >> A bruised ego turned helplessness into a fight for control of the stage. She forced officers to stay to listen. Every I have kids became a mask. And even though the children weren't present, they're the ones who live with the aftershocks when a parent stretches the law to its breaking point. >> I never seen this before. >> I never seen this too cuz my phone is gone. So, y'all going to have a bad day cuz I'm having a bad day. >> We are not going to have a bad day. >> Yes, y'all are. Cuz if I'm having a bad day, y'all going to have a bad day. >> You're going to stop me from stop me from getting my vehicle. >> All chaos. >> All right. Yes. >> Perfect. >> This is going to be all chaos. >> It's not what we live for. I'm trying to leave. I'm trying to leave and you're not allowing me to get in my car and leave. >> No. No. Not with my phone. Not >> I don't have your phone. >> I know all this thing. So, I'm trying to get into my vehicle. >> We've called them. They're not coming. >> They're not coming. And to be 100% honest with you, if you don't let me get in the car and you let my partner get in the car and leave, you're going to get arrested. >> Bro, ain't nobody stopping y'all getting the car. >> You keep walking. >> I'm just walking. Immediately, you're walking in. >> So, if I go if I go to get my car, there's the open space. I'm not walking in your path. >> This isn't funny. >> The game's over. I'm not playing no games, >> dude. My day is going to be ruined. Y'all going to be >> My day is going to go on just fine. >> And your your day is not ruined. >> Yes, cuz y'all took my phone. What the >> All I know is they took your phone for investigation and that's why they have your phone. That's all I know. >> No. >> And I can tell you that you're not getting lied to me and take my phone. >> Well, I can tell you you're not getting it back today. >> Yes, I am, bro. >> No, you're not. >> Yes, I am. >> No. No. Yes, I am. >> You're not. Bro, all hell is going to break. >> It's not, bro. I don't care if y'all told if y'all got your gun or y'all taser. Bro, what's that going to do? I don't care. >> This is simple solution. We just just let us leave. >> No, y'all not going to leave. >> Just let us leave. >> Oh, >> let us leave. >> Stuck. So, I think we're past that point. >> You're not going to get your phone >> cuz we went over this. >> They have your phone for an investigation. don't have a search warrant. >> Hard to believe, but she told the officers they weren't allowed to leave. She thought she was running the show. And for a moment, she felt like she was. Officers had to restate reality. They're not a phone return desk, and they don't have the power to fix everything on the spot. The more she challenged them, the more doors quietly closed. >> Right now, you're under arrest. >> I'm not. >> Yeah, you are. >> Put your hands behind your back. You're under arrest. Put your hands behind your back. You're under arrest. Stop looking behind your back. >> Move back. >> Put your hands behind your back. You're on your way. >> No. All right. Give us your wrist. >> No. >> Give us your wrist. >> No. >> On your back. Your back right now. Yeah. Okay, sit up, >> dude. Damn. All the mud on me. Damn. >> Do you want to sit up? >> Yeah. >> Okay, sit up. >> I'm going to get myself up. >> Oh, you forgot to roll on my leg. >> Drop your iPad here. Kindly help you. >> Okay, >> help me. You got to get up. >> One, two, three. What are you doing? Knock it off. Let me go. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. No, I'm sorry. I was sit down. Sit down. >> The arrest decision didn't come from cruelty. It came from risk assessment. Officers saw someone pushing herself to a point where harm was possible. Mothers like this often carry unresolved chaos. And when pressure hits, they instinctively replay the same destructive patterns. >> Let me go. Let me go. >> You're under arrest. Get down. Get in the car. Get out. >> No. Get in the car. >> Okay, hold on. What am I being arrested for? >> Get in the car. >> What? >> Get in the car. >> I DIDN'T HIT Y'ALL CAR. >> I hit y'all car. >> Sit down. >> No. Please. No. Please. >> Sit down. Sit down. >> No. Please. Get in the car. >> Fly in the car. >> Oh, please. Bro, let me call, bro. I already have enough coin and I explained everything to you. >> No, sit down. >> Well, I know y'all GET PAID FOR THIS [ __ ] That's why y'all laughing. >> Sit down. >> We're not laughing. >> Y'all get paid for this [ __ ] I need to get out of risk. >> No. Zip out. >> Oh my god. >> Get in the car. >> You're hurting me, bro. >> Get in the car. >> You're hurting me. Let go there. Let go. >> Get in the car. >> Get in the car. >> You're hurting me, bro. >> Get in the car. >> Put your legs in the car. >> Wait. Wait. Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop. Stop.

Act appropriate. Roll over. >> My arm feel [clears throat] your body over. There you go. >> Okay. >> Sit down. >> E. >> Look at that. There you go. >> Thank you. >> In the end, the woman was taken to jail and charged with misuse of the 911 emergency system, threatening an officer, resisting law enforcement, and property damage. If convicted, penalties could include fines, probation or short jail time, community service, and a criminal record, directly impacting employment and custody rights. With the cold outcome still hanging in the air, a single collision had already kicked off a bloodtight battle with no mercy in sight. On February 25th, 2024, an officer responded to a single vehicle crash and suspected the driver might be under the influence. But when the family showed up, the tension spiked fast, turning a routine investigation into [music] chaos and ending with an arrest nobody saw coming. >> Hey, how's it going? Is that your car? Were you just helping out or? >> Yeah. She called me, said she had two flat Well, she told me she had a flat tire. >> Okay. >> So, she sent me the location, so I came, pulled up. >> Are you dad? No. >> Okay. Do you know her? >> Yeah. We at uh at the restaurant just a minute ago. Hotel. Uh where's where's the driver at? Is that her questioning the passengers? >> Yeah, I was saying I'm I'm right here. I'm the driver. I'm calling my mom. She's so mad at me, >> but I'm the driver. >> Okay, I got you. Do you mind just coming coming out of the car and talking? Why are you sitting in the passenger seat? >> Cuz my mom is calling me. I'm so stressed out. >> I'm overwhelmed, but I'm the driver. I was like, I could talk to you, but uh >> Yeah. Do you mind just I'll tell you what. Why don't we since we're kind of in the middle of the road right now, >> why don't you just come talk to me on the sidewalk? >> Annoying. Let's walk this way. Is this your driver's license, please? >> Yes, sir. >> Uh, was it just you in the car? >> Yes, sir. >> I ran over the medium, though. >> Can I I'm so cold. >> Yeah, I know. Right now, you see how all these cars are going so close. >> If you can sit right here in the car, I'm so cold. Listen to me. I'm freezing. I was I have nothing on my arm. >> I got you. But I just need you to bear with me. There's some couple administrative stuff we need to get out the way. >> That's fine. Um I'm so freaking cold. [clears throat] >> At this point, it's no longer just about the wreck. It's about who gets to define who they are. She's sitting in the passenger seat, but insists she was the one driving. And that contradiction makes her talk more and more. When the story doesn't hold, she pivots to physical needs as something that should override everything else. >> I'm nervous because I'm this is my first time getting pulled over by the police. >> Okay. >> Some real stuff. Like I'm an entrepreneur, but Louise, like I'm nervous. >> Okay. So, just tell me how like the crash happened. >> I crashed right here on the medium. >> Okay. And where were you coming from? >> Literally from South Adam Street. >> You were coming from South Adam Street. Do you remember the name of the business that you were at? >> No, sir. Okay. >> I was come I was just literally passing through and I seen the um like right here. >> I hit the the medium. I'm not going to lie to you. >> And that's all. >> All right. >> So, I hit the medium. >> You all right? >> Yes, sir. >> Why don't you just have a seat for me? >> I will. But I have a I have my stomach is hurting. I'm on my cycle. My My tampon is honestly I'm honestly worried. My tampon is in the car. >> Okay. >> I'm bleeding. >> Okay, I got you. But listen, >> no other they have no other. >> Yes, sir. >> Miss Gardner, we can't have you go into the vehicle right now because we're in the middle of >> I just need to grab my tampon. That's literally all I'm not saying I need to >> in the driver's seat. >> In the driver? >> Yes, I need to grab my >> All right. Let me just Let me just turn off your car first. Okay. >> Yeah. >> Yeah. There's not a >> Hold on. Let me Let me just go in there and turn off Miss Garner. Hold on. You're not listening to me. Sorry. >> Let me just turn off the car. Okay. >> Yes, sir. Oh, >> yeah. >> I was on my way to the uh state call when I drove past her. I was running to make sure everything was okay cuz our tires were flat. >> She was in the front passenger seat. >> Mhm. >> And then this gentleman, I guess, was with her earlier. He's in that vehicle that's over there. >> Um, that's where she >> No, no, I don't think I think he just stopped to help her out. Uh, but it looks like she I don't know how she ended up there's there's skid marks right there. Sorry. It looks like >> Oh, that's the >> Yeah. So, she like hit that and then >> So, I don't know if she took it the roundabout the wrong way or what. >> So, she said she was driving. >> Yeah, she's she's she looks similar >> now. She can feel control slipping. The accident stops being paperwork and starts bleeding into family drama. Once people she knows arrive, the whole vibe shifts. What should have been an administrative stop turns into a pride and image situation fast. >> The phone number is supposed to get the airbag. It's a tire. >> It's not a whole car. IT'S A TIRE. I'M PAYING FOR THIS TIRE. >> What's up? Ma'am, y'all need to >> It's NOT YOUR GODDAMN CAR. OH MY GOD. >> IT WAS A MISTAKE. Let's be real. >> All you had TO DO WAS CALL ME. >> I DID. >> WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT? >> I get it. But bro, it's like you understand. I do so much for you as you as the mama. You don't do for me. I do everything for you, bro. Like it's so >> Do you still have a dream? I'm super frustrated. Is this like I'm frustrated like >> I'm frustrated. Do >> your pictures on >> It's not my fault. >> She going the wrong way and she It happens. But here's a good deal. >> She was She was going the wrong way. She hit the curb and you can still see the tire marks, but she spun out. >> How she doing? >> I mean, I don't know. She called me and told me she got she uh she's planning a time. So I pulled up. >> Don't be drank. >> So what's your relationship with her? You know her? He said she called you? >> I mean I I met her a week ago. >> Okay. So she called you? >> Yeah. >> We was at brunch. >> She said they call me at me. I got a flat tire. >> She told me she got a flat tire and told me uh she needs some help. >> Okay. >> So I told her send me a location. So she sent me a location. >> The car's registered to you or to her? >> My husband. He coming. He told me >> is she the sole operator of the vehicle? >> No. He >> So who operates the vehicle? >> No. No, she my husband. >> I don't know. >> My husband >> today she was the only person. >> She was She asked >> She told you that? >> I mean I I She was with me at the uh brunch. >> Okay. >> You can practically see the family pressure in real time. She's not just scared of a ticket. She's scared of being embarrassed in front of her mom and everyone watching. When fear of shame outweighs fear of the law, people start arguing to win right now. Meanwhile, the officer is just trying to pull the scene back into safety. >> Um, you say you're okay to drive, right? >> I just want to make sure you're okay to drive. Okay. [snorts] Cuz I just want to do that investigation. All right. I just [clears throat] Um, >> are you would you be willing to just do do a couple of exercises for me and see if we got some standardized field soiety exercises? >> All right. All right. So, what I'm going to do is I want to get you away from over here right now. Um, just wait right here. I'm going to have an officer. I'm going to we're going to go down there a little bit away from everybody. Okay? And then we can do the the they're optional. You don't have to do them, but I would like to do them just to make sure you're okay. >> And I'm okay. >> My you don't got to do all >> MY GODDAMN. >> WE'RE PULLING OFF AFTER THIS. YOU DOING THE MOUTH. I DON'T WANT TO PUT THIS OUT. HEY. HEY. >> YOU DON'T WANT TO DO ALL THIS. YOU DON'T DO ALL THIS. I DON'T >> I [screaming] my crops. Yes, sir. That's my mama. You're the drop. You You haven't been there for me all my life. You don't see. >> You ain't never been nothing to me. >> You said I'm trying to make [ __ ] like she this and that. I never had my mama. You stay right here. I'll put you in the car and walk around. >> Mommy issues 101. This lady has never been there from me, bro. That would >> It sound like she provided a car for you and you ruined that opportunity. >> This is my mama. What? Bro, I never This is like, >> you know, the crash. >> The arrest stops being just DUI and becomes the result of a whole chain of refusing to step into the role of a cooperating citizen. The moment she's restrained, the story swerves into mommy issues. Instead of facing what she did in the present, she drags everyone into her personal tragedy to reclaim the victim role. >> Yeah. She hit the curb way back. You see like the the flag sign? >> Mhm. >> Way back over there is where it started. >> Mhm. >> She must have went straight. Didn't even go around the roundabout. >> So, you can see where her tire busted over there and started driving. >> Literally. Yes, ma'am. And yes, sir. I I did. And I And I'm not I did. And that's what I said. I hit the medium. >> Let's just get you in my car. All right. >> Yes, sir. >> Let's go. I never >> This is so new. >> This action in front of law enforcement >> because my mom like you don't understand. >> I get that. But again, >> never been there for me. Sit up here for me. >> All right. Do you have anything on you before? >> No, sir. >> Do you have any pockets or anything like that? >> No, sir. >> All right. Is there anything Is there anything on you that I need to know about before we go to the jail that you're not supposed to have with you? >> I'm going to the jail. Wait one second. Wait, wait, wait. I have no record. Why am I going to the jail? Wait, wait, wait. >> Did you do you have anything on you? >> Can you get this hair from my mouth, please? Right here. >> What's this? From my mouth. >> What's on your mouth? >> Never mind. >> It's I can't >> my thing. Yes, sir. I'm compliance, but I never BEEN TO JAIL. I CAN'T GO TO JAIL. >> Hear me out. Listen, >> I can't go to jail. Please. >> I shut up. >> All right. All right. There's something I want to read you, okay? Cuz I want to ask you some questions. All right. >> Do you hear me? There's something I want to read you. >> Please go to jail. >> Listen to me. Can you Are you listening? >> Going up and down. Let's stay Let's stay here. He's going to read them to you, okay? And you get the answer. >> I never been involved in here. >> I get it. >> Let him read it and then you can make a decision from there. Okay. >> All right. Thanks. >> You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can be used against you in the court of law. >> No. >> You have the right to talk to a lawyer and have him positive with you while you're being questioned. If you [laughter] cannot afford to hire a lawyer, one will be appointed to represent you before any question. [clears throat] >> I don't know about >> you can decide on any time to exercise these rights and not answer any questions or make any statement. I give mama. >> I DON'T KNOW, SIR. I DON'T I REALLY DON'T KNOW ABOUT IT, THOUGH. I never been to jail. I don't know what to do. >> In the end, she's taken to jail and faces DUI and nonviolent resisting arrest. After court, she's sentenced to 2 days in jail, 6 months probation, a 180day license suspension, and 50 hours of community service. From a car crash to an ego crash, then a cafe door swings open, and one hot second changes the whole night. A 911 call from Starbucks on September 10th, 2025 brought police to the scene in New Jersey. The store was already closed, but an intoxicated woman was still inside, yelling and refusing to leave. When officers approached, the situation took a turn nobody expected. >> The hell out of her. >> Did she come here normally? You guys never seen her? >> No, I've never seen her. She barged in, started yelling, and she kicked in. >> Was she yelling about like she want something or >> I You can't even understand. She's so intoxicated. How's it going? >> What's up? >> You have my hat? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. >> Where? >> Right here. >> Can I have it? >> What's the >> You got to come on out. What are we doing? >> Sam, what? >> Open the door. >> Cuz I said so. >> Why you acting like this? >> Cuz I'm a [ __ ] I don't know. >> What happened today? What is going on? Why are we here? Why are you in Starbucks? >> I don't like just want my hat. >> Okay. What? What? What are we doing? >> She won't give me my hat. >> Okay. What? >> She won't give me my hat. >> She took your hat. >> Yeah. >> We have your hat. So, I'm How did your hat get off your hat? I don't really care about your hat. Be honest. >> My hat fell off. >> Okay. Your hat fell off. She picked it up. How did it fall off? What is going on here? >> Didn't go that far. >> Hm. >> Did not go that far. Okay, you tell us what happened. Her head just fell off when she was walking. I don't know. >> Uh, she it fell off some time cuz we were like all in an altercation trying to get her back in the store. She was trying to leave, but she stole stuff like she grabbed stuff back there. >> You guys have all the stuff that she >> Yeah. >> No, she still has it. >> Oh, she still has. >> What did she have? >> We have no idea >> cuz we got a 911 call saying you're intoxicated and uh you're arguing with the employees. So, just want to know what happened. Did they do something? >> Yeah. >> What they intoxicated? Why are you here? What What happened before we got here? >> I wanted to use the bathroom. >> Okay. You wanted to use the bathroom. Okay. Did you ask one of the employees or did you just come in and use the Okay. What did they say to you? >> Yes. >> They said yes. Okay. >> What are you guys collectively looking for her just to get her out of here? Does somebody want to sign complaints? You know what I mean? >> She kicked him. >> She kicked her in. >> At first, it was small stuff. Something that could have been handled in minutes, but alcohol and the need to stay in control blew it up. She wasn't there to wrap it up and go home. She needed everything to revolve around her. In her version of the story, she's the center and everyone else is automatically wrong. >> So, you came in here. Okay. Came in here. You asked the employees if I could use the bathroom. Is that correct? >> They said yes. >> Yes. >> Okay. What happened from there? You just used the bathroom? >> Mhm. >> Okay. Did anything else happen between you and the employees? >> No. Okay. I'm pretty sure that video camera footage, are you sure that that's all that happened? >> It kind of hurts right now. No. >> You didn't take any stuff. Okay. You didn't kick harm anybody. You didn't physically get into an altercation with them. Nothing like that. >> No. >> Nothing like that happened. >> No. >> Okay. For right now, we just got to get to the bottom of things. Okay. Show right here. All right. And we'll go from there. All right. >> Do you have a Can I take my shirt off? >> As long as you got something under it. >> If you got something under it, that's fine. I just came in there and I was yelling there. >> Okay. Why are you yelling at me? >> Yeah. >> Why? >> Because I was drunk. >> Okay. All right. So, just because you're intoxicated, just yelling at them. What'd you say to them? >> Give my [ __ ] Give it to me now. I want my coffee. I want my coffee. And then I want to take a Uber. >> Okay. I think we can both agree there's, you know, glider ways to ask for a coffee, right? And it might be a little bit better to get a coffee that way >> instead of just yelling at people, >> you know. All right. So, you came in here, you started yelling at him, "Where's my coffee?" Right. >> You might take a step back. >> I wasn't I wasn't on the um best terms >> with who? >> I'm like, you know, being whatever. I just wanted a coffee. I mean, you're at Starbucks >> and and and I was I said, "I'm sorry." Okay. >> I was wasted. >> Okay. All right. So, when you yelled at them, what else happened? Anything? Did they say anything? >> Yeah. I just I just disturbed them. >> You disturbed them, you said? >> Yeah. They were mad at the fact that I yelled at them. >> Okay. Don't you think that might have been a little bit avoidable, though? You know, just kind of like talking like how you and me are talking, asking, "Hey, look, here for a coffee. No, nothing. Nothing. You're not. You can drink. That's fine." You know, >> she tries to scrub her conscience clean by calling it all a misunderstanding, but the camera and witnesses don't allow edited memories. Every denial makes the control issue louder. Officers offer her an exit with words. She slams that door shut and chooses power over safety. >> Can I have your ID with you? No, my name is Men. >> One second. >> You can find me up. >> Have you got a piece of paper for >> Yeah. Where's the piece of paper that you took from them in the bathroom? >> Where's the piece of paper you took from them? >> Okay. Stand against the >> Just stop. >> You need to stop. >> On the ground. >> Really? >> You're the one creating this whole problem. You're the one who's [ __ ] doing it. >> You're the one that wants to lay on the ground. >> Go ahead. >> No, I don't want to lay on the ground. >> Lay down on the ground, you [ __ ] >> You want to act like a fool? So, here we are. Now, what's in your pocket? So, you have anything that's going to harm us? >> Yeah. Everything. >> Okay. You're going to make everything difficult here. >> No, it's a big deal. >> What are we doing? Thanks. >> Why? Cuz you're under arrest. >> For what? >> Disorderly conduct. Since you don't want to listen to anything we say. >> I would. >> You were listening. Not at all. Just put your legs underneath you. >> Excuse me. >> You made this whole thing a thousand times worse than it had to be. >> The person causing the chaos starts demanding logic while she's the one who just broke every basic rule of it. She argues to claim the right to define reality. And the more she talks, the more she exposes how unsteady she is. At that moment, alcohol isn't just a trigger. It's part of a consumption culture society quietly shrugs off. >> At any point, >> she just like, you know, was like >> pushing on. I ran I ran in front of her and she completely like put my body on me and I'm like, >> I'm going to be honest. I just don't know. Like she hit him, she kicked him and I like think I like pushed like pulled her back or something. >> I mean, no worries. I'm I'm just trying I'm just trying to get her for the >> trouble. No, I didn't like come out and just punch her in the face. But >> I acted my hands back the entire time over here. Obviously, I had her papers back. Well, I shouldn't have had the papers. It would have let her ran. >> So, you guys kind of were trying to get rid of her out of here. >> We did at first and then the cop on the phone like I did say like lock the door and he said, "All right, make sure you lock in the door." So, I figured maybe he wanted us here inside. >> Did she hit you at all? >> No, I don't think so. >> Mhm. Yeah, it was a 10. It had to be like 10:00 on the dot >> when it happened. >> Yeah, >> literally. >> Yeah. Right. Because >> 10:00. >> Yeah. Obviously, we'll get some footage of that. I mean, she's going to be arrested for disorderly of conduct from us anyway. So, it doesn't seem like >> obviously nothing else she had. I guess >> all your paperwork's still there. That stuff's there. >> I don't know why she had need to take that. >> And if you guys take care of >> Sam, I already explained to you. You're under arrest for disorderly conduct cuz we were trying to do our investigation. You just want to act like a fool. The whole thing in there could have been eliminated and now we have about three things pending. >> What? >> How can it be eliminated? How can it be eliminated? >> Nothing's getting eliminated. You're going to be charged and you'll be released. >> Be charged with what? >> Like I said, disorderly conduct. >> Why am I going to be charged with disorderly conduct? >> I'm going read the whole thing on your uh complaint. >> Why? >> Cuz you don't want to listen to us. Like I said in there, >> I do listen. >> Step out. Sam, like I said before, why can't you just listen to us and make this easier? Let's go. Let's go. Where are we going? >> We're going inside so we can process you and get you out of here. >> So just walk. >> All right. So you going to make me here? >> What? >> It's in a different car. >> I don't know why you have to act like this. >> My stuff. >> Sam, we're going to bring you inside and then we'll get your stuff. >> All my things. >> All your alcohol and your hat is in the [ __ ] car and you're going to get it when you get inside. Unfortunately, you're not running the show here. So, you need to get inside and then we're going to process you and get you out of here. I don't understand what's so >> this isn't a one-time burst of aggression. It's a desperate grip on the victim role in front of the lens. She needs a story line that protects her pride. The system stops debating and starts restoring order. The more she argues, the clearer it gets. She refuses to lose even as the price keeps climbing. >> This like I said 10 times to yourself. >> Well, I'm the [ __ ] queen right now. >> All right. >> So, go ahead. Sit down if that's you. >> All right, stand up. >> Give me my shoe. >> You're going in the cell. >> Why? >> Because you're under you don't [ __ ] listen. >> I had I had to make you >> I had >> Yeah. Can you put my other shoe there, >> Sam? Yeah, of course. >> No shoes. >> We'll get you the other shoe. >> Why? Cuz I had to give you a workout. >> Huh? No. All good. >> Yeah, it's all good. Now, we're going to take your belt off, too. All right. >> Yeah, you can do whatever you want. >> I think I want a female officer to take my belt off. >> Well, you're either can take it off or I'm just going to cut it off. >> No, I want a female. I want a female. >> I don't have a female here. So, that's how it works. Face the wall. We can take the handcuffs off. You're making every aspect of this hard as could be. >> Hey, >> good. >> Stand up. Face the wall. Relax. >> Stop. You're only making this worse for yourself. I don't know who you think you're helping. >> Put your hand on the wall. >> Stop clenching up. >> You have to take the handcuff off. Relax. >> Stop clenching up. Don't fight with us. All right, Sam. Take the belt off. Okay. >> Take the belt off and put on the floor. >> In the end, she's arrested and faces charges including trespassing and disorderly conduct along with resisting law enforcement and assaulting an officer. If convicted, possible penalties could include fines up to $10,000, up to two years probation, community service, and court-ordered alcohol treatment. While regret still hangs in the air like stale coffee, the night cracks open because next up, the truly reckless ones roll in and an ATM disappears. On October 5th, 2022, police were dispatched after a hotel reported a theft. Three masked suspects showed up in the middle of the night, snatched an ATM, and were gone in seconds. But one detail left behind at the scene made sure that getaway didn't last long. >> I'll call you. >> Hey, what's going on? >> Uh um guys ran into our hotel, picked up the ATM, put it in a car that was sitting here, and took off. They how' they pick up an ATM? >> It's a smaller um just one of those smaller ones right here. It's like this this tall. It only fits right here. Just like one that you see in a convenience store. >> What the guys look like? >> There was There was two black guys that ran in here, took it. They one guy I saw was wearing gray sweatpants and a blue hoodie and they had like one of those um winter beanie caps on and I saw like red through it and then I saw them on cuz I was in my office and I looked up at the camera cuz I heard like movement cuz they were like let's go let's go. >> They ever hit you or anything or just take it? >> No, they just took it but I ran after them so I could get the license plate and I'm just that was stupid. But it's >> okay. Once you got the tag, what else? >> Yeah, they had a fake I told the um dispatcher there was a they had a fake Illinois plate on it, but when they slammed the trunk, it fell off. So, I was able to get the Florida one. >> The hotel employee reacted fast and honestly kind of risky by following the vehicle just long enough to catch the license plate. Turns out that split-second decision became the turning point. The thieves thought a fake plate was their invisibility cloak, but it fell off and exposed the real plate. Mistake number one that wrecked the whole plan. Like I said, they had a fake Illinois license plate and it was like a real one with a metal one, but when he slammed the door, the trunk door, um, it fell off and then this popped up. >> Yeah. So that's why I got close enough to take it. >> Okay. >> That's probably super. >> No, no, no. Thank god I do. >> Did you see their faces at all? >> Um the one with the the blue hoodie, he just he had a really round face. Okay. >> So they were both black. >> Would you be able to identify him if you saw him again? >> Yeah, I think so. >> Okay. Two black males enter the store and set the ATM machine. One was wearing a blue hoodie, gray sweats. The other one all black, possibly wearing sweats. And third subject, unknown description was the driver. >> All right. Thank you guys. >> Yep. >> Please help yourself. >> Oh, thank you so much. >> I got a second subject with a blue shirt. >> Hey guys, back up to your car. Back up in your car. >> Back up. >> Back up, man. Back up. >> The problem wasn't strength. It was the bad belief that props can fool everybody. The harder people try to disguise themselves, the more the weird details stick. They assumed nobody would get a good look in time. Yet, witness memory can be sharper than they think. The run ended in a serious crash, and that impact basically laid every mistake out in the open. >> I got I got you. I'll get them. Just back up. >> No way. I'll keep the gun point one at a time. >> The two in the back. Stop. >> Camouflage jacket. Come forward. Keep your hands out. All the way out. Forward on the pavement. On the pavement. Face down. Face down. Keep on going. >> Keep coming, buddy. Richie's here, right? Go ahead and cuff him. Give me your clear that car. We'll clear it out through the window. >> You guys want to clear that car? I'm holding the car. >> I thought they said it fell out. subject. >> The gunpoint takedown is the moral hard turn of the whole scene. A crew that look coordinated collapses into three different survival modes the second they're stopped. With reckless offenders, they go from running the play to getting micromanaged by commands. [music] At that point, the whole tough guy idea doesn't mean a thing. >> A black Dodge Rango information in the back. That's my next caller provided us as well. Wait, bro. Oh, the guy. He's in the car. Another one here. Another one. Another car. >> Oh, >> yeah. Three of them. >> Yeah. Yeah. You mess you around, right? >> Yeah. >> Hey, brother. >> Can you hear me? >> Yeah. >> All right. Hey, bud. I want to ask you some questions, but before I do, I'm going to read you your rights real quick. Okay. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to talk to a lawyer and have your lawyer present with you while you are being questioned. If you cannot afford to hire a lawyer, won't be appointed to represent you before questioning. If you decide to answer questions now with our lawyer presenting, you still have the right to stop answering at any time and speak with a lawyer. You may use any of these rights at any time during the interview. Do you understand the rights I just read to you? All right. What's your name, brother? >> Michael Durham. >> Okay. Durham. All right. Hey, brother. Where were you seated at in the car right now? You were in the back seat. I'm in the back seat. >> No. No. Where were you seated? In that car that you were just in. >> You want to talk to your lawyer? >> All right, that's fine, buddy. Feed it. >> Thank you. >> When someone says, "I want a lawyer." It isn't always a declaration of innocence. Sometimes it's just learned survival instinct. Sometimes it's knowing what's coming. Sometimes it's a street habit. The second suspect gets questioned again and again. And the more he talks, the more cracks show, especially when the core storyline is already basically locked in. >> Hey, brother. How's it going? >> Hey, uh, I'm Deputy Warhouse County Sheriff's Office. What's your name, buddy? >> What is it? >> Darius Henderson. >> Darius Henderson. All right. I'm going to read your rights real quick cuz I want to ask you some questions. And obviously, you're a handcuff and a patrol car. I I don't want to violate your rights. Okay. Um, you have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be is against you in the court of law. You have the right to talk to a lawyer and have your lawyer present with you while you are being questioned. If you cannot afford to hire a lawyer, one will be appointed to represent you before questioning. If you decide to answer questions now with our lawyer present, you still have the right to stop answering at any time and speak with the lawyer. You may use any of these rights at any time during the interview. Do you understand the rights I've just read to you? Okay. Where were you seated right now, bro? >> Where in the car? Where you at? >> You were the driver. Okay. Hey, why why why didn't you stop for me, brother, when I turn on my random blue lights? What's that? So, why'd you keep on turning off your lights? >> So, why were you going 130 mph then? >> So, why did you crash? >> You're in hospital. That >> I mean, honesty goes a long way, man. You know what I mean? Especially if you're just honest with me at this point. Obviously with everything that happened. All right. I just want to make sure everything's fine from this point forward. So just be honest with me, bud. Why? Why were you going that fast? Do you think you could get away? >> Okay, I'll be right back with you. >> In the end, all three were taken to jail, but only two were formally charged. One was found not competent to stand trial. The two remaining suspects were sentenced to 9 months of probation, then violated it, stemming from a theft charge. They came in thinking masks and a fake plate would make them ghosts. But one small slip turned the whole getaway into a short ugly finish. On February 2nd, 2024, around 6:00 a.m. in St. Petersburg, police responded to a call about two children living in dangerous conditions and a possible overdose inside the home. What they found was chilling unconscious adults, lost and frightened kids, [music] and a house silently screaming of neglect. >> And you said you never saw a woman at this house, just a man. >> I just see a guy. >> Okay. >> And he walks down the street all the time and be driving a little Toyota Corolla sometime and that's it. >> Toyota Corolla and that's it. >> That's it. >> Okay. >> Never really to see nobody here but him here. And you said what? You haven't seen the car here? >> Mhm. >> All right. >> So, I'm female. >> Um, >> what' you say? >> Yeah. >> Wow. >> Do you have Do you know your social? >> My social? >> Yeah. [laughter] >> What? I'm getting >> No, you're just you're just asking someone. >> Yeah. for your social security number. >> Yeah. You just go down as a witness. You don't have to. >> I don't want to get it. >> We just always ask when somebody does. >> Well, thanks for coming over. >> Mhm. That's what I do for them. >> No, you're helpful. >> Yeah, because I know kids be over here and really >> in the neighborhood. >> They're the only kids in the neighborhood. >> It's the ones I see is right here. >> And they play out in the yard all the time. But this lady here don't have no kids. Older lady. them people there, older couple. Them right here, older couple. The lady on the corner, she have no kids. Feed cats all day. Um, these guys got bigger kids. Like I said, I don't have babies running around. The lady next door to me don't have no kids, so I'm shocked. >> But the ones that have kids, you see them out and about. >> It's nobody but right here. >> Yep. Okay. And they're outside playing. >> Yeah, they play all the time. >> Neighbors didn't even know kids live [music] there. That says a lot. The children had been completely isolated. No playing outside, no interaction with others. What looked like a quiet home turned out to be a silent prison. Prolonged neglect doesn't always leave bruises. Sometimes it just leaves kids invisible. It's >> talk to you about what's going on. So, with that being said, some of the questions I might ask may to somebody be seen incriminating. So, I'm going to read your rights just to talk to you. Okay? It doesn't mean you're under arrest. You're not under arrest. You're not handcuffed. Do you understand that? >> Okay. You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to talk to a lawyer and have him or her present with you while you're being questioned. If you cannot afford to hire a lawyer, want to be appointed to represent a you decide at any time to exercise these rights and not answer any questions and make no mistake. Do you understand these rights I explain to you? >> Okay. Having these rights in mind, you wish to talk to me. >> Huh? >> Having these rights in mind, you wish to talk to me. >> Just about the whole situation. >> Whole situation? I'm sleep. You ready to go to work? >> Jail, >> huh? >> They're taking you to jail. >> So, this is your house. >> My mom. >> Your mom? Okay. How long you been living here? >> Just 3 months. >> 3 months? >> She come over there with her mom. >> Okay. How long has she been living here? >> She came over with breakfast. She didn't have a place to stay here. 3 months ago. >> No, same time I brought all of them here. I take care everybody. >> Okay. And I'm sorry that that's my fault. I missed it. So when did you start living here? >> 3 months. I was staying I over there 5100 daily. It was over all of us over there. >> What? >> She uses Yes or no? >> She she said you took her to the clinic. >> Yeah. Okay. Um, when's the last time she went? >> Yesterday. >> Yesterday. >> Okay. Do you know if her two have used since yesterday? >> Huh? >> Did she use? >> I I don't know. She I can't I can't Maybe any time to what? >> The woman's ongoing addiction treatment pointed to a history of [music] substance abuse, raising real concerns about her ability to safely parent. Meanwhile, the man's behavior was evasive and unsettling, setting off even more red flags about the children's living environment. >> Do you know I was at work? >> Okay. What do you do for work? >> The taxi. >> Oh, you drive the taxi. >> Okay. >> Um, when we came in, you guys have passed out. We knocked the first time. >> Was there an incident prior to us getting here with one of the children being outside? >> No. Nothing at all. >> No, we haven't been here about 3 months. I'm kid never been outside the house. No, >> we got called about an hour before we woke you guys or probably about 15 minutes before we woke. >> I heard that. And the door should the situation with that door was that when it came old house we >> I understand >> it was knocked off the hinges by one of the air conditioner. I bought it from >> We found the weed pipe in there. She said she smokes weed. She said you guys both smoked weed. When's the last time you smoked weed? >> Smoked weed yesterday. >> Yesterday before you guys went to bed. when you woke up. >> That was yesterday afternoon. >> Okay. >> Um, we found a weed pipe next to bed. It's in plain view. Right next to the bell on the floor. Okay. Is that commonly where you leave your weed pipe? >> No. >> Okay. >> Then they ask you about now again where she's sitting on the couch. There's that folding tray table. There's a crack pipe on. >> Are you aware of the conditions of the house if they've been the kids have been staying for 3 months with you guys? >> Yeah. I want to put it in. Normally everything is 6 months since that door was up and fine. Before that just happened over the last couple weeks and I haven't had any money to fix it. So I'm trying to get stuff fixed in my mom trying to get stuff done and it's just I haven't said that. That's all. >> Let me ask you your honest opinion. Okay. Just this is a question as a father myself from the outside looking in. Okay. Do you think or would you have ever thought if you had kids you would let your kids live in a house like this? And I and I get like she said it's not like this all the time, but if you walked into this house right now and said there's two kids living here, would you sit and think, "Yeah, that's normal." >> One officer asked the tough question headon. "How do you think your kids are living?" The father hesitated. That pause said everything. He knew the answer, but either couldn't face it or didn't have the strength to change it. What would you think? >> It's not a purpose. I'm not I'm trying to be >> It's what? All right. What was your first name? >> Nathan. >> Nathan. All right. Do me a favor, Nathan. I'm going to have you put your hands behind your back. Okay. >> What do What are you getting arrested for? >> They're both being arrested. I'll tell you what. Stay cooperative. I got two pair of handcuffs. I see you're a bigger guy. >> What? You got some big wrists, too, man. What? Can you explain while? >> Yeah, I'll tell you in a second. >> Yeah, you guys are both going to be under arrest for child neglect. Okay. >> Child, >> because the living conditions of the house are not feasible for children. Okay. There's obviously a reason we were Our initial plan was just to take the children. Um cuz they shouldn't be living here. You guys have drug paraphernalia that's easily accessible to them. You're both passed out when we get here. The house is disgusting. You have mold, rotting food. >> So, I'm trying to >> Yeah, that's been here before we got here. You want to put her in yours? because I'm he's probably going to go mine. >> Kids were also here before we got here. >> Yeah. Just for the room. >> Okay. So, you guys are both going to be under for child neglect >> and Yep. And the children are be going to be coming with us. We've already contacted DCF. They're going to come gra. >> Due to his size, officers had to use oversized leg restraints to safely detain him. The charge was clear. Child neglect based on the hazardous home, drug use indicators, and adults found unconscious in the same space as children. Not long after, the mother was arrested, too. Take this thing off. I I can >> just want to pinch your curves. There you go. I'll put it below. You're good. >> Hold on. Let me lock these so you don't get tight. >> Listen, is there anything inside your raw? Anything you're hiding? >> Can you bring anything out of jail? It's >> I can't feel it. I can't feel it. Can I Can I Do you normally keep stuff in there? >> Yes. >> Okay. >> Can I check? Can I check to see if there's anything? I don't think there's >> Do you know if there's anything in there or you don't? >> I don't think there's anything in there. You don't think or you don't know? >> I don't think so. >> Okay. Well, that's fine. We'll we'll >> I don't want to get another instruction. >> Okay. Listen, listen. If >> I have one. Okay. So, here's the deal. When we take you to jail, we'll tell them that you may have something in your bra, but that we weren't able to search you here and we know about it and they know about it's not an introduction. >> I can't check it right now. >> So, we'll let you tell. We're going to put you in the van. So, we'll let you check it for you the van. Okay. Okay. Okay. All right. Okay. You >> sure there's nothing in there? >> I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. Fair. All right. going on, please. >> Yeah. Well, here. I'll tell you what. I'm just going to let you check it now and then if there's anything. >> Okay. I'll tell you what. We will uh >> anything. >> Yeah. Nothing. No. Okay. >> In the end, both were charged with child neglect and the man faced an additional [music] charge of abuse. The home was covered in mold, trash, urine, rotting food, and drug paraphernalia within arms reach of children. One child even had a cigarette burn. These charges can lead to prison time, court-ordered [music] rehab programs for drugrelated cases, and permanent loss of parental rights. On September 20th, 2024, at 4:00 a.m., police received a chilling call. A 5-year-old boy, non-verbal, filthy, and nearly no clothes, was wandering alone in the street. But when they followed the trail back to his home, what they found inside was worse than anyone imagined. >> Hi, what's your name? >> Do you want to go inside real quick? >> No. >> No. Okay. Who else here? >> Nobody. Just you and my son. Just you and your son. Okay. Do you have an ID on you? >> Uh, yeah. >> Your your son is here. >> No, he's not. >> Okay. >> It's me and my son. >> Oh, you and your son do live here. Okay. >> My house is a mess. I'm not going to lie. Like, I've been trying to move out. So, yeah, it's really bad. But >> what is really bad? >> My house. You can't walk nowhere. Do your lights work? >> Yeah. Yeah. See, like there's blankets of clothes everywhere. >> I'm sorry. >> Okay. >> Let's set back up. >> Um uh going to come over here with me for right now. Um I'm going be honest, Miss Paws, I have a lot of questions for you on how this happened. >> Um say, if I'm going to be honest, I sleep a little hard. I've been sensitive more when I wake up, but I have to move out and I just started uh well, I started three extra classes, but right now I'm taking six. So before you >> before you say anything else, >> okay, >> um, understand that I need to ask some questions. >> Okay. >> So I'm going to have you go sit in the front seat of my car real quick. Me and you are going to talk, okay? And we're going to figure out whether your son is coming back today. >> Inside Lisa's home, chaos rained, blankets and clothes scattered everywhere. But it wasn't until she was questioned in the back of a patrol car that the deeper truth began to unfold. >> Right. Just so we can see us, folks. Okay, this is reported, just so you know. Uh, I'm just going to make sure you know what they are. You're born in 2005. How old are you? >> I'm 19. >> You're 19 years old. Okay. So, I'm sure you've never been read your rights. Just cuz you see it on TV and it means everyone's under arrest. >> Um, when you read your rights, it's just because I want to ask you questions. >> It's not cuz you're under arrest. Not cuz like anything like that. It's cuz I want to ask you questions. Okay. So, his rights to remain silent. Anything you say can or will be against you in a court of law. >> If I talk to a lawyer and have him present with you while you're being questioned. Let me be honest with you. Your son's been out by himself >> for 2 hours. >> Over 2 hours. >> That's super concerning for me. >> No. Yeah, that is >> like uh So, can you tell me like >> how that would happen? Like I I really I'm really baffled. I don't know how that would happen. >> Honestly, I was sleeping. I had just woke up at like probably 5:30 and I noticed he was in the bed. So, I got up. I said, "Hey, I want to go." >> He wasn't He wasn't in the bed at 5:30. >> Yeah. >> I'm going to stop you there. >> No, I know. I know. But when I woke up, that's when I noticed him gone. >> Okay. And [clears throat] so him being out for 2 hours I believe is because I was sleeping so I did not notice him. He's very he's very smart and he does know how to unlock the door. He's done it multiple times for my mom. But it's it's not okay that he is gone. Like I I try to like teach him not to like open the door and not to leave without me. It's just kind of >> No, that is so concerning cuz I like when I was on the phone >> I was like I don't know how long it's been. Where is he? >> Sure. you know, he's I honestly I have no words, but he can lock the door and I'm going to start putting that couch in front of it cuz um >> Yeah, we Has he ever done this before? >> Yeah. And I'm not going to lie or anything like that. Um >> when's the last time this happened? >> I'm not sure. They actually he took my keys the last time. So they got to identify him, [music] find out where he was and call my mom. Lisa agreed to talk after being read her Miranda rights, suggesting she either believed she'd done nothing wrong or hoped that being honest might soften the consequences, but her excuse that she had been sleeping deeply and didn't realize her son had wandered off only highlighted how dangerously inattentive she had been. >> What time did you guys go to sleep? Uh probably like I probably did go to sleep at 11 or 12:30 at uh at like 9 9:30ish. Okay. >> And then he did sleep in the car during the cruise. >> Yeah. Um during [music] a normal day >> uh usually like 10 or 9:00. >> Okay. And when do you what time does you normally wake up? Uh, we [clears throat] wake up at 6 or 7:00 in the morning uh for school. >> He goes to school? >> Yeah. >> Has dad involved at all? >> No. >> No. >> No. >> Has he ever been? >> No. >> Is he on the birth certificate? >> No. >> Okay. >> No. I pretty much told him I was pregnant and that I don't want to be with him and that was it. >> So, you're the only prayer on the birth certificate? >> Yes. >> [clears throat] >> Do you get help from anyone else? >> Uh, my mom. >> She walks. >> Yeah. >> Okay. Where does she live? >> Avenue. My the sister I was on the phone with usually will come here. >> Um, I'm going to have you go sit by your car for a second. I need to make some phone calls. I'm going to be completely honest with you. I I don't know what the resolution is right now. Um, because the 2 hours, especially, it was raining this morning. It was cold this morning. Um, I'm going be honest. The word I'm going to use is negligent. Right. It's not intentional. You didn't intentionally put your son outside. I don't believe that at all. But I do believe that you were negligent with your child today. I'm going be completely honest with you. I don't like lying to people. Miss Pass. I I believe that honesty is the best thing in these situations. And I really appreciate you being honest with me. Just cuz I'm saying you're negligent doesn't mean that you're in trouble. What actually that means is maybe I need to get you a lot of resources to help you. >> Um, >> please. I've been asking my case worker for therapy for the last 10 years. Who's your case worker? >> She admitted to raising the boy on her own with little to no help and described ongoing conflict with her mother and sister. Yes, she said she loved her child. And yes, she looked remorseful, but love alone doesn't erase neglect. She was arrested for good reason to protect that little boy. >> Yeah, please help me. But um please, if you don't want him to go back, please give it to my family. >> So, Miss P, it's not about what I want. It's about what's the safest for your son. Okay. I don't I I don't have a want. I don't have a bias here. It's about I do what is safest for him. >> I just can't. >> Okay. I'm sure. >> Go hang out by your car. Let me make some phone calls. What am I being? >> You're being you're going to be placed under arrest for neglect of your child. I'm going to keep your phone so you can call your mom and we can hopefully place your son with one of your family members. Um, right now >> I really do care for my son and I kind of pissed all the time. It's not it's not a game to me. >> I hear you and no one is saying it's a game. >> But when your son's out at 4 in the morning in the rain and walking along a busy road >> with no lights and has a possibility to get hit by a car, >> I take that pretty seriously. Right. >> No, I do. I do. As soon as I woke up and he wasn't there, I ran barefoot with no like pants on. >> Sure. Do >> you have anything on you that's going to hurt? Sticker poke me? Go ahead. >> Do you want your keys to go on your property with your property? >> [ __ ] There's something folder right there. He should be like a >> jacket, a shirt, and then maybe some >> size of these two. >> Yeah. And then the gold key is the top lock for the screen door. >> Gold key. >> The little one. >> This one. >> No, there's a gold uh square key. >> Gold. This one. >> The top lock. You said >> it is all locked up. Your car is locked. >> I just locked it. Yeah. >> Her fear was real. You could see it. Just 19 years old, now facing jail. and the possibility of losing custody of her 5-year-old son with autism. Let that sink in. She became a mother at just 13. She didn't just need a lawyer. She needed a support system that probably never existed in her world. >> I don't know what's like >> I have to get back at life. Like not like that. >> Okay, Miss Listen to me. You'll get a chance to call when you get booked in. I'm not going to give you a chance to call right now cuz I need to do your paperwork. Okay? So the faster we get this done, the faster you go up there and come back. >> Okay. >> Booked in. >> Yes. You're going to jail. >> Like I don't know what it is, but I do care for my son. >> Okay. Okay. >> I do my best. >> No one said you don't care for >> No, but I'm going to jail for negligence. And right now me and my son are going to be homeless in 2 weeks if I don't find an apartment. >> I'm very sorry to hear that. Like you said resources and I have a social worker that will still follow up with you. But right now, my only real care is to make sure you're trying to take care of him and not on the road at 4 in the morning where you get hit by a car. >> Yes. But I just don't understand how things could have been different. I I did do precautions. I tried the little alarm. I don't know if you've seen that on the door. >> Okay. And that's stuff you can say in front of your attorney or a judge when you decide to do that. Okay. But that's not something that's going to change. I'll come >> this gentleman is going to ask you a few questions. Okay. What's your idea? Um, not anytime soon. Okay. He's going to determine if you even get to claim your mom at this point. Okay. He's just going to ask you a few questions. >> Yeah. >> How's it going? Jeremy, are we at CF? What's your name? >> Okay. So, um, last night we went on a cruise after having dinner with his auntie and around 9:00 I picked up one of her friends to go with us. We were just like driving around looking at the city lights, nothing special. >> Yeah, I'm not sure if the officer did say he might let you um contact him if he needs to, but I don't know. not to hit up to him but because he said he want to look up to him. >> Okay. >> Um basically basically we're to work with them so we can try to find him a safe place to go. So at that point if he feels as though your mom is the best option then at that point we're going to contact your mom. >> Yeah. This is your mom Stephanie. Yes. >> Okay. Yeah, contact her first if she can't do it or did you know >> she may be sleeping >> so you might have to call her more than once. >> Okay. Do you uh will they be able to pass background test? >> No. >> What? >> Will they be able to pass the background test? Cuz we run their background and stuff. >> I think Asa will. I'm not sure about my mom. >> Okay. >> I don't know. >> Yeah. Do you need a call? Who's it Asa? Is she your >> She's my sister, but she doesn't know. In the end, she was charged with child abuse due to severe neglect, allowing her son to wander alone in the street at 4:00 a.m. exposed [music] to serious danger. If convicted, she could face prison time, fines, and permanent loss of custody. All meant to protect the child and send a clear message about the cost of neglect. On April 18th, 2025, police responded to an emergency call at a public park in Canton, Ohio. An 11-year-old girl had been violently assaulted by a 20-year-old woman. But as the truth about the head strike and the motive behind it began to surface, the case turned darker than anyone could have imagined. >> 1500 hours >> knocked her unconscious and they have all recorded right here. A friend recorded the entire thing. Where is she? Do you know where she's at? She's in the house. She literally ran. What's her name? I don't know her name, >> but she's in the house right now. >> 1634. >> What is the lady that did it look like? >> She's wearing all black smacky ass booty shorts. All right, you guys do me a favor. Just go down here. Okay. >> Hi. >> Get in here, cat. >> Is this two units? >> No, it's one. >> It's one unit. >> One big one. So, are you the are you the one? >> No, I'm not the one. She's upset. So, what happened is that little girl was hitting her first. Like, she put her hands on Destiny first. >> So, I understand that she's upset, but we got to talk to her. Okay. >> She won't come out. She's afraid she's going to go to jail. >> Well, she doesn't come out and talk to her. >> Well, if she doesn't come out, we're going to get search for her and go to her. Okay. As of right now, we're just talking to people. If she doesn't come out, that's called instruction. >> All right. >> What's that, sir? They're they're Yeah, right there. >> Bridge. All right. Yes, sir. >> Officers thoroughly searched the area to make sure the suspect didn't slip away. She claimed the child hit her first, but her harsh words and excessive violence told a different story. one of emotional instability and a shocking lack of compassion. Officers reviewed footage on the spot to assess what really happened. >> Some lady curb stomped this kid. Um I guess there's a they said I guess there's a video. I'm trying to >> You guys got the video I can see. Real quick >> and there's a police camera at the park as well. >> You want me to go? >> Definitely. them people right there weren't even over. >> Where's it happen in the video? I noticed it's pretty long. >> Don't need to see the whole thing, but just for medical stuff. >> It happened at talking to the person. You know, he's talking about in the video where the violence started. He said, "Call the police. This is where they're provoking him to kind of run to pay." >> Then she runs up the thing. >> Do you know these people at all or >> No. Okay. >> My daughter even told her kid was cute. >> Who's recording this? She ran up there >> and was stomping my daughter. That grown ass big lady. >> All right. >> Let him go down there. How do I spell your name? >> B E S T A N Y. >> Was your last name Scott? >> Yes. >> It's called normal. >> Yep. >> Was she with you? >> Who all was with you? >> Her son and me. >> So what happened? >> So she's saying that she was running her mouth to them. They started yelling back and forth. She slapped her. How old are you? >> Uh 19. >> So the the kid hit you? >> Yes. >> Okay. >> What happened after that? Where were you guys at? >> Started fighting at the park. >> We was up at the park on the day and I ran up to her because she was talking [ __ ] So I talked my [ __ ] back. She hit me and I hit her back. >> How'd you hit her back? >> All I did was smack her in the face and start smacking her around. >> You didn't do nothing else? >> No. Even though the young woman insisted it was self-defense, the fact that she admitted to striking the child was critical. But when you're 19 and the victim is 11, smaller, younger, and clearly overpowered, things stop looking like self-defense and start sounding like something else entirely. Once police had enough evidence, they didn't hesitate to make the arrest. >> What if I told you it's all on video? I just watched it. >> So, you're going to be under arrest. Stand up. Put your hands on your back. >> Stand up. Put your hands on your back. Look at her laughing and smiling and [ __ ] Just no people are coming after you. Oh, NO PEOPLE ARE COMING after you. No people are coming after you. >> I recommend not saying anything to further information. >> You need to SHUT THE [ __ ] UP. NOBODY ASKED YOU TO RUN YOUR DICK SUCKERS. NOBODY ASKED YOU TO RUN YOUR DICK SUCKERS. AND THAT ASSAIL. >> OH, I'll die in jail and you'll make sure of it. You sound so happy for yourself. >> Before I get involved in >> Yeah, she needs to shut the [ __ ] up before she gets smacked. >> Smack you the [ __ ] up. How you feel about that? AND I HOPE YOUR DRIVER DIED. >> GO AHEAD. >> STOP. HEY. HEY. HEY. HEY. It's okay. LILIANA DIE. >> Where you guys at? Take home. Please. AND CALL MY 3. The girl's mother did the right thing by calling the police before things got even worse. But you can't blame her for rushing in and confronting the attacker after hearing her daughter's life had been threatened. Paramedics arrived quickly and made sure the young girl was treated safely and promptly. >> Yeah, she's going to get charged. >> Okay. Um, where's dad? >> They just went that way. Did they take the the kid with them? I'll go see what I can find. I have three names for you whenever you're ready. >> Go ahead. >> It's unlock. >> Brandon Brown, Armando Morris, Omar Ramsey. >> As far as I know, besides mom, no. But mom, did you guys see what she did? >> No. So, >> this lady we have in cuffs was talking [ __ ] So, mom decided to charge. And >> are you arresting mom? >> Yeah. >> Let me I might be able to cut her summons. >> But still, >> let me see what we can do with >> We just We need dad back here. >> Yeah. >> If dad's not part of it, we need Dad back here. >> She's got to go. >> Yeah. Yeah. Um I'm going to go try to get phone number at least. See what we can do. >> Can you roll them? >> Thank you. >> Where do you guys live? Cuz you're 34. >> Is that where your husband just went? >> Yes. >> Okay. Cuz he's going to have to go with the kid. >> He just left. >> He had to take my youngest over there to my brother. >> Is that where he went? >> Yes. >> Is that dad or boyfriend? >> That's my boyfriend. >> So, it's not your kid's dad? >> No. My youngest daughter's dad is deceased. >> Okay. Well, what are we going to do with your kid? Cuz your kid has to go to the hospital. >> My brother is there and he can go with her to the hospital. My grandparents will meet them there.

And the video shows her smashing the kid's head on the floor of the the metal. >> Let's be honest, the size difference here was obvious. This wasn't a fight. It was an attack on a child.

She was saying how the lady we have arrested saying, "I hope your kid dies." So mom got all pissed charges at her. So I kind of pushed her against the car and like you can't do that. So I think we're just going to give her a summon for obstructing and disorderly conduct so she can go to the hospital and then we're going to take her for the assault. That's right. So yeah, sounds good. So thanks. Hey, >> definitely a southwest call. >> You need a hand getting out at all. Watch this little curve here. have a seat on that bench. Okay. You want to add any >> Destiny Scott? >> In the end, the suspect was arrested and hit with serious charges, assaulting a minor, obstructing police, and disturbing the peace with an excessive and unjustified use of force.
