She broke my phone. This is $1,000. >> She's on drugs. >> That's it. She's horrible person. She just came in the house and she was like, "Where's my rent money? >> I don't want this. I'm a nice person. >> Why are you yelling?" >> On June 3rd, 2026, chaos erupted in a shared apartment when a heated motheraughter clash turned violent over rent money and drugs. Screams echoed, blood [music] spilled, and a phone shattered. Tensions boiled over in a brutal showdown. Watch the video to see what actually happened. right now. You need to trust her. Please, please just get her away. [screaming] [laughter] >> Hey, what's going on? [laughter] >> Can you come outside and talk to us, please? What's going on? >> She broke my phone. >> Okay, go over there and talk to her. Where? WHERE IS SHE? >> WHERE IS SHE? >> Where is she? >> Where is she? [laughter] >> Are you okay? >> Do you Is that your blood? >> No. >> Whose blood is that? >> Yes. >> Okay. Stay over here. >> Do you know where she went? No, [laughter] I don't know. >> She's not inside the house. >> Is anyone inside that house? >> I think so. She's calling my grandma. >> There we go. Is that her? >> There's Okay. What happened? >> Is that her? [laughter] >> Can you tell me [clears throat] what happened? >> She's on a whole bunch of drugs and she came in here. >> Okay. >> Just making a whole bunch of noise. >> How old are you, ma'am? >> Okay. >> [laughter] >> I'm tired of her. >> Okay, >> broke my phone. This is $1,000 already. >> No wiping laceration for you. >> Yeah, that that's fine. I'm going to have her talk to her again anyway, but you can talk. Great. >> Can you tell me what happened this morning? >> She was in the living room doing a whole bunch of coke and I come out OF MY ROOM JUST MINDING my business and she's mad at me asking me for rent money and all this stuff and just just saying a whole bunch of [ __ ] And this is my apartment, too. Okay. >> Then what happened? >> And then she just I sat on the couch petting my dog and she just took my phone to go chase her for it and she just >> broke my phone. >> The mother was visibly bleeding. Yet, the daughter seemed more concerned about her smashed $1,000 phone. It was a classic family reunion fueled by drama and allegedly something stronger. Imagine being 19 and thinking a phone screen is more important than your mother's head wound. >> Why do you think she >> I don't know. >> Cuz she's on drugs. >> She's on drugs. >> What happened to >> um She just smashed it. Okay, >> that's it. >> Yeah. >> And then Nothing else happened up there. >> Hang tight here for me. >> She hit me. Okay, stay out here. >> She needs to go to jail. I don't want her here. >> I don't want her anywhere near here. >> What's going on today? >> She just hit me in the head with an ashtray. >> She was in the living room doing >> I don't know. She woke up and she was pissed off cuz I asked her for the rent money. >> She came out here. She came out of her bedroom. >> This is my apartment. >> I was sitting on the couch and she hit me. >> Did she throw it at you or did she? >> She hit me with it like in her hand. >> You don't know where it went? >> See if I can find it. What's your name? >> Your name? >> Kavina. >> Spell. >> K A V I N A. >> Huh? >> K A V I N A. >> K I V A N A. What's your last name? >> Thanks. What's your middle initial? >> M. >> And what's your date of birth? >> 71. >> And what's your guys' relationship? >> That's my daughter. >> How old is she? >> She's 19. Was the ash? >> Was the ashtray stone in here? >> Yeah. >> Was it in here that she threw? >> She she hit you against your face. >> Was it? >> Okay. Where when she hit you, where was she standing? >> She I was sitting on the couch and she came and hit me with it. >> And then did you walk to the bathroom? Did >> you go to the bathroom to get away from her cuz she's freaking out. I don't know what's wrong with her. >> Yeah. I just can't find any ash. >> We're looking for it. blood trail from there into the bathroom and then out. Yeah. >> Okay. >> Did she have what happened? What happened to her? >> What's her statement? >> We haven't even broached the subject of hitting her yet, but she says that >> she says that she was in here. said she was in here doing a bunch of code >> and uh she got mad at her yell and scream and grab >> I need water. >> All right, you got to stay outside though. >> You have bottles of water. >> Just bring me the gallon in the refrigerator. >> She probably has drugs somewhere in there. I don't know. She probably hid them. Can't get enough refrigerator. >> Mom spilled her side. She was hit with an ashtray after asking for rent money. A reasonable request that apparently triggered a battle. The daughter, Kayla, counter claimed that her mother was doing coke in the living room. Both women shared the lease, but neither seemed to share a grip on reality at that moment. Stop. One of those lacerations that you can >> glasses >> possibly go either way. >> Can't even get in the refrigerator. >> Oh, it's the doors on the other side. >> I know, but there's a whole table and stuff in front of it right now. So, >> I don't even know what What do you do when somebody breaks your phone? Do you report them? >> This is probably going to be at 10:15. So, just >> Can I report? Is she going? >> Yeah. >> I see real quick. >> And then that was all she's telling us right now. >> Hi there. >> I'll have to check behind the couch. Man, do you know where the ashray went? I don't know. >> Are you sure it was an ashtray? >> Yeah, it was Well, it was a metal like we use it for an ashray. >> One of the things you want to watch for even see anything that looks like an >> Amsterdes [clears throat] and get some stitches But it's also not so deep. >> Yeah, I know. >> There's blood in here. >> You don't have to go to the hospital. If you want to go to hospital, >> you can have him take if you'd rather do that. That is an option. That's up to you. We don't have to. We don't have to take her yet. >> Not yet. That's what I wanted her to. Can Can you fill her in >> since she's going to the hospital? Just fill her in. The mysterious ashtray magically vanished, which was suspicious considering the very real blood trail from the couch to the bathroom. Kayla's story was already shifting like sand, claiming she was just minding her business before the phone theft. The math wasn't mathing. Somewhere, logic tapped out, packed its bags, and left this mess to explain itself. >> What's So what what's going on with you and mom? What started this whole argument? Just >> she's on drugs. >> Okay. That's it. She's horrible person. >> Okay. >> She just came in the house and she was like, "Where's my rent money?" >> Relax. Relax. Relax. >> Come on. Nobody believes me. Nobody. >> I've had the cops called on her thousands of times before when I was younger. >> Okay. For what? >> For this because she's crazy. >> So, um, this is her mom. Mom states were fighting over some rent honey and that she was sitting on the couch and that she picked [laughter] up an astray and threw it at her. I've yet to locate that astray. I don't know where that is. Do you want to look for it or you want me to help you look for it? >> Where's my money? >> I want to ask her. >> Come on. Nobody was like asking her. Before we even ask her anything, she's got to get >> thousand of times before when I was younger. >> What's your name? >> Did you guys swap statements? >> Yeah. >> Yeah. I let her know what mom said. Um, I'm just trying to locate what it was, but I was gonna ask her, but she hasn't been branded yet. So, >> do you want to come talk to mom at all or >> Hey, mom. So, did she pick up whatever she threw at you and walk away with it at some point? Did you pick it up? >> Because I don't see anything here. >> What is a metal? A metal like >> How big is it? Is it does it like >> It's pretty big. Like it was used for the ashtray. I don't know where it would have went. I'm sorry. I don't know. >> Oh, don't be sorry. I'm just trying to locate it. I just don't see it. >> Okay. You got the gist of that story. >> I was just trying to help. >> Where's my dog? >> What What did your What does your dog look like? >> Where's my dog? >> What does your dog look like, man? >> It's a black dog. Okay. Is he a big dog? A little dog? >> Mediumsized dog. >> Oh my god. >> Oh my god. My dog's gone. Oh my god. Where the hell is my dog? >> What kind of dog is it? >> It's a black lab. >> Where's my dog? Where's the dog? >> Ma'am. Ma'am, I need you to stay in here. Just stay in here. >> Can you please find my dog? >> What? We'll listen. I need you to step inside. >> Has your dog left the house before? >> No. >> Okay. >> Oh my god. >> Okay. All right. Her friend's going to take her. >> Yeah. >> Okay. Ma'am, did you have a friend that's going to take you to the hospital? And I don't think it's going to give us much, but why don't we read her start crying over that a little bit? >> Just reading it to her like that. >> We got enough of us here. We can we can read her like that. Okay. >> The daughter claimed the police had been called thousands of times before, which was probably the only honest thing she said all morning. The mother was more focused on her missing black lab Pepsi than the hole in her head. It was a circus of misplaced priorities. I have to ask you some questions, but I'm going to read you this first. 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 me. Hang on. You got to get off the phone and listen to this. Okay. Do I need to start over? I'll start over. You have the right to remain silent. Anything that you say can and will be used to get a clear of law. You have the right to talk to a lawyer and the happy murderer present with you while you are being questioned. If you cannot afford to hire a lawyer, one will be appointed to represent you for any questioning if you wish. You can decide at any time to exercise these rights and not answer any questions or make any statements over here with me. Do you understand your rights as I explain to you >> to answer these questions now? >> Okay. Do you understand? >> Where's the dog? >> I need you to stay in here. Stay in here. We'll work on that, too. Do you understand what I've said to you? >> Yes or no? >> No. Wait. >> Do you understand your rights as I explain them to you? >> Okay. All right. Her friend is going to take her. >> Yes. Okay. Having these lights in mind. Are you going to answer my questions now? >> Yes. >> So, she's refusing. >> She's refusing. >> Appreciate her and take her. She says, "I've still yet to locate this." Can you Can you First of all, just real quick, >> I need to find my dog. >> What does your stuff What does your dog look like? >> She's a black lab. >> We need >> She's not here. >> We will look at you. You need to relax while we do our investigation. We will look for your dog. Listen though, >> number one thing, do you have any weapons in THE HOUSE, GUNNER? >> NO. >> WHY ARE YOU screaming at me? >> I WANT MY DOG, MAN. YOU UNDERSTAND? SHE'S going to get hurt. >> Where's the item you got hit with? Can you help us look for it, please? We've moved furniture. >> I've checked under the couch already. >> Hey, could you switch to boy one? Dispatch, >> yeah, I'm on it. >> Are you calling? >> Oh my god. Can you please help me find her? >> Is it in the couch? Can you check in the couch? Cuz you're saying she threw it at you here, right? while you were sitting on the couch. >> That's what color it was. >> She says it's a silver. It's a silver type ashtray. >> Oh my god. My could be getting hit by a car right now. >> Ma'am, I need you to just >> I don't know where it is. >> Okay, stop yelling, please. >> I don't know where it is. >> I'll look under here. Was this up against the couch originally >> before you got hit? >> I don't know. I was just sitting on the couch. >> Well, you lift it, right? Where is this really high? It's right up against the couch. >> I looked under it already, too. I looked in here. This is open. It's not in here. >> An officer read Kayla her Miranda rights, which she barely acknowledged while fumbling with her broken phone. She agreed to talk, but immediately began screaming about her dog again, as if the police were pet sitters instead of investigators. Her desperation for the dog was likely a convenient distraction from the battery investigation. >> Oh my god. Oh my god, my dog. Come on. >> Did she Mirandaize her yet? Cuz now I'm going to ask her. Just Just hang tight in here. I don't need you to come out. >> I'm not looking in the vehicle. I need the uh >> How did your mom get that head wound? >> I don't know. She just fell. >> She fell? >> Yes. >> Okay. >> What did she fall and hit her head on? >> I don't know. I wasn't there. >> You Okay. You You weren't home during that? No, I was here obviously. >> Okay. Well, you just said you weren't here, so I just want to make sure. >> No, I didn't see anything happen to her. She I chased her around the house and she just threw my phone on the ground and just broke it. >> Why were you chasing her around the house? >> Because she had my phone. I said, "Get my phone." >> She was like took it and then she started running around the house like I was going to chase her and I just walked around the coffee table and >> she just broke it. What? How? What did she break it on? >> She just threw it on the ground. >> It just like slid across the floor. >> And then I went to go get it. >> And then what? >> And then I looked at it and it was broke. >> I can't breathe. I felt so sick. >> She's saying that her mom fell and hit her head. >> And you have no idea where she fell? >> I don't know. >> How do you know she fell? >> Because she fell when she broke my phone. She just threw it and then she fell. I don't know. >> Did you see her break your phone? >> Um, yes. >> But you didn't see her fall. >> Yeah, she fell when she broke my phone. >> Okay. So, you did or you did not see her fall? >> I did see her fall, but I didn't see any blood. >> Okay. Where Where was she at when she fell? >> She just was in the living room. >> She's >> Did she fall into something that could have caused >> Wait, talk talk with your daughter. Now, are you >> just just hang out in here? Okay. >> Why are you looking at me like that? We're We're doing an investigation right now. We're trying to help. >> My dog work on that after we're done with our investigation. >> Pause down on her head. >> I don't know. >> Why are you looking at me like that? >> Do you know what she fell on? She know >> she's saying that mom fell. >> Okay. What did you hit your mom with? >> I didn't hit her. Okay. No. Listen to me. We know you hit your mom. We We know this like that. That's exactly what your mom said. She has injuries consistent statements. Okay. >> Hey, ma'am. Did you get in any kind of um like physical tussle over you and with your daughter and her phone? >> No, I don't even know what she's talking about. >> Okay. Well, I have to ask. >> Kayla's version of events reached a peak of absurdity. She claimed her mother just fell while breaking the phone. She admitted to seeing the fall, but somehow missed the blood gushing from Cavina's forehead. It was a miracle of selective vision. The officers weren't buying the gravity did it defense. >> Okay. Did you fall down at any point in time? >> No. >> Today during this argument? >> Hit me in the head with a metal ashtray. >> Okay. And what was this? >> What was this? In the house. In the house. Hey, call her in the house. Come on. COME HERE, PEPSI. COME ON. >> IN THE HOUSE. COME ON. COME ON. IN THE HOUSE. In the house. Come on. No. Hey. >> In the house. In the house. Come on. Buddy. In the house. Nope. Nope. Inside. Inside. >> Come on, Pepsi. >> She's scared cuz we're here. >> Or he's scared. >> Come on, Pepsi. >> Come here. >> What did you hit her with? And where did it go? >> I didn't hit her. >> Okay. So, you're just not going to like be honest right now? >> I'm not. >> I just want her to go to jail. I just want her out. >> Why would she go to jail? >> Because she >> she goes to jail because she broke your phone screen. >> Oh, we found your dog. >> Can I see your phone screen? >> Can I see your phone screen? >> Hello. >> Hey, the dog's fine. >> Ma'am, >> can I see your phone screen? puppy. It's okay. >> No, she's not scared. It's okay. >> She's fine. She's fine. >> She's fine. >> No. Miss, get in the house. >> You got to go back inside. You guys can't You guys >> I'll walk the dog. It said friendly. >> No. Do you have a leash? Is there a leash that I can put on the dog? >> Perfect. Thank you. >> I'll let her hang on to the dog for now. >> Okay. I'll just >> So, so what what caused what was the catalyst for this for this argument, fight, whatever we want to call it? >> I asked her for the rent money. >> You asked her for rent money. >> Mhm. >> Okay. [clears throat] And she just went from zero to 100 and hit you with this ashtray or was there kind of a buildup to this? >> Yes. >> Yes. To which question here? >> She's crazy. >> She's crazy. >> I don't know what's going on with her. >> Okay. Is she a drug user? >> She takes marijuana. Yeah, she has a marijuana card. She uses marijuana. >> I'm not I'm not worried about marijuana, especially if she has a card. >> I'm talking like the cocaine, crack, anything else? >> I have no idea. >> Okay. Are you a drug user? >> No. >> Okay. >> And you have no idea where this ashtray would have gone? >> I have no idea. >> Where was it originally? right here on the table. >> It's sitting here because that's where I smoke cigarettes. >> Is it right? >> Is it glass? >> No, it's metal. It has a metal >> I just asked cuz there's an astray right here when you walk in that room, but I'm not walking. >> It's not even really like considered an ashtray. It's like something that went on a grill, but I just brought it here from my other house. It's like a metal like a square metal thing. >> A square metal thing. >> I mean, we've literally looked >> It wouldn't even look like it would be an ashtray. >> Which bedroom in this house is yours? I'm the middle bedroom >> right there. >> Yeah. >> Can I see if it got tossed in there? >> Sure. >> All right. >> The missing dog was finally found, much to everyone's relief, except perhaps the officers who still had no weapon. The daughter's drug use was brought up, specifically her medical marijuana card, which she seemed to think was a get out of jail free pass. >> Yeah. So, this is your daughter's bedroom here? Okay, >> I'm not going in, but if I see anything >> Y >> from out here, >> I'll ask her. Go in there and look. >> Okay, cool. >> Nothing. Uh nothing in this room. >> It's really crazy that we can't find it. >> Can I check these three drawers? >> I don't care. >> All right. Here you [snorts] go. Can you put the leash on the dog? That way she can't run away. Perfect. There we go. Dog is secure. >> Hi, puffers. Hi. >> There you go. >> There's your mama. >> I don't understand why there's a side of a story. I feel unsafe. >> Well, there's two sides to the story. >> But she >> So, we're we're trying to get your side. >> No, I don't. By you telling me that nothing happened today. the right silence. >> You I read you your rights and you said that you understood them and you said that you wish to talk to us still. >> Well, I am. >> I'm sorry, guys. Not today. >> I'm sorry, guys. This isn't my fault. >> So, how did your mom sustain that? >> I don't know. [snorts] She's on drugs, guys. >> So, what are you saying? >> She's on drugs. >> Okay. So, what does that mean? That's what I'm saying. How did she sustain that injury? >> I don't know. >> I don't know. >> Have you been arrested before? >> Yes, I have. >> For what? >> For weed. >> Okay. That's not a big deal. >> I got a DUI and that's about it on my record. She actually has a battery on her record. >> Okay. Well, did she touch you today? >> Yes, she did, actually. >> Okay. >> Well, how do you think she got my phone? Well, that's why that's why that's why I asked you in front of me. >> This is my stuff. This is my apartment. I'm 19 years old. I have money to pay for this. I work I actually have work at 11. >> Does she live here? >> Yes, she does. This is her apartment and my apartment. We share it. We have We are both on the lease. This is our apartment. >> Okay. >> And she was just going crazy just yelling in my face just saying, "Give me the rent money." She wanted my money. And I'm like, "I'm not giving it to you. But I'm giving it to the office. >> Okay. This all happened after you. >> She was doing drugs. She was doing drugs. >> Can I finish? Can I finish for a second? For a second. Let me finish. >> You came out of your room this morning. Is that what happened? >> Yeah. To use the bathroom. She was playing loud music. She wanted to use my speaker. I said, "No, it's too early." >> Okay. And then what? >> I'm too I don't want to deal with this. >> Kayla suddenly claimed she felt unsafe the second police asked for her side. which was funny because accountability always seems to trigger fear. It's funny how people feel unsafe the moment they are asked to be honest. She then pivoted to mention her own record, including a DUI, as if building her resume. >> I'm moving out. I'm not pay I'm going to go to the office today and tell her I'm not paying rent and I'm moving out. >> But you're you're going off on other things. We're trying to figure out what happened here today. Why Why would >> I don't care. I don't want anything to do with this. I don't want to talk about it. >> Okay. >> I don't want anything. Do you want to give us your statement or not? >> No. Okay. >> We're giving you this opportunity. You don't want to give it to us. >> I'm scared. I'm >> Where are you going? >> I don't want to say anything. >> You need to hang out here. >> I'm not going anywhere. >> Okay. Well, then stop walking off. >> I'm freaking out. >> Hi. >> Hey, Siri. >> Call. >> No, you don't you don't need to call anybody right now. Don't call anybody. What's her name? >> Kayla. >> Do you know anything about like a metal thing that sat on the coffee table your mom used for an asterric? >> No. >> Does that not exist or you just don't know anything about it? >> I don't know. Answer questions. >> Do you mind if I take a look in your bedroom and see if that thing's in there? >> I don't care. Just go. Okay. >> Say if she chooses to revoke that consent, just let us know. Okay. Thanks. Ma'am, is it just plain metal or does it have like a design on it? >> No, it's just a square metal thing with like >> just like a gray like your metal color, black or gray, something like that. Like an oil drip pan. >> Yes. >> Okay. >> Like for a drill. >> Okay. I saw this thing that she's using as whatever >> for her joints. >> Yeah. Which she said which mom said she's got a card. So I'm like I don't care about card. >> I'm like I don't care if she's got a medicinal card. Like I'm not worried about that. Mom, >> I mean we we got per she gave us permission to look. So, and I'm not going to dig through everything, but >> I mean like >> because that's the only thing that's weird about this. >> What is she saying? How much mom got the wound? >> She's saying she fell down. Initially said she didn't know and then she said she fell down, but she didn't see any blood. She doesn't know how the injury happened, but she said that she fell down because mom took her phone. I mean, the blood dripped and smashed it on the ground. She said she filled out somewhere in the living room cuz she said she grabbed her phone. They got an argument. She said mom was doing a bunch of coke. Um, started asking her for rent money. So, that story is consistent. And then mom freaked out and grabbed her phone and then got up and started running somewhere. And she said she followed her to get her try to get her phone back. Mom smashed phone to the ground and fell down. But she's like, "I never saw any blood." Okay, so here's what happened again. >> Kayla refused to give a formal statement, claiming she was freaking out. The officers tried to find the square metal thing, which the mother now compared to an oil drip pan. The daughter's refusal to cooperate while simultaneously screaming for help was a masterclass in irony. >> That wooden table was pressed outward. Mom says that's usually the biggest table. Mom hit her head because those oil drip pans are very light and typically made out of aluminum. Yeah, that's the only thing is I'm actually starting to have a little pause about this. So am I. Because I think she smashed her head in thatole and there's drug paraphernalia with a bag right there. White crystal. A tiny bit of residue. >> Yeah. >> So I'm going to ask her. One second. >> What's that? >> Nothing in this house. >> No. So I'm going to get with Paige. Run that by her if you're cool with that. >> Okay. I mean that's we're gonna have to get >> right. Hello. Valerie. >> Hey Siri. >> Call Valerie. >> Ma'am, are you going to talk to us about what happened or not? We're We're not going to go away. I mean, it's not like we're just going to like disappear and like stop asking you questions. So, either you want to talk to us or you don't. >> No, I didn't do anything. I DIDN'T DO ANYTHING. >> TELL US WHAT HAPPENED. >> Please leave me alone. >> We can't leave you alone. We can't leave you alone. >> Why does nobody know why you're screaming? This is ridiculous. You're a grown adult. >> You're a grown adult. Stop screaming. I just want to leave. I I want to get for work and just go to work. >> You need to tell us what happened. >> You keep [laughter] telling me that you're going to say something and then you stop saying it. >> So, what is going on? >> I DON'T WANT THIS. I'M A NICE PERSON. >> Why are you yelling? It's not even >> because you guys just don't understand. >> Well, we're trying to understand that you're not >> I don't want [laughter] >> You don't want what? >> I don't want this. >> Okay. But do you understand that we can't just leave? That we have to investigate this and that it's important for you to tell your side of the story. >> Just did. Nothing happened. >> Well, obviously something happened. Well, I have to call I have to go buy a new phone. >> Okay. >> Are you going to tell us what happened? >> She's not going to >> Are you going to tell us what happened or not, Kayla? >> It's a yes or a no. You've been given several opportunities to tell us what happened. >> Your mother didn't get that injury on her own. >> I didn't do anything. >> Okay. The investigation took a turn when officers found white crystal residue in the house. This changed the vibe from a simple domestic spat to a potential drug bust. Kayla continued to scream that she didn't do anything. While the officers noted the mother's injuries were perfectly consistent with being struck. >> Telling you, >> I I'm not I'm not I'm not suggesting you did. >> Drugs. She's crazy. >> What happened today? Stop talking about other things. We're trying to figure out what happened today. >> Because I'm telling you. You're telling me what? What are you telling me? >> I'm telling you she's on drugs. She's crazy. >> Okay. What does that have to do with what happened today? >> [ __ ] up her record. >> What happened today? >> I don't I just >> Hey. [crying] Hey. >> Her name's Kayla. >> Hey, Kayla. Listen. Hey. So, we cannot find this alleged thing that your mom said. So, listen. Listen to me cuz I'm I'm starting to have some doubts about your mom's story. So, listen to me. What did she hit her head on when she fell? Did you see? >> Did you see what your mom hit her head on? >> Why does it matter? I just >> Because if you saw what she hit her head on. >> No, >> you don't see what >> Oh, no. >> Do you know how she said that big wooden thing was up against the couch? Typically, >> when we got there, it was pushed all the way. So, I'm thinking what happened cuz those drip trays from a grill are aluminum typically in white. I'm thinking she probably she's saying she fell she a bunch of coke and fell. She might have hit her head on that big wood table back and forth. >> No, I just think mom tried to get up and smoked her head on that freaking wood thing on the edge of that corner. The wood, >> right? But it starts where she was sitting >> goes to the bathroom comes outside. >> I'm just saying we can't find this alleged. >> Can you show me what that was? We've literally gave us consent to look at the rooms. We cannot find. >> Okay. So, I'm going to kind of I got to kind of ask you some questions. Okay. When you got up, did you hit your head on this? >> What? When you got up, did you hit your head on either that table or this? >> No, she hit me in the head with the metal as we can. >> We have looked everywhere and we cannot find it. >> And that's a really clean round hit just like on the edge of this table. And it's got a curve to it, too. >> No. So, listen. I just need to know cuz this this is serious. If you're legis if you if you hit your head, you hit your head. Okay? Like there's frustration here. I understand that completely. Rents stew. Like I get it. Times are tough. If you hit your head, can you please just let me know? Did you see your head? No. >> She hit me. >> I'm Cuz you're not in trouble if you if you because this is your chance. If you're lying about her hitting you, I need to know. >> No, there was an ashtray here. It's not here anymore. I don't know where it is. The officers started stitching the timeline together and quickly saw the daughter's fall story had more holes than Swiss cheese. The residue told its own little secret, too, hinting mom might have shared the same bad habits. Tensions sat thick, heavy enough to cut with a knife as the whole family fairy tale quietly collapsed in real time. >> If you don't mind us hanging out here for a second. Okay. >> Okay. >> Damn. I've been up all night. I ain't had enough sleep. >> Yeah. This has got to stop. This has got to stop. >> Boy, you're loaded down. >> So, what can you tell me anything about the history between these two? I've never been out here before. >> That's her. >> Yeah, she's crazy. I throw her out. She can't keep this can't keep going. >> Does Is mama a drug user that you know? >> No. >> Anything at all? >> Not that I know of. Nothing. >> Okay. How How well do you know her? >> I've been knowing her a couple months. >> Couple months. >> But she had drugs and stuff like that. >> Okay. >> She didn't throw it at me. She had it in her hand and she hit me in my head with it. Hey, call me. >> You can test her. JUST TAKE A DRUG TEST RIGHT NOW AND see if she's lying. >> Take a drug test. 5750. >> Hey Siri. >> Hey Siri. >> Call Valerie. >> Motor 17 radio 108 traffic. >> Oh my god. I want out of here. I'm never coming back here again. Ever. with me. All right. >> Hey, Kayla. Where did your >> She doesn't tell you, Chad. I'm sorry, but she doesn't tell you. >> It doesn't matter. That doesn't matter. Kayla, listen to me. And this is very important because we're obviously I'm sure you can figure out that what your mom's telling us is different than what you're telling us, right? >> So, >> I just I I'm going to move out. >> I get it. I understand you're upset, but we have to figure this out, okay? Because you're mom and daughter. So, we got to figure this out. >> Why? >> Because she's saying >> we we can't locate it. We tried to locate it. We We just >> And from where the blood starts, >> it looks like And from the cut on your head, it looks like table. >> Okay. >> I'm telling you, she hit me with a metal. >> She screaming bloody murder. She did nothing wrong. >> And all of a sudden, you became since we left originally, you became super aggressive with us over over the course of the investigation >> because I was worried about my dog. The mother, Kavina, prepared to leave for the hospital, still insisting her daughter was the aggressor. Kayla's behavior became increasingly eradicated. The officers were almost babysitting a 19-year-old in a state of total meltdown. It was becoming clear that someone was going to leave in handcuffs. >> So, if you were sitting here and you're saying she grabbed this ashtray, where did she grab the ashray from? Where is the >> right here? It's the ashtray we use every day. Hey, I don't know where it is right now. >> So, hold on. Hold on. So, you're sitting there, >> right in that corner right there? >> Sitting right here watching TV. >> She goes grabs the ashtray from there. >> Yes. >> And then with the What? What did she do? >> It has metal hinges on it because it was something. >> Where did she throw the ashtray at you from? Where did >> you throw it at me? She had it in her hand and she hit me in my head with it. >> That doesn't make any sense. >> What do you mean? >> That doesn't make any sense. >> When did at what point did you take her phone? What? >> Did you take her phone? >> I did not take her phone ever. I never got out. >> Okay, one of you is lying. Which one of you is lying? >> Take a drug test right now and see if she's lying. >> My god. >> Because your story. >> She's insane. >> You live here, right? With her? >> Yes, unfortunately. >> Okay. What are you on probation for? I had a DUI. >> Okay. Dispatch told me it was for drugs. >> It's a It was a DUI. >> Okay. Is it anything drug related? >> No. >> Okay. Whose bag is this on the ground? >> I have no idea. I've never seen that before in my life. >> You live here, right? >> Yeah. >> You've never seen that bag before in your life? >> No. >> Okay. Can you do me a favor and just look up real quick? Up there. Up toward the sky. >> Yeah, please. Thanks. Can you look up? >> No. Close your eyes, please. And look up. >> Close your eyes. Okay. Cuz you have white crystal all up in the top noses of your hair. Were you snorting cocaine before we got here? >> No. >> You literally have white substance up your nose. >> I don't even know what you're talking about. >> Her in the head. >> I did not. >> I understand that. And that's why we're trying to figure this out. Okay. because that's a serious accusation and we're trying to figure out whether it's true or not. Okay. So, listen. You said your mom fell. >> You can you be very specific as to where she fell. >> No, >> you cannot. >> No. My mom's not ruining my life again. >> Kayla, that's why I'm trying. >> No, no, no, no, no, no. >> I'm trying to help you at this point. Where did she fall? which I mean in all reality it doesn't matter. >> Uh sure if you don't mind. >> Where did she hit your head? >> She hit me with the ashtray. >> There's no ashtray in here, ma'am. There's no ashtray here. There's got to be it's got to be here somewhere. >> And the the statement that you're saying that she grabbed it and and >> Kayla hiding behind her right to stay silent was legal, sure, but it wrecked her innocent bystander act instantly. The daughter pulled a quick switch, too, going from talkative to mute, blaming fear instead of guilt. The cops could smell the lies piling up thicker than the excuses. >> It It doesn't even match up with your injury. >> Can I please go to the hospital and get stitches? >> You can go to the hospital. You EMS was here and you completely denied EMS. >> My friend is going to >> I understand that. But we need to wait now. >> Now you need to wait. >> Now you need to wait cuz we need to figure out what's going on here. >> You need to tell us what happened with that injury. >> She hit me with the ashtray. >> Okay. There's no ashtray here. >> Okay. It's got to be here somewhere. Can we help you, sir? >> Yeah, I'll come and take care of the home. She's been with me. >> Okay. Do you mind just waiting by the front of the Tahoe, please? Thank you. I appreciate it. >> She's been with me all night. She ain't on drugs. >> There's the problem right over there. >> Where do you want me to? >> Just right by the front of that taco, please. Thank you, sir. telling you that she hit me with an ashtray and it's here. >> I already looked under there. I didn't I didn't see anything. >> Right there. >> Where is it? >> I see it. >> It's behind the couch. >> Yes, under the couch. See if it's there. >> It makes us >> on that side or on this side? >> Right here. Okay, >> there's the ashtray she hit me with. >> All right, hang tight in here. Okay, >> listen up. >> Leave me alone. I just have work. >> I I get it. I get it. >> You guys don't care. >> FEEL IT. I >> I'm asking you. I'm trying to help you, okay? Cuz mom's story is not completely adding up. >> You're not giving us any details. [laughter] And if you're able to give me some more detail that makes your story that makes us believe your story >> to be in this. I don't want anything. I just want to leave. >> I hate to tell you whether you want it or not. We're in it. Okay. We're in it. And so this is what we have to do now. >> We have to investigate this and I'm trying to [laughter] get your side of the story. >> Okay. Show Matt that that'll >> Hey, I found it out of the couch. >> Okay. That's a pretty big ashtray. >> It is. >> All right, just hang tight for a minute. All right, >> stand up. >> Okay, Kayla, stand up. Stand up. >> What? >> Why? >> Because we found the >> I did not hit her. What are you doing? Come on. >> Battery. Okay. >> I did. No, I did not. Please. No. She She did. She put her hands on me. She broke my phone. She's on drugs. >> Kayla was finally detained. The shock on her face was almost comical considering she had spent the last hour acting as a so-called victim. She began the standard, "You're hurting me" routine that usually follows a handcuffs application. The next big thing was her transition from a yard to the backseat of a cop car. >> Please, somebody help me. Please promise. Please, please. I don't want >> that. I don't want to go. Please. >> Oh, this is happening. >> We don't want to do this either, but here we are. >> Come on, Kayla. We got to walk. >> No. Come on. [laughter] Mom, >> YOU GOT TO GET UP, HUH? >> YOU HAVE TO GET UP. >> MOM, >> WE'RE GOING TO GET UP and we're going to walk over there. >> MOM, >> it's it's >> Please. >> No. >> Stop. >> No. Don't Don't get on your knees. Stop that. Come on. We got to get you to walk over to the car. >> Kayla, this is not going to change. >> It's not just going to go. >> I did not do it. >> Sorry. I'm available for that call. If you don't need it, >> Mom. Your mom can't change this either. This is >> You're not She hit me. Okay. [laughter] >> She's a horrible person. Please. >> Did she hit you downward or upward or sideways? >> She just came forward at me and just the one of those sides just gashed my head open. >> Okay. >> This morning there's no drugs here. There's no nothing illegal to bring under the influence. Did you use cocaine today? >> No. No, >> we're just trying to decipher what parts of her statements are true or not. >> No. >> Okay. Because there is your nose is running and there's stuff up there. So that's why I asked. Okay. >> No. >> All right. >> I promise [laughter] I should not. >> All right, Kayla, you got to get up. We have to get up and we have to walk around. >> Please stop. It's up to you. I'm going to sit on your >> No, NO, YOU'RE FINE. >> MOM, >> ARE YOU JUST GONNA SIT HERE ON THE GROUND? >> MOM, PLEASE. >> KAYLA, you got to get up. >> Get up WITH AN ADULT. >> MOM, >> KAYLA, let's let's go. >> There we go. >> Go side. [laughter] Come over here. Stand right here. Face the car. >> Just take this. >> No. >> Okay. We'll give her the victim packet. >> That's fine. That'll work. >> We'll text you the Marcy's answers and everything. We'll see if this is evidence. >> Okay. >> So, >> is there anything on there? I mean, just like necessarily, but >> I thought cuz typical like drip pans are like either aluminum or something. This is like the full-blown thing. So, >> it's pretty heavy. >> Yeah, it is. >> And it's definitely got edges on it that would be >> Yeah, it does. >> Okay. >> She blamed her mother for everything, conveniently forgetting the blood on the floor. The officers remained remarkably calm, likely because they had seen this exact movie a hundred times before. It was a textbook example of play stupid games, win stupid prizes. >> You didn't answer originally. >> Yeah, I I heard him key back up. I knew this. >> Why isn't she getting arrested? >> Okay. [cough] >> Put your butt on the seat. >> Step on the footboard. >> Why isn't she getting arrested? >> Put your foot on the footboard. >> Please go. >> Put your foot on the footboard. >> Kayla, >> step up. No. Chat can't help you. Come on. Put your foot in the car. [laughter] >> I really don't want to. >> I understand that you don't want to. >> Put in the car. We're going to go. It's >> a lot easier if you do it yourself. >> Mom, >> um, do you want us to gather like statements from mom or >> Yeah, if you don't mind. >> Get like an actual written statement from her. >> Yeah. Uh, yeah. Yeah, if you can do a written statement, obviously all the Marcy's law stuff. Did you already do pictures? >> I took pictures of the whole scene just now of her face. >> Yeah, it's pretty heavy. >> Under the couch. >> Yeah, if you can take pictures of her face with her injury, please. >> Yep. Sure can. >> And then uh we'll we'll do the arrest. >> Okay. 103. >> All right. >> All right. And we'll put this in property and do all that other stuff. Take pictures. Just let us know. Statement. Do you want us to take picture of the statement and send it to you or do you want to just put it? >> Yeah, if you don't mind. Snap it. like just send me a picture of the of the statement that way we can read it too. >> Okay. >> Thanks. >> All right. Yeah. Thanks. >> Uh there should be some over there, but >> give them just a couple minutes. Okay. We they they still got to get a statement from her and we we got they got to give go over some information >> with her. >> Yeah, I know. I know. She she'll she'll be she'll be all right for a little while longer. She's she's she probably needs a couple stitches, but it's not, you know, it's not that bad. >> Yeah. >> Okay. This is This is common. >> This is common common occurrence. >> Okay. Does it commonly get physical or is it just usually just verbal? >> First time. >> Okay. >> Why would you say that? getting arrested. >> Okay. What's her social? >> I don't have her ID. >> She have an ID in there at all. >> I don't know. >> Kayla. Kayla. >> Do you know her last name? >> I don't know her last name now. I don't have to get a social, but >> Kayla, do you want to give me her social? >> I'll go talk to mom. >> Do you have mom's info? I never >> Okay. I didn't know if he gave it to you or not. >> All right, I'll I'll I'll grab it. >> There was a moment of silence that spoke volumes about their broken relationship. The officers did a final sweep of the area, still hoping to find that elusive metal tray. Evidence has a funny way of disappearing when people have something to hide from the law. >> Okay, we are not going to get an email from property on this. >> You were like, did you just throw it in there? I'm like, "Oh my god." >> Oh, >> did you just throw it in there? >> You did. >> I was like, "What am I thinking?" >> Oh my gosh. >> All right. So, she's going to get this whole packet here. >> Spark questions. >> We have to ask her that, too. >> What's that? >> Cuz it's a domestic. So, we have to ask her the spark question. I have a little card up there. >> I have it on my phone. I'll ask her. >> I'll get you the case number real quick so you can write down. >> [laughter] >> Kayla, [clears throat] [laughter] >> God, >> can you give me your social? >> Are you going to answer? >> Why did she get to sleep? Why? Why did she do this to me? >> Why? >> Hey, Mom. What's your What's your first name? >> Kavina. >> How do you spell it? >> K A V I. >> And what's your last name? Kavina. >> What's your birthday, ma'am? >> 71. And uh this is what's a good phone number for you. What's what's is it Kayla K A Y L A? >> What's K is Kayla's last name as well? >> What's her last name? >> I'm sorry. Say again. How do you say that for >> What's Kayla's birthday? >> And do you know her phone number off the top of your head? >> No. >> Okay. Okay. All right. Thank you. >> I'm just going to have you fill out a statement, please. >> Now, I just got to hit your drink, please. >> This is just going to be a statement. If you could just fill out all the stuff here, date of birth, phone number, your address, and then you can keep that kind when you're done. >> That's for all that. >> Yep. Everything that it ask for you at the top, please. You want me to sign it or something at the bottom or >> That's all. >> Um, okay. So, is that the end of your statement? Do you have anything else to put on there or is that it? >> That's it. >> Okay. So, just do me a favor. Just put a big line right there, please, for me. >> A line? >> Yep. Just a line >> like that. >> Like this across, please. >> Just indicating you were done. >> Yep. And then >> in the back of the cruiser, Kayla kept ranting about how life had wronged her. Fully convinced she was trapped in some grand conspiracy cooked up by her mom and the police. It's truly amazing how some people can torch every bridge themselves, then cry injustice while standing in the smoke. >> Okay. Are you wishing to prosecute today? >> No. I I don't know what to do. >> Okay. Well, domestic violence, we really don't have an option here. So, um and then I'm just going to have you put I'll do that myself. >> So, just she does not wish to prosecute it, though. >> Yeah. >> Okay. And then I have a few questions for you, miss. Okay. Do you wish to opt in for Marcy's law of Rights notification? So it's going to notify you when your daughter gets released and can withhold your information from public view. >> Okay. >> Okay. All right. Do you wish that any document that reveals your address or personal information be withheld from public view? >> Yes. >> Okay. And would you like your information to be released to Spark Safe Place uh against rape and crisis center for domestic violence victims? >> I don't care. >> Yes or no? >> No. >> Just sign right here with that pen, please. >> Do you want to be notified when she gets released? >> Yes. >> Thank you. >> Your daughter's name is uh did you say it was Kayla? K A Y L A. And what is her last name? >> And you're going to go to the hospital here with this gentleman? >> Yeah. >> Okay. Yeah. It looks like you're going to need some stitches. So, I just want you to understand it. We had conflicting statements. She's not answering any of our questions. Okay. >> And with the absence of the ashtray, we obviously we needed to confirm that that's exactly what happened. Okay. >> I understand. >> So, what's your phone number? Okay, that's all we have for you. >> Questions. >> Three more questions and then we're out of here. We have to ask these to all domestic violence victims. Okay, just yes or no questions. Three of them. >> Has she ever used a weapon against you or threatened you with a weapon? >> No. >> Has she ever threatened to kill you or your children? >> No. >> Do you think that she's capable of killing you? >> No. >> All right. Uh, ma'am, this is your victim's rights for sure. Okay. And then right here is also is for domestic violence. Okay. >> Um, and you said no to spark, correct? >> Yeah. >> Okay. All right, ma'am. Take care. >> I just don't want this on my record or anything. >> All right, I got her. >> I already can't find a job because of her. >> Mom's name if you want to run her. >> I think I ran the That's her, right? >> Cookie. Yeah, man. >> All right. >> All right. We good? >> So, they're [clears throat] Okay. So, they are going to >> get a statement. They're going to send you a picture of the statement or send us a picture of the statement. They're going to get the Marcy's law, all that information for you. They're doing photographs. So, all that's going to be taken care of, >> guys. >> So, we just have to transport him to the PCA. >> Okay. >> All right. >> All right. >> The officers wrapped up the paperwork, noting the drug residue and the physical evidence. The daughter's earlier consent to search the room had backfired spectacularly. It turns out when you invite the police to look around, they actually look around. Who could have possibly seen that coming? Certainly not our 19-year-old protagonist in the back seat. >> He said 10:15 on the radio, I heard of him. >> Yeah. >> Don't need to tell them again that we're >> No, you can just say we're transporting her to the jail. >> All right. call who? >> No, you'll be able to once we get once you get booked in though. >> We'll let you get phone numbers, whatever you need. Okay. And then once you get booked in, you'll be able to make phone calls. >> 6101 dispatch 51 to the jail. Starting mileage 0.0. Somebody gonna bail me out. >> Well, you'll have to work that out with the phone calls that you make. >> Huh? You'll have to find somebody. If if you can get somebody to bail you out making phone calls, then yeah, you will be able to be >> or well, you'll have to go to first appearance, actually. So, you you may not be able to bail out today. >> Can I report her for breaking my phone? Yeah, we can do that. Um, >> can you do it now? >> Well, yeah. I mean, she's not going to go to jail right now at this instant. >> I don't care. I don't want anybody to be in this situation as I am. >> Honestly, she deserves it way more than I do. All the things she's ever done to me. All the things. >> My daughter hit me on my head with an ash. That's her statement. He's on drugs, too. >> It's her official. >> And I just woke up. I just woke up and I got to get ready for work. I should have never talked to her. I should have never just argued with the person on drugs. Please report her breaking my phone. >> I already said yes. >> But how is she going to pay for a new phone? >> That's That's not how that works. You would have to sue her in civil court if you wanted her to pay for a phone. >> Yes, I am going to sue her. >> Well, you can do that. That's not us, though. We don't We don't handle that. >> If someone breaks your property, >> I mean, we can document it, but that I mean, we can document that you're stating that she broke your phone. >> I said we can document that you're telling us that she broke your phone. >> I was on the couch sitting down >> and I told her she wanted to >> because she was a little bit of coke and I said no she wanted the money. I was like well I have work at 11:30. We were arguing and we were being rude to each other. The scene concluded with the cruiser pulling away, leaving the mother to deal with her injuries. It was a stark reminder that rent money is a very dangerous topic in this household. The neighborhood was finally quiet again. >> I started chasing her and my phone on the ground and it broke and I felt so hurt. I was like, "Why would you do that? Why? Please not have this on my record. I did not hit her." >> Please, could I please have a lawyer or something? >> Yeah, you'll you'll get a lawyer. >> Just because you're getting arrested doesn't mean it's going on your record. >> Yes, it is. >> No, it doesn't. You have to be convicted for it to go on your record. This is just an arrest. Do you still have to go through the court system? Everything else >> back over? >> Yes, we're arresting you. But that an arrest is not a conviction. The only thing that the only thing that would show up is you were arrested for battery, but you have to be convicted for it to go onto your your record for to have a criminal record. >> Kayla's attempt to play the victim while her mother bled was a spectacular failure. She tried to use her dog, her phone, and her tears as shields, but the physical evidence was too loud to ignore. The metal ashtray might have vanished, but the hole in her mother's head and the residue in the house remained. She was officially charged with aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and domestic battery.
