They call it motherly instinct. But what happens when that instinct is mixed with alcohol, chaos, and arrogance? >> I don't give you permission to touch my son. >> I have a disability myself. >> 184 [Applause] back, please. >> You're under arrest now for resisting. >> Two tragedies, two mothers, one in a hotel, one on the street, but both share a heartbreaking truth. Kiana and Jaliso alike betrayed the sacred role they were meant to uphold. Some mothers do everything to protect their children. And then there's Kiana, who turned drunkenness, arrogance, and disorder into her personal recipe for motherhood. >> Can you call someone, please? My baby. >> On November 17th, 2022, a 911 call reported an child. Carl'sbad police were immediately dispatched to the scene and knocked on the door of a hotel room. The door opened. The mother stood there expressionless next to a boy with a bleeding head injury. >> Open the door. Police department. Get the key. >> Police department. Open the door. >> Where's the kid? >> What do you mean where's the kid? Where's my son? Wait. >> Where is he? >> Come here. Come here. >> Don't bang on the door and scare him. Did your head hurt? >> Okay. Okay. Eight. Seven. Conscious breathing. PE gash. Uh, it's not bleeding too bad. It's okay. It's okay. It's >> What's your name? >> Let me You can see everything. >> Okay. >> You want to hold that here while I wear? >> Right here. >> Yes, sir. Can you hold this for me? >> Right here. Just hold it >> right here. >> Yep. Just push it >> and then hold this back side >> right there. Where was he playing at? >> He was playing in the room and because they were too. >> Okay. >> Tell her, baby. Tell her what happened. She's your friend. She's so beautiful. Tell her what happened. Tell her and then >> Okay. That's good. That's good. >> Yeah. Keep it on there. Don't pick it up. Don't take it off. Tell her. >> You want to sit down? You want to sit on mom? Is that okay? You want to sit on mom's lap? Yeah. puppy. She's stuck in you. >> Can we um walk him to the front? You want to walk with me to the front for what? For the the medical guys. >> Can they come over here? That would be better. I mean, the turn chewing gum and everything, right? She's calm, right? Because you're I mean, I'm sorry. I don't know who you are, but she's chewing gum. >> He's police. He's police, too. >> Oh, I know. I know. He is my man with all respect, but you're chewing gum and everything like he's okay. He's going to be fine when he's lost blood or so I don't know. Yeah, I don't know what's going on. I don't know. I It's not nothing against you, man. But for me to for you to be chewing gum and saying he's okay and he is your child now, it would be something different. >> Yes. Just a little bit so they can get to him, please. Do you mind scooting over? >> No, ma'am. That's my son. I don't I do mind. That's my baby. >> Well, these guys are EMS. >> Yes, ma'am. and I am his mom. I don't think they mind. Do you guys mind me being here? >> No. >> Okay, thank you. >> The child mumbled. I fell. But it was the mother's strange demeanor and unsettling gaze that truly raised red flags. >> What happened? >> Baby, can I see you guys? >> Just jumping around and then I fell. >> You fell. Can I look? Okay. Okay. >> She's drunk. >> You doesn't understand me. So, >> you bite your lip. >> No. >> No. >> Can I do that? >> It's not going to hurt. >> Yeah. It's just water, buddy. He's just going to pat your head. Okay. >> You know, you're tough. Can you do it or do you not want to do it? >> It's It's just going to clean the blood off. It's just water. >> Do it. You want mommy to do Okay. It looks like >> No, it doesn't look like a little gash. Are you an expert? This is cuz you shouldn't. It doesn't look like a little gas. Who's more expert than him? >> He's a He's a medic. >> Can someone else come? >> He's a medic, ma'am. >> Do you want us to take him to the hospital? >> Yes, because Can you see? >> Yeah. Let's go ahead and make our way out to >> What we need to do is >> I'm sorry. Not against you, sir. Do you see them? >> No. Yes, ma'am. I of course I understand that you're his mother and you're you're worried about him. No. >> Can you show us in the in the room? Like what did you hit? >> No, not in the room. I don't think I mean do you guys want to come in the room? >> Yeah. Okay. We just want to see what he hit. >> For what? >> To see what he hit. >> To to see what he already told them. I didn't call you. They have been way better than you. I didn't call. >> I didn't call you. My son just hit his head. I have been getting my son some clothes. So, you don't need to tell me. Kiana began to resist, creating a tugofwar between responsibility and where the child's cries blended with her irrational scream. Do not touch my son without my permission. And just like that, she was convincingly escorted away. >> I can get my son's stuff. And if not, can you give me some other officer other than him, please? I do not want to do with him. And if I have to do him, then I'm not going to do it. So get me someone other than him. Okay. Thank you. >> Don't let her close up the work. No. Absolutely not. No, >> no, you're not closing that door. >> Listen to me. Understand something. I'm the supervisor tonight. You are extremely intoxicated. Your slips in that I bet you that bottle was drank tonight. >> Be careful to that. >> Okay, listen to me. >> Here's the deal. We're going to get your son to the hospital. End the story. We're taking your son to the hospital. >> Let me call someone because you're harassing me. >> Stop. Your son is going to the hospital. >> Scaring my son. >> Let's get your son to the hospital right now. >> Scaring my son. Get me his phone and then Get your son's clothes and get in the hospital. Now listen to me. Stop. You're intoxicated and if we have to, we will take control of your son and get him to the hospital in the store. Yes, ma'am. >> Touch my son. >> Get your son clothes so we can get you and your son to the hospital. >> You if you touch my son. >> Get your son to the hospital right now. >> If you touch my son, I will listen to you're about to listen. I don't want to detain you to make this happen. >> Your son to the hospital right now. >> Touch my son. >> Get your son to the hospital. I know that I'm >> Stop. You are making this worse. You are making this worse. >> Get your son some clothes and let's get into him to the hospital. >> Permission to touch my son. I don't need your permission. >> I don't care. >> I don't need your permission. >> I will give you permission to touch my son. >> Going to make this worse for yourself. You're going to make this worse. >> You are not to touch my son. >> Listen. Listen what you're doing. Your son is still bleeding. Your son is still bleeding. Let's get him to the hospital. >> Let's get him to the hospital. >> Let's go right now. Come on. >> Go now with him. But I don't give you permission. >> Get out of the room and get to the hospital now. >> Then why don't you do that? >> Take your son to the hospital. >> Then why don't you get an ambulance? >> They're here. >> Then why are you arguing with me? >> Let's go. >> Get the out of my way. >> Get out of the room. Get out of the room now. >> I'm scared. I'm scared and I am not comfortable. Stop. Get out of the room. Listen to get out of my way. I'm scared to get in the door. >> Get out of the room. I'm going to pull you out of that room if I have to. >> Pull me out of this room if you have to. Stop. >> Why would you do this? >> Please have my baby. Why are you my legs? Maxi, go with him to the hospital. Get that kid. >> No. What do you mean go with him to the hospital? That's my son. >> We are taking Justin. >> What do you mean? You're taking Max. That's my son. It's a Max. >> Really? Max, >> Max? What the? That's my baby. Max, >> Max. Max. >> Please call my family. Max, what is this? >> What? >> What is this? That's my baby. Max. Max. >> Dad. Okay, >> stop. >> Why are you hurting me? >> Why are you hurting me? >> Stop touching me. >> Stop walk with us to the car, please. >> That's my son. >> Unbelievable. Drunk and out of control. Yet, she still screamed, "I have rights." As if that were a license for blatant irresponsibility. >> I don't think that it's intentional. I just think that she was drunk, you know, not paying attention cuz she said that this kid was jumping and fell and hit an end table or something like that. >> So >> yeah, and I think that's probably the case. He probably was playing around and fell and hit something but even over the phone with dispatch like she was refusing to put pressure on it. She was wasn't talking and then we get here like she's super confrontational even cuz he he has a small gas but it needs attention. >> He's easier. Easier. Hold on. Hold on. Oh, wow. >> No. Dad, that's my baby. What the >> Stop. >> [ __ ] No. That's my baby. >> No, that's my baby. Pick me up. No, >> that's my baby. I'm going to sue you guys. No, let me. That's my son, man. I have I have rights to that [ __ ] I don't have [ __ ] on me. I have rights. I have rights. >> You do. I need you to take a deep breath because you have not made this easy. >> Yes, ma'am. I will be good. I will do everything. You >> listen to me right now because you are making this worse. >> Yes, ma'am. >> Take a deep breath right now. >> Yes, ma'am. >> You are going to sit in that car and then we'll tell you what's happening. We're trying to get your son to a hospital. >> No, ma'am. Mom is mommy. I have to be by law. I have to be by him if he's hurt, man. >> But what was more horrifying was what police saw inside. Filth, beer cans, and blood stains scattered everywhere. Yet outside the car, Kiana shamelessly screamed, "You kidnapped my son." As if she were the real victim of the system. >> But uh yeah, the room is, like I said, it's got trash on the floor, empty beer cans on the floor. Get your camera and start taking photos of this. Listen to me. What's your first name again? >> Kiana. >> Kiana. Officer. >> Yes, ma'am. I admit I drank some drinks right when I'm done with work. >> Everything right. >> Understand. Kiana, >> why is this happening? >> Let me talk. My turn. Okay. >> Yes, ma'am. Kiana, the reason why we are here, you called 911. >> I called you guys. >> You gave the room number. You said that your child was bleeding and we did not know what was going on. So that is why all the ma'am >> that is why all the officers >> realize that I can sue you guys for not for not letting me see my child ma'am. >> Yeah you have rights. You have rights. >> Okay. >> But we're trying to do our job. >> I just want to see him ma'am. My baby is literally seen before. Please just let me see him. Whatever you want to do. If I'm in trouble I will shut the up and I will do what I got to do. Mom but please let me just know that he's okay. Mommy. >> He is going to be fine. >> He is okay. >> Yes. Yes. He's going to >> Okay, Mom. Because little kids are little kids. >> I know they are. >> Yes. >> Okay. >> Okay. Good. Okay. >> Take a deep breath. >> No. Well, take a deep breath. If that was your only son, that's my only son. I >> I don't understand cuz I don't have kids. >> I wish you could, man, because >> like I said, there's a fifth a fireball. That's, you know, 98% drank. Open beer cans everywhere on the floor, blood on the floor from the kiddo. So >> 94. >> No. So she's she's here by herself. So she's new to New Mexico. She works here as a super aid as a cleaning lady. >> I'm going to read you your rights. >> Why am I arrested? >> I just have questions for you. And you're not >> Am I being arrested? >> No, but you're detained. You're not free to leave. So >> Okay. Why am I detained? >> Because how on video? >> Because how you were acting inside? Why? >> Because my son is bleeding from his side and you guys are more worried about getting me in handcuffs and taking care of him. >> Because we were trying >> Everything's on video. >> Yes, it is. We were trying to get you to the hospital with him, but you were being uncooperative. >> Oh, you were trying to get When did you say you were trying to get me to the hospital? >> When my supervisor was saying, "Hey, let's go to the hospital and you were arguing back and forth with him." >> Okay. Is that okay? You were trying to get me to the hospital. Okay. Okay. He went to the hospital. >> Why am I not there at the hospital that I am? >> Because you're acting. >> Do you have consent? No, you do not. Right. So then you take me to the hospital. Or if not, I want my lawyer here because you neither you or them have any consent to take my son to the hospital without me being scared. I know you're not the top, but bring the top here. >> Okay. Wherever >> he's inside. If you scoot back. >> No, I will not. If you want to force me and go me. >> That is up to you, ma'am. >> But I will not leave without him without knowing where my son is. >> Asa calls our medical. >> Okay. Yes, ma'am. Okay. That's what you say. Who am I to believe you? I don't even know you. So, I want to know where my son is. But it's your badge number, ma'am. >> I don't know your answer. >> You don't know. Okay. She's She doesn't know what I'm asking her when I just asked her. >> What am I going to do with my son? That is my son, right? That is He's 5 years old. He's 5 years old and she doesn't know. She doesn't know what I'm asking her. What's your name, man? >> Officer. >> Officer. >> Yep. >> Okay. Right. >> Cuz you're not throw your eye. Everything's on camera for real.

Look at me and tell me you're not. You're not going to give me my car to my son. You guys are kidnapping my son. She even threatened to sue the police for kidnapping her child. But when all her tactics failed, her tone flipped. Cursing through tears, she begged, "Let me see my baby." >> Yes, sir. I want to I want to make a report for kidnapping my son. >> We didn't kidnap your son. >> No. No. Well, I don't get no consent. I I give No, no. It's not I don't care. It's not about you. It's because everyone has rights just like you. I have rights, too. Just like my son is in the hospital without me. So I want to press charges on him and her you I really met you for kidnapping my son and that's what I want to do and I have rights. So give me a report. Give me a report.

You becameative. You want to take him to the hospital? >> That's to me. You can be sued by that. >> We're going to take your son to the hospital for you. We're going to get your son. >> Well, let me see my baby cuz I am not going to let me see my baby, son. You're sitting at the hospital, >> sir. >> Getting the help he needs. >> Sir, that's my baby. >> I understand that. And had you been less argumentative, not helpful, this wouldn't have happened. >> So, if I was less argumentative, then you would have let me see my son. >> No, we would have already been at the hospital, you start getting the help you need. The fact that you were stopping us from getting the help, >> how was the fact you guys took an hour to get here? >> Yes, you did. I had everything. >> Okay, you have everything. And we were here 5 minutes later. >> Let me see my baby. We're here 5 minutes later. Okay. If you waited an hour to call, that's your fault. So, we're going to call the central wide office intake for child Youth and Family Services Division. Okay. All right.

When the police got tired of her ramblings, I want to see a lawyer became meaningless and they didn't even bother to listen to her words. >> Get in the car. >> Yeah. >> Oh, yeah. Get me in the car. Get me in the car. Touch me and get me in the car. >> I'd really prefer not to. >> Okay. Well, do it. Do it so I can have more on video. Do it. I'm not hurting anyone. Do it. Get me in the car.

Youing [ __ ] >> Where is my baby? >> Hold on, Kiana. >> Well, where the is my baby? That is my kid. You kidnapped him from me. That is called by law. >> You're But you're yelling so I can't see. >> Because if they took your baby, what would you do? That's my baby. What would you do? That's my son.

I'm not going to put my hands in my hands. I'm dirty. You open your mouth and your tongue and don't move unless I tell you to. Let's go. Luckily, the police reached the child's grandfather, the only one clear-headed and reliable enough to take care of the child. During >> all the conversation, I mean, that's why I'm a little >> upset with her, too, because >> Right. >> I mean, you know, like I heard you guys and then she asked me what I do and I say, "Do you know what daughter? Just take her to the hospital." >> Right? >> I don't have a ride, Dad, or nothing. And I say, "You can ask for help." I already told her that we're trying to get her back to Texas. We're going to get some money. Right. >> We're going to try to buy the the tickets. And I told her, "What's the latest of you being over there? You don't you don't have nobody over there. You know, you went with your boyfriend. It didn't work out. You know, just >> and I'm a truck driver, man. I'm a truck driver and I'm out of out of being a pastor, not working. >> I understand. >> I I I really appreciate your help, man. I feel a little bit I feel my heart pounding of joy that you called him, but I was so worried because his dad or nothing, you know." >> No. So, so the child is at the hospital with another officer. Hey, Kiana. I just got off the phone with your dad. >> Okay. So, he's he's aware of what's going on. Hey, listen. Can you hear me? He's aware of what's going on. Okay. He's going to come and get the baby, but he lives. >> Yeah. >> I don't think she'll get anything. Hey. Hey, Kiana. Okay. I need you to I need you to relax. All right. >> Okay. Hold on. >> He's at the medical center. >> So, here here's what's going to happen. Are you ready? Are you ready to listen? I just got off the phone with your dad. Okay, Mario. Correct. But depending up on to you what you do right now. Okay. >> Am I being detained? >> No, you're not detained. You're under arrest. >> You are here in the jail. So, I'm just going to talk to you about what's going to happen with you. Do you want to know what happens to your kid or not? >> I want to know. >> Okay, then stop talking. Stop talking. >> Really? Don't talk to me later. >> Okay. >> So, you're nothing. If I want to know what happened to my kid. >> All right. >> We got it from here. >> Kiana was arrested and held at the Eddie County Detention Center in Carlsbad, New Mexico on charges of resisting. Under case law and guidelines from New Mexico criminal law, she could face up to one year in jail and a fine of up to $1,000. In New Mexico, bail is not fixed. It's determined by a judge based on the severity of each case. A child raised by a mother like that doesn't just suffer physically. They lose their childhood, their sense of safety, and their trust in the world. Over time, they learn to stay silent out of fear and believe that love always comes with chaos. One mother was drunk in a hotel, the other drunk behind the wheel. For some, it seems motherhood comes mixed with alcohol. >> So, how how much more have you been drinking? cuz I see you got that that container right there. >> Not much. >> On January 10th, 2024, Illinois police received multiple calls about a swerving vehicle nearly causing accidents. They quickly located the car at a gas station and approached the driver, a woman named Jalisa. But when the car door opened, the truth behind the wheel left them stunned. >> Hello, Officer Rogers Clinkfield Police Department. Driver license proof insurance. Any reason why I'm stopping you today? >> No. >> No. Got reports that you were all over the road. You almost hit another vehicle and I see you coming down the middle of 143rd. Is there any reason you were driving like that today? >> No, I was texting. >> You were what? >> I was texting. >> You were texting? >> Yeah. >> Had anything to drink today? >> No. >> Nothing at all? >> No. >> So, if you were to submit to a preliminary breath test, you'd blow zeros, right? >> Yeah. >> Where are we coming from? >> I'm coming from my mom's house. >> Coming from your mom's house? >> Yeah. >> Okay. All right. Hold on to that. All right. >> She smell like anything or no? I got like a whiff in the car of it. She seems like she's a little slow, too. >> She was coming down the middle of um 143rd when I saw her. She got called in as a reckless. Got called in, almost hit another vehicle. I got a little bit of it in the car. Not like anything much, but she also seems like she's a little like slow. So, I might run her through fields here. I don't know if there's a spot in the shell that we can walk in there and see, but I'll see if he wants this. He wants to do fields on her. If not, I'm going to do fields. I'll probably bring her inside. And she's got a kid in the back. So I might >> She got a kid in the back. That's all. >> So I might have to have you stay with the kid and just stay with my squad out here. Can you go ask her for her insurance again? Let me know if you smell anything cuz she was still looking for it. >> Do you mind if we see her insurance again? >> I think that >> Yeah, he I don't know. >> Just got to check and see. He gave it to you or you gave it to I >> Does he still have it? >> What is this? >> This is something else. It might be this too. I have a choice on it. >> Okay. Yeah. We just wanted to check and see. All righty, sounds good. Just sit tight for us, okay? >> Things took a darker turn. She had been drinking and driving with a six-year-old child in the car, and yet she still tried to excuse herself. I have a learning disability and called her mother for help. >> Unless you want to do fields, I'm going to try and bring her in shell and do it. I just thought I'd offer it to you. It's been a while for me. I'll run her inside in the show. Um, I'm probably going to have him stay here with the kids. You want this? You need me to help you or you want me to do it? >> I can do it. Connor, do you want to do this? This is your call. >> Go ahead. I think he's getting off. >> Yeah, I'm getting you guys. I could I could smell some. >> So, >> I'll have you do it then and then I will help you if you're comfortable with it. I have improper lane so I can do that. >> Hello, Jalissa. Jalissa. >> Yeah. >> All right, man. I'm going to have you step out real quick. Okay. Talk out here. How old is your trial today? >> Six. >> Six. Okay. >> Yes. I have a step down. >> All right. Gotcha. Just have you step out real quick. All right. So, how how much more have you been drinking? Cuz I see you got that that container right there. Not much. >> All right. So, you >> you had that. Just hang up the phone right now. Okay. >> Yeah, but um I have a disability, so I need my mom to be on the phone with me. >> Okay. So, how much have we had to drink? >> Not much. >> Okay. We had that though. What else? Let's step over. Can you hand the phone, please? >> I need my phone. I have a disability. >> You have a disability? >> What uh what disability you have? >> I have a learning disability. >> Gotcha. What learning disability do you have? >> All I know is learning disability. All right, Julisa. So, I'm going to have you do Can I have these documents you have in your hand, please? >> Mom, can you get up? >> We're going to walk inside the shop. Okay. I want you to stay warm. >> Okay.

Choosing to change means giving both yourself and your child a chance at a better life. And those are two heartbreaking stories about the thin line between love and irresponsibility. A drunk Kiana in a hotel room brazenly demanding her motherly rights. A drunk Jalisa behind the wheel putting her child inure. Both screamed, "I have rights." Yet forgot the most important right a child has the right to be safe. These stories show how alcohol can turn a mother into a stranger and how motherhood at times becomes just an abstract idea.
