Can you step out of the car for me? >> I would not. >> You don't want to step out of the car? >> I would not. >> Why not? >> Cuz you're asking me to. >> So, I'm giving you a lawful order to step out of the vehicle and you're refusing to. Is that what you're telling me? >> Absolutely. >> On March 25th, 2024, a quiet afternoon turned into sirens and flashing reds. Cops rolled up on a car only to find a woman slumped behind the wheel, out cold, engine still, and trouble already brewing. Police Department. It's the police. Wake up. Wake up. >> 1827. >> Police. Wake up. >> Two more. >> Check that door over there. ma'am. Wake up. Wake up. Hello. Hey, they said that uh she's parked here every day. This vehicle is parked here almost every day. So, I'm thinking she lives at one of these two places. I think it's maybe this one. For >> police department, wake up. Not exactly the morning greeting you want through your car window. Officers knock, call out, but she's out cold. Neighbors say the car is there every day like it's part of the property. >> Does she have any medical problems? >> Yeah. What's wrong? >> She's not waking up. So, >> I think she had a seizure. >> She could be having one. >> Nah. >> Excuse me. Hey baby. Britney, >> do you have keys to the car? >> I do not. >> Britney. >> Well, she's having a medical emergency, man. We probably need to get >> my You can clear me. >> She's breathing fine. >> Okay, I'll deal with rescue. >> Let me get my phone real quick. Let me get my dog. Come on. >> What normally happens when she has a seizure? >> Usually does. Get over there. She's either spilled something on herself or she's >> Well, I don't see. >> Yeah, she did. >> Wake up. Wake up. Wake up. Wake up. Wake up. There we go. Open the door, >> Britney. >> The first theory on the table. seizures. Except mom doesn't exactly sell it. She can't explain what normally happens during these so-called episodes. Her urgency to control the situation feels less like concern and more like damage control. As if the goal isn't saving her daughter, but shielding her from accountability, >> baby. Come on. >> Sure. She's not intoxicated. >> No. Hey, baby. >> Mom says she has history of seizures, but apparently she opened her eyes and flicked off the complaintant. So, I don't know that she's having a seizure tonight. >> Hey, baby. Hey, bring me my insurance card so I can have them open the door or bring me yours. >> Ma'am, TripleA is going to take like 3 hours to get here. There's no way that's going to be an option. We're going to need to break the window or something. >> Say if she's having a seizure or she has a medical history, we can >> bring your car right away. >> It's in my console in the car. >> Yeah, I think we have one in patrol, but >> I think mom's covering for it. >> Okay. Britney, >> who called you? >> Somebody calls concerned about her. >> Hey, Brit. It's mom. It's mom. >> Hey, baby. >> Open the door. >> Let me in, baby. >> Let me in, sweetie. >> Apparently, she almost crashed into somebody on the way here, so Britney, >> open the door, baby. Hey. Hey, baby. Come on. Mom suddenly morphs into a defense attorney, insisting Britney's fine, suggesting insurance like that will magically unlock the car. Officers see right through it. Mom's covering. They even say it outright. Witnesses say she nearly caused a collision earlier. That moves the situation firmly from possible medical event to public safety hazard. For the officers, hesitation isn't an option anymore. This woman isn't just unresponsive. She's a danger behind the wheel. >> Thank you, sweetie. She opened it. Forget it. Thanks. >> Hey, sweetie. >> Hey, turn it off to our community. You'll hear about it on the black. >> Please turn off the car. >> Do you have a seizure? Are you okay? >> Excuse me. >> Let's get inside. Let's go inside. Get your meds. >> Let's go inside. >> Okay. Let's go. Let's go. Where's your purse? >> [ __ ] you. >> Ma'am, you can back away. I can talk to her now. >> Let's go in the house, baby. >> What's going on tonight? >> What is >> I don't know. You tell me. >> You tell me. >> Everything okay? >> Is everything okay? >> I don't know what's going on tonight. >> You tell me. >> You seem like you're very intoxicated. Is it? >> Mhm. >> That's so cute for you. >> Okay. Can you step out of the car for me? >> I would not. >> You don't want to step out of the car? >> I would not. >> Why not? >> Cuz you're asking me to. >> So, I'm giving you a lawful order to step out of the vehicle and you're refusing to. Is that what you're telling me? >> Absolutely. >> When she finally wakes up, instead of gratitude, she digs in with pure defiance. Every command meets resistance. Every step escalates the standoff. This isn't confusion. It's calculated push back, [music] a refusal to cooperate. The mother, instead of deescalating, doubles down in her daughter's corner, turning the scene into cops versus family rather than a straightforward [music] DUI stop. >> Britney, let's just go in the house. Sweetie, you're home. Let's go. >> Where's your keys at? Where's your keys to the car? Are they in the car? >> Stop. Do not reach in my car. >> Stop. Do not touch me. >> Do not touch me. I'm going to >> ask you to step back, please. >> Do not touch me. Do not touch me. Do not touch me. Do not touch me. Do not touch me. Do not touch me. Do not touch. >> Ma'am, get out of the car. >> I'm asking you to get out of the car. I'm a police officer. >> Do not touch me. >> You need to get out of the vehicle. Okay. >> Do not touch me. >> So, he needs to touch. >> That's not an option, ma'am. I can touch you if you refuse to do what I ask you to do. >> No, that's not an option for you. Don't touch me. >> You need to get out of the car. >> Don't touch >> Come on. Come on. >> Do not touch. >> Either you get out of the car or I'm going to throw you on the ground. I don't >> No, you're not. I will so sue your >> man. I'm giving her a lawful order to get out of the vehicle. She's refused. That's resisting. >> Do not touch me. >> Get out of the car. No, I'm going to do >> You can go to jail for obstruction, too, man. >> Record from over here, please. >> Do not touch me. >> Record from back here. >> Get out of the car. >> Do not touch. >> Get out of the >> Let's go. Come on. >> Ma'am, >> do not touch me. >> Get out of the I'm asking you nicely to get out of the vehicle. Okay. >> Do not touch. Okay. >> Me. >> Do not touch me. >> Okay. Leave her alone. Okay. You're both going down. >> She can go to her house. >> She just put her hands on me, man. >> You put your hand put my hands on >> Yeah, cuz I'm asking her to get out of the car. >> Well, that's not how this works, ma'am. Sorry. >> All right. >> Okay, good. That's where you need to stay. >> She can go to jail tonight then. >> She's intoxicated. You know she is. That's why you came out here trying to get her inside. >> I am. Please. >> Let's go. >> You have anything on you, ma'am? >> Are you serious? You already got your hands on me. >> Yeah, I asked you out of the car multiple times. You refused to do so. >> You already put your hands on me. You already know. >> All right, let's go. You >> have a seat. We'll do it [snorts] your way. Go ahead. Kick me. Get more a felony charge. >> I'm trying to get in here. >> The longer it drags on, the clearer it becomes. The mother is running interference and the daughter is openly obstructing. What began as concern for her safety is now a standoff. Officers recognize the pattern immediately. Stall tactics, denial, and hostility. The arrest is inevitable, but it's messy, fueled by stubbornness rather than compliance. >> You me give all your property to your mom? >> Excuse me? >> You mean give all your property to your mother? >> Can I talk to my mom? >> Probably not. >> So, what was the point? >> You want your property to go to your mom? >> What property? >> Property in your vehicle? >> Yes, absolutely. >> Okay. >> You don't have the key, right? It was running when I got here, but I'll just leave it open tonight. Ask where it is. Just leave it open for now. I'll roll the window down. Give me just a second. There should be >> it's not in here. I'll keep looking. >> If not, it's somewhere in there. >> Okay, I'll find it. I'll see you in the morning. >> Don't worry about it. >> How's the key? How does the vehicle normally run? >> It's in the back pocket. Is that her purse? >> Yes, it is. Oh, >> okay. You understand why she's going to jail tonight? >> Because your guys are a bunch of dicks. >> Okay, hold on a second. I'm trying to explain it to you. You want to walk away? I can try to explain it to you. Okay, she almost crashed into a vehicle, complainant, called us. They had to swerve off the road to get to her. They find her here in a heavy stouper where she's not responding. So, they call us, they flick her off, tell her to go away, basically. So, we get here, try to wake her up. She's obviously impaired. I tried to get her out of the car to conduct DUI investigation and she refuses it. So that's obstruction in the state of Florida. >> Never. >> Okay. Obviously, she's got a problem. >> Correct. >> Um, no. >> Okay. She She lives here, doesn't she? >> She's never been intoxicated before. >> No. >> Okay. >> Not like that. >> Okay. Well, that's the reason if she'd got out of the car and she wouldn't had I had to forcefully take her out of the car, she'd have voluntarily got out of the car like I as gave her a lawful order to get out of the vehicle and she refused. I'm just so you're aware of what's going on. >> At the jail, Britney doesn't shift gears. She doubles down, refuses field sobriety tests, curses out cops, calls them lunatics. Officers carefully explain her rights, but she acts like the DUI process is optional homework. Refusal to comply, that's evidence, too. [snorts] >> All right, go and step out for me. >> Why would I? >> Cuz I'm asking you to. We're here. >> Does that mean something to me? You're You're under arrest right now. You want to step out for me? >> For what? >> Right now? Obstruction. Come on. >> Obstruction of what? >> Cuz I gave you a lawful order to get out of your vehicle and you refuse. Come on. >> And for what? >> Come on. We'll talk about it. Come out here. >> No. I told You're being unreasonable. >> Why am I getting Why? >> Why? I'll explain everything to you out here. Come on. >> No. Why? >> Ma'am, you're in my police car. >> Don't touch me. >> Ma'am, you're in my police car. >> Don't touch me. I understand that. I'm sorry. Do not touch me. >> Well, then step out of the vehicle. I won't have to. >> Please don't touch me like that. >> I'm holding you so you don't fall down, man. >> Please do not I'm not falling down. >> Do not talk to me. >> All right. Here's the thing. Here's the thing. All right. I'm conducting a DUI investigation. Okay. >> I don't understand that. Do not talk to me. >> I'm going to request. >> Okay. Nobody said that. I'm going to request you perform some field sobriety exercises. Are you willing to do that? >> Absolutely not. >> Okay. Do you understand they can be used against you? That can be used against you? >> Absolutely. Yes. >> But you're not going to use that against me at all. >> Hold on. You understand that the refusal to do them, it can be used against you? >> I do. >> You understand that? >> Yes, sir. >> Okay. >> Please do not touch me. Please get your hands off of me right now. >> Please get your hands off of me right now. >> You're being arrested. Get out of the car. >> Please get your hands off of me right now. >> Come on. I'll make sure to notate that you refuse to perform the filtered body exercises. Okay. >> You hold her just right here so I can take my zero off. >> By the time they reach the jail parking lot, the arrest is done. But the struggle isn't sitting in the back of the squad car. She refuses to step [music] out, cursing at officers and swatting off their attempts to guide her. Even here on the threshold of booking, the resistance doesn't let up. Please do. >> Hold on. Come on. Calm down. >> No, please do. Go for it. >> Go for what? Looks like you've urinated all over yourself, too. >> Yeah. You like that? >> No. >> Oh, God. >> You have >> weirdo. Weirdo. >> Just pointing out observations, ma'am. >> Oh, I know you are. >> All right. Following the incident, the woman was charged in Florida with driving under the influence and resisting an officer without violence. Under state law, DUI [music] carries mandatory penalties, including probation, fines, and completion of DUI education, while resisting without violence is a misdemeanor that covers refusing lawful commands without physical force. In court, she was sentenced [music] to 12 months of probation, ordered to attend DUI school, and required to pay fines and court costs. Florida handed down the penalties and the record speaks for itself. [music] Now, I want to hear from you. Fair outcome or just a slap on the wrist?
