After 6 months on a court-ordered alcohol she goes on a drunk rampage just hours after it's removed, breaking into her husband's home, taking the kids, chugging wine while driving, and terrifying them as they beg her to stop. After she finally returns them, officers ask the father to set up a meetup at a nearby elementary school so police can confront her. >> We're investigating something, okay? >> Yes.

They heard Daddy talking to me, and they got scared and said, where can I meet you? >> Like I said, we can we talk to you, they're going to talk to him. We're just trying to, you know, figure things out from that point forward, okay? >> Yeah, you're going to figure it out because he's the first one that called. >> I mean, just because he's the first one that called doesn't mean that's >> You're going to arrest me because I'm over here, I'm not over there.

I haven't even talked to the guy. I'm here talking to you. I didn't go over there. I don't know what he has to say. All I'm going is by the the nature of the call, okay? I know. >> That's why you can feel sorry for us, my [ __ ] kids. >> I'm sure. Do you have Do you guys have certain custody times? How's that work? >> No. >> Is it just like an agreement? >> the lawyer said? Because he's a felon, I should get 50/50 and all of it. >> Okay. >> Because he's a felon.

That sucks. >> And money that I don't [ __ ] have. >> Have you tried to get in contact like a Have you Do you have a social worker's information? >> No. >> No. Okay. >> What's social What do you mean? >> We have a social worker at the police department, so they can help you like with like housing situations because there's you know, obviously it's a domestic >> Okay, but is it for women and men or is it just for women and and children? >> It's primarily for women and children. I don't know if it's for women and men, but uh >> No, that's all I care about. >> Yeah. I can give you their information. I think Yeah, cuz they have They You can Yeah, yeah, separate separate from this just for you know, your Let me see if I have one of their cards. If not, I'll grab you one of them. >> Do you know what happened last time? >> No, I don't. >> Okay, I drank. And he was blowing proportion and light and everything that I and the cops believed him because he he called first. >> Okay. >> Instead of me. >> What happened then? What was it? >> He took my phone. >> Okay. >> So he could call first. >> Yeah. What was his like the allegations or the charges? >> Oh, she's drinking and oh, and and attacking my mom and yelling at me. That guy is like 200 something pounds. I'm weak as hell. He knows I can't take him. >> Yeah. Was it like something What were the charges? >> Okay, so his mom came in and we were arguing. I know you're talking to me to try to like calm me down from the situation that >> I'm just trying to figure >> going on. But the situation that happened was his mom was arguing with He told me, "Go in there and argue for me. Go fight for me. Go go argue for me." >> Okay. >> I go in there, right? She starts attacking me. >> His mom? >> His mom. >> Yeah, okay. And uh >> And and I have scratches on my arm because I'm protecting myself like this. This is what we're in court for. Scratches on my arms. You know what? They're not going to show up again just like they called the cops on me last time and they didn't show up. >> Yeah. Is that Is that what the ankle bracelet was for? That that situation? Okay. How long ago that happened? >> 7 months ago. >> 7 months ago, okay. So that's kind of when that happened. >> long the the court's been going on. >> Yeah. >> So you're saying you're not at the house, but that's a lie because you're on camera at the house at 11:00. So >> What are you talking about? >> the ring camera at the house at 11:00. So don't lie. You were there. So you have a giant case history which there's a lot to go in there. So, whether or not you violated a pre-trial release, the thing is though, you saying that you're not there is not true because you're on camera and the officers witnessed it. So, don't lie because lying is not going to get you anywhere. It just makes just proves guilt, right? So, don't do that. I understand you got your SCRAM off today and quite frankly, it's a very complex previous domestic violence history. I went back in the case jacket. It's very long. Started in December. It's last updated today and there's a continuation it sounds like for July or something like that. So, that's still going on. My question is whether you were told that this is still like you're not allowed to have contact with the children or be at the property more probably more properly to be on that property, whether you were told that. >> I wasn't told anything. >> Okay, and that's fair. So, like I don't know >> But you just you just said that you know you're not allowed to go to the property. >> No, I said I don't know up until today whether if I'm supposed to go there or not because he didn't tell me into court. We said just your bracelet's coming off and that's it. >> So, if you don't know the obviously you should probably get clarification on that, right? Because >> By whom? >> Oh, I don't know. Ask the judge. Ask the >> you being rude? >> I'm not being rude. >> Oh, by the judge? >> you a straight answer to your question because if you have any you know, if you're unsure about what to do and there's the potential of being arrested, then you simply ask for clarification. It's that simple. Hey defense attorney or hey judge, am I allowed to go to the house? It's very simple. >> Well, I'm asking right now. Can you find it out since we're here? >> issue is this, right? So, unless it's clearly stipulated on there, which the last >> Can I just leave right now? >> you're being detained. The last time that we saw pre-trial conditions was back in December, probably early January where you were not supposed to go over there. Now, it said until further order of court from what I read. >> Yes. >> Okay. The question is >> Yes. >> whether that's still in effect or whether that's been changed. And I don't see anything that suggests that it's changed. However, there is a significant period of time between that and now with the continuation being in July. >> Correct. >> Okay. >> Yes. >> So, because of all that, the best way to confirm is probably with the State's Attorney's Office. They're obviously It's obviously pretty late. >> Yes, it is pretty late right now to contact them. >> Right. You saying that you were not there is not true, which is a problem in and of itself because >> That doesn't mind right now what is my conditions to be there. >> No, you you >> Do I have the conditions to be there, yes or no? >> you lying about being there is its own problem. >> It hasn't That >> 100% that >> Your job right now is to find out if >> me what my job is. >> No, your job is to find out if I'm supposed to be there or not. >> No, my job >> Because my daughters were there saying, "I want you to come home because Daddy is scaring me." >> Sure. And your daughters can't allow you to go to that property if there's a court order that suggests otherwise. >> But I haven't seen that. >> We just went through this. So, further order of court means further order of court, okay? And if you don't have clarification, you should get clarification. Obviously, Trick seems to think that you shouldn't be there. Obviously, you, according to him, says that you ran from the scene, which would suggest that you shouldn't be there either. Regardless of that, I already know that you were there, which again tells us that you're lying to us, which is a problem number one because our job is to investigate criminal activity. >> to drop off my children? >> You yourself said >> I said yes. >> there. You yourself said Listen, listen. Morgan dropped them off. >> You guys are Hold on a second. You did. >> No, hold on a second. Your jobs are right now is to find if I should go to jail or not and not argue with me. >> right. >> Not argue with me. >> right. We're doing that. Don't worry. >> Okay, thank you. >> That's why you're being detained. >> Okay. >> Ultimately, you were at the house and you dropped off the children and you shouldn't have done either of those things and you're You're camera doing it. >> I'm not saying that. >> No, you don't need to say it. You're on camera. >> Okay. >> You lying about you dropping off the children is its own problem. You're not supposed to do that and you lying is not a not a good start. You just got your scram off. So, we are finishing up our investigation and we will let you know >> if I'm going to jail or not. >> That is correct. You know what's [ __ ] Lying to the police is [ __ ] >> Lying to the police. >> That I take care of those girls. >> Sure. >> And he sleeps until 3:00 or 4:00 in the afternoon. Has no job. Asks his mommy for >> think I don't know who >> No, you don't. >> You think I haven't been here for >> No, you don't. >> For 12 years I've been out of your house. I know who you guys are. >> No, you don't know me. >> I've I've met you plenty >> know me. You don't know him. >> you plenty of times. I understand some of the situational dynamic that's happening here. >> you don't. >> I do. However, you guys are still together or at least still >> I sleep on the couch. He sleeps in the [ __ ] bed. >> such problems together, right? >> Yes, we do. >> have and you have domestic violence current trial going on, case going on, then maybe you shouldn't stay with him. >> Were you staying with Morgan previously? So, is that not an option for you anymore or what's the deal with that? >> right now if I was. >> Okay. >> So, maybe that would probably >> I could go right now. I could go right now. >> But that's what I'm saying. So, don't you think maybe that's a better idea if you're currently in court trying to work through this stuff? Cuz obviously you guys still aren't getting along. >> girls are scared of being there with him. >> And there's nothing saying that you can't see them. >> But >> you shouldn't be picking them up or dropping them off if you know that you guys are having issues, right? Isn't that a better idea if you have a friend that's willing to help you out? So, why would you drop them off if you know that you have a friend that's willing to help? >> I didn't say that they did. Am I being arrested? >> Can you can you come this way? We're We're going to put you through a couple of things. Um just to make sure that you're you're to drive, okay? Cuz what I've been told Yeah, so what I've been told is that um you were out for a little while a couple blocks away and then you drove there, you had your kids with, you came back with your kids and stuff like that.
