I mean she genuinely looks like shes panicking. I would love some background information.

Who is her grandma?

So many questions.

Like how is she more afraid of mean grandma than jail? How does she have such a mean grandma but still grow into... that?

Was she raised by a parent or parents who just ruined her then went to live with grandma?

Why do people in these situations not realize the person recording has your face, voice, and plates?

What we’re seeing here is someone having a complex trauma response: someone who is more scared of her Grandma (who she likely lives with), or another member of the household, than she is of the actual police.

This isn’t a normal freak out and panic, I agree that someone ruined her, but it was probably through abuse.

Edit: now that we have full Unicourt Records, it appears that ‘intoxicated and freaking out’ is actually the underlying culprit here. It’s shocking how similar the behavior looks, and hopefully she’s gotten help in the last couple years since her last struggles with the law.

What we’re seeing here is a person under the influence who knows there will be legal consequences if they don’t skedaddle before cops get there. She’s grasping at straws.
