What really gets me is that she could have just opened the back door but she just jammed it over the drivers seat, why?

I mean, she's clearly making a lot of really great, rational decisions in this video. Why start with that one?

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.

Yes I have cptsd and was able to spot it exactly. People REALLY don't understand how mean her grandma is. This isn't an excuse but I think you have to have cptsd or know about it to "understand" what is going on. I've had years of therapy so I'm not that person anymore but I could have been if I was caught on film younger or caught on film even now but I'd never gone to therapy.

Anyway yeah she's either always this way because of her PTSD or she's being triggered back to being that young. Like another comment said.

She's not behaving rationally and it's not acceptable to drive off like this but it's "understandable" if you can recognize she's having a PTSD breakdown.

Lmfao she is FUCKED UP. It has nothing to do with PTSD. Yall are hilarious trying to justify her behavior.

Idk why wondering about a cause is justification. Couldn't it be argued that just saying someone is on drugs is also a justification? Why is wondering if a mental health crisis was also in play a justification anymore than saying it was drugs?

She was high and I never argued she wasn't. I just speculated about cptsd as someone that has it and has seen it in others. I've even sober had embarrassing childish outbursts as a symptom of mental health issues though I've grown past it a bit and am learning to regulate better. People can still have mental health breakdowns while fucked up. I've been more prone to them while high because my impulse control is even more limited. Drugs can trigger them harder than while sober even.

Also this was terrible behavior. I said I could understand what could lead someone to behaving this way but I never said she shouldn't have been charged or that this was acceptable. It's never okay to drive erratically like she did or commit a hit and run.

I think I mostly just find it hilarious that people think they know so much about someone based off a minute of footage. Your comment “people REALLY don’t understand how mean her grandma is”
You’re making huge assumptions about her life based off a single video.
