Officers respond to a series of incidents involving the same woman over an 8-day period. The calls begin with strange roadside behavior, a car filled with nitrous oxide canisters, and a driver who cannot give a clear explanation for anything she is doing. The situation continues with two crashes, multiple arrests, and several warrants issued by judges who believe she is a danger to the public. What starts as a simple stop unfolds into one of the most chaotic DUI cases police have dealt with recently. This is the full story. >> Okay. >> Okay. >> You're not free to leave right now. >> I don't know where to put this. >> Um you can put it in the where anywhere inside there inside the >> Why is he doing that?

Her pupils are extremely constricted. Her answers are delayed. and she struggles to follow basic instructions. She insists that her broken foot explains her behavior, but the inconsistencies raise more questions than they answer. The officers shift from checking her welfare to conducting a full DUI investigation. This first contact sets the foundation for everything that follows. >> Would you be willing to do some voluntary fields? >> Yeah, I will. >> Want your dude to do them? >> I hope. >> We don't practice him at all. Otherwise, we can do them. He has a friend. >> Okay. >> Two out of six on HGM, but it's actually hard to see.

And I'd just like to remind you that we all have cameras on. Okay. >> Yeah. Okay. >> Yeah. >> Okay. >> Only a few days later, the same officers respond to a residential crash involving her vehicle. Neighbors rush outside after hearing a loud impact and find multiple cars damaged. She claims her foot slipped off the brake because of her medical boot, but her demeanor raises the same concerns as before. The officers recognize her immediately and note the similarities with the earlier stop. What she calls an accident appears to be part of a growing and dangerous trend. >> Okay. or anything. She's talking in there. >> Hey, man. >> Hey, miss. >> You all right? Yeah. >> All right. You want to step out? >> Okay. You're stuck. >> Yeah. >> Okay. Well, the fire department here. >> She's okay.

She struggles to follow instructions and appears unaware of her surroundings. For her safety and the safety of others, officers decide she cannot remain behind the wheel and place her under arrest. This incident becomes another DUI in the same week and adds to the pattern that will later lead to multiple warrants. back over here. >> Yes, I'm dead serious. >> You want to start a >> Y? >> Would you like your phone out of your car? >> Yes. >> Okay.

There we go. >> Officers are called to a neighborhood after residents hear a sudden crash outside their home. They find that she has struck the daughter's parked car and pushed it into another family member's vehicle. She explains that her foot slipped and that she is still sore from a recent hospital visit.

So, we'll get all that for you. >> Officers returned to her home with several warrants issued after her repeated DUI incidents. They find her sitting in her car inside the garage, refusing to come out and insisting she cannot walk. The officers explain that the warrants are active and that she must cooperate, but she continues to delay and question the situation. They warn her that the arrest will proceed whether she moves or not. >> No, you can't. You were just You were just walking out of the hospital. >> No, I wasn't. >> Okay. >> I was not walking out of the hospital. >> What's that? >> Her out. >> Okay. >> Well, then do you want to help her out or cuz you are under arrest.

You guys, you don't understand that. That's why I was going to go back to the hospital. >> Okay. Well, you you just left. So, >> you're going to be booked into Pierce County Jail. Okay. >> So, sir, since you you probably didn't hear this, she has multiple warrants for her arrest. She is going to go to jail now. >> So, I'm not >> Oh, you don't have a choice. >> Everything is audio video recorded. Also, >> this isn't a matter of like we're going to discuss it. It's you have a choice. >> I'm going to sign by I enter. >> No, that's not it. >> You're going to jail. >> And I'm pretty sure that's a first party warrant. >> What are the warrants for? >> For the DUI offenses that she's been doing >> multiple. >> Okay. >> I know you're jail because I've contacted you on them, right? >> Yeah. >> So, at this point, it's a simple to get on it. >> It doesn't matter. The courts have literally issued warrants for your arrest because you continue to do this. >> No, I don't. >> You have You've actually did three DUI. You've been arrested for DUI three times in 8 days after the fact. You were involved in a collision in Tacoma where your vehicle was also totaled. >> Okay. >> So now you have warrants for those arrests. This is not up for discussion. >> Judges have signed it. >> I can't move you guys. >> Okay. You've got the option to wheel her out. If not, I'm going to confirm the warrant and essentially make sure that it's a first party residence. If you guys refuse to come out, we will use force to go through your house and get her. Right now, it's just a simple misdemeanor, right? This is nothing personal. We have a job to do. We could escalate it further though based on what she decides to do. >> I'm just confused by their warrants when she already went to jail and I >> because she was booked into jail, right? And she was bailed out. She was never arraigned. >> Okay. So now this is a judge signing off on it saying she needs to go back because they believe she's a danger to the community because she's been arrested several times. >> I can't even move for >> each time I've contacted you. It's been the same. >> I have seven blood clots. >> It's unfortunate. But you have a warrant for your arrest. >> And you just left the hospital against medical advice. So >> if the medical situation was that serious, you wouldn't have just left. >> So is this a situation where I still am able to bail her out? >> No. >> Well, after she's probably. >> So essentially, it's two warrants. Uh, I'd have to look at the bill and I'd be happy to do that for you after this, but right now we've got something that we've got to do, right? She is under arrest. >> Well, I don't know how they're going to get >> I'm still confused why like >> you can be confused all you want, but I'm telling you lawfully all on camera, right, that she is under arrest and she has a warrant. If she continues to refuse to come out or we make this any more difficult, additional charges could be filed. >> I'm not making it difficult. I'm just trying to understand it. Okay. Oh, I I don't know what else to tell you, man. >> I feel like you're being a total jerk. >> Okay, >> babe. I'm not coming out. >> No, you are. >> No, I'm not. >> You are. >> I I can't. >> Yes, you can. >> No, I can't. >> Every time I've contacted you, you have been in that boot. Okay. >> No, I just got the boot. >> He's literally there with his scooter to help you get out of the car. >> Yeah, I can't move. >> County 470. Can somebody confirm if that warrant is first party? >> How can he get me out? >> Received. Okay. She's in the garage. Please come out. So, we're going to go in. >> No, just give me a second. I can't. >> Do you have a wheelchair? Do you have some other transport that you like? >> I [laughter] I can't even walk on this. >> Stop. You're going to get on that scooter and you're going to get out or I'm going to pull you out of the car. This is your last warning. >> One, two. Affirm. >> Got to go. >> I'll wait. Okay. >> Do you want to pull up here real quick? [laughter] >> I'll hold off until she's on the scooter. >> Yeah. I'm not going to be able to get her down the hill if you're able. >> Yeah, we can. We will definitely do that. >> Babe, get your knee on. Come on. There you go. >> Okay. >> All right. >> And then we'll put her in cuffs and then she can sit. Sit back. >> Can I sit? And you want to sit and cuff through. >> Can you just do it that way? >> That's not a thing. >> Yeah. Bring your hand back here. >> My partner's going to hold you. Make sure you don't fall. >> Some people need real help. And when they're enabled or ignored, the danger spreads until everyone around them is at risk. This incident shows how quickly that can happen. Through every stop, every crash, and every refusal, the officers stayed calm and patient, keeping control when she couldn't. Their restraint likely prevented something far worse. If you want more real cases that reveal what officers face on the ground, make sure to follow and stay with us for the next incident.
