Reason why I ask >> Around 10:48 p.m. on November 2nd, 2024, Sergeant Spencer with the Santa Rosa County Sheriff's Office observed a red 2016 Nissan being driven erratically. He initiated a traffic stop and the driver pulled over in the vicinity of Byron Street and Park Avenue.

Deputy Henry Hancock arrived on scene shortly afterwards and initiated his DUI investigation. Based on the officer's suspicion of impairment, Destiny was asked to perform field sobriety exercises. Around this time, she mentioned that she worked as a correctional officer. >> Ask her. >> I don't care about that right now. I've already heard that. Are you refusing? >> I'm crying.
