Okay. >> Which one? Come here. Don't do anything. You're not about that life. You're not about that life. >> What began as a routine family pizza run for correctional officer Kila Panero spiraled into a violent clash when her husband drew a knife on another couple over a perceived line cutting dispute. A person is guilty of aggravated assault if he attempts to cause serious bodily injury to another or causes such injury purposely or knowingly or under circumstances manifesting extreme indifference to the value of human life recklessly causes such injury. This New Jersey statute under which Kila would later be charged underscores how quickly a petty argument escalated into felony territory as her family punched and kicked the victims, leaving the wife unconscious and hospitalized. Subsequently, officers rushed to the scene to stop the fight. Get out of my way. Excuse me. Sorry. Thank you. Relax. You like to drive out of here. You okay? green. here. You want to charge against them or no? >> Nobody got hit. Nobody got hit. At this point, you got hit. You guys wanted to cross the >> No. No. They want to do they might want to do charges. Okay.

That's all. >> I don't I was check. We're checking. All right. >> That's bad guy. Of course it's going to attack the dude that's going to attack. >> I swear about doing a favor and stand over here. I'm going off to myself. I get it. I get it. I get what you're doing here. I get it. Here you go. My ID is right here. Here's here's my conventional. >> Okay. >> Bystanders captured the brawl on phones and security cams. >> With Kila's 25-year-old daughter, Rya joining the freight before fleeing with her boyfriend, abandoning her parents to face the fallout alone. As tensions boiled over outside the restaurant, Kela's husband brandished a small black knife, forcing officers to intervene while the family hurled threats and curses at the victims. It shall be unlawful for any person to possess a weapon with the purpose of using it unlawfully against the person or property of another. New Jerseys weapon possession law invoked in Panero's charges highlights the peril of escalating a verbal spat into a life-threatening standoff. >> You know anything like that or want to press charges? Guess who? He said he pulled out. >> I can't believe I was getting a pizza. I didn't even know what's going on. He disrespected my daughter. He thought >> I don't know. When I came out, they were fighting. >> Okay, >> it's my daughter and I see guys. My daughter, man, get involved. My man first time I get involved. >> So again, if you go back in, okay, I was in line. This girl came and I yelled at some other girls >> about cutting the line, right? >> He looked at me. I said, "Bro, I'm not with them. I don't know." I said, "I already cut the line three or four times. I'm in my same spot. I keep going back cuz I know the owner." Okay, I got you. >> I don't even know the manager. I said, "Go back and talk over and over again." He said, "Oh, cool. Can't say nothing. It was over." Then another behind me, I'm at the line. I already paid my food. He didn't pay his though. So, I'm at the thing. He going to say, "Bro, you been talking crazy all you've been talking crazy all night." I said, "Who? You talking to me, bro?" I said, "No, I didn't say nothing to you." He said, "Nah, you've been talking crazy." I said, "You talking about dude over there." He was talking to his wife cuz you just yelled at his girls about the line even though you was wrong. I said, "Bro, I ain't got nothing to do with you." He was like, "All right." So, she was like, "Oh, I'm a cop. I'm this. I'm that." I said, "Bro, nobody care about all that." That's what she said to the girls. So, the girls got mad, just walked out the line. >> Yes. I can tell you I'm touching right back with my daughter. >> And where's your daughter at? She's just with the other officers. >> Yeah. >> You all right, bro? >> I'm good, bro. You sure? >> Trust me, I'm good. You >> ain't giving that energy. You ain't giving up, man. >> He going to say, "Bro, you been talking crazy all night." I said, "Bos say nothing to you." So he said, "Come here. Talk to you for a second." I said, "All right, >> the guy in the green." >> The guy in the green. So I go outside like, "Yo, we got you got a problem. I'm misunderstanding." Whatever it is, I'm in line ahead of you. I already placed my order. I don't I don't walk back and forth already. Like I've been done already. >> So he going to pull out a knife. Look like the one green. It was a little little black knight. He uh he pulled it out right here. >> So my wife jumped up like, "Yo, what's going on?" I said, "Hold on, babe. Hold on. What the [ __ ] bro? What's your problem?" He said, "Nah, you talking crazy all night. What's up with you? What's up with you?" I said, "Bro, what the you drunk or something? Like what? I don't even know you, bro. You talking about he like nah that [ __ ] that shit." So his man at first with the black hoodie was trying to break it up. I said, "Bro, your man, he coming at me for no reason. I got nothing to do with that." He said, "Let it go. Let it go." I said, "Bro, nothing's going to say no problem." The man bugging. So my wife jumped like, "Yo, chill out. Chill out. Chill out." He got a knife. He got a knife. So his girl come out of nowhere and hit my wife. She hit him first. So she hit her. So her right there, she hit her and then he jump in like, "Oh," he grabbed her. So I grabbed the girl like, "Yo, chill out. Fight for no reason." It's a It's a misunderstand what you got going on. I already paid my food, my bro. Like this over. >> You searched me already, too. I ain't had no knife. I ain't got no knife on. >> If you say you don't got no knife, you don't >> I don't.

Please get her out of here. >> Yeah. >> So he was like, "Nah, that like smiling trying to talk crazy." I said, "Bro, you got a knife over over." >> So he swing the knife and I grabbed the knife to my arm. Like grab I hook him like you put your arm out. I hook him like this. So then I hook him and he falls back. Huh? Put the knife back. Yeah, he had in his little this little hand, little pocket [ __ ] He pulled it like this and boom. Did he put it back? >> I don't. He had a while. He probably dropped it underneath the knock. >> So I hit his girl after she hit her. >> Of course she hit my daughter. He hit my daughter so hard, bro. >> They despair two people. Go upstairs and check for the uh the knife anywhere up there. >> Ain't no Ain't no man witnesses. Damn, we're seeing if we have the local. >> Is my daughter down there? Is my daughter down there? That's where they all going. >> Down there. Can you please see her? >> Yes, she's she's she's detained upstairs. >> She's detained? >> Yeah, just like just like you're detained. He's detained. She's detained upstairs. >> I don't know. He's in this area. >> So, I'm just looking around. I'm going to look outside and I'm going to look inside, too. >> Did the fight happen in here or out there? outside. >> Sarah, can I just get your ID real quick? >> So what? >> Cuz we have to identify everyone who's on >> because you're involved in an incident. We have them though. So I don't get it. >> I get it. So we have to identify you if you were jumped as a victim. Okay. >> I don't want to be a victim. >> It doesn't matter what you want. You're a victim. So we have to identify you in this situation. >> Your wife or whoever she is to you, your girlfriend, she provide identification. We just need to identify you guys. Doesn't mean you're in trouble. So I'm hearing you want to press charges. >> Yeah. Cuz you had if you had a problem, you felt like it was with me. So take it with me then.

She started choking her. >> She what? >> He started choking her. So she fell out. She passed out. >> She upstairs. >> Oh, she's upstairs. >> Yeah. >> Who is she to you? The one that got >> your wife. >> Okay. >> Where witnesses later revealed the knife's hiding spot and video evidence showed the husband swinging it wildly. Kila attempting to play the victim card by flashing her officer ID only dug her hole deeper, revealing her entitlement as she demanded leniency, unaware that her I'm an officer myself plea was being recorded for posterity. In a desperate bid to evade capture, Rya slipped past police lines and vanished into the night with her boyfriend. But an anonymous email soon exposed her role in the vicious assault on the victim. >> Trying to look the video cuz we have so many different stories going on right now, but we have two that are involved and aren't even here now. So, we're trying to figure everything out, you know. You see anything? >> Yeah. The girl with the paint and the jeans. He dropped the knife on the new taxi. Me and him. >> Okay.

You remember when was >> Oh yeah, cuz the way you play. >> I'm just saying to relax the whole time. >> You forgot I'm recording, too. >> Relax. You can record. Afterward, Kila attempted to assault the victim, but was restrained by police, leading to her arrest. >> My daughter, she was out here, >> and then she went inside to come after him cuz he's the one that hit her. >> Okay. >> All right. Where is she at? >> You talking about the one that was banging on the door? >> My daughter with the black short. She never came in. >> All right.

Don't mean you got to disrespect the girl because of what she want. She got her man. Like you don't disrespect because she got a cute body. >> Mad. I don't know what to do. Like I've never been in trouble in my life. >> So if it's a simple assault if you think it's literally going to be ticket, it's probably going to get dropped. >> No, I wish I did hit. >> It's literally a ticket. You have a court date on it. So for the court date, >> so listen to me. If you want to do the same thing, she going to do the same thing back to you.

Get safe. I guess I guess >> all three of them came home kicking from the reason why everybody else told me back. They were kicking for no reason. Because the thing is she did lose consciousness at the end of it. >> Oh my god. Like a regular PC. >> I'm so sorry. >> A person is guilty of simple assault if he attempts by physical menace to put another in fear of imminent serious bodily injury. Kila Panero was charged with aggravated assault and simple assault for her role in the violent brawl. Her daughter Rya faced charges of aggravated assault after an anonymous email revealed her identity and involvement. Kila's husband was charged with aggravated assault, unlawful possession of a weapon, possession of a weapon for unlawful purposes, and terroristic threats for brandishing a knife during the altercation. This charge alongside Rya's aggravated assault indictment illustrates the futility of flight in an era of viral videos and tipster networks as the bystanders ex post racked up 2 million views, turning their family meltdown into public spectacle. Kila's impulsive rage not only shattered the victim's night, but torpedoed her 10-year career as a correctional officer, earning her suspension without pay and a $78,399 salary lifeline severed pending trial. Public employees shall be disciplined only for just cause, but conduct unbecoming a public employee, including off-duty behavior that brings discredit upon the agency, warrants termination. This standard from civil service codes doom Kila, whose threats and assaults despite her academy graduation in 2014, exposed the hypocrisy of a badgewear who couldn't deescalate her own chaos. As charges of aggravated and simple assault loomed alongside her husband's weapon felonies, the family outing morphed into a cautionary tale.
