She continuously ignored police’s instructions and challenged them to prove to her that she had been driving drunk.
“I would really enjoy if I could just go home and figure this out,” she told officers at one point.
As her requests to “just go home” kept getting ignored, she slouched on her chair at one point and muttered to herself: “I hope my rental car is okay”.
At one point in the video, a police officer reminds her she is crying on camera, to which she responds by looking at the camera and saying: “Hello, hi camera! Yeah, I’m crying because he’s not letting me call my f**king father even though they haven’t proven s**t, and don’t have any right for me to be able to contact my family or anyone that I want to.”
