What starts as a routine DUI arrest turns into an unexpectedly human — and slightly humiliating — moment when a young woman realizes her friends have just shared her location on Snapchat… while she’s in police custody.
The Stop That Changed Her Night
The footage, taken from official police records, begins like any standard post-arrest breathalyzer scene. The officer calmly explains the test — how the machine works, the “insufficient sample” warning, and what could happen if she doesn’t comply.
“It’s gonna beep when it tells us to blow. Take a deep breath in, put your lips on the tube, and blow as long and as hard as you can. If it logs as an insufficient sample three times, it’ll be marked as a refusal — and you lose your license for a year.”
She cooperates, follows instructions, and quietly admits she’s maybe a “two or three” out of ten on the drunk scale.
“Two or three,” she says softly.
It seems calm — almost professional — until reality sets in.
When the Internet Gets Involved
As the officer walks her through next steps — posting bail, arranging a ride, and doing fingerprints — she suddenly blurts out:
“They have my location. These motherfers put it on Snapchat. That’s fing embarrassing.”
The officer, instead of reprimanding her, bursts into laughter and responds with the kind of dry humor only a veteran cop could deliver:
“At least they know how to find you. That’s good friends — that’s funny. That’s good friends right there.”
It’s an oddly wholesome exchange amid a tense night — a rare flash of levity in the middle of an arrest.
The Aftermath
According to online court records, the woman later pled guilty to DUI. She received:
- Two years of court supervision
- Mandatory alcohol treatment
- $3,000 in fines and fees
The officer’s demeanor throughout — firm but surprisingly kind — didn’t go unnoticed. Viewers online have praised how calmly he handled the situation, offering her respect despite her obvious embarrassment.
The Bigger Picture
Beyond the viral clip, this story hits on a familiar modern nightmare: getting caught doing something stupid — and your Snapchat location making it public before the police report even does.
In an age where every mistake can end up online before you sober up, it’s a reminder that the internet never sleeps… and your friends might accidentally turn your worst night into a meme.
