Officers told her she could get a courtesy ride home or go to jail for public intoxication. Then, Clark asked if she could go to her car and lock it before she left. Officers allowed this and escorted Clark to her car, during which she started screaming at them and the bar staff, so officers detained her.

Then, officers told Clark they were going to search her, to which she responded, “No the f*ck you’re not!” and became resistive, flailing her body.

This is not the first time I’ve been f*cked in handcuffs! Tighten these cuffs tighter, or I am going to keep doing it!” Officers opened the door to prevent Clark from hitting her head again and called an ambulance to check for possible injuries. While alerting the medics, officers closed the door, and Clark kicked the window about three times. When officers told her to stop, she said, “Or what?” before kicking an officer’s leg, so officers hobble-restrained her feet. Throughout her encounter with the police, she stated, “I am going to kill you, you f*cking pig!” multiple times. Medics arrived, evaluated her, and declared she was healthy enough to transport. Then, Clark was placed back into the patrol car, where she wet herself.
