As a deputy exited their vehicle, they recognized this person to be 35-year-old Breanna Antrim. The duty instructed Antrim to put her shirt back on and come down the hill toward the roadway.
Antrim eventually complied, telling officers that she was mentally ill, further stating she had "meth In her butt." The deputy asked what she meant by that and Antrim refused to repeat what she said. Deputies reported Antrim was acting eratic, but had denied being on any illegal drugs at the time of the incident.
When speaking with Antrim's boyfriend, who had been waiting near by at the scene, he explained the two had been traveling back from Miami, FL, when Antrim allegedly became agitated and began screaming at him to pull over and let her out near the area.
