Florida Rich Girl Arrest: "My Dad Owns This Island!" Bodycam
Do privilege and wealth truly place someone above the law? Bodycam footage has emerged from Florida, capturing the arrest of Stephanie Bloodworth, a 24-year-old woman who repeatedly asserted her father's ownership of an island while being apprehended for driving under the influence (DUI). The incident, which unfolded on February 21, 2022, in Duck Key, Monroe County, Florida, has ignited a firestorm of debate about wealth, entitlement, and the justice system.
The events of that day began with a report of a gray Tesla nearly striking a tree and pedestrians on Duck Key. According to the Monroe County Sheriffs Office, multiple deputies responded to the scene at approximately 6:30 p.m. after a caller reported the reckless driving. Upon stopping the vehicle, driven by Stephanie Marie Bloodworth, deputies suspected she was intoxicated. What followed was a series of interactions captured on bodycam, revealing Bloodworth's increasingly agitated state and her insistence on contacting her father, whom she claimed owned the island. "Can I call my father? He owns this island," she allegedly stated multiple times as she was being handcuffed. The situation escalated, resulting in Bloodworth's arrest and subsequent charges including DUI, resisting arrest, and fleeing law enforcement.
