According to TikToker @savageday123, what should’ve been a normal day quickly spiraled into chaos when two state troopers and eight police officers responded to an incident involving her son, Alex, and his partner, Lori.
The heavy police presence at the scene caused a traffic jam, turning a private conflict into a public spectacle.
TikToker @savageday123 is now putting her son on blast for getting in trouble with the cops again, and she’s not holding anything back.
She is also not making excuses for what happened, even though it involved her own child.
She filmed the entire thing and posted the video on TikTok, showing a line of cars backed up down the road. It wasn’t the first time that law enforcement had been in their lives.
“Apparently, they were hitting each other and fighting,” she said. “Domestic violence is not okay by any means. It’s never okay. I know it’s embarrassing to say that I almost know every single one of these officers by name, first name.”
She speculated that paraphernalia was found in Alex and Lori’s car, so the car was getting impounded. When Alex was arrested again, he asked his mother to come get him, but she refused, saying he needed to face the consequences of his actions.
As painful as it was, stepping in would only enable the cycle to continue.
“This is so unnecessary; I cannot believe my kid does this,” she said. “I am so sorry that my son just does not, or Lori, know how to control themselves. This is insane…They need to stay away from each other. They’re toxic to each other.

Sometimes, the most loving thing a parent can do is stay on the sidelines and let consequences do their job. In the comments section, many TikTok users praised her for not enabling her son, as so many other mothers do. Some shared similar stories and agreed that she was doing the right thing.
“I got arrested with my best friend when we were 13. She bonded out the next day. I sat for days; I never [committed] a crime again. She went to jail like 10 times since. Let him sit,” commented one user.
“You aren’t alone! I left my son in county for six days until his girlfriend moved back to her family. Bailed him out and put him into inpatient rehab for the next 21 days. Stay strong, we are in this together,” chimed in another.
“I’ve been dealing with this since 2022. My son and his wife are in and out of jail. What makes it worse is [that] my granddaughter is in the middle and a baby on the way. My son [has been] sitting in jail now since December 17. I refuse to bail him out. DV affects the whole family,” wrote someone else.
