Number 8 Anjali Ramkissoon Anjali Ramkissoon, a fourth-year
neurology resident with Jackson Health System in Miami, was fired in April of 2016, after a
video had emerged of her attacking and berating an Uber driver. A few months earlier, the 30-year-old
woman had entered the ride-sharing car, without a reservation, at which point the driver asked her
to leave. The interaction that followed was captured on cell phone video by Juan Cinco,
the man who’d ordered the Uber to take him home from the Mary Brickell Village center. Cinco told
the driver to cancel their ride but Ramkissoon became extremely belligerent upon being asked to
exit the car. The driver got out instead but the woman climbed into the front passenger seat and
started throwing his belongings from the dashboard out into the street while ordering him to get
back inside. The items included cash, an iPhone, pieces of paper and receipts as well as a pair of
scissors that landed just inches away from Cinco. She also hit the driver and screamed profanities
at him during her outburst. As he called the police, claiming that he’d suffered bruises during
Ramkissoon’s onslaught, the young woman mocked his reports by saying “I'm a 5-foot-tall girl
who weighs 100 pounds”. Cinco later uploaded the clip to YouTube and wrote in the post that
Ramkissoon only became tearful and apologetic when the police arrived to take her away in handcuffs.
The driver reportedly accepted a cash settlement in lieu of pressing charges. Ramkissoon appeared
on Good Morning America following the incident and publicly apologized for her behavior on the night.
Number 7 Kimberly Pankratius On the evening of November the 1st of 2014,
a woman became furious after a couple had allegedly stolen her parking spot at a
Nebraska Walmart. 36-year-old Kimberly Pankratius pulled up alongside Julie Weakly and her husband,
Christopher, and called them “douche bags”. The couple ignored her remarks and kept walking
towards the store. Christopher would later tell the police that, as they approached the Walmart,
they heard tires screeching in the distance. Pankratius sped towards them in her PT Cruiser
and, as she turned the car, struck 40-year-old Julie in the arm with the driver’s side mirror.
The contact was hard enough for the mirror to break off and hang from the side of the Cruiser.
Julie was left in pain but reportedly declined medical treatment. As Pankratius fled the lot,
the couple wrote down her license plate and she was later questioned by the police.
The woman confessed to the parking lot rage incident claiming that she’d only meant to
scare the couple and panicked upon realizing she’d struck Julie. Pankratius was booked
at Lancaster County jail on charges of assault and use of a deadly weapon to commit a felony.
Number 6 Incident in Molendinar An unnamed woman in Molendinar,
Gold Coast, Australia, absent-mindedly walked her two pugs into a crime scene,
in 2015. In a video-recorded interaction, she became furious upon being approached by
two officers and asked to clear the perimeter. The scene that she’d wandered into was that of
24-year-old Tara Brown’s violent murder. The latter had been forced off the road by her
ex-partner and former gang member Lionel Patea, who then beat her to death. After the dog walker
was stopped by the police, she started screaming at them and refused to move. She then bent down,
picked up a recently-collected bag of dog feces and threw it into an officer’s face. Dumbfounded,
the latter promptly pushed the woman to the ground, where he and a partner began restraining
her. In the video, which since gained attention online, she was heard repeatedly screaming for
her dogs. The woman was taken into custody but no further information was provided on her charges.
Number 5 Billy Steele On August the 15th of 2020, British man Billy
Steele was captured on cellphone footage launching a racist tirade at a group of black passengers
on London’s Central Line Underground train. The 31-year-old builder worked for a company
called S&S Steel Fixing Limited, owned by his wealthy parents. While swinging on the handrail,
he told three black passengers that they were “all going back” while also claiming that they were
lesser than him and that they were his “pets”. He then reportedly started screaming out the
word violence and insulted other passengers who’d intervened to the group’s defense. The trio that
he’d been verbally abusing was then in the process of getting off, at Bank Station, and Steele stared
them down as they passed him. Suddenly, one of the young men launched and landed a thunderous punch
to Steele’s head. He was knocked out cold and tumbled backwards to the opposite side of the car.
As clips of the racist rant and knock out went viral, numerous users sided with the unnamed man
who’d punched him. Steele’s mother told a media outlet that he’d gone to the police, owned up
to his abhorrent behavior and didn’t want the man who’d hit him to be punished. She also mentioned
that he’d begun getting professional help. Number 4 Thanapat Anakesri
In late August of 2019, Thanapat Anakesri was invited to a school reunion in Ang Thong, central
Thailand. After the 69-year-old former navy officer and the rest of the group had sat down to
enjoy food and drinks, Anakesri confronted Suthat Kosayamat. He accused the man of severely bullying
him 53 years earlier, when they were both in their teens. Anakesri became enraged when the second man
claimed that he couldn’t remember tormenting him. Anakesri demanded an apology but Kosamayat
refused, reportedly telling him to forget about it. In the moments that followed, the pensioner
drew a handgun and shot the alleged bully before fleeing the scene. The latter was pronounced dead
in a local hospital while a manhunt was launched for Anakesri. The president of the 1966 class,
who’d organized the event, spoke to the media in the shooting’s aftermath. He revealed that
Anakesri had complained about being bullied by Kosayamat in the past, but added that he’d never
imagined his anger would turn into murder. The man voiced a grim conclusion to the incident by
stating that Anakesri “never forgot about it”. Number 3 Adnan Ahmed
Self-described pick-up artist Adnan Ahmed was convicted of threatening and abusive
behavior towards women in October of 2019. The man, then in his late 30s, called himself
Addy A-Game, and secretly filmed himself approaching women in Glasgow and Lanarkshire,
Scotland. He then used the footage to offer tips on how to overcome “last-minute resistance” to
advances. Ahmed also included audio in the clips that was reportedly recorded during intercourse.
The five women who’d given evidence at his trial, aged in their late teens and early 20s, claimed to
have felt intimated by him. After a jury found the so- called pick-up artist guilty, he was sentenced
to 2 years in jail and ordered to register as an offender for 10 years. In spite of the victims’
testimonies, his conviction was eventually quashed on appeal less than a year later. His lawyers
successfully argued that Sheriff Lindsay Wood had carried out an inappropriate “cross-examination”
of Ahmed that had made it impossible for the jury to have an impartial opinion.

Number 2 Lauren Elizabeth Cutshaw In the early morning hours of August the 4th
of 2018, Lauren Elizabeth Cutshaw drove through a stop sign in South Carolina at 60 mph. An officer
then pulled over her white Ford Fusion in the town of Bluffton. While talking to the police, Cutshaw
was slurring her words and a blood alcohol test registered her at nearly twice the legal limit.
The woman apologized for speeding and running the stop sign, explaining that she’d been heading to
her boyfriend’s home. She admitted to have had few glasses of wine at a nearby restaurant,
while celebrating her 33rd birthday. Marijuana and rolling papers were found in her car and the woman
said that she “may have” smoked earlier in the night. Cutshaw was taken into custody for driving
while intoxicated and the ensuing interaction with the arresting officers was captured on
dashcam audio. From the back of the squad car, the woman began listing the reasons why she shouldn’t
be arrested, which included that she was a pretty girl, implying she’d be at risk in jail. Cutshaw
went on to say that she’d graduated with honors from a “high accredited university” and had been
an All-American cheerleader. Her most troubling statement was, according to a police report,
uttered off-camera when she told an officer that she was a "very clean, thoroughbred, white girl".
When the officer, who was also white, asked what that had to do with anything, Cutshaw told him
that he should know what it meant because he was a cop. The woman, who worked as a real estate agent,
added that her partner was a cop and suggested she didn’t fit the type of people most
commonly encountered in that line of work. She was charged with driving under the influence,
speeding, disregarding a stop sign, simple possession of marijuana and possession of
drug paraphernalia. Cutshaw, whose statements had sparked online outrage, eventually pleaded
guilty to a misdemeanor DUI count. Number 1 Karen Bettez Halnon
A clip of a Penn State University associate professor smoking on an American Airlines
flight while ranting about the US’ global military domination became viral in 2015. Shortly after the
plane coming in from Nicaragua landed at Miami International Airport, Karen Bettez Halnon lit
up a cigarette. Earlier in the flight she’d repeatedly shouted out “The United States has
declared war on Venezuela!” and went on a loud rant. Other passengers captured the academic
on cellphone video as she spoke about the Obama Administration’s supposed plans to take over the
South American country’s enormous oil reserves, as it was going through economic turmoil. The
52-year-old also maintained that the US had given cancer to her hero Hugo Chavez. After flight crew
informed her that she’d be taken into custody by the authorities in Florida for her disruptive
behavior, Halnon replied that she was aware but still determined to say her peace. She lit
up a cigarette and tried to blame it on another passenger when confronted by flight crew before
eventually being escorted off the aircraft and arrested for disorderly conduct. In the incident’s
aftermath, Halnon spoke to a Philadelphia media outlet and defended her actions as a
protest against US imperialism. She referenced sanctions recently imposed by then-president
Obama on Venezuelan officials as evidence of the nefarious agenda. When asked about the smoking,
the professor described it as “a symbol that the United States is a smoking gun” and
“identifying with the revolutionary cause” as all revolutionaries, such as Fidel Castro or Daniel
Ortega, smoked. She also claimed to have been “tortured” by the FBI, following her arrest,
by being put in an extremely cold room, for hours, and not allowed to use the bathroom. Updates from
her case indicated that she was still employed by Penn State but not teaching in the classroom.
