#8 - Catherine Bush
On March the 21st of 2022, during a Jet2 flight from Manchester, England to Antalya, Turkey,
British woman Catherine Bush became belligerent and confrontational with the cabin crew,
as well as other passengers. Her outburst, which was captured in a cell phone video that
subsequently went viral, was reportedly triggered about an hour and a half into the flight.
She’d grown increasingly disturbed by the sound of young children crying on board the plane,
and also claimed that certain passengers had been “looking at her funny”. In order
to confront the individuals responsible for the perceived disrespect, Bush walked to the
front of the cabin and allegedly slapped some of her fellow travelers. Flight staff intervened,
requesting that she calm down and return to her seat. It was at that point that Bush shifted her
ire towards the crew, launching a barrage of expletive-laden insults at them. According to
eyewitnesses, the woman then tried to exit the aircraft mid-flight by opening one of its doors,
but was fortunately unable to do so. The flight was ultimately diverted to the Austrian capital
of Vienna, where Bush was removed from the plane. In the incident’s aftermath,
Jet2 announced that they were issuing the woman a hefty fine, as well as a lifetime ban from any of
the airline’s future flights. #7 - Khutbi Abdelkader
Shortly before 5 pm, on May the 5th of 2021, a gun was fired during an altercation outside of the
Smoke Sum smoke shop in New Orleans, Louisiana. Responding police officers came upon a man,
identified as Anthony Francois, who’d sustained a gunshot wound. Francois was taken to a nearby
hospital, where he ultimately passed away. Another man, later named as 24-year-old Khutbi Abdelkader,
was detained by police at the store for questioning. It was quickly established
that Abdelkader had been responsible for the shooting, and he was consequently arrested on
a charge of second-degree murder. In the wake of the incident, it emerged that Francois had
allegedly been threatening and harassing the Smoke Sum staff “almost daily for over a week”.
On the day of the shooting, Abdelkader had confronted the man about his behavior
after seeing him banging on the glass storefront. During his interviews with investigators,
Abdelkader claimed to have seen Francois “reaching for an object” as their argument escalated.
Believing the man to have been in the process of pulling out a gun, Abdelkader brandished his
own weapon and shot him twice. Despite his initial claims of self-defense, he was ultimately indicted
on the murder charge in February of 2022. #6 - Lamont Butler
Las Vegas police were dispatched to a residence at about 1:50 pm, on January the 17th of 2022, after
receiving reports of gunfire on the premises. Upon their arrival, officers discovered that a man,
later named by the Clark County coroner’s office as Da’Morian Turner, had been shot. The incident
was related to an altercation that had erupted during a social gathering being held in the 900
block of Morgan Avenue. Turner was ultimately declared dead at the scene. The individual who’d
fired the fatal round reportedly fled following the shooting, but he was ultimately identified
as 29-year-old Lamont Butler. Three days later, Butler was tracked down by the Metro Police and
booked into the Clark County Detention Center on a single count of open murder.
#5 - Krista Glover While participating in The Players Championship,
in May of 2018, professional golfer Lucas Glover was involved in a domestic violence incident in
Florida. On the 12th of the month, the 38-year-old had contacted the St. Johns County Sheriff's
Department following an altercation with his wife, Krista, in which she’d allegedly attacked both him
and his mother. Glover told investigators that his wife would often get upset with him, sometimes to
the point of turning physically violent, whenever he played poorly in a golf tournament. During the
incident in question, Krista had drunkenly initiated an argument with Glover about how
he’d failed to reach the championship round that weekend. She proceeded to berate and hit him in
front of their family. When his mother attempted to intervene, Krista reportedly struck her in the
arms and chest. She reportedly became hostile towards the responding police officers as well,
launching a barrage of profanities as they took her into custody. Krista was ultimately charged
with domestic battery and resisting arrest and, the following day, was released from the county
jail on a $2,500 bond. It later emerged that, at the behest of Glover himself, the charges
against his wife had been dropped, and she thus avoided punishment in connection to the incident.
#4 - Charlene Thompson Two women got into a heated argument that turned
violent at a home in Mount Airy, Ohio, a suburban neighborhood of northern Cincinnati, on December
the 2nd of 2018. Subsequent reports didn’t specify the relationship between the individuals,
one of whom was identified as 61-year-old Charlene Thompson and described as the primary aggressor
in the altercation. As indicated by court records, the situation dramatically escalated
and culminated with Thompson dumping hot grease all over the other woman. The victim reportedly
suffered severe burns to her arms and back, which were clearly visible to officers when
they arrived at the scene. Thompson was taken into police custody and charged with felonious assault,
and her bond was subsequently set at $50,000. At the time of her arrest, Thompson already had two
outstanding warrants in Hamilton County, stemming from charges of criminal damaging or endangering.
It also emerged that she had a long history of criminal activity, including several instances
of assault. During one incident, which occurred on Christmas Eve 2006, Thompson had allegedly struck
her daughter over the head, although the charges were eventually dismissed as part of a plea deal.
Beyond her assault-related arrests, the woman had also faced criminal charges in connection to drug
possession, arson, and theft in the past. #3 - Iyanna Mayweather
In the early morning hours of April the 4th of 2020, Iyanna Mayweather was arrested following
a violent altercation at the residence of rapper NBA YoungBoy, in Houston, Texas. The 19-year-old
woman, identified as the daughter of former boxer Floyd Mayweather, had reportedly gotten into an
argument with her love rival, Lapattra Lashai Jacobs, the previous night. It later emerged that
Jacobs was the mother of one of NBA YoungBoy's children, while Mayweather claimed to be engaged
to the prolific hip-hop artist. Investigators learned that it was Jacobs who’d initiated the
altercation by pulling Mayweather’s hair, after which the latter allegedly charged at her with two
knives and proceeded to stab her multiple times in the arm. Although her injuries were described
as non-life threatening, Jacobs was subsequently taken to a nearby hospital to undergo surgery.
Upon her arrest, Mayweather was booked into the Harris County Jail on a charge of aggravated
assault with a deadly weapon and her bond was set at $30,000. For the attack, the young woman faced
a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison but she ultimately reached a plea deal with prosecutors,
in April of 2022, which sentenced her to 6 years of probation and 40 hours of community service.

#2 - Bryan Alexis Cifuentes On January the 30th of 2022, the Los Angeles
Rams played against the San Francisco 49ers in the National Football League’s NFC Championship Game
at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California. Roughly 30 minutes after the game had begun,
stadium security found a man, later identified as Daniel Luna, unconscious in the parking lot.
Emergency services were called to the scene, and Luna was transported to Harbor-UCLA Medical
Center, where he was placed in a medically-induced coma. Investigators obtained surveillance footage
from the stadium in an attempt to determine what events had led to Luna’s catatonic state.
As detailed by the Inglewood Mayor, in a subsequent press conference, security video
had captured a fight between Luna and another man, Bryan Alexis Cifuentes, during what appeared
to have been a tailgate party. Luna, who was reported to have been wearing a 49ers jersey,
had instigated the altercation by pushing the Rams jersey-clad Cifuentes. The latter then retaliated
by pushing Luna back and punching him in the mouth, knocking him unconscious. The police traced
a vehicle shown in the video that was believed to have belonged to Cifuentes and contacted its
registered owner. The man ultimately agreed to speak with investigators about the incident,
voluntarily going to the Inglewood Police Department later that night to undergo a line of
questioning. Following the interview, 33-year-old Cifuentes was arrested and charged with one felony
count of battery with serious bodily injury. Updates indicated that he was scheduled to be
arraigned on August the 29th of 2022. #1 - Brittney Alyssa Griffith
Georgia woman Brittney Alyssa Griffith was arrested for shooting a teenager in the head
during a road rage altercation, on May the 1st of 2022. Shortly before 5 pm, the 30-year-old
woman had been following Ashlyn Crouch’s car along Interstate 20, near Villa Rica, for an estimated
15 miles. According to local police, their dispute had been sparked by a previous traffic incident in
which Crouch had cut Griffith off. The altercation abruptly escalated as the two vehicles approached
the Chapel Hill Road exit, in Douglasville, which was when Griffith allegedly pulled out a gun and
fired a single round in the teen’s direction. The bullet reportedly struck the victim behind the
ear before exiting through the side of her eye. Crouch was rushed to a hospital for treatment,
and medical staff subsequently revealed that she was expected to make a full recovery.
A female passenger in Crouch's car took a picture of the moment Griffith had brandished the firearm,
which investigators used to identify the suspect. Immediately after the shooting,
in what was regarded as a casual attitude towards her actions, Griffith had reportedly gone to get
her nails done. She eventually turned herself into the authorities at about 11 pm that night,
and was consequently charged with aggravated assault and possession of a firearm during the
commission of a felony, as well as three counts of cruelty to children. The latter
charge stemmed from the fact that Griffith’s three children had been in the car with her
at the time she’d fired the gun. The following morning, Judge Susan Camp
denied Griffith’s bond during a hearing at the Douglas County Magistrate Court.
