"There’s a girl that got arrested because she smashed a car that she was paying for🤦🏾‍♀️. She bought it under her husband’s name for lower insurance premiums. The guy started being abusive, took her car, and locked her out of the house. Fast forward, she climbed into the gate and smashed her car cos she was angry. The guy called the cops, and she got arrested."
