Newly released footage shows the moment a businessman caused a stir at a police station as she bragged about money, before apparently racially abusing her white boyfriend while he was allegedly drunk.
The woman, identified as Vanessa Castrejon, was stopped by Lake Forest Department officers during a traffic stop when she allegedly made an “inappropriate turn” in November 2023.
After a few minutes of conversation, during which Castrejon was heard telling the officer he was “hot” and saying she was being pulled over because she was a “Latina,” it was quickly deduced that she was allegedly drunk.
At one point she said “I’m a businesswoman” before showing a wad of cash to the officer and asking for her ID. While talking to the police officer, Castrejon seemingly berates her boyfriend, calling him a “white piece of shit” out of nowhere.
After asking the agent ‘do you know how much I earn per year?’ Castrejon was arrested and charged at the scene with driving under the influence. While being led away, Castrejon kicked and spit on officers, according to the arrest report.

Video shows the woman writhing and throwing her legs into the back of the police car as officers tell her to “sit down or she will face new charges if she breaks anything.”
Once the authorities pull up and threaten to tie her up with a seat belt, Castrejon repeatedly says it would be better if they “kill her right now.”
By the time they reached the station, Castrejon began repeatedly demanding to be searched by a female officer, despite officers telling her no one was there.
After being searched, she is heard asking to go to the restroom before the officer asks her to sit down.
She was arrested and charged with Driving While Intoxicated – Alcohol at the scene, and while she was being led away, Castrejon kicked and spit on officers, according to the arrest report
The video shows Castrejon taking off her shirt while standing in the middle of the station and then going to the bathroom.
But as the officer closes the bathroom door, she stops him, stands at the door and tells him that she would prefer to “piss herself” there.
She then returns to the center of the station without using the bathroom and is handcuffed by officers.
Shortly afterwards, they take off the handcuffs so she can wear her shirt and ask if she wants to go to the bathroom.
She was ultimately charged with improper turn, misdemeanor aggravated battery on a peace officer and resisting a peace officer
But she tries to put on her shirt, she ends up over her head and covers her face while she can’t complete the action.
After chatting for a few minutes, she manages to put on her shirt and sits down in the station.

It is unclear if a court date has been set for her case or if she has entered a plea at this time.
