00:00Everett's cameras captured her coming back throughout the night to do more damage.
00:04Welcome to WatchMojo, and today we're counting down our picks for times rude, belligerent,
00:10and entitled folk had a temper tantrum so big that it caused damages worth a lot of money.
00:17Crews worked to clear out the damage inside the Rise at 19th apartment complex.
00:23Number 10. Hungry Hungry Karen
00:26We all get hangry sometimes, but most of us don't resort to an outburst like Tiana Jones
00:32had in 2022. After visiting the McDonald's drive-thru in Lakeland, Florida, she realized
00:38her order was wrong. So she stormed inside and verbally laid into workers. Then Jones
00:53began chucking anything within her reach, some of which struck employees. After her sister came in
00:58to drag her away, Jones showed her pregnant stomach and twerked before leaving. Next,
01:12she called 911 about the wrong order. Yikes. Altogether, Jones' rampage came to around $100,
01:20and she was later arrested. The sheriff didn't help the situation by using as many McDonald's
01:25puns as possible in a press conference, which included calling Jones a McMess.
01:42Number 9. Airport Parent Losing your kid in a public place is one of
01:47the worst things that can happen to a parent. However, there are better ways of dealing with
01:59it than Camilia McMillie did in 2022. While at the Miami International Airport, her children
02:05disappeared. McMillie lost it with the gate agent and screamed for them to find her kids.
02:10Then she attacked technology. McMillie damaged a boarding pass reader and threw a computer
02:16monitor at the employee, injuring them. Officers say McMillie lost track of her kids and became
02:21upset. That's when she started shouting at workers. Eventually, she was restrained and
02:26later arrested and charged for her behavior, which she apologized for. The kids were located in the
02:32restroom, having wandered off without telling McMillie. During her rampage, she caused $10,000
02:38worth of damage. 25-year-old Camila McMillie is facing charges of aggravated battery,
02:43criminal mischief, and disorderly conduct. Number 8. Nasty Nuptials
02:49Cairns and weddings are a horrible, horrible mix. In 2022, one woman had an expensive tantrum in
02:57Chongqing, China. She went to a bridal shop to request a refund of her $550 deposit for a wedding
03:03package. However, the store refused. So did the Cairn leave without further incident? No, of course
03:10not. She took some scissors and cut away the pricey gowns on display while being filmed by
03:16staff. Altogether, she destroyed 32 dresses, causing $11,000 worth of damage. Unsurprisingly,
03:23wedding Cairn was arrested for her snippy display. Reportedly, she offered to pay the store around
03:28$4,700 in compensation. However, considering that's less than half of the damages, her offer
03:35wasn't accepted. Number 7. Sauce Scandal Some restaurants are happy to give you
03:42extra sauce for your dipping needs for free. Others may require a fee. It's just how the
03:48world works. However, in 2022, Pearl Azoria, Chitaro Placencia, and Tatiana Johnson weren't
04:04happy with the additional $1.75 charge at the Bell Fries in Manhattan, New York. Rather than
04:10decline and leave, the trio went on a massive rampage, destroying and throwing anything in
04:16sight. That included cash registers, chairs, and glass bottles, some of which struck staff.
04:33When the cops arrived, they reportedly attacked them too. Altogether, the trio caused up to $20,000
04:39worth of destruction and were charged with several counts, including robbery, criminal mischief,
04:44and assault. Number 6. Gas Station Rampage In June 2023, LaShonda Angeline Johnson was banned
04:58from the Eagle Stop gas station in Columbia, Missouri. In November of the same year,
05:03she went back for more. This cell phone video here shows the person throwing and smashing,
05:09well, plenty of items throughout the store. According to Johnson, the staff were taking
05:14photos and harassing her, which is a possibility if she had caused issues previously. Regardless,
05:21she exploded in rage. They're smashing registers, computers, even two slushy machines that you see
05:26here. Johnson went around the store, smashing and throwing anything she could before driving away.
05:32However, she was later arrested at her home and charged for her frenzy. Johnson smashed a cash
05:38register, many liquor bottles, two drink machines, and various products, which totaled around $26,500
05:46in damages altogether. Johnson made her first court appearance today, charged with felony
05:51property damage, stealing, and trespassing. Number 5. The Christmas Vandal Typically,
05:57people will have fun during the holidays, having a calm and relaxing time with friends
06:03and family. But not if you're Anna Mikhailovich in Waukesha, Wisconsin. Police say Anna Mikhailovich
06:09cut into and spray-painted cars, slashed tires, and threw bricks through doors. In 2023,
06:16as folks opened gifts on December 25th, Mikhailovich wandered around the neighborhood,
06:21damaging vehicles and property. She keyed and spray-painted cars, threw rocks through windows,
06:27and slashed tires during her several hours of vandalism. Neighbors in the area now sort out
06:33the lines left in their cars and holes in their homes. I just don't know why someone would do
06:38something like that. However, a lot of it was caught on camera. The police caught her in the
06:43act of destruction. It's estimated that Mikhailovich's tirade cost up to $200,000.
06:49She's charged with 15 felonies and 9 misdemeanors of criminal damage. Preliminary charges from
06:55police show Mikhailovich faces felony and misdemeanor counts of criminal damage to property
07:00and resisting arrest. Number 4. Pipe Pillager Tiffany Vanessa Bradley isn't exactly a beloved
07:07resident at the Rise at 19th Apartment Complex in Tacoma, Washington. People on fixed incomes
07:13need to find a new place to stay after police say one of their neighbors destroyed a pipe in
07:17their Tacoma apartment complex and caused $2 million in damage. After all, her neighbors
07:23have spoken about her screaming and kicking their doors. But in 2023, Bradley went too far.
07:29She damaged a firestand pipe, which is used to give firefighters access to water. This caused
07:35the apartment complex to be drenched in water as it gushed out of the pipe in the early hours.
07:40Investigators say on March 9th, 42-year-old Tiffany Vanessa Bradley flooded the building.
07:46Documents I obtained say she tampered with a valve inside the complex,
07:50causing water to run for two and a half hours. Due to the damage from the broken valve,
07:5532 tenants out of 64 had to leave their homes and find temporary accommodation. Bradley's actions
08:02are believed to have caused around $2 million worth of damage to the building. Unsurprisingly,
08:07she was arrested and charged for her vandalism. Number 3. Expensive Smooch
08:24There's a well-known rule when it comes to looking at pieces in an art gallery,
08:28keep your hands off. Unfortunately, Rindy Sam couldn't keep her lips to herself. In 2007,
08:35she was at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Avignon, France, which had an exhibition by
08:40American artist Cy Twombly. Sam decided to kiss the all-white Phaedrus artwork,
08:46leaving a red lipstick stain behind. She later described it as an act of love. Worth $2.8
08:53million at the time, restorers couldn't completely remove Sam's mark from the Phaedrus. Sam was fined
09:00$2,200 by the gallery, the painting's owner, and the artist Twombly. In 2009, she was ordered
09:06to pay a further €18,840, around $24,100 in restoration costs. Number 2. Portrait Punch
09:17If you had a long history of crime and wanted to get back at the state, what would you do?
09:22Whatever it is, it won't be what Andrew Shannon did in 2012. While at the National Gallery of
09:28Ireland in Dublin, he pretended to faint when looking at Claude Monet's Argenture Basin with
09:34a single sailboat, and punched a hole through the artwork. At the time, the work was worth
09:39€10 million, around $13.7 million. It took 18 months to restore the painting with microscopic
09:47needlework. However, 7% of the work couldn't be saved. In 2014, Shannon was sentenced to
09:546 years in jail with 15 months suspended. Learning nothing, in 2018, he was sentenced
10:00to 2 years for handling stolen artwork. Before we continue, be sure to subscribe

10:22In 2019, after attending a Marilyn Manson gig, Daniela Leys' evening took a real dive.
10:29After drinking at the venue, she started driving back to her house in Ontario, Canada.
10:34Leys did get behind the wheel. According to the agreed statement of facts at her criminal trial,
10:38she crashed her vehicle into a home on Woodman Avenue, severing the gas line and causing an
10:44explosion. However, Leys crashed and struck a gas pipe at a residence, causing it to leak.
10:50An explosion rocked the neighborhood, destroying several properties. Amazingly, no one perished.
10:56Reportedly, Leys caused up to $15 million in damage. In 2021, after pleading guilty to 4
11:04counts, she was sentenced to 3 years in prison, and several lawsuits were filed against her.
11:10In October 2020, Leys pleaded guilty to 4 counts of impaired driving causing bodily harm,
11:16ultimately being sentenced to 3 years in prison. Yet, the tale doesn't end there. In 2023,
11:23Leys issued her own lawsuit against the company that supplied the venue she drank at on that
11:28fateful night, arguing they should share liability. The statement of claims says,
11:33among other things, the company served her alcohol, didn't monitor how much she was drinking,
11:38let her drink more than she should have, and ejected her from the venue without making sure
11:43she was not going to drive impaired. What's the most expensive thing you've

11:58Surveillance video from McDonald's went viral. The world watched as Tiana Jones flung bottles
