(01:12):

and whatever.
But what I'm about to share, Ijust saw this and I said let me
just bring it up on the screen.
It's this it said Marylandhairstilstylist.
It says seeing dragon, a 15year old, a 15 year old, a 15
year old.
(01:32):
And a video went viral.
I'm like, oh my goodness, butI'm gonna play it.
So, yeah, everybody can see itthat way.
Can see it that way.
You can just laugh to yourself.
Speaker 2 (01:48):
Tonight, 18-year-old Jayla Cunningham is charged with
second degree assault.
I talked to her exclusivelymoments ago.
She says that she did not knowthat her client was 15 years old
.
Meanwhile, I also spoke to the15-year-old's mother and she
says that her daughter istraumatized over what happened.
This video has been viewedmillions of times and she says
(02:10):
that her daughter is viral anddid not want to be.
Let's explain what happened.
In the video that has more than54 million views, you can see
18-year-old Jayla Cunninghamdragging her 15-year-old client
by the hooded sweatshirt, sayingJaila claims the 15-year-old
(02:32):
was trying to leave withoutpaying for the $150 service that
included a weave with tracks.
Jaila cutting the weave out ofthe teen's hair with scissors
because she says the teen didnot pay for the service she ran,
forget, tried.
She ran without paying me andthen, what did you do?
Speaker 4 (02:52):
I dragged her by her hood back into the salon until I
can get paid or, you know,until the police come, or until
you know she let me take out theservice, because it's like she
literally ran outside, like shewas about to be gone.
Speaker 2 (03:04):
I feel like if I didn't do that, she would have
been gone and I would have justnever been paid but the 15 year
old's mother says jayla alsodragged her by her hair when she
grabbed her hood and says thather daughter accidentally sent
the money to the wrong cash appand was trying to pay jayla it's
just absolutely absurd.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
It's viral.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
This is all over the country and how are you dealing
emotionally with this?
Emotionally not good, not goodat all the family has hired the
jackson and associates law firmto represent the 15 year old in
a civil lawsuit the video ishorrendous.
Speaker 3 (03:38):
Um, it's a 15 year old girl.
We're talking about someone'schild, a child who is being
dragged across a salon floor byher jacket for over something as
simple as a mistake.
Speaker 2 (03:52):
And Jayla Cunningham says that she had no clue that
she was charged.
We brought it to her attentiontonight.
She says she heard it for thefirst time and that she has
received death threats as aresult of the viral video.
So she has moved her hair toanother location.
She has a first courtappearance, a summons, on april
18th.
As for the 15 year old, well,her parents say she will undergo
(04:14):
counseling.
I'm shamari stone.
D.K. (04:17):
Back to you I don't know about you, but if I saw my child
being drugged across the floor,it would be some smoke in the
city.
Okay, smoke in the city.
That is totally unacceptable todrag someone else's child.
But wait a minute Now.
(04:39):
The girl was 15, right, thegirl was 15.
You're the hairstylist, you're18.
You're an adult and you'redragging a child across the
floor, 57 million views off avideo.
And then let me point outsomething else.
She came back in and looked atthe camera and was like yeah and
(05:01):
what?
As if to say I don't even givea shit that I did it.
Oh my god, listen, you can'tput your hands on nobody.
No one can put their hands onanyone.
Okay, if it's a dispute betweenmoney guess what you call you
call the police for help andwhatever.
You already got the person'sinformation and all that, and
then you just get your moneyback.
(05:21):
But you went and physically putyour hands on someone and
drugged them.
We didn't see what happenedoutside now.
So you drugged the girl whenshe got back in the store.
So was you dragging her outsidetoo?
And now the family's like oh no,we, we got you, we're just
gonna sue, we're gonna get paidoff of this again, totally,
(05:43):
totally unacceptable.
You don't have the right to putyour hands on anyone.
No one has the right to puttheir hands on anyone.
Okay, if it's a dispute betweenmoney, it's a dispute between
money.
But you see, this is what it iswhen you don't have people,
don't have respect for otherpeople's stuff and and I'm not
saying that the 15-year-old.
(06:04):
Again, there's three sides toevery story.
We didn't see that the15-year-old ran.
This is what she's allegingthat the girl ran right.
But if she did, then she'swrong too.
But there's other ways to handleit.
You've got the girl'sinformation.
You have to get their name andprobably a phone number for them
.
You have to get their name andprobably a phone number for them
(06:25):
.
You handle it other ways.
But you physically assaultingsomeone and dragging across the
floor, and now this little girlhas to live with that for the
rest of her life.
That she was drug across thefloor.
That means all her friends sawit, people that eventually is
going to know her saw it, andpeople.
(06:46):
It just goes on.
Family knows it, friends knowsit.
You know this is justtraumatizing all the way around
for that little kid and I Ireally feel sorry for the 15
year old?
I really do.
But you know, like I said, thisgeneration of society is just
it's no respect for anythinganymore.
I get that everybody wants toget paid I do.
I get everybody wants to getpaid, but it does not constitute
(07:08):
you putting your hands onsomeone because you didn't get
your money.
It doesn't.
It doesn't go to that level ofviolence.
You know people are gettingshot and killed for lesser
things than that.
So you know, again there wasanother way to solve that issue
between you and the little girl.
You could have called her mom,you could did other things, but
(07:31):
dragging that girl across thefloor, humiliating that little
girl like that, was not theanswer, because that was
humiliating and the simple factthat you know everybody's big
and bad when they're doingsomething, but when the
repercussions come, you're notbig and bad anymore.
So again, if that had been mychild, it probably would have
ended up a lot worse than that.
(07:52):
I'm just saying Becauseeverybody's going to defend
their children, everyone's goingto defend their children.
So my thing with this is, again, keep your hands off of
people's kids, seriously, keepyour hands to your goddamn self,
because it's no reason that youneed to be putting your hands
on anyone, anybody.
(08:12):
So keep your goddamn hands toyourself, stop this nonsense.
See, this is why we havingproblems the way we are, because
we don't know how to talkthings out.
Everything always has to bephysical, but no one wants to
sit down and talk.
No one wants to sit down andsay, hey, let's come to a better
(08:33):
solution for this.
Again, I get it.
If the girl did run out on themoney, I get that.
You're upset, but guess what,you still have that girl's
information because they needyour information to make
appointments.
You got the girl's informationand a phone number so you could
have handled it another way.
But I saw that one and I justhad to come on and talk about it
(08:56):
again.
I just thought that was reallyegregious and sad.
And you don't put your hands onsomeone else's kids.
That's a card, no sin.
That's.
That's a way for you to gethurt, and I mean hurt bad.
You putting someone hands onsomeone else's kids.
And again, that little girl'snot even adult.
She's a child, a juvenile, andyou're an adult.
(09:18):
So you know, I hope you got agood lawyer.
That's's the only thing I'msaying.
So I'm going to kick off andsign off.
I just saw that Wanted to comeshare that Again.
This, this.
Keep your hands to yourself.
I can't preach that enough.
Keep your hands to yourself.
(09:38):
Okay, I'm signing off.
