Hasier told officers that she was in the bedroom and when she came into the living room, she found the boyfriend watching a pornographic movie, which upset her, leading to the fight. Hasier then began yelling at officers and the boyfriend, again, according to the report.
While speaking with the couple, officers noted 'deplorable conditions' inside the home, according to the report. Due to the conditions, officers called a building inspector to assess the home.

Hasier was taken to the police station, where she began to bang her head on the wall and stated she wanted to kill herself. She was taken to South Suburban Hospital for a mental evaluation and issued a citation for disorderly conduct.
