'Drunk rich girl' in Tesla tells cops 'my father owns an island'

Moment ‘drunk rich girl’ in Tesla gets pulled over for DUI – and unleashes barrage of abuse on cops including telling them ‘my father owns an island’

• Dash cam footage captured the dramatic arrest of a ‘drunk’ tesla-driver
• Stephanie Bloodworth, 24, told police they were on her father’s property as they tried to arrest her on the secluded Florida Keys island 
• As cops handcuffed her she said: ‘Can I call my father? He owns the island’

A young Florida woman who fled from police arrest in her Tesla begged cops to let her father – who she said ‘owns the island’ – come and rescue her. 

Stephanie Bloodworth, then 24, was pulled over in February 2022 for speeding around her Florida island in a Tesla because the cop suspected she might have been driving under the influence. 

Bloodworth, who studied at Parsons School of Design in New York City, was caught on dash cam as she was initially pulled over after cops received a reckless driving report on North Bahama drive in Duck Key, Florida.

She ‘refused to comply’ with the arrest, according to the officer, and is heard telling the cop ‘I own this island’ as she got behind the wheel and sped away. 

A female officer arrived at the scene to help with the arrest and together they tried to restrain Bloodworth as she kicked and screamed while sobbing on the phone with her dad.

The female officer told the spoilt girl: ‘This is what happens when you flee and then you kick me’ as the girl sobs lying face down on the ground. 

Bloodworth responded: ‘Can I call my father? He owns the island.’ 

She’s heard repeatedly telling cops they need to talk to her father because they’re on ‘his property’. She said ‘I need my dad here before you do anything to me’ to which the officer responded ‘no that’s not how this works you’re 24 years old.’

Duck Key – the island that Bloodworth claimed her father owns – is a small secluded island and an unincorporated community in Monroe County, Florida in the middle Florida Keys with a population of around 750.

When her dad finally arrived at the scene he said: ‘Stephanie you have to calm down’ and told her this was happening because she had been drinking and speeding.

He told his daughter: ‘Now the way that you’ve acted you’ve gotten yourself in a deep hole and now they’re gonna take you to jail.’

Mr. Bloodworth said: ‘There’s nothing I can do. I’ll get down there and see you when I can. But you can’t start acting out it’s just gonna get worse.’

One of the cops told her father ‘I am so happy that she didn’t kill someone. It’s a blessing in disguise.’
