The Miscellaneous Thought Thread

I don't quite understand why she was let in. If she was a known problem, couldn't they flag her pass? And if the entry CM had suspicions about the children's ages, couldn't they have held her at the gate for a manager to confirm?

But mostly I wonder if this was happening while I was eating at Boardwalk Pizza and I missed it, darn it!

You can't accuse someone without proof. They can look at security footage and suspect that her kids were not under 3, but that wouldn't really hold up. They needed to catch her in the act and demand proof while she was committing the act, and they finally did.

The thing is, she wasn't arrested or handcuffed because she sneaked her kids into the parks. They did it because she was being defiant, uncooperative and belligerent toward the police.

They most likely chose not to confront her at the gate because Disney doesn't want a scene at the place where people are getting their first impressions of the park for the day. They seemed to have waited until they were near an easy egress point in the park.

Couldn't they have taken her out through the backstage?

A few CM's chimed in on Reddit and I thought one of them said they escorted her out backstage and didn't drag her handcuffed through the entire park.

I find it amusing that during all of this, the gal still had on that Mouse Earband.

From the article:
..."She came in on a valid pass and brought her two kids," Anaheim police Sgt. Matt Sutter told Fox News Digital. "When security tried to question her about her kids' age, she just kept walking and didn't stop. They caught up with her later inside the park."..."

Why couldn't they question her before letting her in? It would've been a lot less dramatic if they'd stopped her at the gate. Turn her away if she won't prove her kids' ages, which I'm sure Disney has the right to ask, especially since she had a history:

..."Diaz, a resident of the Los Angeles suburb of Torrance, tried to enter the park without paying for tickets, something she had done before, Disneyland officials told Fox News Digital. When confronted by park security and police, she became uncooperative, they said."

She had a stroller and most of the gates for strollers were removed after covid. She probably just scans her AP and goes pushes past the cm at the open gate

I’ve never paid much attention but other than bag check I don’t think I’ve ever noticed security at the park gates, the CM’s scanning tickets aren’t security so I’m sure the policy is to just let them in and then let security deal with them once they get there.

She must have been making quite a scene if the police were involved inside the park, especially to the point she was in cuffs, I’ve seen quite a few YouTube videos of people getting escorted out of both Disney and Uni and security at both are pretty good at discretely getting people out of the parks, the police aren’t usually involved until after they get to the security office.
