The Officer approached the door, knocked, and announced himself, telling her to open the door. Barton heard the female say something, and he told her again to open the door. This time she opened the door, and she began talking fast and making no sense.
The female was identified as 47-year-old Jamie Elizabeth Maio. Barton told her that the Manager had been trying to get her to come out for about n hour now. Jamie began saying that she would prop the door open when she was done.
It was explained to Jamie that they let her use the bathroom, and they now wanted her to leave. Jamie continued talking fast about her getting her medication filled.
