BERLIN, CT (WFSB) - The woman at the center of a viral video accusing a Navy sailor of wearing a fake uniform was arrested. She turned herself in on Thursday.
Channel 3 also learned on Friday that Desjardins worked for CVS Health.
Berlin police on Friday identified the suspect as 45-year-old Lori Desjardins of Southington.
"This individual is no longer employed by the company," said Joe Goode, senior director, corporate communications for CVS Health.
Police said they served Desjardins an active arrest warrant that charged her with third-degree assault and second-degree breach of peace.
She was released on a $10,000 non-surety bond and is scheduled to appear in court in New Britain on Sept. 23.
In the video that went viral on social media, Desjardins was seen at the Central Pizza restaurant in Berlin on Saturday night yelling at U.S. Navy sailor Sean Nolte Jr.
Nolte identified himself on social media as being the man in the video. The Naval Submarine base in Groton also confirmed to Channel 3 that he is a student at the submarine school.
Nolte wrote on social media that the woman, now identified as Desjardins, didn't believe his uniform as real and called him a disgrace to the USA. She was seen in the video hitting him with an open hand.
The owner of Central Pizza, Jason Bikaksi, said it happened quickly. "It finished so fast — like lightening."

Gaaah! Yeah, I caught that as well, but in my enraged rantings, forgot to rip on it....
Probably German to English. This took place in Berlin.
Oh, it cleared editors too.
In case you’re not joking, Berlin is in Connecticut. It’s pronounced BURRlin, rhyming with hurlin’. Not to be confused with other New England placenames like Moscow, Versailes, the River Thames, Lisbon, etc., all comically pronounced phonetically.
That female is no lady.
I heard from an old friend a couple of months back who had an encounter with a raging Karen in his ER...this gal actually had her own IR thermometer gizmo that she would pull from her purse and aim at peoples head to see if they had a fever and were going to give her the coof...lol

OMG. Well, I guess we can be grateful she didn’t carry a rectal thermometer.
Berlin, CT.
The reason I said India is because even though the link says WFSB, which is a Connecticut tv station, this is the URL: https://j99news.com/2021/09/17/woman-arrested-fired-from-job-after-video-of-her-slapping-navy-sailor-on-9-11-goes-viral/

Ma’am, this is a Village People concert!
Why? It could be a new seaweed camo issue. We got dungarees, whites w/pullover/dress white shirt and dress blues.
I was in a store and saw this middle-aged guy with one of those stupid blue masks on and an upside down face shield. On his belt he had a UV light and he scanned every item he was purchasing then scanned them again after the clerk touched them to ring them up. As he walked out the door he scanned the door handle.
I actually laughed out loud and he squinted his eyes at me. I think he was frowning under the mask and shield.
Yep. Watched the video. Definitely drunk.
Almost every snake-bite case that used to come into the ER where I worked involved alcohol...seriously
Getting plastered and dancing a jig on a copperhead was a sport in the Ozarks...
CVS is unbelievably progressive. I can’t believe they didn’t give her an award and promotion.
...no one gets a second chance anymore.

Before the internet, things like this spread via word of mouth and rumor and needed to be egregious like pushing a crippled woman down a flight of stairs. Orherwise, you got a warning.
The person who wrote this article really struggles with pronouns. It makes it difficult to follow the story.
The US Navy just converted the ugly gray-blue “Utility Uniform” …”Uts” to a better looking green “MARPAT (Marine Corps Pattern Camouflage).” We have a church kid who is Active Duty Nuke Navy while his brother is at USNA as a Second Classman. The lady didn’t know what she was talking about and fucked up royally.
It’s like a four year old dictated the story.
That must be some mighty strong alcohol you folks drink in the Ozars. We don’t have copperheads in CA, but we got all sorts of other rattlesnakes, and I have never seen anybody drunk enough to dance a jig on one.
You ain’t seen nothing until you have seen a drunk hillbilly!
I know, I have more than a touch of hillbilly in me :-)
There was such a rich pagent of idiocy and illeteracy, those of us behind you could look for our favorites and check it off the menu.
Well done, FRiend!!!
