Woman Arrested After Telling Cop She Was Speeding Because Her Mom Has Cancer
Yahoo News ^ | 10/21/2026 | Nicholas Tan

Some drivers who are caught speeding make some of the most outlandish excuses when they face the cops. One woman in Florida was flustered when a deputy asked why she was driving 90 miles per hour and she tells him that she was late to visiting her mom who has cancer. The driver didn't have a license, though, which led deputies to search her vehicle. And that's when they found many things that she didn't want them to know about.

Bodycam footage shows a deputy asking [Tosha] Cisco why she was driving 90 miles per hour in a 50-mph zone. The driver initially says she doesn't know why she was being stopped. The deputy then asks if she has a license, but Cisco admits that she doesn't have one on her. As a result, she's told to step out of the car.

As she's being detained in handcuffs, Cisco then tells the cop that she's late for meeting her mother who has cancer. The deputies don't flinch at that excuse, though, and detain both her and the passenger.

In part due to the driver not having a license, police say that they had probable cause to search the vehicle. One deputy is seen finding "a whole bag of pills" in the trunk of the car. Among the drugs they find include spice, THC oil and wax, numerous bottles of prescription medications, and most importantly, "homemade fentanyl pills disguised as Xanax."

Cisco was charged with one count each of possession of a controlled substance, possession of drug paraphernalia, and trafficking in fentanyl (4 to 14 grams). Meanwhile, Peterson was charged with two counts of possession of a controlled substance, seven counts of possession of a drug without prescription, and one count of possession of cannabis sativa resin.

Thank you very much and God bless you.

2025. Not her first rodeo, as you'd expect.

Her TikTok page is a good example of an immature "Look at me!" life going nowhere.

re: the cancer excuse, I wonder if she even has a mother.

“THC oil “

Uh-oh. Is that illegal?

She may indeed have tattoos but I think that photo has an overlay of the Shriffs star emblem on her face and isn’t a tattoo as such.

It’s always amusing to me that people doing illegal things like hauling substantial amounts of drugs don’t have the common sense to not draw attention to themselves.

Like doing 90 in a 50 zone.

But I suppose if you’re involved with illegal drugs, common sense was probably never one of your strong suits.

Then there is the YouTube video of a traffic stop of a speeder. Woman says she is going to the doughnut shop. Leering at his huge pot belly, she says she wanted to beat the cop to the shop so there would be doughnuts for her to buy.

Talk about lifeless eyes. Trafficking in fentanyl. Lock her up and throw away the key. No telling how many have died because of her.
