Orange County, Florida Fire Rescue Department firefighter Gabrielle Franze was arrested and charged with misdemeanor stalking last week in neighboring Volusia County after another woman who lives with a man Franze formerly dated called the cops to report that about 100 tampons covered in red paint were dumped on the front lawn of the home they share, Fox 35 Orlando reports.
Franze, 28, was also placed on paid leave over the bizarre, inscrutable prank that maybe makes sense if you live in Florida. Cops determined there was probable cause based on home security camera footage of a truck resembling Franze’s stopping in front of the home and someone getting out to dump the fake bloody tampons on the night of September 29th, as well as Franze’s recent history of shitposting about her ex and his new girlfriend on social media. Franze also admitted to being there but claimed the tampons were not her idea. So maybe she didn’t get the joke either.
