“Don’t shoot at my window! What the f*ck!” Santay shouted as federal agents surrounded her vehicle.
Despite no indication that agents were threatening lethal force, Santay escalated the drama, loudly appealing to religion while visibly panicking for her livestream audience.
“Lord protect me please!” Santy shouted as she mustered up fake tears for her social media followers.
Moments later, Santay accused agents of damaging her vehicle, repeating the claims over and over as viewers watched in real time.
“These guys are breaking my windows, guys!” Santay shouts to her Instagram feed. “They’re breaking my window guys, I’m a US citizen! Insane! This guy is breaking my window guys!”
Federal agents issued clear verbal commands as they attempted to remove Santay from the vehicle.
“Get out of the car! Out of the car!” federal agents shouted.
Instead of complying, Santay continued narrating the situation to her followers, framing herself as a victim while openly acknowledging that she believed arrest was imminent.
“They’re going to try to arrest me!” she repeated to her social media followers. “This is insane. I can’t believe this is happening, guys! Lord, please protect me! Lord, please! Guys, I don’t trust them!”
WATCH:
The incident marked yet another confrontation between Santay and federal authorities—one that appears to follow a pattern rather than a one-time misunderstanding.
Earlier in the week, Santay was stopped by federal agents near the 10 Freeway after reportedly stalking ICE officers. Despite placing herself in close proximity to law enforcement during active operations, Santay later portrayed herself as the endangered party during a television interview.
Speaking to ABC 7, Santay claimed she feared for her life during the earlier encounter.
“I thought, ‘This is it. These are my last moments,’” she said.
She went on to describe the agents’ positioning as aggressive, even though officers were reportedly responding to her behavior.
“One of the officers got on the curb on the middle island to box my car in, one came on here, and one was behind me. Because of all the commotion, the police department got there,” she told ABC 7.
Despite the chaos caused by activists at Friday’s gas station incident, local law enforcement did not interfere as federal agents completed the arrest. Santay was taken into custody without local police intervention and transported to Santa Ana for processing.
Authorities later confirmed that Santay was charged with resisting arrest.
The episode underscores the increasingly theatrical nature of far-left activism, where confrontation with law enforcement is not only anticipated but seemingly sought out for social media attention. Rather than de-escalating, activists like Santay appear to deliberately insert themselves into federal operations—then broadcast the consequences to online audiences while claiming victimhood.
As ICE continues its mission to enforce federal immigration law, confrontations like this raise serious questions about public safety, obstruction of justice, and the growing trend of activists using livestreams as shields against accountability.
For now, Santay’s livestream may have gained views—but it also captured evidence of yet another activist crossing the line from protest into interference with federal law enforcement.
