GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Ka’ari Ja’nariea Callum, 20, was arrested last night and charged with domestic battery and criminal mischief after allegedly hitting her boyfriend’s car repeatedly with a rock and then scratching him; charges have been dropped in four cases against her since May.

At about 8:15 p.m., Callum allegedly caused about $520 in damage to her boyfriend’s car by hitting it repeatedly with a rock; she allegedly broke the windshield, a windshield wiper, and a side mirror. The car’s owner came outside because of the commotion, which led to an argument, and Callum allegedly scratched him.

Post Miranda, Callum reportedly admitted scratching the victim and throwing rocks at him.

Callum, who is pregnant, has been arrested four times since May, and a sworn complaint was filed against her in a fifth case. She was arrested on May 7, charged with domestic battery, and released on her own recognizance; charges were dropped on June 5.

A sworn complaint was filed against her for domestic battery on August 10; that charge was dropped on October 11.

She was arrested on September 30 for causing over $1,000 in damage to a relative’s car with a hair spray can. She was released on her own recognizance, and the charges were dropped on November 2.

She was arrested again on October 5 for domestic assault. Bail was set at $5,000, but her lawyer later convinced a judge to release her to a residential mental health treatment program for pregnant women. She was released with a requirement to stay in the program on October 20, and the charges were dropped on October 23, ending the requirement to stay in the program.

Callum has a juvenile criminal conviction but no adult convictions. Judge Susan Miller-Jones set bail at $4,000 but ordered that she may be released on her own recognizance to the same residential mental health treatment program for pregnant women, once a bed is available.
