As stunned travelers watched and filmed the outburst, Palma threw water, danced wildly, shouted profanities, and hurled her phone at airport screens—damaging a display TV and smashing a monitor. She eventually ducked behind an emergency door, where security personnel found her covered in blood that wasn’t her own.

At one point, a bystander handed her a coat, prompting her to scream and flee while yelling expletives at strangers. Palma later told police she was “in a forest,” wanted “to be with the flowers,” and was “going to heaven” after having “come from hell.”
She also told officers she identified as Disney princesses like Ariel and Pocahontas and was traveling with her 8-year-old daughter, claiming they had arrived in a car she “manifested.”
While speaking with authorities, Palma admitted she had skipped her medication that day, although the specific treatment remains undisclosed. She is currently being held on mental health grounds and faces charges of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon.
No details were provided about her daughter’s condition or whereabouts following the incident.
