ORLANDO, Fla -- Police have arrested a mother after WESH 2 News aired video of a fight between her daughter and another teen.
Video sent to WESH shows two teen girls walking to the middle of a field. The girls then swing at each other and pull one another's hair. They eventually fall to the ground and continue fighting.
Throughout the fight, they are egged on by several teenagers and an adult.
Orange County Corrections Department
Sandra Padilla Miranda is seen in a booking shot provided by law enforcement authorities.
WESH 2 News showed the video to Orlando police, who said the adult woman in the video is Sandra Padilla Miranda.
Police believe she is the parent of one of the girls. She was arrested Thursday afternoon.
'Bite her'
"(She) basically set up a fight for her daughter,” said Sgt. Vince Ogburn of the Orlando Police Department. “The mother arranged the fight. Unfortunately the girls agreed to have this fight." Ogburn said Padilla Miranda could be heard on the video in Spanish telling her daughter to "hit harder" and "bite her."
Ogburn said Padilla Miranda told investigators she had no way of stopping the fight.
"Someone was holding her back as the reason why she couldn't stop the fight, and clearly you can see in your video, that no one was attempting to hold her back at all," Ogburn said.
Padilla Miranda told investigators that she set up the fight to stop the girls from fighting at Boone High School.
Neighbor talks
While there was no answer at Padilla Miranda's house Thursday, a friend of the family, Cely Bruno, shared her thoughts about the fight.
"I got a kid myself, you feel me? And if I see my kid on the floor getting beat while there's mad kids out there, God knows what could happen to my daughter. I would have been like, 'Go ahead, do your thing,'" Bruno said.

idiot
Totally agree!!!
And possibly a little retarded.
I doubt that even the "Short Yellow Bus" would be willing to carry this wonderful mother. Its just sad.
reddixie, totally agree. I mean, look at this logic:
A fight to end fighting. Guess that's like using water to stop a flood. WTF?
They should throw the mother in prison and post flyers with her picture in every ghetto in the country. This mentality is commonly shared from parents to children in lowlife communities. Make an example out of her, these people are ANIMALS
I hope that ICE picks her up and deports her....
Extremely stupid thing to do. Double stupid to record it on video.
Lady, your breeding priveleges have been revoked.
jakester-
calling this woman an animal is an insult to animals.

I'm a grown up child of the ghetto lowlife communities (Detroit) and my parents would have never allowed something as inappropriate and ignorant as this woman did. That person has bad judgement but the people living in the ghetto are not all animals. There are a lot of GOOD people raising families in the ghetto because that is where they can afford to live and don't start the whole welfare argument because we were NOT raised on welfare- my Dad is retired AF, owned his own trucking company and my mother stayed home to raise us. There are whole neighborhoods in the ghetto with blue class WORKING families that have morals, values and integrity.
Idiot is actually an insult to those that are idiots - I think that trash would be more appropriate.
Just re-read the quote for proof.
Lovely woman. She should shave her moustache, though.
The mother looks like she was beat by an ugly stick herself.
Trash
Was Mama on something? She looks strung out. And I'd just as soon recognize her involvement with a chemical elixir than say a sane, sober adult arranged a fight with her own kid.
She's got the intellect of a box of hair.
Jakester, are you from the gheto? Did you get your arse kicked while growing up in the gheto? You seem to know an awfull lot about the gheto from your computer desk. I know, I know, google has answers for every question and everything. But I don't recall googling low-life or animals and getting ghetto. Jakester maybe, but certainly not ghetto.
Only one question about the fight, did clothes come off? And that mug shot is not of a female, I'm almost 99% certain its a dude.
lets give more foodstamp and welfare to these people.
no more of these socialist crap please.
Nice necklace, though...it looks a doorknob on a string
calm down "JUSTAMOMA" and "the punisher", I never said no good people are from the ghetto. Nor did I say they are ALL animals that would be stereotyping a whole community (which is ignorant). I also never assume someone got beat up in the ghetto just because they lived in a major city and seen a LARGE number of lowlifes teaching kids how to be low lifes. Did you read my post even? I said its COMMON, If its not common explain why ghettos have higher crime rates!
Like it or not it happens in ghettos more so then suburbs, farmland , backwoods or anywhere else PERIOD
thepunisher says "did clothes come of?" and I'M A LOWLIFE? You sound like a real sicko they are teenage girls you sick jerk!!!
Why were they fighting?
Lack of education and a ghetto mentality.
What's better than being in a fight? It shows how awesome you are. Just like getting arrested, going to jail, getting stabbed/shot, stabbing/shooting someone else "just 'cuz"......
*rolleyes*
LMAO @ MB. Don't suppose you're in Cd'A?
Darrel B. Yep!
Parenting FAIL.
"Padilla Miranda"? 'nuff said.
At least for once it wasn't something like "Shaniqua Mamalukaboobooday Hightower".
Brutal racism. No excuse. Duly reported.
You act like I care. This is a non story, therefore all replies (including mine) are non-posts. You "reporting" this, is like reporting that I spit on the ground.
I hope you feel like you accomplished something!
It's only racism if it isn't true. Look at the stats on race on race crimes. Either way it was wrong and all those involved need to go to jail. And these kids are our future, God help us all.
I have learned that the phrase "Stereotypes are stereotypes for a reason" is generally true. I have a rather racially diverse family, and all stereotypes have rung true so far. Guess which one has multiple baby-daddies and lives in the projects? Even myself, I am a typical German stereotype: Hostile, Cold, Methodical, and so on...
Hey VOX, report me too please.
Nobody likes a rat fink snitch!
Criminals love to say "rat fink snitch." No matter how macho they act they are all scared little kids. They are afraid of going to jail or paying for their crime.
I remember when I was a kid - the bullies would start to cry and whine like a spoiled brat when you said you were going to get a teacher.
Lucky for the criminals real people obey the law that criminals hide behind once they are caught.
Why does this need to turn racial? There have been stories like this before with white, black, and spanish kids.
Hell, remember the white parents who videotaped their kids fighting and the mother told them (on the video) if they didn't do it, she would beat them?
So let's stop the disparaging racial crap. Stupid parents come in all shapes and colors.
...or her sistas - "LaTrasha" and "Latrina"
Trashy.
"...I got a kid myself, you feel me...?" - kinda says it all, doesn't it?
Does it say that the lady had a child by means of asexual reproduction, and would like the reporter to touch her? ... otherwise i'm confused.

I read that as
'I am laughing within myself at the propensity to violence demonstrated by the audacious mannerism of these combatant individuals.’
‘Are you following my astute line of reasoning?’
Now I'm really confused, but laughing though.
You might be a redneck if......
Classy 'hood'lum bario, these classy idiots are doing everything they can to improve it and themselves everyday.
The whole "city" of Orlando is a bario.
yea...thanks to employers such as Walt Disney World and all the area hotels that employ these illegal aliens and who fight any attempts to enforce our immigration laws, thus, making the problem worse
She's illegal. huh. I missed that fact.
nobody bothered looking for that fact, some people just assume by the spanish surname and the dispicable nature of the behavior...it's what racists do.
Yesterday, I was trying to eat. Two little boys, about 9 and 11, were trying to ask me a stupid question, so I told them to just let me eat. Their mother told me I was rude. She said that they were just trying to ask me a question, but a dozen people were standing around that they could have queried too. I told her that she was teaching them to be rude, but they all just started fighting with me. Though for a fact there was not one single thing for me to help them with. They were all white.
I'd put good money on it....
and if she is illegal...do you think MSNBC would publicise it? Hah!
fgh-- they were curious kids. Why did you not answer the question? Did you not have the answer?
Not really sure what his point is anyway. I doubt any answer he/she/it gives would make sense to anyone, let alone a 9 and 11 year old.
Other than being a crappy parent what law is being broken? Don King did this throughout his career and made enough to comb his hair once I believe. Seriously, this is what happens when you don't educate your population. That's what the Republicans want a bunch of dumb broke consumers.
Not sure from the law side, but, jeez, way to blame someone else for another's faults. ALWAYS someone else's fault. Society, racists, bigots, whatever, take your choice, but it's NEVER, EVER the perpetrator's fault.
joker-
how does politics come into play. go take your libbie hate to a more appropriate story.
Why is it against the law for the mother to let her daughter fight another girl? Better to let them duke it out, then someone getting shot. This crap is why our courts are so clogged up.
To joker 69 you need some schooling why would a demo or rep want anyone broke. They want you to make 8 dollars an hour so they can get 3 dollars an hour from you idiot.
@ Joker
Take your political crap to a different vine. This isn't the place for it. To answer your question, child endangerment seems pretty fitting here. You feel me?
child endangerment comes to mind.
...yeah, umm. no. It's not like they sign an agreement not to shoot each other that gets notarized and filed in the hall of thug records to be presided over and enforced by the council of responsible citizens of the hood.
the way it works is: they fight, then someone comes back with a gun. Fighting resolves one thing: the issue of who's a better fighter. It doesn't resolve the issue of who's a better shot.
Congratulations! Post #7 found a way to make this a political issue. Is your life really that constrained that ALL things are political?
Damn right they are!
Even if the event has no possibility of being political, someone will post "Its Obamas fault!".
LOL You just gotta laugh at it.
I thought everything was Bush's fault? When did that change, nobody told me it changed. Damn been blaming the wrong person.
Next DVDs being sold at 4am infomercials: "Ghetto Rat Girl Fights"!!!
The way to combat this is easy:
-- Tax Cuts
-- Reduce economic opportunities (Free Trade Job Outsourcing, a la Clinton with NAFTA and Obama w/ South Korea in 2011)
-- Reduce educational opportunities / reduce education system to a series of tests - discard any attempts at teaching critical thinking / socio-political skills
-- Reduce social programs and embrace a mentality of the Jungle (Dog eat Dog)
Yeah, that's the ticket, let's give these dregs MORE money. I'm SURE that'll fix the problem.
But you may have a point, we could just re elect Bush and send these pugilists to invade a sovereign Middle Eastern country.
and the political tripe keeps being spewed forth. This has NOTHING to do with anyones political affiliation. Not everything is red or blue. Sometimes is just plain old black and white "bad parenting". The next post will probably tell us that its OK as long as a Republican girl was being beaten up.
Brutal racism. No excuse. Duly reported
Looks like 4 conservative solutions to me.
Complete parental failure. Ignorant.
See fights should be allowed, and let them be recorded that way there is no dirty fighting. Since people these days have so many anger issues, they should be able to iron out their differences through fighting, maybe then these kids will grow some balls and not resort to other violence.
"Two Girls Enter, One Girl Leaves!!!"
I don't want to live in a country where all the girls have balls. This ain't Thailand.
Nice movie reference ... however I'm thinking the new Mad Max movie is going to stink.
And DenverRight303, atleast teaching them to fight is faster, easier, and therefore cheaper than teaching them how to talk things out.
Girls with balls...LOL, you know what I meant though!
Agreed, parenting fail. The better thing to do would be to hand her over to a martial arts instructor. She could learn defensive martial techniques, self-control, self-respect, and how to walk away from a fight. Telling her it's okay to solve her issues with her fists is a one-way ticket to jail. What's that mother going to say when her daughter assaults someone and gets five to ten? "I didn't raise her that way, it's the other person's fault for making her mad"?
"She was a good person, just starting to turn her life around, yada, yada...".
Everyone knows this, page 10, subsection A of the societal parasite handbook.
This is Orlando for you. It's trashville coated with a sheen of transiency. You know how some people who have never been to NYC think New Yorkers are rude? But then when you go there you find out most of the people are really great? Yeah, well Orlando is the melodramatic version of that - you get there and everybody is just as bad as you imagined. Store clerks there will treat you like "how DARE you come buy something at MY counter!" As far as the drivers are concerned, nobody else is on their highway and if you are they will make sure you aren't welcome. if you like nightclubs that reek of vomit, this is the place.
I've been to most big and larger cities in the USA, and I have to say that by far Orlando is the worst of them. The only reason it's such a big vacation destination is the tourist areas are very insulated.
On our local radio station, we had a bit about outlandishly BIZARRE arrest reports called: "Florida, not like the rest of us!".
Is it on youtube? I love to watch females fight!
Can watch some of it at link below.

And please do not have children.
""I got a kid myself, you feel me? And if I see my kid on the floor getting beat while there's mad kids out there, God knows what could happen to my daughter. I would have been like, 'Go ahead, do your thing,'" Bruno said."
Did anyone actually understand this?
"If you can't dazzle them with brilliance, baffle them with bullshet."
For the record.......I AM a believer...................
You made me laugh so much just now with your post.........................LOL
We don't need to go to a comedy club for a good laugh...................just read what the average american citizen writes on some of these posts............:-)
Talk about being 'out there'............LOL
You're a believer? I think you want the story on the high school girl fighting for our constitutional rights.
Hope she enjoys her jail cell with 'Bertha'
This piece doesn't give the details of what led up to the fight, but I personally don't think, verbal encouragement aside, the mother is in the wrong. I had been tormented by a bully in school for years. I decided it was going to be "me or her." I knew that if I didn't stand up for myself, I'd never be left alone. One day after school, with my parents permission, I confronted the bully at her home. I waited until after school to fight this girl so it wouldn't affect my school record. My adult aunt went with me to the girls home, not to egg me on but to ensure that it was a fair fight, as the bully had older siblings that would be home. My aunt wanted to make sure I only had to fight the bully, not the whole family. I remember that day like it was yesterday. The fight ended up in a draw, but the girl left me alone after that. My parents and aunt did not want me to fight the girl, but they knew it was something I had to do to survive the last few years of high school. Was my aunt wrong in standing by while we fought? I don't think so. She didn't break any laws and neither did this mother.
Similar situation... I was in the 7th grade and was being bullied by this mean fat girl. I didn't wait til after school though. One day she was bullying me in the hallway as usual but this time I just punched her right in the face. She was so shocked she didn't even hit me back. The school did not suspend me because students confirmed that I was "defending" myself. This chick was a known bully. She never picked on me or my friends again.
You were two children acting your problem out - in lieu of any real intelligent adult intervention. It is really just a little silly to say that what you did is just like the mother staging a fight with her child.
I was just wondering 'WTH is wrong with kids anymore?!' (Yes, I'm having an Old Fart moment....) Then I read this.
::eyeroll::
Guess that answers my question.
I remember this happening in the play grounds all the time so other kids would not jump in but it was your friends and brothers doing it and it was between boys. You feel me! I think I even saw this on Leave It To Beaver ;-}
All im saying is that if it had been in a ring nobody would have said anything. You have been cheering them on yourself.
And they live among us and breed!
So if someone is punking your child your going to teach them to walk away & talk it out?! What do you do if that doesn't work, let me guess get the parents involved? That just escalates the situation. This mother is clearly wrong for setting up the fight however I have told my children defend yourself when necessary & if that means getting physical so be it. This entitlement generation needs the get their a** whipped maybe there wouldn't be as much bullying crap going on!
This trashy broad exemplifies what Low life, Low class, brain dead, gutter trash "thinks and acts like".
There are dozens of rational, common sense and very legal ways to permanently control any situation like this,s but for those concepts escape the Low life, Low class, brain dead, gutter trash but they require a strange thing commonly known as THINKING and actually using your mind.
This Low life, Low class, brain dead, gutter trash and her children are doomed to living their lives like this forever.
...a friend of the family, Cely Bruno, shared her thoughts about the fight. "I got a kid myself, you feel me? And if I see my kid on the floor getting beat while there's mad kids out there, God knows what could happen to my daughter. I would have been like, 'Go ahead, do your thing,'" Bruno said.
So we should expect to see this lady in the news shortly for the same thing. Animals.
