A Florida woman was recently arrested after committing two of the exact same crimes she was previously accused of and out on bond for, law enforcement in the Sunshine State say.

Kristin Ann Mittelstadt, 35, stands accused of six charges including fleeing to elude, knowingly driving with a suspended or revoked license, driving with a suspended or revoked license as an habitual offender, fleeing with reckless disregard for the safety of persons or property, possession of methamphetamine, and possession of drug paraphernalia, according to Polk County Jail records.

The Polk County Sheriff’s Office took stock of the repeat nature of the defendant’s charges with a tongue-in-cheek press release.

“Mittlestadt told deputies that she fled because she knew that if she got caught, she would likely be going to jail for a long time,” the press release reads. “She may have thought that due to the fact that she was already out on bond for Fleeing to Elude and Knowingly Driving While License Suspended/Revoked.”
