A Florida mom has been charged with inciting a 500-person riot at a skating rink after calling on her daughter’s friends to “tear this bitch up” when her kid’s birthday party was canceled, according to police.
Stephanie Pedroso, 36, was arrested on Thursday for allegedly sparking the chaos at Astro Skate in Brandon in May after the rink canceled her booking for an “after hours birthday party” for breach of contract, according to the Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office.
Pedroso made the reservation on May 14 for the May 17 event for her daughter’s birthday, but failed to secure off-duty deputies for the party as agreed upon in the contract, leading to the cancellation.
Pedroso was issued a refund, cops said.
However, an outraged Pedroso posted an expletive-filled rant on her daughter’s social media account encouraging the girl’s friends to show up at the rink anyway.
“For y’all, if y’all still go up there, tear the f–k out of them. I’ve got some money for y’all, and I’ll pay y’all ass,” Pedroso said in the video, according to police.

Typical…..rules, signed contracts, commitments, they don’t apply to me….I’m entitled !! What, you’re going to hold me to the contract? I’ll show you!!!
