On November 21, 2025, officers with the Minneapolis Police Department responded to a 911 call reporting a person in crisis at a residence in the area of [ADDRESS REDACTED] in Minneapolis, Hennepin County, Minnesota. Upon arrival officers learned that the person in crisis was PRIESTESS JAMIE-LYNN BEARSTOPS; [DOB REDACTED] (herein Defendant). Police met with the reporting party who was the Defendant’s mother. Defendant’s mother stated that the Defendant didn’t live there and she wasn’t welcome to stay because she was throwing and breaking things all over the residence.

Police attempted to calmly speak with the Defendant to better understand the situation. However, the Defendant made comments that did not make sense and was generally hostile towards police. Officers determined that the Defendant needed to be transported to the hospital for a hold. EMS were called to the scene. As the Defendant struggled with police officers, she began spitting several times in their direction. On one occasion, the spit struck a police officer (herein Victim). Paramedics provided medication to the Defendant to get her to calm down, and she was taken by ambulance to the hospital.

Defendant was previously convicted of Assault 4 – transferring bodily fluid on 5/6/2025 in both court file 27- CR-24-27992 and ••-CR-••-••••. She was on probation for both of these files at the time of this offense. Defendant is not currently in custody.
