She’s trouble and she knows it.
The woman who went viral for all the wrong reasons over the holiday period has an ever growing track record of misbehavior.
Miya Ponsetto, whom the Internet quickly dubbed “SoHo Karen” after she falsely accused a Black teen of stealing her phone, had a second DUI charge last year while on probation for her first one.
Ponsetto, 22, was busted in Ventura County on Oct. 3 for DUI, resisting arrest and obstructing or delaying a peace officer or EMT, according to court records obtained by TMZ.
Five days earlier, Ponsetto was placed on probation after pleading no contest to a drunk driving arrest from May in Los Angeles.
Ponsetto may have violated her probation with the second bust, according to a letter sent to Los Angeles County.
Last February, Ponsetto and her mother were also charged with public intoxication and battery after sparking a melee at the Peninsula Hotel in Beverly Hills, according to a police report of the incident.
Ponsetto has been lying low in California since her Dec. 26 confrontation with Keyon Harrold Jr., 14, — the son of the jazz trumpeter by the same name — at the Arlo Hotel.
She was seen on a viral video accosting the teen, whom she wrongly accused of stealing her phone.
The incident has prompted calls for Manhattan prosecutors to charge Ponsetto.
