Mom who was arrested at Disneyland blasts ‘pure lies’ as she describes ‘worst day’

A California mother who was hauled out of Disneyland in handcuffs as her crying daughters clung to her has blasted the ‘pure lies’ from iconic theme park. 

Jessenia Diaz, 26, of Torrance, was taken into custody at the happiest place on Earth on Tuesday for allegedly trying to sneak her children into the theme park.

She was charged on suspicion of trespassing after Disneyland officials claimed she tried to bring her two daughters, ages 3 and 4, into the park without paying.

But Diaz is now promising to tell her side of the story, as she threatened to sue the theme park.

‘What they say is pure lies,’ she posted on TikTok.

‘I’ll post the truth,’ Diaz promised in a TikTok video showing her surrounded by Disneyland security and Anaheim police officers in front of the Goof Sky School rollercoaster. 

‘I recorded the reason everything posted is full of lies.’

‘Social media is full of lies and hate,’ Diaz captioned the 10-second video, in which she described it as the ‘#worstday’

In another video posted to her TikTok from July showing her two daughters enjoying a carousel ride – in which she identifies herself as a ‘single mom’ –  Diaz responded to questions about the incident.

Some asked if her children were OK following the caught-on-camera arrest.

‘Yes. Thank you for asking,’ she replied. ‘Thank you for caring about my daughters.’

Other users, however, blamed Diaz for putting herself and her young children through the ordeal, to which she replied: ‘If u don’t know, respectfully u shouldn’t say anything.’

In response to another comment, Diaz threatened to file a lawsuit.

‘For sure suing,’ she wrote. ‘I have proof LOL. It’s all he said, she said.’

Diaz is accused of trying to sneak her children into the park without buying tickets for them – something officers said she has done at least four times in the past two months,  according to The Orange County Register.

Disneyland is known as the happiest place on Earth

She had reportedly claimed on Tuesday that her two daughters were under the age of three and could therefore get into the park for free – though the video of her arrest shows the girls are clearly older as they beg for help, KTLA reports. 

A one-day Disneyland ticket for children aged 3-9 costs between $112 and $160 – just slightly less than the $119-$169 guests aged 10 and up are charged. 

Disneyland officials offered to let her buy tickets for the children and stay in the park, but she refused, police allege.

Diaz then allegedly became uncooperative with Disneyland security, and they were forced to call Anaheim police.

She was ultimately booked into jail on suspicion of trespassing, and was released with a citation.
