A Utah woman is facing charges of sexual battery after she allegedly assaulted a teenager at a steakhouse in St. George. A viral video on TikTok showed the woman, identified as 48-year-old Ida Ann Lorenzo, arguing with the 19-year-old and her group of friends in the lobby of Sakura Japanese Steakhouse over the length of her skirt.
Lorenzo, who claimed to be a government employee, threatened to call Child Protective Services on the teen because her skirt was too short. She claimed she could see the woman's asscheeks and pubic hair.
The teen's friends then point out that she's 19.
Lorenzo called the police and told the dispatcher that the teen's skirt was "hiked above her vagina and butt." During the call, she admitted to pulling down the teen's skirt because there were children present, and the restaurant staff failed to do anything.
After a video of the altercation was posted on TikTok, Lorenzo called the police again to report that her name was posted, along with the insinuation that she committed a crime. She then claimed that because she works for the state of Utah, the video was a "threat to her life."
Officers explained to Lorenzo that her actions were enough to warrant a sexual assault charge.
The teen, whose skirt was pulled down, also called the police to report that she was sexually assaulted by Lorenzo.
After reviewing the evidence, officers filed charges of sexual battery against Lorenzo and took her into custody on Wednesday (April 23).
