Police chase! Craig Jones releases bodycam footage of Gordon Ryan’s wife being arrested

5 days ago 2

Gordon Ryan’s wife Nathalia Santoro, who is a professional grappler and regular feature in many of his Brazilian jiu-jitsu (BJJ) instructionals, is facing some legal issues.

Santoro, who has gone 1-2 at WNO and competed in other organizations, has been arrested two times within a week after traffic-related incidents.

Police records detailed how Santoro was driving a green Porsche SUV without license plates, “swerving within its lane” and “tailgating vehicles while flashing its high beams at them to move out of the way” before accelerating quickly past the speed limit.

According to the officer, Santoro did not pull over during a routine traffic stop, and a high-speed pursuit occurred. A police chase with speeds exceeding 120 mph was said to have went on for about 15 miles, and ended with officers using “low-speed interventions” to stop the vehicle.

Police reportedly found two loaded firearms in the vehicle, which added to her arrest charges.

Less than a week later, Santoro was again arrested after a car crash. She reportedly admitted to driving about 90 mph in a 55 mph zone, where she eventually “struck and snapped a utility pole, and came to rest roughly 30 feet later.”

Santoro was charged with driving while intoxicated (DWI), unlawful carry of a weapon, reckless driving, and evading arrest with a vehicle.

Craig Jones releases bodycam footage of Nathalia Santoro’s arrest

Adding another later to the issue is Craig Jones, who has personal issues with Gordon Ryan and Nathalia Santoro stemming from alleged abuse and assault from back when they were teammates on the original Danaher Death Squad team.

The BJJ star turned CJI promoter made a public record request on Santoro’s case and released bodycam footage of Santoro’s arrest.

In the video posted on Jones’ YouTube page, Santoro is seen in a police chase that had the cops ram her green Porsche and draw their firearms to make her exit the vehicle.

While being questioned by officers, an agitated Santoro told police offers that “I have a f—king nice car and I drive fast.”

The officer noted how nice cars are “easier to control” but she was “swerving.”

Santoro then repeatedly failed to follow instructions during sobriety tests and was subsequently arrested.

Gordon Ryan’s wife says ‘I’m allergic to gay people,’ threatens to punch police officer

Later in the video, Nathalia Santoro is seen in the police station, with an officer trying to get her blood drawn. When asked if she was allergic to antiseptics, Gordon Ryan’s wife randomly responds, “I’m allergic to gay people.”

“To who?” the confused officer responds.

“To gay people,” Santoro repeats.

“Nothing else? Okay.”

Santoro was then seen on video threatening the officer.

“You have three seconds until I am literally going to punch you in the face,” she said.

Santoro has since posted bond for each of her two cases.

Gordon Ryan has remained silent on his wife’s arrests, but has repeatedly taken shots at “Crooked Creg” again after he posted this video. While most of his posts are about right wing politics since he retired, Ryan’s latest rant about Craig Jones involved agreeing to fight “on sight.”
