A Nathalia Santoro Arrest Video has gone viral after being released by Craig Jones. The footage shows Santoro — a Jiu-Jitsu practitioner and Gordon Ryan’s spouse — being taken into custody following what authorities allege was a high-speed pursuit in Austin, Texas.
It’s a perfect storm for grappling social media: bodycam chaos, a Porsche SUV, and Jones dropping it into the timeline like a grenade.
How The Nathalia Santoro Arrest Video Landed On B-Team’s Channel
Jones releasing the Nathalia Santoro Arrest Video immediately made it bigger than a local arrest story. Jones and Ryan have competed before, but their modern rivalry has largely lived online — and Jones has always been at his most dangerous behind a keyboard and a “post” button.
Regardless of who uploaded it, the footage is tied to serious allegations laid out in Travis County court filings, along with a second incident days later.
What Police Say Happened In The 120mph Austin Pursuit
According to affidavits filed in Travis County, the October 16, 2025 incident began when an officer attempted to stop a green Porsche SUV driving without license plates in North Austin. Authorities say the vehicle failed to yield, leading to a pursuit of roughly 15 miles that reached speeds reported above 120 mph.
The Nathalia Santoro Arrest Video begins after officers use “low-speed interventions” to stop the SUV. Officers approach with weapons drawn and order Santoro out. Once she’s outside, she refuses to answer multiple questions and pushes back on the idea her driving was dangerous.
“It’s because I just like to drive fast.”

During the exchange, she references Jiu-Jitsu — first saying she was going to “train” before correcting herself to say she was going to “teach.” After a field sobriety evaluation, she is shown being taken into custody. The footage continues at the station during the booking process.
The Charges, The Firearms Allegation, And The Second Crash
Court records tied to the October incidents list multiple charges against Santoro, including alleged driving while intoxicated (DWI), evading police with a vehicle, reckless driving, and unlawful carry of a weapon.
In the first incident, police reportedly found two loaded firearms with chambered rounds inside the vehicle.
Days later, a separate report describes an October 22 crash on FM 1826. Authorities say Santoro admitted she had been traveling around 90 mph in a 55 mph zone because “the roads were empty,” left the roadway on a bend, and struck a utility pole with enough force to snap it.
Bond was reportedly set at $3,000 for each case, and court records indicate she posted bond shortly after the first arrest. Those records also list conditions restricting her from driving without a valid license and insurance.
The Backlash Keeps Growing
The Nathalia Santoro Arrest Video keeps spreading because it doesn’t just show an arrest — it shows an escalation. During booking and a blood draw, Santoro is shown becoming increasingly agitated and making threatening remarks.
“You have 3 seconds until I like literally going to punch you in the face.”

The clip has also drawn heavy criticism over an offensive remark Santoro makes when asked about allergies, referencing gay people. That moment pushed the conversation beyond “BJJ drama” into a broader backlash about conduct and accountability.
Legally, the next steps hinge on how the cases move through the court process. Reporting tied to the court timeline indicates a pretrial appearance was scheduled for mid-December, with her lawyer appearing on her behalf while she traveled internationally.
