Initially ordered to anger management, Bell reoffended in August 2025 by assaulting a pub security guard with her phone and kicks. While the prosecution pushed for jail time citing her pattern of gratuitous violence, Bell’s defense argued her actions stemmed from perceived disrespect toward her mother and racism. The court ultimately fined her $300 and imposed a 12-month community corrections order, requiring alcohol and anger management treatment — a verdict that closes this chapter but leaves questions about accountability and rehabilitation.
