Local police have cited a woman from Strongsville for trespassing and disorderly conduct on Feb. 28 after yelling outside St. Albert the Great Parish about "how corrupt it is."

According to a report, it was the second day the woman went to the same location and was asked to leave the premises for causing a disturbance.

Wanting to Talk to Someone About How Corrupt the Church Is

A caller told the police officer that the woman had come inside, yelling that the church was corrupt. 

Cleveland.com reported that the caller feared for her safety and hid behind a closed door after telling the unwelcome woman to leave. The first encounter with that woman was on Feb. 27. 

She was spotted in a black Chevy Cruze on Royalton Road. The officer discovered that the woman had a revoked driving license. The officer also detected that the woman was drunk as she was reeking of alcohol. 

Although she was driving with a suspended license, she was nevertheless irritated that she was stopped and questioned, per the report. 

She even denied that she had drunk anything intoxicating. Still, the officer discovered and revealed an unopened six-pack of beer inside her car. 

The woman was detained for drunk driving after failing a field sobriety test, during which she stumbled.
