Jacksonville woman charged with damaging romantic rival’s car with sledgehammer
Staff report
GAINESVILLE, Fla. – Liana Monique Dupree, 47, was arrested yesterday and charged with felony property damage for allegedly hitting a romantic rival’s car with a sledgehammer in July 2023.
On July 28, 2023, an Alachua County Sheriff’s Deputy responded to a call about property damage at Pinewood I apartments (4400 NW 39th Avenue). The deputy reported that the leaseholder on the apartment had been “balancing a relationship between two women,” Dupree and the victim, which caused “animosity” between them.
The deputy reported that Dupree arrived at the apartment and began causing a disturbance by “excessively” knocking on the front door and banging on the windows. The leaseholder opened the door and Dupree saw the victim inside the apartment. Dupree allegedly took a sledgehammer from the bed of the leaseholder’s truck and yelled, “I’m going to break your window” before hitting the trunk of the victim’s vehicle with the sledgehammer, causing a large dent.
The deputy reported that a neighbor saw Dupree hit the vehicle with the sledgehammer.
A warrant for Dupree’s arrest was issued in September 2023.
Dupree has been charged with property damage over $200 with a previous property damage conviction, a felony. She has one felony conviction and 17 misdemeanor convictions, including three convictions for property damage in Duval County. Judge James Colaw set bail at $10,000.

“Stop, Hammer time!
You can’t touch this
You can’t touch this
You can’t touch this
Break it down!
Stop, Hammer time!
Every time you see me
That Hammer’s just so hype
I’m dope on the floor”
She obviously has anger management issues.
The judge should have held her until she completed a 1000 hour course; at a minimum let the victim hit both her hands with that sledgehammer.
Breaking rocks in the hot sun. She fought the law and the law won! I see a road crew in her future. Did the cops beat her with an ugly stick?
Dude got junkies going to war over the 🍆 🤣
