Taylor Frankie Paul asked why she was charged with reckless child abuse in footage from her 2023 arrest following a domestic violence incident with ex Dakota Mortensen. "I saw I was being charged with reckless child abuse. What's the difference between reckless child abuse and child abuse?" Taylor, 31, asked a detective during a follow-up visit to her home one week after her arrest in February 2023, as seen in bodycam footage obtained by Us Weekly. The detective explained to Taylor that reckless child abuse occurs when the child is harmed accidentally rather than intentionally.
