Paris St. John, the daughter of Kristoff St. John and former WBC super welterweight champion Mia St. John, was recently apprehended by the police at a WinCo supermarket in Boise, Idaho. According to an affidavit that was reviewed by TMZ, she had taken off her clothes and was found meditating in the nude. Law enforcement officials were informed about a naked woman who was praying in public, which led to St. John’s arrest. After being taken into custody, she attempted to escape and was subsequently charged with indecent exposure, resisting arrest, and escape.
Mia St. John shared some distressing news about her daughter via Twitter. She expressed her fear of losing another child and feeling like she was losing her mind. Despite this, she also mentioned taking things one step at a time to stay positive.
Back in 2014, her son, Julian St. John, committed suicide just two weeks into rehab. In response, Mia spoke out against the medical center, claiming that they provided inadequate treatment for her son’s severe substance abuse issues. She accused the staff of neglecting him, which led to his tragic death after two hours of being left unattended. Fans have come out in support of Mia, and they shared their condolences. Moreover, they sent prayers for her daughter’s health to get better as well.
