Beaumont Pepper-Spray Case: Woman Speaks Out About Blindness

BEAUMONT, Calif. (KABC) -- A woman, who says she was blinded when a police officer used pepper-spray at close range, is speaking out for the first time.

Monique Hernandez has been blind since the Feb. 21 incident and doctors say she'll probably never see again.

She was undergoing a field sobriety test in her Beaumont neighborhood when there was a dispute, and Beaumont Officer Enoch Clark allegedly fired his pepper-spray gun in her face at close range. Hernandez says her deepest regret is that she can't see her 10-year-old daughter.

Self inflicted by her own bad behavior maybe this will be a lesson for the daughter she allegedly can't see.
