Florida Woman Takes Sibling Rivalry to a Whole New Level (Because of Course She Did)

Ah, Florida. The land of sunshine, palm trees, and family disputes that escalate way too quickly. This time, we’ve got a Lake Worth woman who decided that a simple argument with her elderly sister just wasn’t dramatic enough.

Meet Vikki B. Cappola, the latest contestant in Florida’s Most Unhinged Family Feuds. According to the Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office, this sisterly spat took a violent turn when Cappola allegedly:

  1. Whacked her wheelchair-bound sister in the head with a cellphone (because why use words when you have technology?).
  2. Pushed her sister’s wheelchair into a dresser (adding a little bumper cars action to the mix).
  3. Went full WWE and started choking her (because nothing says “I love you” like attempted strangulation).

But wait—it gets better. A neighbor, hearing the victim’s cries for help, rushed in like a hero in a Lifetime movie, only to have Cappola allegedly yank their hair for daring to interrupt her performance.

The best part? The neighbor declined to press charges (probably because they’ve seen enough Florida drama to last a lifetime). Meanwhile, Cappola is cooling off in the Palm Beach County Jail on an $11,000 bond, where she’s been ordered to stay away from her sister and weapons (because apparently, that needed to be specified).

Moral of the story? If you’re going to fight with your sister, maybe just steal her Netflix password like a normal person.
