Naked Woman at Dallas Airport Stabs, Bites, Screams in Manic Rampage

A woman caused mass panic inside a Texas airport after stripping naked and allegedly launching into a violent spree of biting, stabbing, and screaming. Caught on camera, her breakdown unfolded in front of stunned travelers as she sprinted through terminals in nothing but her birthday suit - leaving injured victims and shocked witnesses in her path.

Naked and Dangerous at Dallas-Fort Worth Airport

On March 14, 2025, Samantha Palma unleashed chaos at Dallas Fort Worth International Airport, when she stripped completely nude and reportedly went on a violent spree during what officials described as a “manic episode,” according to TMZ. Shouting “I speak all languages” and calling herself the goddess Venus, Palma allegedly stabbed two people with a pencil and bit a restaurant manager while parading through the terminal without clothes, as reported by the Daily Mail.

According to reports, the attack escalated when Palma grabbed a pencil and stabbed the manager of an airport restaurant in the head and face as he attempted to restrain her. She then allegedly bit him on the forearm, breaking the skin and leaving visible bruising. Witnesses watched in horror as the frenzied woman shouted incoherently and continued her rampage unchecked until police intervened.

Caught on Camera: Chaos at the Gate

Viral video footage captured the full scope of the disturbing outburst, showing Palma strutting naked through the airport while allegedly breaking a display television, flinging water, and gyrating her hips in front of stunned travelers. At one point, a bystander attempted to offer her a coat, prompting Palma to squeal and bolt, yelling profanities as she continued her chaotic march.

Witnesses filmed as she shouted incoherently and pranced through the terminal, seemingly detached from reality. Her rampage ended when police found her behind an emergency door at Gate D1, covered in blood that investigators later confirmed was not her own.

Once in custody, Palma admitted she hadn’t taken her medication, though authorities have not disclosed the specific prescription. She also claimed to be traveling with her 8-year-old daughter, though there have been no further reports on whether police took the child into custody or if anyone else was accompanying them.

Mental Health Crisis or Public Threat?

Authorities confirmed that Palma was in the middle of a manic episode and considered a serious threat to both herself and those around her. She was taken for a mental health evaluation immediately after the incident.

On Reddit, one user who claimed to have law enforcement experience weighed in: “In law enforcement we called it Excited Delirium. Dealing with people like this have incredible strength while under the influence and feel no pain. Very dangerous this situation,” he said, as reported by the Daily Mail. “Having been in a position where I’ve had to restrain naked people before, it definitely adds a whole new layer of discomfort and anxiety to a situation,” the user wrote, pointing out why bystanders and even responders may have hesitated to intervene.

Palma is now facing aggravated assault charges involving a deadly weapon and was initially detained under a mental health hold.
