Duval County recently opened a brand new $350-million courthouse, but a woman going through a dramatic divorce decided that it needed a final touch that only a $5 can of spray paint can bring.
Audrey Dostie, 35, was apparently unhappy with her divorce proceedings and decided to cover the building in broken hearts, the letters “AA,” and a message to her judge.
Dostie’s estranged husband had recently filed a restraining order against her claiming domestic abuse. The pair is also fighting over custody of their son.
