Grimes was arrested back in September, outside of Sun Life Stadium, before the Dolphins played the Buffalo Bills. Police said she had refused to comply to an officer's orders and head butted a female officer.

Following her arrest, her husband spoke publicly about the incident saying, "I really don't want to talk about Miko. That will handle itself."
