Taylor Frankie Paul, the Mormon MomTok influencer who went viral last year after sharing her “soft-swinging” experiences, was arrested last week, officials said.

Paul, 28, was charged with three misdemeanors: assault, criminal mischief and domestic violence in the presence of a child, according to Salt Lake County Sheriff’s Office records. She was booked by Herriman, Utah, police at 1:56 a.m. on Saturday, records show.

Records also show Paul was released hours after her arrest. Representatives for Paul did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

A spokesperson for the Herriman City Police Department confirmed Paul’s jail booking to NBC News.

“Following her jail booking, detectives received additional video evidence related to this case that resulted in the case being referred to the Salt Lake County District Attorney’s Office for screening of felony assault charges against Ms. Paul,” the spokesperson said. “This evidence also suggests that during the incident, Ms. Paul’s minor child was injured by an action of Ms. Paul. Subsequently, our investigators are also screening a misdemeanor charge of reckless child abuse with the District Attorney’s Office.”

The police department also shared a news release about the incident on Twitter.

The Herriman City Police Department said in its statement: “Once the screening process is complete with the District Attorney’s Office, the case will proceed through the criminal justice system in either the Third District Court or the Herriman City Justice Court, depending on the decisions rendered during the screening process.”

Paul is a popular TikTok influencer with 4 million followers who rose to prominence as part of the Mormon mom community on the platform.

Last May, she went viral after revealing in a TikTok livestream that she and her then-husband, Tate Paul, were in a soft-swinging group with other MomTok creators, meaning they swapped sexual partners with other couples, but Paul said they agreed to not “go all the way.” Paul said that she “did step out of that agreement,” leading to her divorce and a few lost friendships.

In recent months, Paul has been open about her mental health struggles following her divorce, the soft-swinging fallout and a pregnancy loss she experienced with her boyfriend last year

A Utah TikTok star with more than four million followers is facing charges after a domestic violence incident at a home in Herriman.

Taylor Frankie Paul, 28, was arrested and charged with one count of assault, one count of criminal mischief and one count of domestic violence in the presence of a child.

In addition, Herriman police said they are screening a misdemeanor charge of reckless child abuse following additional video evidence brought forward in the case.

A probable cause statement for Paul states that a neighbor called the police after they heard screaming and yelling coming from the home.

When police arrived at the home and began questioning Paul and the victim, police observed Paul “lunge at the victim and began pushing/hitting him.”

The individuals were separated and police identified Paul as the aggressor in the situation.

During an investigation, police learned the situation stemmed from an argument in which Paul “hit the victim multiple times and threw several household objects at him, including metal chairs and a wooden child playset,” court documents state.

The victim, who was not identified by police, complained of elbow pain following the incident, arresting documents state.

Paul’s child was in the home at the time of the argument and police said in a press release that a minor child was injured “by an action of Ms. Paul.”

Further details about the injury and the condition of the child were not made available.

Herriman police also explained that Paul’s status as a social media influencer will have “no bearing or impact on the investigation or outcome of the case.”

“All allegations of domestic violence are investigated thoroughly and in accordance with state law and established criminal justice best practices to protect victims and ensure accountability,” a statement reads in part.

Vokas pleaded guilty in December to murder, involuntary manslaughter and aggravated burglary in an agreement with county prosecutors who withdrew other charges including two counts of aggravated murder. The sentence imposed by Judge Michael Holbrook was the maximum possible on the charges.

A sheriff’s deputy testifying at the sentencing hearing said authorities called to the Prairie Township home after a 911 hang-up call saw the defendant shoving items in her purse and then trying to flee out the back door. In her purse they found the victims’ ID cards, a checkbook and a bag of coins, he said.

Entering the home, deputies found Blanc unresponsive in the first-floor bathroom with six stab wounds to his head and neck and Castore unresponsive in the basement with stab wounds and a rope tied around her head, neck and body, he said.

Vokas, who cried throughout the hearing, apologized to the victims’ families, saying she was not in her “right state of mind.” Defense attorney Francisco Luttecke said his client had an abusive childhood and was dealing with mental health issues and using drugs.
