[4] A woman belonging to the National Guard, Josneidy Nayari Castillo,[5][6][7] threw Jiménez to the ground, hit, kicked and beat her with a helmet, then had her transported to a government facility where she was supposedly abused further.

[4] Following the incident, Jiménez was accused of resisting arrest, assaulting the officers, property damage, inciting disobedience and was ordered to report every 30 days.

National Guardsmen were firing tear gas and shotguns at protesters, attempting to disperse them when Jiménez shouted from her balcony to neighbors to begin recording their actions.

[1] On 24 June 2014, she spoke at a demonstration called the "March for Independence" in Altamira organized by the Movimiento Estudiantil, where individuals such as María Corina Machado, Freddy Guevara and many other Venezuelans gathered to demand the release of students who were arrested.

[5][10] At the gathering, she also called on Venezuelans to show a large number in protests so "national government authorities are aware of rejection felt by the population".
