According to MyFoxDFW:

“Lucille Baller” is Lt. Regina smith’s alter ego.

In a YouTube video, Smith airs her complaints with the department, is seen dry firing her service weapon, and threatening anyone who messes with her as she tries to make a name for herself producing rap music.

Her husband Senior Corporal Norman Smith was killed in the line of duty in 2009.

“She was communicating her grievances about being a widow in the department and her treatment to that effect,” said Chris Livingston, Smith’s attorney.

Smith has been on administrative leave since November. Dallas Police Chief David Brown tacked on an additional five days because of the negative feedback the video brought the department.

“Lt. Smith sincerely apologizes if the comments disappointed anyone or if they were taken in the wrong light,” said Livingston.

While Smith gets to keep her job, five other officers were fired for various reasons.
