- Kathy Denman posted a TikTok video alleging staff barred her from leaving until she provided her driver’s license and credit-card information.
- Cafe co-owners Kimberly and Jenna Campfield issued a statement denying any detainment, stating no charges were filed and they sought Denman’s details solely for insurance purposes.
- Surveillance footage obtained by NJ Advance Media appears to show the child striking the table with her foot before it shattered on the floor.
- Denman later confirmed that she and her family accepted the cafe’s apology and expressed a desire to move forward peacefully without further comment.
