TikTok star fined paltry sum for hitting golf ball into Grand Canyon

Facing a potential fine of $5,000 and six months in prison, TikTok star Katie Sigmond only paid a fine of $285 for hitting a golf ball into the Grand Canyon, an amount that didn’t sit well with online commenters who didn’t believe the fine fit the crime.

In October, Sigmond posted video online showing her hitting the golf ball into the canyon near Mather Point; the club flew off the handle and also went into the canyon.

Subsequently, she took down the video, but it was preserved on Reddit.
