A Tennessee Wendy’s restaurant manager has been arrested after admitting to cops she tied her neurodivergent co-worker to a kitchen grill – and bizarrely claimed it was part of a TikTok stunt. Michiko Burton, 19, now faces up to a year in jail after she was charged Thursday over her bid for views. Initially Burton, who has since been fired from her role at the Murfreesboro fast food restaurant, wasn’t arrested as the neurodivergent worker wasn’t injured – despite allegedly wrapping garbage bags around his leg and tying him to a grill.
