She did commit a misdemeanour and now she should be brought charges against.

Laxmi Vrecea question regarding the usage of "Does"Use "does" (or "do" or "did") to emphasize your affirmative response to a contrary negative claim or to emphasize some other contrast. Note that it is almost always a response or a contrast introduced by but. You don't normally start a conversation with "emphatic do".
