Crime stories with Nancy Grace.

Tammy Stefan called 911 last Saturday and told the dispatcher someone just tried to kidnap her

daughter. I do have a load of 45 with me. Please let me off. There's no you can hear Stefan passing

along a description. Dozens of deputies searched for the man and the neighborhood was on high

alert. People purchased dogs. People didn't want family members potentially to come to their homes

as a fear of what might happen. They didn't maybe one even leave their home. But today,

detectives say the entire report was a fake. They say this video shows the mother of four,

buying a notebook and other things she planted as part of the kidnapping story. Stefan is a fitness

competitor and personal trainer and according to investigators, she was trying to frame a business

partner who she blamed for swaying votes that kept her from winning an online fitness contest.

She even went so far as to have her daughter urinate herself to make it be more believable

to law enforcement. The sheriff's office says Stefan is a sick person who not only put fear into

an entire community, but costs the sheriff's office thousands of dollars for the man hunt.

Detectives say even Stefan's husband was fooled because he also thought the kidnapping attempt

was real. What a fitness instructor faking her daughters kidnapping, including forcing the

daughter to urinate on herself. Maybe I didn't understand what's happening, but sadly, I think I do.

You're hearing our friends at ABC Action News. That was reporter Eric Waxler. This is Crime Stories.
