Summary
You ever make a bad decision and immediately regret it? Cool — now imagine making one so dumb it triggers a full-blown Amber Alert, wastes $16,000 in emergency resources, and lands you in jail. Welcome to today’s episode of The Rizzuto Show, your favorite funny podcast where common sense goes to die and we’re just here to narrate the wreckage.
The crew breaks down a completely unhinged local story involving two women who reported a stolen Jeep… but decided that wasn’t urgent enough. So naturally, they added a completely fake missing child into the mix to “level up” the response. Because nothing says “great plan” like lying to law enforcement and forgetting they’ll probably ask for, oh I don’t know… proof the kid exists. No photos, no toys, no evidence — just vibes and a terrible idea. The result? A five-hour emergency search involving helicopters, drones, K9 units, and a whole lot of officers chasing a ghost.
And if you think that’s where the chaos peaks, buckle up.
We also get into one of the most frustrating stories you’ll ever hear — a guy in Hawaii who gets arrested for someone else’s warrant, proves he’s not the guy… and then gets arrested AGAIN because nobody updated the system. Eventually, he ends up locked in a psych hospital for nearly two years because his insistence that he’s not the suspect is labeled as delusion. Yeah. Let that sink in. The system fails so hard it basically gaslights a guy into being “crazy” for telling the truth.
Now he’s getting paid close to a million dollars, and the question becomes: is that enough? Would you take the money for two years of your life? The crew debates it the only way they know how — with sarcasm, questionable logic, and just enough realism to make you uncomfortable.
It’s another beautifully chaotic installment of a funny podcast that somehow makes you feel better about your own bad decisions. Because no matter what you did this week… you probably didn’t fake an Amber Alert.
And if you did — maybe don’t.

| 0:00.0 | So I was out of town Monday. |
| 0:05.2 | Anybody got an Amber alert on their phone? |
| 0:07.3 | Yeah, we talked about this yesterday. |
| 0:08.7 | It was wild story, dude. |
| 0:10.1 | We got it while we were on air. |
| 0:12.1 | Oh, really? |
| 0:12.6 | And all of us were talking about it. |
| 0:15.0 | Did you see the outcome? |
| 0:16.5 | Yes, I did. |
| 0:18.0 | Now, we got the update yesterday morning about it being a hoax, and maybe you got some more details now. Well, I was reading this this morning because I missed it. You know, obviously being out of town, I didn't get the alert. Yeah, somebody's in trouble now. Oh, two people are in trouble. Oh, okay. Two people. So it was a terrifying story. I don't know if you guys read this while you were on the air, but it was a five-year-old girl and a flower power shirt was supposedly trapped inside a stolen Jeep renegade and Afton. That's the story you guys got. Yep, that was the Amber Alert. Dude, it had like clothing descriptions, even the colors of the berets or barrettes. |
| 0:55.2 | Right. |
| 0:56.2 | All of it was a lie. All of it was a lie. All of it. Every single part of the story was a lie. Kid never existed. Whoa, every part. I was told that... The Jeep was actually stolen. Yeah, okay. So the Jeep was stolen. The part about the kid, complete fabrication. Right, right. And she fabricated because she wants her car found fast. |
| 1:11.3 | Is that what it was? |
| 1:12.3 | Because, okay, turns out the whole thing was a lie. |
| 1:13.9 | St. Louis County authorities have now charged two women, Ashley Collins, who's 29, and Kayla Williams, who's 31, for allegedly making up the kid to get a, there it is, faster response time. Wow. Whose idea? For this stolen car. |
| 1:28.2 | So the car was... There's a kid in it. Don't find it faster. The car was actually stolen. The missing child never existed. So there was no kid. Period. It was just a made-up kid. I mean, step two of that thought. Because I can understand, like, having that thought in a panicky moment. But then the second part is, oh, wait a second. |
| 1:45.7 | If they find the car, they're going to ask where the kid is. |
| 1:47.5 | They're not just going to walk away. Okay. So here's why these two women are dopes. Yes, that part of, we found the car. There's no kid. Number one. So the car was actually stolen. The missing kid never existed. An investigator smiled a rat almost immediately for a couple of reasons. |
| 2:02.8 | Number one. |
| 2:04.1 | Okay, ladies, do you have a picture of the kid? |
| 2:06.6 | Ah. |
| 2:07.8 | Could not provide a single photo. |
