Sup, you beautiful bastards. Welcome back to the Philip DeFranco show. Buckle up. Make sure you're

subscribe because I'm splitting $10,000 across 10 lucky subscribe beautiful bastards this month, and let's just jump into it.

Imagine your child gets kidnapped. As a parent, there are a few things that are more horrifying than that prospect.

And then imagine you get a video of your child like this mother in Spain just recently did. I can't show you the video

because YouTube will suppress it. But in the video, it shows this woman, her 30 year old daughter,

she has a blindfold on, she's crying, she has a knife to her throat. And in the video, she's saying,

mom, they took me. I don't know why because I've done nothing. She says she's been beaten, she's been deprived of food, it's spine-chilling. But they're ultimately saying her captors won't let her go until her mother pays around $50,000

and please, please don't tell the police or they're going to kill her.

But we're talking about it on the Philip DeFranco show, which means with an 85% likelihood,

this is fake. It turned out to be fake.

According to the authorities, the woman in the video staged the whole thing to extort cash out of her own mother with four accomplices, fake blood, and an Oscar-worthy performance. In fact, it was such a good

performance, the mother actually falls for it and withdraws the $50,000 to pay the ransom. And it turns

out, reportedly, she had already made three prior payments totaling $45,000 after receiving menacing

letters threatening her daughter's life. But then when the bank sees this $50,000 transfer, they alert the authorities to begin investigating and figure out what's going on

within 24 hours. Quickly tracking down the daughter and her co-conspirators at a slot machine casino,

enjoying that sweet, sweet extortion money. With them now having all been arrested and facing

charges that could land them in prison for several years. So because the main point of this story is, don't trust your children, those little psychopaths. I'm kidding. I don't think there's actually

a lesson to be learned here except this one daughter is a crazy horrible person. Also, I can't even

imagine what this poor mother's going through. One of my sons lied to me about eating a donut and

literally no one else could have eaten it and that fucked me up for a week.

I was like, it's who, Trey?

Like it was an Entiman's chocolate donut, so in his position I probably would have done the same thing, but still.
