Speaker 1: Taco had a little snaff foo trying to get back
Speaker 1: from vacation. I gather he went to the keys from
Speaker 1: this text link that are a loop or group that
Speaker 1: was sent to me last night. And I guess he
Speaker 1: flew and got stuck in traffic and missed his flight yesterday.
Speaker 1: So he says he will be making his way back
Speaker 1: today and back on the air tomorrow, is my understanding.
Speaker 1: And I'm sure he'll have some stories to share. I
Speaker 1: have some for you in idiotology. Let's begin in New Zealand.
Speaker 1: All right, how many times you've been through this. You
Speaker 1: go to the airport, you're dropping someone off, and that's
Speaker 1: a special someone, and you know you want to embrace
Speaker 1: and say goodbye and hugs and kisses and all that stuff, right,
Speaker 1: But you know how it rolls here in the US
Speaker 1: if you're just dropping them off, man, you get out,
Speaker 1: get the luggage out, and you better be on your
Speaker 1: way pretty quick, or they're they're moving you along right
Speaker 1: in those drop off zones. It's just how it is
Speaker 1: a little bit different in New Zealand. And you're getting
Speaker 1: quite the attention on some social platforms after an airport
Speaker 1: in New Zealand posted a sign that prohibits prolonged goodbye hugs.
Speaker 1: There's a sign of the Dunedin Airport that reads quote
Speaker 1: maximum hug time three minutes for funder farewells. Please use
Speaker 1: the car park parking lots. Maybe last minute love session right, Oh,
Speaker 1: they give you a full three minutes in New Zealand
Speaker 1: to say you're goodbyes. There's just no quick peck on
Speaker 1: the you know, lips are cheeking goodbye, say fight I
Speaker 1: miss you. Uh three minutes the long goodbye, right, it's
Speaker 1: very generous, very generous. Tennessee police officer in Tennessee caught
Speaker 1: stealing from crime stoppers. A police officer stealing from crime stoppers.
Speaker 1: You know, crime stop is a great organization and it
Speaker 1: encourages you know, information to flow to help solve crimes.
Speaker 1: And a lot of times if you provide pertinent information
Speaker 1: that pays off, you could, you know, see a small reward.
Speaker 1: And I actually I know a couple people who have
Speaker 1: been given a little bit of money for you know,
Speaker 1: witnessing something and sharing what they know. So this has
Speaker 1: been around for a long time now. I'm surprised this
Speaker 1: hasn't happened before, but it sounds pretty straightforward as to
Speaker 1: what this now former officer was doing. Her name, Erica
Speaker 1: Hutchinson reportedly stole more than eighteen thousand dollars from crime
Speaker 1: Stoppers between August of last year and February of this year.
Speaker 1: Pretty straightforward deal, excuse me. Her job was to sort
Speaker 1: through the crime Stoppers database, send pertinent tips on investigations
Speaker 1: that come in to the investigators, and then one knows
Speaker 1: helpful tips qualify for rewards. She'd make sure the payment
Speaker 1: went through to the tipsters. Right before she did, though,
Speaker 1: she would switch the destination for the reward to an
Speaker 1: accomplice's bank accounts. Yeah, they were working together. She would say, Oh, okay,
Speaker 1: so and so gave us this tip their due, however
Speaker 1: amount of money, I'll just send it to my friend's
Speaker 1: bank account. Then they're gonna split the profits and we're
Speaker 1: doing that for a while. Was she caught by crime stoppers. No, No,
Speaker 1: she was actually caught by the public and the tipsters
Speaker 1: who thought they were receiving rewards. And after several reported
Speaker 1: to police, Hey, you know, we're told were to get
Speaker 1: in a reward for this information. You know, it never came.
Speaker 1: They started looking into it and it didn't take them
Speaker 1: long to figure out that Erica had been rerouting the
Speaker 1: money to a different account. She pleaded guilty was sentenced
Speaker 1: to six months in prison plus two years of supervised release,
Speaker 1: and she's we also gonna have to pay about twenty
Speaker 1: two thousand dollars in restitution. And of course she's resigned,
Speaker 1: which I'm sure that's nice because she would have been
Speaker 1: fired obviously for this stealing from crime stoppers. Don't let
Speaker 1: her bad actions deter you from you know that? Otherwise
Speaker 1: good program. And finally there's this. We go to Bedford,
Speaker 1: Indiana at the super the Walmart supercenter in Bedford, where
Speaker 1: police responded to an incident of a three year old
Speaker 1: being injured by a monkey inside Walmart. A sixteen year
Speaker 1: old Java macaw monkey in Walmart. Yeah, this was someone
Speaker 1: I'm saying, this is their emotional support animal and apparently
Speaker 1: had the paperwork to provide when police arrived to check
Speaker 1: on this injured three year old who was scratched up
Speaker 1: by the monkey. You know, you a young kid sees
Speaker 1: a monkey, they're gonna want to, you know, approach the monkey,
Speaker 1: and especially you know at Walmart. You all trying to
Speaker 1: visualize this right now. It's very easy too, isn't it,
Speaker 1: Because some of the things you've seen at Walmart's this
Speaker 1: is not hard to should buy any stretch, so the police.
Speaker 1: It turns out the kids going to be all right.
Speaker 1: The mother of the kids, so yeah, he'll be fine.
Speaker 1: But we just wanted to make sure this was, you know, documented.
Speaker 1: It should be noted that the paperwork that supposedly supported
Speaker 1: the emotional support animal what in this case, you know,
Speaker 1: a macaw monkey, the sixteen year old macam monkey. The
Speaker 1: paperwork for the emotional support animal in question was actually
Speaker 1: registered to a dog for rocking with us for three
Speaker 1: decades one on one one w j R. Hart, Orlando's
