Tory Lowe opens the hour exposing the growing problem of online romance fraud, breaking down how scammers manipulate people emotionally and financially. Tory plays a powerful AARP clip detailing a woman’s experience being defrauded—and how quickly trust can turn into loss. The conversation continues as callers share their thoughts and concerns, before one caller delivers a jaw-dropping story about her mother falling victim to a scammer. The details reveal just how deep and calculated these fraud schemes can be.

The hour closes with troubling updates out of Racine, where police continue searching for a second suspect in the attack of a pregnant woman. Tory and Andrew also react to a statement from the Common Council president claiming he was “inappropriately touched,” questioning what that actually means and why clarity matters in moments like these.
