A li begats a lie. That's what my mama, Miss Ruthie,
always says. Basically, if you tell a lie, you got
to tell another lie to cover it up. Today, the
crazy train is headed out to where we go in Krina, Italy, Italy.
Oh wow, andiamo touti We're going to Italy. What it means,
let's go everyone where a seventy year old man has

(00:25):
spent the last fifty three years collecting disability because he
was blind. Oh wow, at least that's what he said.
But let's say, if you're collecting disability for being blind,
you might not want to do things that people would
assume that you can see. If someone throws a ball
at you, maybe don't catch it. If somebody says, hey,

(00:48):
can you operate these power tools, maybe don't operate the
power tools if you're claiming to be blind. They set
up an investigation and they found out that this man
could actually see for fifty three years that he was
collecting disability trying to play it off that he was blind.
You collected over one point one million in payments. There's

(01:11):
a statute of limitation so they can only recoup from
the last five years. But that is crazy. Also dedication.
I mean, GIVIVI an oscar? Come on?

Speaker 3 (01:21):
Is acting okay? I wonder what gave it away? If
they were like, hey, catch and he cut the ball
or something.

Speaker 2 (01:28):
Oh no, he didn't see the arrest coming though, Take
it easy. I was blinded by money, That's what he
was mad. Don't fake a disability people, because you're always
gonna get caught. No, stop it on. Oh that is
not okay ever, And that is your daily crazy news story.
