Before I set up this video, let me preface it by saying that this is slightly NSFW (which is what makes it a lot of fun). As much as Anthony Bourdain's "fisting a Samoan" quip.

Anywho, my Mom tells this story of a police-led sting operation in my hometown which led to the arrest of the kidnap-for-ransom gang. The gang is led by a certain "Fred", who, by most reliable accounts, is the mastermind. He, of shockingly close acquaintance to the family, apparently selects the gang's next target by "fingering" them. I do a bit of Katie Couric vs. Sarah Palin in the interview, but my mom delivers all the punchlines.
