89. One Finger Too Far: Anna Ayala & the Infamous Wendy's Finger Chili
Listen now
Description
On March 25th, 2005, Anna Ayala erupted in a scream. She had found a human finger in her Wendy's chili. Throughout this episode, Rachel replaced the word "finger" with "circus peanut" as it is something that is equally disgusting but does not make her feel light headed to talk about. Anna was quick to hire a lawyer, however, many began to question the legitimacy of her claim. Turns out, she had scammed before and was likely scamming again. She conveniently decided to stop pursuing legal action against Wendy's, but seeing as they had lost an estimated $2.5 million dollars it was clear Anna was not getting off easy. The police began to investigate where this finger had come from. In a weird turn of events it was suspected the finger may have come from an incident where a woman was bitten by a spotted leopard? Listen now to hear the twists and turns on this roller coaster of a case.
