The man accused of claiming to be missing Aurora boy Timmothy Pitzen is not even 14-years-old is Brian Rini, 23, and has an extensive criminal record in northeast Ohio.
How did a male who is 23 years-old with extensive criminal history pass the initial screening that he could even be a 14 year-old boy? How was the male suspect not immediately recognized as a possible scammer involved in a hoax when he was known to have an extensive Ohio criminal history of false police reports, and was released from Ohio prison to probation only one month before his Timmothy Pitzen hoax? Was there no fingerprinting initially investigated on April 3, 2019? The initial false report broke out of the local scene in Newport, Kentucky — just across the Ohio River near Cincinnati, Ohio — and quickly spread nationwide. Someone at the local police level had to have a strong suspicion about the veracity of the Brian Rini story. Did the police fail to provide an early alert to the media about the possibility of a hoax, or did the media ignore police caution about the story?
