A Real Live Witch Hunt: Naples Police Trying To Find A Witch Who Defrauded People Out Of $100,000
It’s not every day you hear about a real live witch hunt, but that’s what’s going on right now down in Naples, Florida.
It might be a far cry from Salem (or Halloween), but this is not a drill. There’s a witch running around in the Sunshine State right now, and authorities are trying to find her before she dupes anyone else.
The Naples Police Department announced that they are currently on the hunt for this witch after she allegedly defrauded people out of $100,000.
They don’t have photos of her, but they have released several sketches of what she looks like and they’re hoping someone recognizes her.

This witch advertised her witchcraft services on the local Hispanic radio, as well as in Hispanic newspapers.
She also posted flyers around East Naples and Golden Gate in different stores, including some laundromats.
“The media ads were published in December 2020, leading to the in-person scam beginning mid-January 2021 and ending mid-March 2021.”
