Timothy Pitzen, a six-year-old boy from Aurora, Illinois, disappeared in May 2011 after his mother, Amy Fry-Pitzen, took him on a multi-day trip to zoos and waterparks before taking her own life in a Rockford motel. In her suicide note, Amy claimed that Timothy was "safe" with someone who loved him and that he would never be found. Despite extensive searches and investigations by law enforcement, including retracing Amy's steps and analyzing her last communications, Timothy has never been located, leaving behind a haunting mystery. Over a decade later, the case remains unsolved, with no confirmed sightings of Timothy and no conclusive evidence of his fate. His father, James Pitzen, continues to hold out hope that his son is still alive, as investigators maintain an open case, using advanced technology and updated images to try and locate Timothy. The disappearance remains one of the most perplexing missing person cases in modern history, a painful story of loss and lingering uncertainty.(commercial at 8:46)to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.com

This is a Grave Talks CLASSIC EPISODE! When Hunter and Jenny Scott bought their dream home in Rockford, Alabama, they thought they were starting a new chapter — until the house started writing one of its own. Shadow figures emerged from dark corners, unseen forces lashed out, and a violent history began to reveal itself piece by chilling piece. This wasn't just another haunting — it was personal. As paranormal activity escalated, even Harper Lee, author of To Kill a Mockingbird, became intrigued by the home's murderous past. What had happened within its walls that drew both the living and the dead? And why did it seem intent on driving its new owners away? In this episode of The Grave Talks, we sit down with investigator Kim Johnson, who helped uncover the dark secrets buried beneath the Rockford home and guided the Scotts through one of Alabama's most disturbing true hauntings.

On the morning of May 13, 2011, 6-year-old Timmothy Pitzen was seen checking out of the Kalahari Resort in Wisconsin Dells with his mother, Amy. But he was never seen with her again. The next day, Amy was found dead in a motel in Rockford, Illinois. She left behind notes saying Tim was safe and would be cared for, but that no one would ever find him. Fourteen years later, Tim's whereabouts remain unknown, and his family is still searching, hoping to bring him home. 6-year-old Timmothy Pitzen was last seen on the morning of May 13, 2011, checking out of the Kalahari Resort in Wisconsin Dells with his mother, Amy. Later that afternoon, Amy made phone calls to her family, and Tim spoke to his uncle. That was the last time anyone confirmed he was with her. The next day, Amy was found dead in a motel in Rockford, Illinois. In her final notes, she said Tim was safe and would be cared for, but that no one would ever find him. To this day, Tim has never been located. At the time he disappeared, he was 6 years old, 4-foot-2, about 70 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing green or blue shorts, a brown t-shirt, white socks, and carrying a Spider-Man backpack. If you have any information about Tim or his disappearance, please call NCMEC at 1-800-843-5678 or the Aurora Police Department at 1-630-256-5516.

Jimmy Kimmel is currently on indefinite leave from his late-night show after a string of events involving remarks he made about Charlie Kirk, a response from the FCC, and a decisive call from Disney leadership. This all unfolded quickly and, frankly, explosively. Brendan Carr of the FCC went on Benny Johnson's podcast and said Kimmel's comments were some of the “sickest stuff” he's heard — and strongly implied that the FCC could take action against affiliate stations airing the show. That's not subtle, and even if Carr didn't spell out a punishment, the intent was clear enough to light a fire.What wasn't initially emphasized — but I think is even more relevant — is what Carr said at the end of that podcast appearance. He laid the pressure squarely on affiliate stations, reminding them that it's their licenses that are under the FCC's purview. And it wasn't long before two affiliate groups, Nexstar and Sinclair, pulled Kimmel from their airwaves. That's a big move. Deadline later reported that Disney's Dana Walden personally told Kimmel his show would be preempted. Sources say Kimmel refused to apologize, and Disney feared that letting him go further might make the controversy even worse.Politics Politics Politics is a reader-supported publication. To receive new posts and support my work, consider becoming a free or paid subscriber.Disney's version, delivered through Deadline, painted it as a measured decision — that they were protecting Kimmel from himself. But the reality is, affiliate pressure likely had more to do with this than the FCC ever did. Nexstar, for example, owns affiliates in places like Hartford, Augusta, Rockford, and Sioux City. These aren't New York or LA. These are markets where a majority of the viewership is conservative. Nexstar and Sinclair didn't just blink. They jumped — and demanded an apology and even donations to Turning Point USA before they'd consider letting Kimmel back on air. That's not just a request. That's an ultimatum.Capitol Hill responded almost immediately. Eric Swalwell wore a Jimmy Kimmel hat on CNN. Jasmine Crockett called for his return. The concern from Democrats is clear — they see this as a chilling of speech, a federal agency leaning on a private company to silence a critical voice. And Kimmel has long been one of the most visible anti-Trump figures in mainstream media. This isn't out of nowhere. It's part of a longer arc — one that started when his monologues became Claptor-heavy political salvos, and even his own writers started peeling off.Here's what I think. Carr's comments went too far. I've listened to that podcast more than once. Maybe he meant to be more cautious, but it didn't land that way. When you hold a job like FCC commissioner, your words carry weight — and in this case, they were taken very seriously. That said, I also don't think this was a one-man takedown. Kimmel has probably been a thorn in the side of these affiliate stations for years. This may have just been the opportunity they were waiting for.These affiliate networks serve a lot of red-leaning districts. That's just reality. And when Kimmel's show becomes a lightning rod, they have every incentive to bail — especially when broadcast TV isn't the financial powerhouse it used to be. ABC and Disney might be saying they want Kimmel back on air, but I think they're daring him to quit. This could easily end with a quiet settlement and a new direction for the network. Twenty-two years is a long time. Maybe too long for a show that's increasingly out of step with its audience — or at least the parts of it that keep the lights on in places advertisers care about.If this had happened in 2017, I think Disney would have fought. They would have leaned into the resistance branding, defended Kimmel publicly, and gone head-to-head with the FCC. But the landscape has shifted. Those same resistance-aligned outlets that thrived post-2016 have been struggling for attention ever since 2024. Maybe this isn't a cave to authoritarian pressure. Maybe it's just chasing a different audience — one that wants less fire and more quiet. Either way, the message is clear. Kimmel's position isn't as solid as it used to be. And neither is the appetite for that kind of voice on network television.Chapters00:00:00 - Intro00:04:17 - Jimmy Kimmel00:31:57 - Update00:32:50 - Eleanor Norton00:34:01 - Tariffs Head to Supreme Court00:35:33 - Erika Kirk00:38:06 - Interview with Michael Cohen01:42:11 - Wrap-up This is a public episode.
