HOWARD, Wis. (WFRV) – A Green Bay, Wisconsin woman allegedly made a bomb threat after her ex-fiancé decided to go ahead with a party for their wedding day, without her.

According to the criminal complaint, on June 18 around 6:45 p.m. authorities responded to Vandervest Harley Davidson in Howard for a “suspicious situation.” The owner of the Harley store said that 32-year-old Amy Rizo allegedly made a Facebook post about going “to bomb and shoot up the building.”

Authorities spoke with Rizo’s ex-fiancé and he said they got into an argument and she called off the wedding. The ex-fiancé did not want to lose the money for the food, DJ, drinks and venue so he made the decision to have the party anyway. The party was at the Duck Blind Olde 41, a banquet hall located on the upper level of the Harley Davidson building.

The ex-fiancé’s sister said that the day of the party Rizo was texting her saying “she won and she would leave his house and she was taking everything.” She later went to the hotel where Rizo was staying and Rizo reportedly got into her face and became verbal.

Rizo stated “she would kill him before he marries anyone else,” according to the complaint, which added that Rizo was believed to still be intoxicated from the night before. When the ex-fiancé’s sister threatened the call Child Protective Services, Rizo allegedly said she was above the law because she was a social worker.

While at the party someone allegedly showed the sister a Facebook post by Rizo saying “I’m glad you all are having a great time at Vandervest because there is a bomb under it.”

The ex-fiancé did not specifically see any of the Facebook posts about the bomb threat and believed that Rizo was incapable of “blowing up a building.”

A bartender for the party apparently saw the Facebook post, WFRV reports, and went to tell her boss.

Rizo requested a lawyer at the jail and was released on $1,000 cash bond.

This story reminds me of one of my oldest “friends” (that I’ve been voluntarily no-contact for five years next month, yay) who is a classic clinical narcissist. While she’s never fabricated a bomb threat (though it’s not out of the realm of stupid shit she might try), she has a long history of making sure that every event is about her. Even if the event has nothing to do with her. And by event I mean something as small as girls’ night out at the Mexican restaurant to the wedding of one of our dear friends.

So in this post my mind went straight to “narcissist” and her vehement need to make sure that EVERYTHING is about her. So she makes threats she has no way (due to her just not being smart enough) of carrying out, but succeeds in ensuring that all the threats would supersede the event itself and instead lead to her being the center of attention...even negative attention.

What matters in this present case is that she gained control over the event and forced the guests (who were there to celebrate with the guy and NOT to discuss her) to HAVE TO think about and discuss HER.

This guy dodged a legit bullet by deciding to not marry her. The next guy might not be so lucky and could end up with his beloved pet in a stockpot on the stove.
