In a bizarre turn of events that sounds like a plot twist from a Hollywood movie, a DJ known as Joseph Eta, or DJ Fizz, has found himself at the center of a scandal involving over $82,000 in stolen funds from the Rancho Cordova Little League. Hired for a spring fundraiser in 2025, it seems Eta wasn’t just focused on spinning tunes—he allegedly spun off with a rather hefty amount of cash intended for the league.
Parents were left shocked when they learned of the missing money—not from the league itself, but through social media and police announcements nearly a year later. This lack of direct communication has raised eyebrows and left many wondering about the league’s transparency. Some parents even expressed doubts about the treasurer’s oversight after such a significant sum went missing without detection.
Fortunately, although this financial hit was significant, league officials assured families that it wouldn’t affect players, teams, or season operations. They report being financially stable and are actively working to recover the lost funds. Yet, in a community built on teamwork, it’s hard to shake off the feeling of betrayal. When it comes to money, it’s clear that “trust but verify” should be the motto—even in youth sports!
