EXCLUSIVE

Elizabeth Smart‘s kidnapper who was just released spent her first night of freedom going off the rails … so much so, cops were called … TMZ has learned.

Wanda Barzee spent Wednesday night at a Salt Lake City hotel and, according to a guest staying in an adjacent room, Barzee went on a religious tirade. We’re told she was wailing religious scripture at the top of her lungs.

The guest also says Barzee was loudly praising Joseph Smith, the founder of Mormonism. 

A law enforcement source tells us a call came in to dispatch from a guest at the hotel, but when officers tried to call the complainant back, no one responded. They did not send a unit to check it out.

We’re told there was also a call to police for a media disturbance outside the hotel — and officers did respond to that — asking reporters to back away from the property.

Barzee was released from prison Wednesday after serving 15 years. 

Not long after Barzee’s release, Elizabeth reacted on Instagram saying, “Without [a] doubt the past few weeks have been a rollercoaster of emotion … May we all remain vigilant in watching over our families, friends, and community from anyone who would seek to hurt or take advantage.”
