ZONE 7: Procedural Chaos: Inside the Mangione Hearing That’s Putting Police Training on Trial

On December 3, in Sebastian County, Arkansas, the sheriff's office was called to conduct a welfare check on Charity Beallis at the family mansion in Bonanza. Police fail to get a response from inside the mansion, so two workers escort officers into the home. Officers locate the body of Charity Beallis and two children. All three appear to have gunshot wounds and are sent to the Arkansas crime lab in Little Rock for autopsy. Charity Beallis's and her twins' murder comes one day after attending a final divorce hearing with her ex-husband, Dr. Randal Beallis. Randy and Charity Beallis marry in 2015 and have twins, a son and daughter, in 2019. Charity Beallis files for divorce and full custody of the couple's twins, as well as an order of protection. In the final divorce hearing, Dr. Randy Beallis is awarded joint custody of the children. 10 years of marriage ends with Randy Beallis charged with aggravated assault on a family member, third-degree domestic battery, and two counts of third-degree endangering the welfare of a minor. Randy Beallis stands accused of causing physical harm to his wife and mother of his children by choking her. Beallis is carted off to jail, while Charity Beallis makes plans to file for divorce. No charges have been filed, and Dr. Beallis is innocent until proven guilty.

The president of "D4vd" David Anthony Burke's touring company is grilled by a deputy district attorney in front of a grand jury. The grilling focuses on why he didn't call the cops after the body of Celeste was discovered in his client's car. A grand jury is hearing evidence in the death of Celeste Rivas Hernandez. Robert Morgenroth, the general manager of Mogul Vision, D4vd's record label, is also the president of Zara Brothers Travel, D4vd's tour company. Reports say Morgenroth testifies all day before the L.A. grand jury. At one point, with people in the hallway, Morgenroth comes out into the hallway and talks to his lawyer so loud others can hear. He says, referring to Beth Silverman, the deputy D.A. presenting the case, "She was very pushy on why I didn't call police." Also, a female witness in the Celeste Rivas death case faces arrest after refusing grand jury testimony in the D4vd murder investigation. Reports suggest LAPD's Robbery Homicide Division is considering D4vd a suspect in the alleged homicide of Celeste.

House Democrats release more than 150 never-before-seen images and videos from Jeffrey Epstein's private island, offering a peek inside the estate, which is at the center of his sex trafficking allegations. The images show empty bedrooms, a wall of masks, a dentist's chair, a chalkboard with cryptic words, and more. The release comes just days before the Justice Department's deadline to publish its Epstein files under a new law signed by President Donald Trump. As Epstein's documents are released, the more questions and trouble Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor faces. Stripped of all titles, instructed to vacate the royal lodge, and under threat of private prosecution, if more incriminating materials are revealed, jail time could become a real possibility for the disgraced prince. Reports suggest there is more evidence to be released of Windsor’s crimes with Epstein, but many believe those records will never be released.

New details emerge in Anna Kepner's alleged murder during a family court hearing regarding Thomas Hudson’s emergency petition for custody of the 9-year-old daughter he shares with Shauntel Hudson. Hudson is concerned for his daughter's safety under Shauntel Hudson and Christopher Kepner’s care, due to their failure to closely supervise their older children during the cruise Thomas didn’t want the children to take. Shauntel, Anna's stepmom, confirms her 16-year-old son is the only suspect in Anna’s murder, her younger brother Connor having been cleared of any potential wrongdoing. Hudson’s lawyer says they are unsure if the FBI will press federal charges or hand the potential murder case over to state authorities. Shauntel also testifies their 16-year-old son is staying with her relatives after his hospital release from psychiatric observation and claims he will NOT be returning to the home she shares with Christopher Kepner and the remaining three children, even in the event the FBI concludes their investigation without charges. Shauntel’s oldest son, Andrew, testifies his mother allowed him to drink alcohol in the past, a story corroborated by Shauntel’s stepmother, Sonya Ziske. Ziske witnessed Shauntel's pour herself and both of her sons, 16 and 14 at the time, a shot of liquor.

Investigators in Virginia have announced a breakthrough in the nearly 35-year-old murder of 18-year-old Laurie Ann Powell, finally identifying the individual responsible for her death in 1988. Police have arrested a suspect in a 1997 Long Island homicide that was once considered potentially linked to the Gilgo Beach serial killings, providing long-awaited clarity for a decades-old investigation. Two members of the West Virginia National Guard were shot while on duty in Washington, D.C., in an incident that occurred close to the White House, raising questions about security for personnel assigned to federal locations. An internal affairs review has concluded that the 2023 death of a 19-year-old Rutland, Vermont police trainee could have been prevented, citing failures by supervising officers to adhere to department pursuit policies.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
