The week begins with the nation still fixated on the unsolved murders of those four University of Idaho students. And as the mystery continues, every possible theory is being examined ... including the gruesome killing of a dog in the area just a few weeks earlier. Steven Fabian on whether there might be a connection. And now to the mass shooting in Colorado. It turns out the man suspected of murdering 5 people and injuring dozens more at a gay nightclub in Colorado Springs had been on police radar. He was arrested last year after allegedly threatening his mother with a homemade bomb. The charges were later dismissed but many are asking with that kind of red flag why did he have an assault rifle? Plus, there's another type of crime going on that you may not have heard of. It’s one where thieves are targeting wedding photographers to steal their pricey equipment. And the way they're committing these crimes is leaving both the photographers and the bridal couples on the other side of the lens, terrified. Ann Mercogliano reports. And speaking of weddings, it was a busy weekend for President Biden. He not only hosted his granddaughter’s wedding at the White House, but the very next day, he turned 80 making him the oldest Commander-in-Chief in American history.

The slaying of four college students is taking more twists and turns. Cops have reversed an earlier advisory that citizens needn't be worried for their safety...they also say two other roommates were home during the slayings, and they're searching local hunting shops for a particular kind of knife. And with the killer still at large and so much mystery surrounding the case...it's no surprise citizen sleuths are hard at work trying to solve the crime. Steven Fabian has more on that. Plus, It’s been more than a half a century since a White House family wedding was held at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue.

It's been more than three days since four University of Idaho students were found murdered and police are telling students and residents they should not be concerned for their own safety. But that’s hardly reassuring for the rattled community...or the victims' families who vow to find the assailant. And there’s lots of reaction to former President Trump's announcement he's running again for the White House, and observers note that Ivanka Trump was not at the event. The former first daughter was a key advisor during her dad's time in the White House, she now says she's done with politics. Plus, it's the latest explosive allegation to come from the first interview given by Casey Anthony since she her acquittal 11 years ago in her daughter Caylee's death. She's blaming her dad for the death of her daughter. George Anthony told us that he was “in contact with an attorney. That’s all I can say at this moment.” He has previously denied having anything to do with Caylee's death. And Taylor Swift fans got a second shot today at buying tickets for her upcoming tour after Ticketmaster’s website crashed from the unprecedented demand. Will the second time be the charm? Ann Mercogliano decided to try getting through to buy tickets.

Authorities say it was not a murder suicide…and they're calling it a “crime of passion.” Plus, it was a heart wrenching day in court as victims of the Waukesha parade massacre gave victim impact statements.
