It took a jury less then 30 minutes to convict already convicted murderer Lori Vallow Daybell of conspiring to kill Brandon Boudreaux, her niece's ex-husband. This is Vallow's third criminal trial in less than three years. Vallow has already been convicted in the deaths of her children, Tylee Ryan and JJ Vallow, and Tammy Daybell, her current husband, Chad Daybell’s, first wife, as well as her former husband Charles. On the morning of July 11, Charles Vallow goes to Lori’s rental home in Chandler, Arizona, to pick up JJ for school. Alex Cox, Lori’s brother, is also there. Within an hour, Vallow is lying in a pool of blood, shot by Alex Cox. Cox claims self-defense and is not charged. Later, in June 2021, a Maricopa County Grand Jury charged Lori Vallow with one count of conspiracy to commit first-degree murder, in the death of Charles Vallow.

Sean "Diddy' Combs federal sex trafficking and racketeering trial resumes after an expected juror illness, Wednesday and Juneteenth Holiday, Thursday. After this two day pause, the government's case winds down as they bring on their last witness, former assistant to Diddy, Brendan Paul and Diddy's alleged "drug mule." Paul is arrested in March 2024 right around the same time Combs' homes in Miami and Los Angeles were raided by federal authorities. Paul's arrest consists of coke and weed-related charges at the Miami-Opa Locka Airport that March. The former assistant's charges were ultimately dismissed after he completed a pretrial diversion program. Paul was described as a "mule" for Combs in a 2024 federal lawsuit against the mogul by producer Lil Rod. "He acquires, and distributes, Mr. Combs Drugs, and Guns," the suit reads. On the stand, Paul tells jurors he was more than just an assistant, he was Diddy’s go-to man for drugs, including cocaine, ketamine, MDMA (aka “tusi”), ecstasy, prescription pills, and high-grade weed. When asked about his relationship with Combs, Paul says " it is complicated." Paul testifies to working between 80 and 100 hours a week and the cocaine found on his person at the time of his 2024 arrest was left over from his cleaning of Diddy’s room. Paul claims he personally witnessed the use of coke, ketamine, ecstasy, weed, and more by his former boss, Diddy. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

NBC News' Dateline revealed new details about Idaho college murder suspect Bryan Kohberger, including his phone activity, disturbing search history, and a chilling selfie taken before his arrest. The report details Kohberger’s searches for Ted Bundy, pornography, and the Britney Spears song “Criminal.” His phone also contained a selfie dated December 28, 2022, showing him staring into the camera in a black hoodie—similar to the clothing Bundy wore in a YouTube video found in Kohberger’s search history. Dateline also uncovered new information about the killings. Investigators believe Ethan Chapin was the last victim targeted. He was allegedly asleep in bed when the attacker “carved” his lower legs with a blade. Before that, the killer reportedly chased and stabbed Xana Kernodle, who was still awake after ordering food from DoorDash.

A juror’s vertigo halted another day of Sean “Diddy” Combs’ sex trafficking trial before it began. The trial will resume Friday after a break for the Juneteenth holiday on Thursday. Prosecutors had planned to rest their case this week after presenting evidence over six weeks, but the delay means they likely won’t finish until Monday. Combs’ federal racketeering and sex trafficking trial has revealed new details about the disgraced rap mogul. Text messages introduced in court included a surprising item: a list of his favorite sermons. Titled “PD’s Favorite Sermons,” the list was compiled by a YouTube account called “Assistants PD” and surfaced during Jane Doe’s testimony. Another revelation came from one of the civil sex trafficking lawsuits against Combs, which describes his chief of staff, Kristina Khorram, as “the Ghislaine Maxwell to Combs’ Jeffrey Epstein.” Prosecutors allege Combs forced Cassie Ventura to take part in so-called “freak-offs,” while the defense claims she participated voluntarily. Jurors again watched footage of Combs’ drug-fueled sex parties, with the defense showing longer clips than the prosecution.
