TEEN GIRL CHEERLEADER DEAD ON CARNIVAL CRUISE SHIP, FBI JOINS INVESTIGATION

After two weeks in office, Attorney General Pam Bondi announced the release of documents related to the late financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. The Justice Department issued a statement alongside "Phase 1," clarifying that the declassified files largely contained previously leaked documents that had never been formally released by the U.S. government. While many expected Epstein’s client list to reveal explosive details, most of the roughly 200-page release consisted of previously circulated information, including Epstein’s contact list and flight logs from his private jet. Amid public disappointment, Bondi sent a letter to FBI Director Kash Patel, claiming a source at the New York FBI Field Office informed her that thousands of pages of Epstein-related documents remained in the agency’s possession. She demanded the remaining files be delivered to her office by 8:00 a.m. the next day and ordered Patel to investigate why her directives had not been followed. Bondi has since stated that her office received a "truckload of evidence," which she says includes the remaining Epstein documents the FBI had withheld. She claims Director Patel is investigating the reason for the delay while other agents work to redact the remaining files. Bondi promised, “If something’s redacted, you will know the line and you will know why it’s redacted.” Many anticipate new indictments based on the documents’ contents.

A circuit judge ordered Donna Adelson to remain in jail until her trial this summer. Judge Stephen Everett denied her bond request in a three-page ruling. Her attorneys argued that the 76-year-old felt unsafe in jail, citing alleged assaults, threats, and extortion. Adelson is charged with murdering her son-in-law, Florida State University law professor Dan Markel. Police found him shot in his garage on July 18, 2014. Her son, Charlie Adelson, along with his ex-girlfriend Katherine Magbanua and hitmen Sigfredo Garcia and Luis Rivera, have been convicted in the case. Markel was married to Adelson’s daughter, Wendi Jill Adelson, who has not been accused of involvement or prior knowledge of the plot. Miami International Airport police arrested Adelson in November 2023 as she and her husband, Harvey, prepared to board one-way flights to Vietnam via Dubai—two countries without extradition treaties with the U.S. In the bond ruling, Everett found prosecutors had presented enough evidence to keep her in jail. He acknowledged that courts have discretion in detaining defendants but said her case did not warrant release. He cited her arrest as a key factor in the decision.

Two people were shot on the set of Alec Baldwin's movie Rust. Director of photography Halyna Hutchins died, and director Joel Souza was wounded. Reports say first assistant director David Halls picked up one of three prop guns set up by armorer Hannah Gutierrez and yelled, “cold gun.” "Cold gun" is industry slang meaning the gun does not contain live rounds. Halls gave the gun to Baldwin, who used it to rehearse a scene. According to the search warrant, Baldwin aimed the weapon at the camera when he fired, striking Hutchins and Souza. Reports suggest crew members used the weapon for target practice earlier that morning. A judge dismissed charges against Baldwin. The actor sued and launched a reality show. Now critics have panned "The Baldwins" and Halyna Hutchins' family condemns the show as well.
