Inside Edition for Monday, February 17, 2025

After a string of high-profile mass shootings at parades, schools, and shopping centers - we are a jittery nation. Inside Edition reports on the scene in Las Vegas over the weekend as loud popping noises led to a stampede by tourists who mistook the noise for gunfire. And that stampede wasn't the only thing that happened in Vegas over the weekend - it's also where Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck pulled off their top secret wedding. Now we're learning more about their walk down the aisle - we even caught up with the pastor who pronounced them husband and wife. Plus, funeral services will be held on Wednesday for Donald Trump's first wife, Ivana, who the medical examiner says died from injuries she sustained when she fell down her staircase. Falling down stairs is a big concern for people of all ages…especially the elderly. Ann Mercogliano has safety tips so a disaster doesn't happen to you. And it’s just the latest in a string of what have been dubbed Rolex girl robberies. Inside Edition reports on a guy who met a woman at a bar and then headed back to his apartment. He says he didn’t remember anything when he woke up the next morning…but he did notice his pricey Rolex was missing.

There was huge reaction to the release of video from inside the elementary school in Uvalde, Texas during the mass shooting that left 21 dead.
