Inside Edition for Monday, February 17, 2025

Lots of reaction today to that jaw-dropping CNN Town Hall with Donald Trump. It appeared the audience was filled with supporters of the former president…and they cheered his defense of the January 6th rioters and laughed as he mocked E. Jean Carroll, the woman who successfully sued him for sexual assault and defamation. His comments were so inflammatory, Carroll's lawyer says she's seriously considering filing a new lawsuit against the former president. And it's been 18 years since Natalee Holloway disappeared during a high school graduation trip in Aruba. The 18-year-old's body was never found. A prime suspect in her disappearance was Joran van der Sloot - Although he was never charged. Now, as Jim Moret reports, van der Sloot may be extradited to the United States on charges of extortion and wire fraud. Plus, Beyonce kicked off her Renaissance world tour last night in Sweden...but fans noticed her usually high energy dance moves were toned down a bit. There's speculation she's recovering from foot surgery. So what happened? And did a disagreement about buying a house lead to the death of the man who's widow later wrote a book on grief? We've learned more about the case that led to a children's book author being charged with the murder of her husband. As Ann Mercogliano reports, investigators allege she wanted to buy a pricey house…and he was refusing.

Jean Carroll made the rounds on morning TV today...saying she feels vindicated after years of Trump defaming her. All this comes as Trump prepares to take the stage tonight at a CNN Town Hall event. And two weeks after Tucker Carlson was fired by Fox News…he's announced he's taking his program to Twitter.

We're back in New York after a whirlwind few days in London for King Charles Coronation culminating in last night's blowout concert where Katy Perry brought the house down. But even the stars on the stage couldn't outshine the little royals in the audience who clearly know all the words to Katy Perry's songs! And, if you've lost count of how many mass shootings have happened so far this year, you're not alone. It's a sad commentary in today's times. The latest shooting came this weekend at an outlet mall in Allen, Texas where a gunman, clad in body armor, opened fire with an automatic rifle on shoppers. Eight were killed along with the gunman by a cop who just happened to be there. As Jim Moret reports, the gunman was wearing a patch that symbolizes a right-wing death squad. Plus, according to reports, a grand jury may be meeting today to decide if any charges will be brought in connection with that death on a New York City subway. Meantime a group upset about the killing of a subway performer by a Marine veteran decided to assemble 'on' the subway tracks themselves … a move officials called dangerous and reckless. The Marine veteran claims he was acting defense of himself and other passengers. Les Trent has details, and we warn you this story contains upsetting video. And, closing arguments today in the civil rape trial against former President Donald Trump with E. Jean Carroll's attorney saying she was 'exactly his type.'
