RUGGED TERRAIN SEARCH FOR BABY EMMANUEL: TOT "DISAPPEARS" 9 DAYS BEFORE "KIDNAP?"

Holly Bobo, a beautiful young nursing student, disappears from her family home in Darden, Tennessee. She is last seen by her brother, Clint, walking into the woods at the back of their property with a man wearing camouflage who looks familiar. The Holly Bobo murder case returns to court years after a Tennessee man’s conviction. A new legal filing has emerged, requesting a new trial based on statements made by a key trial witness who now claims to be recanting his testimony—the same testimony that helped convict his friend. Holly's case has already faced several setbacks over the years; could this be another? At the time of her disappearance, Holly Bobo was a 20-year-old nursing student at the University of Tennessee at Martin, attending classes at the Parsons Center. She lived with her parents and brother. On the morning of her disappearance, Clint, Holly's brother, was awakened by a noise outside the home. Believing he heard and saw his sister talking with her boyfriend, he thought nothing was wrong. However, when Clint spoke to their mother, she immediately sensed something was wrong and frantically called 911. That morning, Holly had woken up at 4:30 a.m. to study for an exam. Around 7:30 a.m., she answered a call from her boyfriend, Drew Scott, who was out turkey hunting. By that time, Holly's parents had already left for work, and Clint was still asleep. Twelve minutes later, Holly made her final cell phone call.

Bryan Kohberger, an admitted quadruple murderer, stares straight-faced as grief-stricken parents, siblings, grandparents, and friends of the four slain University of Idaho students speak to the court through their victim impact statements. Kaylee Goncalves’s sister confronts Kohberger in a stunning statement that moves the courtroom to applaud. Alivea Goncalves says to Bryan Kohberger, “My sister Kaylee and her best friend Maddie were not yours to take. They were not yours to study, to stalk, or to silence. They’re everything you could never be: loved, accepted, vibrant, accomplished, brave, and powerful.” Kaylee’s father, Steve Goncalves, also directly addresses Kohberger, calling him a "joke" and saying, “The world's watching because of the kids, not because of you.” He also highlights how easily Kohberger was tracked down by police: despite all those A’s in school, he’s still so dumb. Kohberger declines to address the court after listening to hours of powerful statements from victims’ families. He takes a last-minute plea, sparing him the death penalty. The judge ultimately sentences him to four consecutive life sentences. Judge Steven Hippler calls Bryan Kohberger a “coward” who “slithered through the sliding glass door at 1122 King Road” and “now stands unmasked.” Joining Nancy Grace today: Greg Morse - Criminal Defense Attorney at Morse Legal, Author of “The Untested” [found on Amazon] Dr. Shavaun Scott- Psychotherapist, Author of “The Minds of Mass Killers: Understanding and Interrupting the Pathway to Violence” and "Game Addiction: The Experience and the Effects;" FB: Shavaun.scott, Instagram: shavaunscott Dr. DeWayne Hendrix - Former Associate Warden at the MDC in Brooklyn, and Former Senior Warden with the US Department of Justice, Federal Bureau of Prisons; Founder and President of A New Daylight Foundation, Author: "Who Are You?

Authorities say they received a 911 call around 10 p.m. Saturday from a father who claimed his daughter, Melina, may have been abducted near Exit 22 on I-87. New York State Police said Melina and her father legally entered the U.S. on July 11 for a vacation from Canada. They were scheduled to return to Montreal on Sunday, July 20. Melina lives in another state with her mother. Her father and mother have been estranged since 2019, police said. Surveillance video shows Melina with her father in Saratoga Springs around 5:30 p.m., and she spoke with her mother on the phone around 6:30 p.m. On Sunday morning, authorities searched an area in the upstate town of Ticonderoga—near the Vermont border—where the father was believed to have been with Melina. The motive remains under investigation, officials said. Police noted that the father has no criminal record or history of domestic violence. They also said the vacation included stops in Connecticut and New York City.

The Justice Department is moving to unseal grand jury transcripts in the federal sex trafficking cases of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. But former federal prosecutors say the move is unlikely to reveal much—if anything—new. A 22-year-old man has been charged with murder in the shooting deaths of a longtime American Idol music supervisor and her husband in Los Angeles. A New York City man who stabbed two teenage tourists at Grand Central Terminal on Christmas Day has been sentenced to up to 29 years in prison. In Los Angeles… a man with a violent criminal record is accused of driving into a crowd on a sidewalk in East Hollywood, injuring 36 peopleSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Attorney General Pam Bondi is facing pressure from all sides to release the Epstein files, receiving major backlash after a memo from the Justice Department and FBI contradicted promises she previously made about releasing Epstein’s list. She now claims the incriminating "client list does not exist," that Epstein did not blackmail prominent figures, and that he died by suicide. Mark Epstein, Jeffrey Epstein's brother, says he has no reason to believe his brother took his own life. Instead, he alleges that Jeffrey was murdered and points to the federal government’s lack of transparency as potential evidence of a cover-up. Metadata analysis suggests the “raw” Jeffrey Epstein prison video from the night of his death may have been modified. While there is no definitive evidence proving the footage was tampered with, growing suspicion surrounds the key minutes missing from the video—fueling even more conspiracy theories, including claims that Epstein may still be alive. Epstein was first investigated by federal authorities in Florida in 2000, which resulted in a non-prosecution agreement and a guilty plea to state prostitution charges. He was later charged with child sex trafficking in Manhattan in 2019. The government also secured a conviction against Epstein’s co-conspirator, Ghislaine Maxwell.
