Wendy Williams says she feels like she is in prison as she fights to end her court-appointed guardianship. Almost on cue, she may have proven her point when Coterie, the assisted living facility where she resides on the fifth floor, called police, claiming her niece, Alex Finnie, had kidnapped her. According to the report Coterie filed with the NYPD, Finnie evaded staff and took Williams out to eat at an Italian restaurant. After police were called, Williams and Finnie cited the incident as an example of how restrictive the guardianship has allegedly become. Speaking to paparazzi outside Coterie, Finnie noted that Williams’ guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, claims Williams can come and go freely and that no family visits are blocked. Finnie questioned that statement, pointing out that staff escorted Williams to the elevator, yet Coterie still called police. Williams told the interviewer, “Clearly, they are lying to me when they say I can go out and do what I want to do.” Williams claims she can only leave the facility’s fifth-floor memory unit with permission and an attendant to unlock the elevator. This week, a judge approved an emergency petition filed by Williams’ attorney to move her from what she calls a “luxury prison” to a less restrictive environment. Judge Lisa Sokoloff approved the request, and Williams will relocate to a private condo where she will have more freedom to come and go and receive visitors. Joining Nancy Grace today: Elizabeth J.

In a major development in the search for Nikki Cheng Saelee McCain, the Shasta County Sheriff's Office announced that the missing person investigation is now a homicide investigation. Detectives made the determination based on evidence gathered, information from interviews, and the fact that none of Nikki’s family members have heard from her since May 18, 2024. Nikki Cheng Saelee McCain has been missing for ten months, and her husband, Tyler McCain, had remained silent until now. At a press conference alongside Nikki's family and the Shasta County Sheriff's Office, McCain spoke publicly about his wife for the first time. Nervous and struggling to find the right words, he said he didn’t know what to say, apologized to Nikki's family and his children for not being more publicly involved in the search, admitted he had not handled the attention well, and offered a message to Nikki, saying, "We miss you." Detectives with the Shasta County Sheriff's Office Major Crimes Unit, along with agents from Homeland Security and the FBI, served a search warrant at 17277 Olinda Road in Anderson. This was Nikki’s residence when family members first reported her missing on May 22, 2024. Does this mean police believe Nikki's body was moved?

Sudiksha Konanki and five college friends arrived in the Dominican Republic on March 3. They booked rooms at the all-inclusive resort Riu Republica in Punta Cana. A few days later, Sudiksha and her friends were dancing at a disco when the resort experienced a 25-hour power outage in some areas. Some reports say that’s when the group of six women and two men decided to take a moonlight walk on the beach. Surveillance footage shows Sudiksha Konanki and five women, along with two men, walking toward the beach. About an hour later, the footage shows five women and one man leaving. Konanki apparently stayed behind with Joshua Riibe, a 24-year-old spring breaker from the U.S. The next morning, Konanki’s friends went on an excursion she had not signed up for, so they did not realize she was missing. When they returned that afternoon, they discovered they had not seen her since the night before. When they tracked down Riibe, he said he had passed out on the beach and, when he woke up, he was alone. Assuming Konanki had already left, he returned to his hotel room. By then, she had been missing for 12 hours. Dominican Republic authorities questioned Riibe for hours over the weekend, including intense questioning by Attorney General Yeni Berenice Reynoso and Navy Vice Admiral Agustin Morillo Rodriguez. Authorities have confiscated Riibe’s passport, and he is not free to leave. Reports say police escort him wherever he goes.

Kouri Richins' defense alleges that the Summit County Sheriff’s Office illegally obtained evidence while investigating the death of Eric Richins. Defense attorneys Kathy Nester and Wendy Lewis say detectives violated Richins' constitutional rights and argue that the evidence should be ruled inadmissible during her murder trial. At the center of the motion are the "Walk the Dog" letter and data from her phone and Apple accounts. Defense attorneys argue that investigators took Kouri’s phone without a proper warrant and failed to inform her of her right to remain silent, her right to request a lawyer, and her right to refuse questioning. The case began when Eric Richins became violently ill on multiple occasions after having dinner with his wife, Kouri. The couple, who owned a successful real estate business, was celebrating a big sale when Kouri Richins prepared a drink for her husband. She then went to care for their children. Hours later, when she went to bed, Eric Richins was dead. Investigators believe his wife killed him by putting a fatal dose of fentanyl in his drink. Police also discovered that Kouri Richins attempted to change the beneficiary of her husband's life insurance policy.
