In a jaw-dropping, head-scratching, headline making press conference, the FBI and multiple law enforcement agencies announced a major shakedown of the mob and the NBA.

In a rare move, the Texas Court of Appeals has just halted the execution of 58-year-old Robert Roberson.

The state of Texas is set to execute 58-year-old Robert Roberson next week, but his attorneys have filed a last minute request for a new trial based on a recent Dateline podcast. Roberson would be the first person to ever be put to death for shaken baby syndrome, following the 2002 death of his 2 year old daughter Nikki. The science he was convicted on is no longer regarded and is considered “junk science.”  That information alone brought lawmakers from both sides of the aisle to intervene last year, to stay his execution, but that stay is up and Roberson time is up. Now, baby Nikki’s maternal grandfather is speaking up, telling a story, if true, of egregious conduct by the judge in this case from the hospital where Nikki died, all the way to the courtroom he presided over in Roberson’s trial.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

It’s a true crime headline that seems nearly impossible to believe, and yet, 31-year-old Brittany Fortinberry has been charged with 47 charges including 14 counts of sexual misconduct with a minor.  A 15-year-old boy came forward this past spring, and now 6 months later at least 10 underage boys have told similar accounts of being drugged, forced into sexual acts and threatened with violence.

Despite begging the judge for mercy and a second chance at being a better father and son, Sean “Diddy” Combs will spend the next 3 years behind bars. Judge Arun Subramanian told Diddy that he took into account his philanthropy and the positive impact he’s had on his community, but that “a history of good works can’t wash away the record in this case, which shows that you abused the power and control over the lives of women who you professed to love.”  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Diddy broke down in tears as his children testified on his behalf during his sentencing hearing today.  The morning did not go well for the music mogul, with the judge ruling against him on several motions, and the prosecution revealing in a jaw dropping moment that Diddy had already booked speaking engagements in Miami starting next week, calling it “the height of hubris.”See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
