"HEARTTHROB PRIEST" Flees to Italy w/ Teen Girl he "GROOMED"

An investigation is underway related to former priest Alex Crow. The 30-year-old and an 18-year-old girl fled to Italy were they are reportedly staying in an Airbnb with no intention of returning to the U.S. The girl's parents have pleaded with her to return, but the girl insists she is fine. She says she and Cross have separate rooms. Alabama police say they are probing allegations that Crow may have groomed the teen, while she was still in high school. A love letter from Crow to the teen on Valentine’s Day of this year was found. Sheriff Burch said it is possible that more female students are involved. Church officials allegedly ordered the priest not to have contact with another female student who is a friend of the 18-year-old teen.

Hiker-Mom Rachel Morin Found 'Naked in Pool of Blood, Side of Face Gone'

Investigators looking into the shocking death of 37-year-old Rachel Morin, have been tight-lipped on how the mom of five died, the type of injuries she sustained, or whether she was fully clothed or not. They're also pushing back on comments made by Michael Gabriszeski, who claims that his stepdaughter, Cecilia, found the body of Rachel Morin. Gabriszeski said that Cecilia saw Morin's body first and she began hyperventilating. He says police told Cecilia to sit down, and that she did, in a big pool of blood. Gabriszeksi says Morin was laying on her back, fully naked, and she had brutal head trauma. It looked like her head had been smashed with a rock. The Hartford Sheriff's Office Spokesperson said of Gabriszeski, "He has no first-hand knowledge of the crime scene." The spokesman says Mr. Gabriszeski was in the area to help search for the missing woman, but "was not within eyesight of the crime scene”.

Topless Mom Crushed in Trash Chute of Lux Apartment. Dad: HITMAN DID IT!

Five years after police rule Lara Prychodko's death as a tragic accident, her father is still pushing for answers. Prychodko died after falling 27 stories down a trash chute. Nicholas Prychodko claims in a lawsuit that his son-in-law carefully planned, and used a hit-man to facilitate her death. The couple was in the middle of an acrimonious divorce at the time. The chief medical examiner concluded that Prychodko died from multiple blunt force injuries and was extremely intoxicated. Prychodko's father doesn't believe that explanation. He says a hitman hired by her husband was waiting for her on the 27th floor. She was strangled and the body was disposed of down the building's trash chute. No criminal charges have ever been filed against her husband, David Schlachet. Prychodko’s father is suing for wrongful death.

JUSTICE FOR CULT MOM LORI VALLOW VICTIMS - JJ , TYLEE & TAMMY

Convicted killer Lori Vallow faced a judge today for sentencing in the deaths of her children, JJ and Tylee, as well as conspiracy in the death of Tammy Daybell. The court heard victim impact statements from two of Tammy Daybell family members and two from Vallow's relations. Lori Vallow addressed the court herself, beginning with a biblical quote from Christ: "He that is without sin among you let him first cast a stone at her." Vallow said Jesus understands her and knows the truth of what happened. Vallow's statement intimated deaths from suicide or complications from medications. She also told the court that the spirits of all three victims have visited her in prison. Vallow said Tylee is no longer in physical pain from her medical condition and that JJ is happy. She said quote, "My beautiful children Tylee Ashlyn and Joshua Jackson rest safely this day in the arms of Jesus. My wonderful friend Tammy Daybell rests safely this day in the arms of Jesus, and I look forward to the day we are all reunited and I, too, will rest with them in the arms of my Jesus." Judge Steven Boyce told Vallow that the crimes for which she was convicted were heinous before sentencing her to consecutive life sentences.

Gorgeous Coed FAKES KIDNAP to Avoid Admitting SHE WON’T GRADUATE ON TIME

Graduation was just a few days away for a 23-year-old Pennsylvania coed when she vanished. Chloe Stein was last seen leaving her job at a Sonic restaurant in Hempfield Township. Her boyfriend received a text that night saying she was being pulled over, but she wasn’t seen or heard from again. Police issued a Missing Endangered Person Advisory for her. Two days later State Police received a tip that Stein was at a home in Jeannette. She was found safe. She told police that she was abducted at gunpoint by a man in a mask and was later released. It wasn't long before Stein admitted that she made it up, because she didn't want to admit that she wasn't graduating and in fact hadn't been going to school at all.

LAW ENFORCEMENT ADMITS PORTLAND SERIAL KILLER EXISTS

The murders of four Portland women have now been classified as the work of a serial killer. Detectives have linked the murders to a man granted early release from his sentence. Jesse Lee Calhoun, 38, was granted early release after he joined a group of inmates fighting devastating wildfires. Calhoun had been sentenced to four years in prison for felonies including burglary, unauthorized possession of a stolen vehicle, and injuring a police officer and a police dog as they attempted to arrest him. Calhoun's clemency has been revoked, and he is back behind bars.
