Police in the metropolitan Atlanta area have arrested a 15-year-old boy for the murder of an Uber drive found dead on a Lawrenceville street on Thursday. The Texas Department of Public Safety has issued an AMBER Alert for a 14-year-old girl believed to be with a 41-year-old man. Three women have been charged in connection with the death of a 6-year-old North Carolina girl who weighed just 27 pounds at death earlier this month. Police in Oregon are searching for an “armed and dangerous” man in connection with an early morning murder on Wednesday. A Ohio dentist and his wife were found shot to death in their home this week, with two small children found unharmed. Sydney Sumner reports.

15-Year-Old Boy Charged With Uber Driver’s Murder During Carjacking | Crime Alert 6AM 01.05.26

Private investigator Steve Fischer tells Nancy Grace that a chainsaw was found in the home rented by D4vd, and the chainsaw was still unwrapped.

PI Steve Fischer claims he also found a "burn cage" inside the home rented for Burke by his manager. Employed by the property owner to determine what took place in his house, Fischer uncovered items still in their original packaging that were unused.

The incinerator is illegal in Los Angeles, delivered to the residence under a fake name, and claims to reach a temperature of 1,600 degrees.

The LA police department Chief Jim McDonnell is remaining silent about the Burke investigation, saying public statements could "potentially jeopardize the case."

The LAPD obtained a court order to keep the medical examiner's full autopsy findings sealed to maintain the integrity of the investigation.

David Michael Burke will likely be indicted in connection with the death of 14-year-old Celeste Rivas Hernandez.

BOMBSHELL: D4VD HOME INCINERATOR PURCHASED @ TIME OF CELESTE DEATH?

Anna Maciejewska arrives in the United States from her homeland to continue her education at the University of Louisville in Kentucky, holding two bachelor's degrees from Warsaw University for mathematics and computer science, specializing in actuarial mathematics.

Anna began working in finance at ING and later at Voya Financial in West Chester, Pennsylvania. Anna Maciejewska meets Allen Gould during a ski trip and really hits it off.

After dating for two years, the couple gets married twice in 90 days. First, a civil ceremony in the US, followed by a Catholic Mass with all of Anna Maciejewska's family and friends in Warsaw.

Co-workers are concerned that Anna Maciejewska has not been communicating with anyone, and when Anna doesn't show up for work on April 10, a coworker calls the State Police and asks them to do a welfare check on her.

An officer is dispatched to the residence, and once at the home, he attempts to get an answer at the front door, and failing that, he walks around the house, looking in windows.

TWIST IN MAIN LINE MOM MYSTERY: NEW WASHRAGS, GOOGLE TRANSLATE, WHERE'S ANNA?

A new investigation into the case of Samuel Haskell IV, the son of former Hollywood agent Samuel Haskell Sr.

He was accused of murdering his wife and in-laws in November 2023. Now, new entities claim they are owed hundreds of thousands of dollars from the estate.

The "money claims" in news reports relate to the financial situation of the household, specifically that Haskell's wife was the primary financial provider and paid the majority of the family's expenses, including a $7,000 monthly mortgage, while he was allegedly unemployed or underemployed.

Key details regarding the financial aspects and the case suggest that the victim, Mei Li Haskell, worked multiple jobs and was the main earner for the family, supporting her husband, their three children, and her parents, who lived with them.

The case never went to trial. Samuel Haskell Jr. died by suicide in his jail cell in July 2025, days before his preliminary hearing was set to begin.

The origins of the case stem from a group of day laborers hired by Sam Haskell IV to remove three bags of what they are told are rocks from his garage. The men described the bags as "soft and soggy," with each weighing about 50 pounds.

A block away from Haskell's house, the workers opened up the bags and said they saw body parts. The men returned the bag to Haskell and returned his money. Haskell played it off, telling the workers that what they actually saw were Halloween props. The men drove immediately to the police.

The men try to report what they have seen to the police, but they are turned away. The men went to the Highway Patrol station first but were told to go to the Los Angeles Police Department.

The LAPD Topanga Station tells the men to go back outside and call 911 from the courtyard. In the meantime, the police receive another call about human remains. A homeless man, digging through the dumpster looking for recyclables, finds human remains.

Inside the dumpster, the LAPD found a torso in a bag. The investigation provided detectives with enough information to lead them to Samuel Haskell IV's residence.
