    Progressive prosecutor lets illegal immigrant teen off easy after 90mph crash that killed 24 year-old woman
    PROGRAMMING ALERT: TUNE INTO FOX AND FRIENDS FRIDAY MORNING AT 6:30 AM (ET) TO HEAR FROM THE FATHER OF KAITLYN WEAVERA teenage illegal immigrant who killed a 24-year-old Colorado woman during a high-speed crash was given a lenient plea deal by a progressive district attorney that allowed him to walk free without serving any jail time.The 15-year-old Colombian teen, who has not been publicly named because of state laws that shield the identity of underage criminal suspects, was sentenced to two years probation and 100 hours of community service for the July 2024 death of Kaitlyn Weaver, her father, John Weaver, told Fox News Digital.The office of Arapahoe County District Attorney Amy Padden offered the teen a plea deal if he admitted his guilt in the deadly crash.The teen was racing his Jeep with other kids at speeds of 90 mph in a residential neighborhood in the Denver suburb of Aurora when he T-boned Weaver's vehicle at an intersection, her father said."It was an instantaneous death," John Weaver said.Kaitlyn Weaver was waiting at a stop sign and speaking to her boyfriend on speakerphone at the time she was struck, he said. She was kept on life support for two days before she was taken off and her organs were donated.The teen suspect was arrested and charged with vehicular homicide. At the time, the Weavers were told by the DA's office the case was a "no plea offer" case, John Weaver said.However, in January, Padden, who received endorsements from Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and Democratic Colorado Gov. Jared Polis, informed the Weaver family her office would negotiate a probation plea deal.BLUE SANCTUARY STATE OPERATING AS 'CONTROL' CENTER FOR VICIOUS MIGRANT GANG: ACTING DEA CHIEF"They said by doing two years probation, that's probably more than the judge would give if he pleaded guilty," John Weaver said. "You don't have to participate in a bad system. If the judge wanted to sentence him to less, that's the judge's issue. What happened in this case is you (prosecutors) created it into your issue. Now you're part of the problem."The Weavers' attorney, Matthew Durkin, called the deal "abhorrent," noting that Weaver was killed during the prime of her life.John Weaver noted that the teen who killed his daughter was in the United States illegally and unlicensed."We had a collision where the immigration system and the criminal justice system collided, and now my daughter's dead," he said.The teen had taken the uninsured Jeep without his mother's permission, according to local reports. His mother told authorities she planned to move him back to Colombia, but he has since applied for asylum.Arapahoe County Assistant District Attorney Ryan Brackley said he "unequivocally" condemns the teen's "reckless and unlawful behavior, which had devastating and irreversible results.""We believe the conviction to the highest charge in this case and the negotiated sentence acknowledges the seriousness of this preventable tragedy, and that no legal outcome can truly make up for the profound loss and void Kaitlyns loved ones will live with permanently," Brackley said.In a Facebook post this week, Padden addressed Weaver's death while focusing on the dangers of speeding."We acknowledge Kaitlyn Weavers death was the direct result of a crash caused by an unlicensed teenager driving at nearly twice the posted speed limit," she wrote. "This tragic loss is a powerful reminder that it is not just alcohol or drug-impaired driving that takes lives. Driving at dangerous speeds has deadly consequences too, and they are felt by our entire community."

    Marco Rubio warns Iran 'at the threshold' of nuclear weapon capability as US-Iran talks continue
    Secretary of State Marco Rubio warned that the United States faces a critical moment with Iran to curb the Islamic Republics efforts todevelop a nuclear weapon and limit its uranium enrichment.In an interview Thursday on "Hannity," Rubio said that all NATO members will have agreed on a goal of reaching 5% of GDP on defense over the next decade by the 2025 NATO Summit in June, amid rising global threats.U.S. and Iranian officials have held four rounds of talks, primarily in Oman, since President Donald Trump took office to address Tehrans nuclear program.The International Atomic Energy Agency, often referred to as theUnited Nations' nuclear watchdog, noted in a March report that Irans stockpile of 60% enriched uranium had alarmingly grown from 182 kg to 275 kg,approximately 401 pounds to 606 pounds, in early 2025."Once you're at 60, you're 90% of the way there. You are, in essence, a threshold nuclear weapons state, which is what Iran basically has become," Rubio said in an interview from Turkey.IRAN VASTLY INCREASED NUCLEAR FUEL STOCKPILE AHEAD OF TRUMP RETURN, UN AGENCY FINDS"They are at the threshold of a nuclear weapon. If they decided to do so, they could do so very quickly. If they stockpile enough of that 60 percent enriched, they could very quickly turn it into 90 and weaponize it. That's the danger we face right now. That's the urgency here."He added: "They are fairly close. Too close for comfort,to a nuclear weapon."Trump told reporters in Qatar that the United States was getting close to a nuclear deal with Iran."Iran has sort of agreed to the terms," he said, adding that the Middle Eastern nation can never be allowed to have a nuclear weapon.The New York Times reported that IransForeign Minister Abbas Araghchi said on Thursday at a book-signing ceremony in Tehran that his country would never give up its right to civilian nuclear energy. "None of our nuclear enrichment facilities will be dismantled," he said, according to the outlet.IRAN HIDING MISSILE, DRONE PROGRAMS UNDER GUISE OF COMMERCIAL FRONT TO EVADE SANCTIONSThe White House announced in February that it would engage in a "maximum pressure" campaign against Iran in an effort to curbits nuclear program, international ballistic missile development and support for regional proxies that seek to harm Americans.Rubio told Fox News host Sean Hannity that Trump wants Iran to be a peaceful and prosperous country."In the end, the decision lies in the hands of one person, and that's the supreme leader in Iran, and I hope he chooses the path of peace and prosperity, not a destructive path, and we'll see how that plays out," he said.

    Medical examiner details skull fractures in Karen Read murder trial testimony
    A medical examiner testified she could identify John O'Keefe's cause of death as a head injury and hypothermia but could not determine whether it was homicide, accidental or any other manner Thursday during the murder trial of Karen Read in the 2022 death of her boyfriend, a 46-year-old Boston police officer.Dr. Irini Scordi-Bello, a forensic pathologist with Massachusetts' Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, performed the autopsy on O'Keefe Jan. 31, 2022.While Scordi-Bello found that O'Keefe had died from head trauma and hypothermia, the manner of death how he suffered those injuries was undetermined.The blunt impact to his head was the primary cause of death, she testified, but hypothermia contributed. He had a deep cut and bruising to the back of his head. Once she looked at it from the inside, she found multiple skull fractures and brain bleeding. And his body temperature when he arrived at the hospital was 80.1 degrees compared to a normal body temperature of 98.6.KAREN READ TRIAL: CRIME LAB EXPERT TESTIFIES BLOOD EVIDENCE WAS NEVER TESTEDShe discussed the external examination first, saying she found similar injuries to his face, head, hand, arm and knee that other witnesses, including paramedics and police, have already described to the jury.He had "superficial" scrapes and cuts on his arm, which did not penetrate the skin or expose fat or muscle tissue, she testified.She also performed an internal examination and looked at additional injuries.At the back of his skull, she found multiple fractures from a cut on the right side of his head.That injury is consistent with falling backward and landing with his head on the frozen ground, she testified during cross-examination from defense attorney Robert Alessi, who asked Scordi-Bello if O'Keefe should have sustained a circular wound instead of the linear one found at autopsy.KAREN READ'S DEFENSE OPENS DOOR FOR SPECIAL PROSECUTOR TO BRING IN NEW EVIDENCE: COURT DOCS"There's nothing inconsistent with this injury and a fall on someone's on the back of the head with a blunt surface," she testified."A fall backwards where the person impacts the back of their head on flat, frozen ground would you expect that type of a laceration from that type of a fall?" Alessi followed up. "Not just a general fall backwards, but specifically a fall backwards where the back of the head hits flat, frozen ground. Would you expect that?""I could," Scordi-Bello said. "Yes."However, she also said she found no signs of grass on the back of O'Keefe's head.GET REAL-TIME UPDATES DIRECTLY ON THE TRUE CRIME HUBKILLER OR CONVENIENT OUTSIDER? 'UNEXPECTED CELEBRITY' KAREN READ'S TRIAL EXPLORED IN NEW FOX NATION SERIESAlessi also grilled her on the hypothermia finding, asking if internal injuries to O'Keefe's stomach and pancreas could have been caused by factors other than the freezing temperatures.She testified it is possible that his pancreas could have hemorrhaged from a device used to assist paramedics with CPR efforts, but that wouldn't have damaged his stomach. However, she later testified that the stomach ulcers could have been caused by O'Keefe drinking alcohol without taking his antacid medicine.The toxicology report found no drugs or prescription medications in his system at the time of his death. He had a .21% blood alcohol level. And he had been prescribed an antacid to prevent gastric ulcers.FOLLOW THE FOX TRUE CRIME TEAM ON XEven after an amended death certificate was issued, O'Keefe's manner of death remained undetermined. Scordi-Bello testified Thursday she stands by her findings as to the cause, head trauma and hypothermia.SIGN UP TO GET TRUE CRIME NEWSLETTERAfter Judge Beverly Cannone sent jurors home for the day, Alessi argued that new disclosures about expert testimony from Aperture, which conducted reports for the prosecution, would put the "entire defense" at risk if allowed this late in the game.The disclosure was dated May 8 but was received by the defense May 11, he said."I dont like to use hyperbolic words, but the word has been used against us ambush, ambush, ambush," Alessi said. "If theres ever an example of an ambush, this is it."In a heated back and forth, Brennan described the disclosure as evidence of a significant variance between the internal clocks in Reads Lexus SUV and John OKeefes cellphone data.Cannone did not announce a decision before adjourning court for the day.Read is due back Friday at 9 a.m.She could face life in prison if convicted of the most serious charge.

    Gabbard says Comey should be 'put behind bars' after picture allegedly 'issuing a call to assassinate' Trump
    Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard said ex-FBI Director James Comey should be "put behind bars" for a post he made on Instagram on Thursday allegedly "issuing a call to assassinate [President Donald Trump.]"Earlier on Thursday, Comey shared a picture on Instagram with seashells formed in the numbers "86 47." To some, the number "86" is a call sign for murdering or getting rid of someone or something and "47" is typically used to refer to the 47th President of the United States."Cool shell formation on my beach walk," Comey wrote in the caption of the picture, which has since been deleted.Gabbard made the comments on "Jesse Watters Primetime" Thursday night after Comey said he wasn't aware that the number "86" stands for some sort of violence.EX-FBI CHIEF COMEYS 86 47 SOCIAL MEDIA POST CONDEMNED BY WHITE HOUSE AS ATTEMPT TO PUT HIT ON PRESIDENT"I posted earlier a picture of some shells I saw today on a beach walk, which I assumed were a political message," Comey said after deleting the initial picture. "I didn't realize some folks associate those numbers with violence. It never occurred to me but I oppose violence of any kind so I took the post down."Gabbard said Comey and his people "need to be held to account according to the law" regardless of why he said he posted the picture."The rule of law says people like him who issue direct threats against the POTUS, essentially issuing a call to assassinate him, must be held accountable under the law," Gabbard said, adding that she thinks he should be in jail.The national intelligence director said Comey's post has her "very concerned for [the president's life.]""I'm very concerned for the president's life; we've already seen assassination attempts. I'm very concerned for his life and James Comey, in my view, should be held accountable and put behind bars for this," she said.'NEVER TRUMPER' COMEY'S '86 47' TRUMP POST UNDER INVESTIGATIONGabbard also said Comey has a lot of influence and that there are "people who take [him] very seriously."Shortly after Comey removed the post, Fox News Digital learned from a Secret Service source that the agency was aware of the incident and agents are being sent to investigate and interview Comey.The White House also condemned Comey's actions, with White House deputy chief of staff and Cabinet Secretary Taylor Budowich calling his post "deeply concerning.""While President Trump is currently on an international trip to the Middle East, the former FBI Director puts out what can clearly be interpreted as a hit on the sitting President of the United States a message etched in the sand," Budowich wrote on X. "This is deeply concerning to all of us and is being taken seriously."Comey, who led the FBI during Trump's first term before he was fired from the spot, had no comment when reached by Fox News Digital earlier on Thursday.Fox News Digital's Alec Schemmel and David Spunt contributed to this report.

    Scarlett Johansson takes aim at companies using her likeness, voice in AI
    Scarlett Johansson has continued to share her opinion on artificial intelligence and she has some suggestions on how the technology should be regulated in the future.During an interview with Vanity Fair, the actress spoke out about AI companies that have used her likeness and allegedly her voice in the past. She told the outlet that she is advocating for legislation to be made around evolving technology."There has to be some agreed-upon set of boundaries in order for [AI] to not be detrimental. I wish more people in the public eye would support and speak out about that I dont know why thats not the case," Johansson said.WHAT IS ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE (AI)?This is not the first time Johansson has warned about the dangers of AI.In 2024, Johansson claimed she had been asked to voice OpenAIs Chatbot by CEO Sam Altman, but turned down the job, only for people to notice that the feature, named "Sky," sounded almost exactly like the actress."Particularly with the A.I. piece. It was like: If that can happen to me, how are we going to protect ourselves from this? Theres no boundary here; we're setting ourselves up to be taken advantage of," the 40-year-old toldInStyle Magazine in March.In a statement to NPR following the release of "Sky," Johansson said, "When I heard the released demo, I was shocked, angered and in disbelief that Mr. Altman would pursue a voice that sounded so eerily similar to mine that my closest friends and news outlets could not tell the difference. Mr. Altman even insinuated that the similarity was intentional, tweeting a single word her a reference to the film in which I voiced a chat system, Samantha, who forms an intimate relationship with a human."The "Black Widow" stars legal team sent OpenAI letters asking for an explanation about how the AI assistants voice came to be, and the company later agreed to take down "Sky."LIKE WHAT YOURE READING?

    California officer's gun stolen by half-naked suspect who was later shot dead by another officer: bodycam
    A California police officer shot and killed a "disturbed" man after he stole another officer's gun out of her hands in her patrol car, began chanting about Jesus and refused to comply with orders to put the weapon down.The Fountain Valley Police Department on Wednesday released audio and video footage related to the officer-involved shooting, which took place a few months ago on Jan. 24.Lt. Mike Parsons said the incident began at around 11 a.m. that day after a concerned community member called the police department's Dispatch Center to report a "disturbed" man attempting to open a woman's car door.The woman was attempting to drive away from a middle school in the area when the man, who "appeared to have something wrong with him," began pulling on her car door's handle, the caller said. The woman, who was not identified, allegedly looked afraid, which is what prompted the caller to contact dispatch.11 ALLEGED TEEN TREN DE ARAGUA GANG MEMBERS ATTACK NYPD OFFICERS: POLICEThe suspect, later identified by police as 26-year-old Osean McClintock, was described as a shirtless man, possibly White or Hispanic, wearing jeans. The caller also said he had a shaved head.Officers then responded to the area near the middle school on a "suspicious subject" call, and a male officer located McClintock. He approached him on foot and asked him to take a seat, to which McClintock said he didn't have to. He started repeating, "In Jesus name I pray. Forever. Amen," and took off running.The male officer chased after him for a bit, but stopped once he saw McClintock was in the parking lot of the police department.McClintock approached a female officer, who was inside her patrol vehicle, and a physical altercation began. He tried to grab her gun, which she had drawn once he got closer to her vehicle, and was eventually successful in taking it from her.Audio and bodycam footage from the altercation revealed it was a struggle. In the bodycam footage, McClintock could be heard repeatedly yelling, "You're saved in Jesus' name forever!"She could be heard yelling, "He has my gun! He has my gun!"MS-13 GANGBANGER ILLEGAL ALIENS ACCUSED OF STABBING 3 CORRECTIONS OFFICERS IN VIOLENT VIRGINIA PRISON ATTACKThe female officer was able to get away from McClintock, but not before he pointed the gun at her as she begged him not to shoot.The male officer began running toward them once he heard the commotion. As the female officer took cover behind what appeared to be a USPS vehicle, the male officer demanded that McClintock put the gun down.He refused and got into the driver's seat of the female officer's patrol car, which led the male officer to fire multiple shots in his direction.It's unclear how many times McClintock was shot. First responders performed CPR and first aid services on him, but he was pronounced dead once paramedics arrived.Fountain Valley Police Chief Rod Cox said the investigation into the shooting remains active and could take up to a year to conclude since it involved an officer.Neither officer has been publicly identified.

    Cassie finds happiness with husband Alex Fine after years of alleged abuse by Diddy
    Seeing Cassie Ventura's life shows how far shes come since her alleged abuse at the hands of her ex, Sean "Diddy" Combs, years ago.The singer and actress, known professionally as Cassie, took the stand this week while eight months pregnant with her third child with husband Alex Fine, who was in court supporting her.The 38-year-old began testifying for the prosecution Monday, telling the story of years of alleged physical and sexual abuse, including "freak offs," which were hours-long sex parties that involved drugs and sex workers.She also alleged Diddy raped her in 2018 after she tried to leave him after their 11-year relationship.LEGAL EXPERTS BELIEVE CASSIE'S PREGNANCY COULD SWAY JURY IN DIDDY TRIALThey first started dating in 2007 after he signed her to his Bad Boy Records label.In November 2023, Cassie filed a lawsuit against Diddy, alleging rape and abuse. The 55-year-old rapper settled the suit a day later, but more lawsuits from more accusers soon followed.Diddys homes were raided last year as part of a federal sex trafficking investigation, and he was arrested in September and charged with racketeering conspiracy; sex trafficking by force, fraud or coercion; and transportation to engage in prostitution.A year ago, CNN released surveillance video that showed Diddy beating Cassie up in a hallway of a Los Angeles hotel in 2016. The video was played for the jurors this week.After finally ending their relationship, Cassie moved on to a happier relationship with her husband, Fine.LIKE WHAT YOURE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSIn 2019, after putting her relationship with Diddy behind her, Cassie married personal trainer Alex Fine, 32.The couple share two daughters, Frankie, 5, and Sunny, 4.The couple went public with their relationship in 2018, months after her breakup with Diddy. That same year, she and Fine announced Cassie was pregnant with their first child.After surveillance video of Diddy beating Cassie at a hotel in 2016 surfaced, Fine supported his wife, writing in part on Instagram, "Men who hit women arent men. Men who enable it and protect those people arent men To all the survivors, your stories are real, and people believe you."Cassie often professes her love for her husband on social media, writing for his birthday this March, "There arent words to describe how grateful I am that I get to do this life with you! The laughter and pure joy that I get to experience with you is beyond any of my dreams and manifestations. Youve taken care of me and my heart like no other, youre hands down the best girl dad and Im SO excited to see you now become a father to OUR SON!"Last year, for Fathers Day, she shared a video of him with their girls in a stroller, writing, "There is just no one like you.
