Disturbing Google Searches Surface as Clancy Murder Trial Unfolds

During Lindsay Clancy's Massachusetts murder trial, prosecutors revealed cellphone records showing a string of disturbing Google searches in the days and weeks before she killed her three children, including “How to slit throat to die” and “How to treat a sociopath,” plus queries about postpartum depression, psychosis and medications; a visit to a suicide methods site and a journal entry about wanting a fourth child were also noted. Clancy allegedly strangled her kids with exercise bands at their Duxbury home in January 2023 and then attempted suicide; her defense argues postpartum psychosis played a role, while prosecutors contend the killings were calculated. The proceedings also included final texts with her husband and notes about mental health.

Family of NY mom Jamey Carney recounts shock after murder in Ireland

The family of New York mother Jamey Carney, who was killed in her Ireland home, says hearing the devastating news was a shock and a nightmare. Carney, 43, moved to Ireland in 2021 with her daughter and was found with severe head wounds; an autopsy ruled suffocation as the cause of death. Police say her boyfriend Ahmad Alsaqer, a 28-year-old asylum seeker, is a person of significant interest and may have fled the country, with authorities suspecting he could be in Turkey. The couple reportedly met at an anti-Israel protest. Carney’s relatives urge that the tragedy not be used to fuel prejudice as investigators continue to pursue answers.

New DNA Clue Could Rewrite Murdaugh Murder Retrial

Lawyers for Alex Murdaugh say they’ll introduce previously undisclosed DNA evidence at his retrial—specifically male DNA found under Maggie Murdaugh’s fingernails that doesn’t match Alex or any family member and wasn’t added to CODIS—to argue his innocence and suggest other possible suspects. The defense follows the South Carolina Supreme Court’s overturning of his 2023 double-murder conviction for the killings of Maggie and Paul at the family estate, while Murdaugh remains jailed for financial crimes. Prosecutors argued the motive was to cover up financial crimes, but the defense is pushing multiple alternative theories and noting unexamined evidence, such as tire-track leads, that weren’t pursued. The retrial context centers on the 2021 murders of Maggie and Paul and the broader questions surrounding the case and timing.

Former Olympic snowboarder Ryan Wedding arrested in cross-border drug ring case

Former Canadian Olympic snowboarder Ryan Wedding, previously listed as an FBI Ten Most Wanted fugitive with a $15 million reward, was arrested on charges tied to running a transnational drug trafficking network spanning the US, Canada, Mexico and Colombia. Prosecutors allege the operation began around 2011, generated over $1 billion in illegal proceeds, and included ordering multiple killings in retaliation for drug debts. Wedding, who earlier served a prison sentence for cocaine distribution, faces a superseding indictment from 2024 accusing him of running the criminal enterprise and directing murders; NBC first reported the arrest, and authorities had believed he was in Mexico under protection of the Sinaloa cartel.
