Son Sends Bloody Snapchat: "I Was Doing Witchcraft" | Crime Alert 05.01.25

One of the first and most vocal women to speak out about Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuse of young girls has died. Virginia Roberts Giuffre's family first announced she took her own life, but her father is asking for her death be investigated. He tells TMZ, Virginia said if she ever died by suicide, not to believe it. Giuffre's attorney told The Sun there were no signs she was contemplating suicide, saying, "There's suicide and then there’s misadventure." Four individuals connected to the Epstein abuse scandal are now dead, including Jeffery Epstein. He committed suicide in prison, but many still question if that's true. Epstein is alleged to have abused dozens of victims by causing them to engage in sex acts with him at his mansion in New York, and at his estate in Palm Beach, Florida. The victims - all underage girls at the time of the alleged conduct - were given hundreds of dollars in cash after each encounter either by Epstein, or by one of Epstein's employees.  The underage girls were initially recruited to provide Epstein with massages, and often did so nude or partially nude. These massages became increasingly sexual in nature, and would typically include one or more sex acts, as specified in the indictment. As alleged, Epstein also paid certain victims to recruit additional girls to be similarly abused. This allowed Epstein to create an ever-expanding web of new victims.Giuffre was just 17 years old when she was recruited by Ghislaine Maxwell.  Joining Nancy Grace today:  Lisa Phillips  - Epstein Survivor [met Virginia Giuffre on Epstein Island] and Host of the podcast "From Now On;" Instagram, Facebook & YouTube: @FromNowOnPod,  Andrea Lewis - Partner at Searcy Law in Pam Beach, Florida, Former Felony Prosecutor at Palm Beach County State Attorney's Office, and President of the Palm Beach County Bar Association Dr. Bethany Marshall -  Psychoanalyst, Author: "Deal Breaker,  and featured in hit show"Paris in Love" on Peacock ; Instagram & TikTok: drbethanymarshall, X: @DrBethanyLive Joseph Giacalone -  Former NYPD Sergeant SDS, Author of “ The Cold Case Handbook” and “The Criminal Investigative Function: A Guide for New Investigators 4th Edition," and Podcast Host of "True Crime with the Sarge;"YouTube: Joseph Giacalone, X: @JoeGiacalone Irv Brandt - Former Senior Inspector, US Marshals Service International Investigations Branch, Chief Inspector, DOJ Office of International Affairs; Country Attache, US Embassy Kingston, Jamaica.

Scott Peterson was convicted of murdering his pregnant wife, Laci Peterson, and their unborn son, Conner, in 2003. He was sentenced to death, but the sentence was later overturned. He is now serving life in prison without parole. The Los Angeles Innocence Project has filed a petition to overturn Peterson’s conviction, citing new scientific evidence and witnesses who support his innocence. Attorneys with the Innocence Project argue that the break-in at the Medina home across the street from the Petersons’ and the subsequent arson of the burglars’ van were not properly investigated. They also allege potential Brady violations by the Modesto Police Department and the Stanislaus County District Attorney's Office. The attorneys further claim that medical research has advanced since Peterson’s conviction and now indicates Conner’s fetal growth was consistent with a date of death later than prosecutors presented at trial. Prosecutors maintain that Conner was likely expelled from Laci’s decaying body shortly before the remains were discovered.

Wendy Williams’ guardianship battle intensified after sources alleged a judge told her she has no hope of restarting her career. Williams appeared before Judge Lisa Sokoloff, who criticized her niece, Alex Finnie, accusing her of leaking information to the media and threatening sanctions for any future conduct. Williams said she feels like she is in prison as she fights to end her court-appointed guardianship. Almost on cue, the situation escalated when Coterie, the assisted living facility where Williams lives on the fifth floor, called police and claimed Finnie had kidnapped her. According to a report Coterie filed with the NYPD, Finnie evaded staff and took Williams out to an Italian restaurant. After police were called, Williams and Finnie cited the incident as evidence of how restrictive the guardianship has allegedly become. Speaking to paparazzi outside the facility, Finnie noted that Williams’ guardian, Sabrina Morrissey, claims Williams can come and go freely and that no family visits are blocked. Finnie challenged that, pointing out that staff escorted Williams to the elevator, yet Coterie still called police. “Clearly, they are lying to me when they say I can go out and do what I want to do,” Williams told the interviewer. Williams said she can only leave the facility’s fifth-floor memory unit with permission and an attendant to unlock the elevator. This week, a judge approved an emergency petition filed by Williams’ attorney to move her from what she called a “luxury prison” to a less restrictive environment. Judge Sokoloff granted the request, and Williams will relocate to a private condo where she will have more freedom to come and go and receive visitors Joining Nancy Grace today: Elizabeth J.

New Englanders remain on edge as reports of a possible serial killer on the loose provoke fear and rumors on social media. Since early March, the bodies of eight people — mostly women turn up in Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island. Authorities can only identify half of the victims. All 8 victims bodies are in various stages of decomposition. Law enforcement across all three states continue to refute that the series of remains do not connect to a serial killer. Especially after police arrest a man on accusations he murders a woman whose body is found in a suitcase near a cemetery in Groton, Connecticut. Police imply the arrest dispels rumors about a serial killer in the area.
