Indiana Governor To Decide Fate Of Man Facing Execution For Murdering Two Children By Fire

Alaska's governor has ordered an investigation into Democrat Mary Peltola’s involvement in a seemingly deceptive campaign trick to confuse voters on the ballot. A New York Times report, sourcing a dozen people either in or close to Peltola’s campaign, details efforts to recruit another Dan Sullivan to run against the Republican incumbent whose name is also, Dan Sullivan. Peltola has denied any involvement, instead pointing the finger at the Times, saying the outlet was just trying to increase its “subscriptions.”  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week an Indiana parole board has pleaded with Governor Mike Braun to uphold the death sentence of 50-year-old Jeffrey Weisheit. Weisheit was convicted for the 2010 brutal killings of his then girlfriend’s two children ages 5 and 8. The details are excruciating, including the fact that Weisheit tied up 5-year-old Caleb Lynch after arguing with him, and placed a railroad flare in his underwear and underneath his body, before setting the home on fire with 8-year-old Alyssa hiding in the closet. Both children died in the fire, but there is an unlikely supporter of commuting Weisheit’s execution to life in prison: the children’s father.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Arkansas State Police are on the hunt for 41-year-old Rodney Smith after police say he assaulted two officers at the county jail and grabbed one of their tasers. Smith was last seen walking along railroad tracks near the jail, without shoes, but so far has managed to evade police. Meantime, we’re learning more about Tennessee’s escaped prisoner, convicted murderer Jacob Morley, who authorities now believe could be connected with an armed bank robbery in Wisconsin. That would mean Morley may be armed with a weapon and an undisclosed amount of cash. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A residential cruise ship sailing around the world only gave its passengers several hours notice to disembark the ship they called home and find another place to live. More than 200 people expected to live on the ‘Odyssey’ for at least another year and a half, many of whom sold their homes and invested hundreds of thousands of dollars to become permanent residents sailing around the world. The company announced it ran out of money for fuel because of rising oil prices due to the Iran war and had no other choice but to suspend operations. Villa Vie was one of a number of companies that marketed endless, around-the-world cruises, where passengers could live less expensively than on land. Now, those passengers are stranded in Cambodia, trying to figure out what to do next.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
