Several jurors have made the rounds, continuing to point the finger at the holdout juror that ultimately resulted in a mistrial for the Lindsay Clancy triple murder case. In an unscripted moment, CBS host Gayle King was shocked when she realized, and the juror she was interviewing confirmed, that the hold out juror was a black man.

TMZ is citing multiple law enforcement sources with “direct knowledge” that Hayden Panettiere may have taken a blackmarket Oxycodone pill laced with fentanyl the morning of her death.  Those same sources say police are looking into her long time drug dealer in Los Angeles and are trying to trace the pill back to him.   Meantime, Panettiere’s on-again, off-again abusive boyfriend made headlines of his own over the weekend.  Brian Hickerson and his brother Zach were reportedly highly intoxicated when Zach was ultimately arrested for disorderly conduct, as Brian shouted at police that they “leaked it when my girlfriend died.”

The chatroom used by fired ‘Wheel of Fortune’ announcer Jim Thornton has put out a statement defending its purpose. The chatroom says it operates under strict rules against any type of illicit behavior, but says it exists because there is no safe way for “minor-attracted people” to access support for fear of stigmatization. The site goes on to say that most people attracted to minors behave responsibly and giving them a place to talk leads to more positive outcomes. They point out that Thornton’s firing - which they call a metaphorical lynching - illustrates the need for change in how we view people who have this attraction. As you might imagine, reaction to their statement has been met with outrage, especially among parents, who say this is dangerous, normalizing and even encouraging pedophilia.
