A disturbing report is coming from the USS Abraham Lincoln, now in its 9 month of deployment in the Middle East. Family members are demanding answers and action from the U.S. military after hearing from their loved ones that either they have attempted to jump overboard or have stopped other service members from doing so in recent weeks. There are reports of deteriorating conditions, from lack of food and hygiene supplies, to no hot water aboard the aircraft carrier, but this biggest issue is the delayed and open ended deployment that was supposed to end back in May. The Navy has denied there is an increase in reported suicidal ideation and that while supply hubs have been disrupted by combat, sailors aboard the ship have plenty of supplies and mental health support.

An LA grand jury’s indictment of 32-year-old Nick Reiner was unsealed on Wednesday, revealing new allegations against the son accused of killing his parents, Hollywood legends Rob and Michell Reiner.  Reiner is now facing the added special circumstance of “lying in wait” which gives prosecutors the option of seeking the death penalty. Reiner pleaded not guilty to the charges and will be back in court in a matter of days fighting to free up at least $1.5 million from a trust set up for him by his parents to rehire high profile criminal defense attorney Alan Jackson.

It was by far the most emotional day in court in the Lindsay Clancy trial, the 36-year-old Massachusetts mom who has admitted to killing her three young children.

The third inmate to be executed on August 13th will be Jeremy Williams who was convicted of the 2021 rape and murder of 5-year-old Kamarie Holland. William’s lethal injection will be Alabama’s first execution of the year and it’s scheduled to take place at 6pm CT. The evidence against Williams is disturbing and irrefutable; he filmed the entire assault and ultimate death of this little girl and as hard as it is to believe, authorities say her own mother was complicit and is serving a 20 year sentence for human sex trafficking. Williams put up no defense and ordered his attorneys not to appeal, so his name was moved to the front of the execution line.
