Send us a textFashion to die for. Shopping and combing the racks for clothes is supposed to be fun, even necessary at times, but not deadly. The ladies in these next two cases went shopping for all the same reasons many of us do, to buy a new outfit for a special occasion, to pick up a gift for a friend, or to just kill time. Instead, they were killed. Police are still looking for the man who gunned down four customers, a part-time employee and the store manager at a Lane Bryant in ...

The 28-year-old Gulf Breeze man wil...

Send us a textDarrell Brooks plowed through the Waukesha Christmas Parade like he was in the fast lane driving home from work in rush hour traffic. He drove around barriers in his race through the Wisconsin town, rarely hitting the brakes and only honking at the performers and parade goers who lined the street for the small town’s annual, holiday celebration. Brooks didn’t seem to care he mowed some of them down, leaving young and old dead, injured and running for their lives. When polic...

Send us a textHave you been catfished? Lawd, I’m not even sure what that means, but when I think of a catfish, I see a big, ugly, opportunistic bottom dweller with spiky whiskers. It’s not much different with people who use “catfishing” to lure and deceive someone. It’s ugly enough when a stranger puts on a false persona, but what if it’s your own mother?! That’s what happened to a 15-year-old girl in Michigan who was bullied so badly online and on her phone that her school and the ...

Send us a textConrad Roy was no quitter. If anything, the 18-year-old marine salvage captain with an endearing smile put a lot of pressure on himself to work hard and succeed. Maybe a little too much pressure. Sometimes his depression took a dark turn and he wanted to follow through on ending his pain, permanently. Most of the time he didn’t give in, until attention-seeking Michelle Carter entered the “chat.” She was a summer vacation crush who took anti-depressants, too.That’s why ...
