Reality TV star Duane “Dog the Bounty Hunter” Chapman’s stepson has been arrested, months after the stepson allegedly fatally shot his teenage son. The Collier County Sheriff’s Office in Florida on Tuesday announced the arrest of 39-year-old Gregory Anthony Zecca. Zecca is the son of Chapman’s wife Francie Chapman (née Frane) from a previous marriage. In July, the sheriff’s office said, officers reported to a shooting incident at an apartment in Naples in southern Florida. Law enforcement on Tuesday said an investigation had determined that Zecca “was impaired by alcohol” when he allegedly shot his son.

Jurors have awarded $8.3 million to the family of a Kansas foster teen who died in 2021 after he was held face down for 39 minutes in a juvenile intake center while in the throes of a mental health crisis. Five juvenile officers in Sedgwick County either used excessive force on Cedric “C.J.” Lofton or failed to intervene, the jurors decided Wednesday after a trial in federal court in Wichita. Sedgwick County, which employed the officers named in the suit, said in a news release Wednesday that it was reviewing the verdict and discussing the next steps. When Lofton returned home at 1 a.m. the following day, the foster father called Wichita police, the report said. A sergeant then determined he was too combative to go to the hospital, so officers transported him to the Sedgwick County Juvenile Intake and Assessment Center instead, the report showed.

The Washington Post laid off one-third of its staff Wednesday, eliminating its sports section, several foreign bureaus and its books coverage in a widespread purge that represented a brutal blow to journalism and one of its most legendary brands. The Post would also not say how many people it has on staff, making it impossible to estimate how many people were laid off Wednesday. A half-century ago, the Post's coverage of Watergate, led by intrepid reporters Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein, entered the history books. Even during its recent troubles, the Post has been notably aggressive in coverage of Trump's changes to the federal workforce. “Loyal readers, livid as they saw owner Jeff Bezos betraying the values he was supposed to uphold, fled The Post,” Baron wrote.

President Donald Trump told Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer last month that he was finally prepared to drop his freeze on billions of dollars in funding for a major New York infrastructure project. But there was a condition: In exchange for the money, Schumer had to agree to rename New York’s Penn Station and Washington’s Dulles International Airport after Trump. Travelers in Moynihan Train Hall at Penn Station in New York on January 23. Yet despite that priority, there’s little that the Democrat could conceivably do on his own to put Trump’s name on either Penn Station or Dulles Airport. While some conservative lawmakers have already introduced legislation to rename Dulles as the “Donald J. Trump International Airport,” it’s so far gained little traction.

Some 400 million years ago, long before dinosaurs or even trees had evolved, an enigmatic organism towered over the landscape like a prehistoric monolith. Advertisement AdvertisementFirst identified 160 years ago, the fossils — known as Prototaxites — measure up to 30 feet (around 9 meters) tall and have long defied easy classification. In the 19th century, scientists initially thought Prototaxites was the rotten trunk of a conifer. The new research focused on three Prototaxites fossils unearthed in the Rhynie chert, a prehistoric land ecosystem near Aberdeen, Scotland. Fungi fossils preserved in the chert contained compounds from the breakdown of chitin and glucan, key structural molecules in fungi.

Wyden is the longest-serving member of the Senate Intelligence Committee and is a careful, hardworking, and dogged member of Congress. Democrats insisted on stripping DHS funding out of the bills to fund the government for 2026 after ICE and Border Patrol agents began to inflict terror on the country. Those demands are pretty straightforward, but if written into law as required for the release of funds, they would change behavior. This morning, in a rambling and often crazed speech at the National Prayer Breakfast, Trump told attendees: “They rigged the second election. It is not a stretch to think he is now trying to interfere with the 2026 election by claiming elections are part of foreign affairs.

The Cowboys have 22 players designated as free agents for the upcoming offseason. #21 - RB Miles Sanders (UFA)The veteran probably only stuck around because Jaydon Blue didn’t impress early, and then went out in October with a knee injury. The Cowboys aren’t going to overpay for an assured backup on their roster, so they may lose him to the open market. Both will be easy to retain as exclusive rights free agents, meaning the Cowboys only have to offer them minimal deals. If Pickens doesn’t return, Dallas is immediately in the market for a new starter.

MICHAEL TRAN via Getty Images“What’s your name?” Catherine O’Hara asked me, leaning forward in the booth. During my interview, the manager had ignored my flimsy (both in substance and content) resume and assessed my body instead. When I walked in for my first shift, I was surprised to see a friend from college working at the host stand. At nearly 9 o’clock, three women walked in: two women I’d never seen before and the one and only Catherine O’Hara.
