True Crime Reality

In a press conference following an emergency hearing called by the attorneys of Christa Pike, we learned more details about how and when Pike regained consciousness. Her attorneys say they believed Pike was brain dead Monday evening and was going to be taken off life support Tuesday, when she suddenly woke up and asked, “Where am I? And who are you?” To the medical staff. A judge ruled in favor of Pike’s attorneys, ordering the state to preserve ANY and ALL evidence surrounding the botched execution.

Three friends of Nolan Wells, the college student who went missing during a Fourth of July celebration in Mississippi, have sued NFL Hall of Famer Terrell Owens for defamation. Owens reposted a video, with pictures of three boys’ faces, accusing them of murdering Wells and adding the caption “ARREST THEM IMMEDIATELY!!” Owens post came after a grand jury did not recommend any criminal charges in Wells’ death. Lawyers for the friends say they also intend to file several more defamation claims, among them, the Rev. Al Sharpton and “The View” co-host Sunny Hostin for comments they made discussing Wells' death.

New Jersey police made a horrific discovery inside a multimillion dollar mansion: three members of the same family, all fatally shot. But police now believe it was the father, 61-year-old insurance executive David Grodnick who shot and killed his 62-year-old wife, Lora and their 24-year-old daughter, Sloane before turning the gun on himself. We discuss the details of this case, one that follows a disturbing trend this year, where seemingly successful, educated men murder their entire families before killing themselves, with little to no explanation.
