Nahla Aubry, 18, has defended her mother Halle Berry against allegations made by Olivier Martinez.
Halle Berry's 18-year-old daughter, Nahla Aubry, has spoken out in defense of her mother amid an ongoing custody dispute involving Berry and her ex-husband Olivier Martinez. In a declaration filed in Los Angeles Superior Court, Nahla said she had never witnessed Berry act violently toward anyone or physically abuse 13-year-old Maceo.
Nahla described Berry as a "loving and devoted parent" who is warm, supportive, and deeply involved in her children's lives. She said she has lived with Maceo for most of his life and has never seen her mother hit, slap, choke, grab, or otherwise physically abuse him. Nahla also said she has seen her mother and Maceo playfully wrestle and interact affectionately, adding that she never saw him appear hurt or distressed afterward.
Nahla said she was "shocked, very sad, and very upset" when she learned about the allegations. She also said Berry has encouraged both children to maintain relationships with their fathers and has not spoken negatively about either man to them.
Martinez, Berry's former husband and Maceo's father, has sought sole custody of their son. In court filings, he alleged that Berry physically abused Maceo during a Sept. 26 incident, including allegations that she put her hands around the boy's neck and choked him.

After spending the morning at the Pentagon to mark the 25th anniversary of the September 11th tragedy, President Donald Trump apparently had another attack on his mind in the afternoon — posting the 5-year-old video of him telling January 6, 2021, rioters to go home after they violently stormed the Capitol building.
The video, which was posted in full on Trump's Truth Social account Friday without any further context, shows the president repeating his false claim that he won the 2020 election but telling rioters to go home: "We have to have peace. So go home, we love you, you're very special."
A White House spokesperson said Trump reposted the video Friday as "a reminder to everyone that what the Democrats did to weaponize the justice system against President Trump has been debunked thoroughly."
It's unclear what cases they were referencing — the criminal case against Trump concerning the Capitol attack was dismissed due to his win in the 2024 election.
Trump has been repeatedly emphasizing voter fraud in recent months, increasingly and without evidence accusing Democrats of cheating in elections. At the GOP midterm convention this week, he implored the audience to "cheat like ****** " to help Republicans keep control of Congress.

A crash, a penalty… what next? For a man who's just turned 20, Italian hotshot Kimi Antonelli has already endured a tumultuous relationship with his home grand prix: the electrifying, old-school Monza circuit, long christened Formula 1's Temple of Speed.
Two years ago, on the same weekend that Toto Wolff announced that then-F2 driver Antonelli would have the small shoes of Lewis Hamilton to fill in 2025, Antonelli took part in his first F1 session. On his second flying lap, full-send around the final high-speed Parabolica corner, the teen dumped his car violently into the wall. Then, in 2025, Antonelli crashed again in practice before receiving a penalty for track limits and running Alex Albon off the circuit.
Coming in the midst of a helter-skelter rookie year, Wolff acknowledged that Antonelli's ninth-place performance had been "underwhelming," urging his protege to "just free up." Fast-forward 12 months, Antonelli is potentially 11 races away from becoming F1's youngest-ever world champion. And on Thursday, he acknowledged he feels "very free mentally."
Yet Antonelli's chances of becoming the first home driver to win the Italian Grand Prix since Ferrari's Ludovico Scarfiotti in 1966 are slim, bordering on zero. The championship leader, 59 points clear at the top, will take a 20-place grid penalty this weekend as he exceeds his engine allocation for the season. Mercedes's thinking is that, with Monza's mammoth long straight, overtaking from the back of the grid will be easier come raceday. Still, it feels a shame to lose the budding romance of a potential first Italian winner in 60 years.
"In some ways, it makes me a bit more relaxed going into the weekend," Antonelli said in the FIA press conference. "That's why I'm going to be able to enjoy more the driving and the weekend itself. Also, it's a different opportunity.

A disabled man violently attacked a ******* worker before dumping her body in a canal with the help of his daughter, a murder trial has heard.
Chereiss Bailey was found dead near a waterway off Ryders Green Road in West Bromwich on 29 September last year.
John Anslow, 65, and his daughter Hayley-Marie Ferguson, 42, both from West Bromwich, are accused of placing Bailey's corpse in a wheelchair and adding paving slabs before pushing it into the water.
Anslow has admitted preventing a lawful and decent burial but denies murdering Bailey. Ferguson, who is not accused of murder, has pleaded not guilty to preventing a lawful and decent burial and another charge of ******* isting an offender.
On the opening day of the trial, Birmingham Crown Court heard Bailey, who was 36, was last seen on the afternoon of 27 September, two days before her body was found.

President Donald Trump escalated his criticism Sunday over the dismissed Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool vandalism case, pointing to a National Park Service employee's account that former Olympian David Hearn "violently" ripped and tugged at the pool's coating before authorities arrived.
Trump shared a screenshot from court documents on Truth Social that detailed interviews with two National Park Service employees who were cleaning the interior of the Reflecting Pool when Hearn approached the area.
According to the document, one employee, identified as W-1, said Hearn initially used his cellphone to take what the employee believed were photos or video of damage to the pool.

The employee then alleged Hearn "knelt, placed both hands into the reflecting pool, below the surface of the water, and started to 'violently' rip and tug at a large portion of the blue pool coating," according to the document Trump posted.

Meta's stock tanked despite 28% revenue growth, but entering the hyperscaler race without legacy cloud infrastructure gives it a structural edge.
At 18.6x forward P/E, Meta's Muse Spark delivers frontier agentic AI capabilities that Wall Street is heavily discounting after a rough earnings report.
Act now: the ***** yst who called NVIDIA in 2010 just named his top 10 AI stocks — and Google didn't make the cut. Grab the names FREE today.
Shares of Meta Platforms (NASDAQ:META) have been clobbered since the firm pulled the curtain on its underwhelming quarterly earnings results. The numbers themselves were okay (28% revenue growth is nothing to sneeze at), but compared to the other hyperscaler firms, the results were actually quite uninspiring, with a lot to be desired. Add heavy spend into the equation, and it's not a mystery as to why investors rotated out of the name so violently last week.
One bad quarter doesn't signify that all is lost with Meta, though, especially as the company continues to spend aggressively to catch up in the hyperscaler race while also funneling considerable sums into its superintelligence team, which now actually has something quite impressive to show for its many years of hard work with Muse Spark, a model that might actually convince some users to pay for.

The Justice Department moved to dismiss the criminal case against Olympian David Hearn, who was alleged to have vandalized the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting pool, acknowledging the damage to the pool "was the result of flawed installation by the contractor."
Hearn pleaded not guilty to a felony destruction of property charge earlier this month after the U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro accused him of allegedly "forcefully and violently" ripping up parts of the pool floor.
Pirro's office said in a filing Friday seeking to drop the case that it only learned of evidence pointing to "a rushed and flawed installation process" after Hearn had been indicted by a grand jury.

The filing stated Pirro herself visited the Reflecting Pool on July 17 after it had been fully drained and became aware of significant damage throughout the pool area, which spurred the DOJ to request all documents from the U.S. Interior Department about how the pool was lined.

The World Cup creates far more losers than winners. One team will bask in triumph. A few others will have outperformed modest expectations. But most will consider their tournament a failure.
This time around, the pain of an early World Cup exit has hit the Netherlands, Germany, Portugal, and Brazil. Before them, Uruguay, South Korea, and Tunisia all had ambitions beyond the group stage.
The mood around a team can change violently. Darko Jekuac, a professor of sport psychology at the Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, told Front Office Sports that wins in Germany's first two matches generated a surge of optimism in the country that subsided into dismay and anger after the team's penalty shoot-out loss to Paraguay. "It was really surprising how fast the emotions and sentiment of the supporters changed," he said.
Angry fans want there to be a consequence for failure. The most common tactic is to fire the coach. This approach has remained in vogue in 2026; Germany pushed out Julian Nagelsmann, just as Tunisia ditched Sabri Lamouchi after its opening match. Others opted to resign before they could be pushed, including Uruguay's Marcelo Bielsa, Ronald Koeman of the Netherlands, and Hong Myung-Bo of South Korea.
There is a compelling psychological reason for foisting the blame on the coach. "National ***** ociations come under huge pressure from the public and the media to show that they have understood the seriousness of the failure," explains Jekuac. "As the coach is the most visible person in the system, sacking him becomes the fastest way to demonstrate action and accountability."

Panic is a lousy appraiser. When fear sweeps through a sector, the selling rarely distinguishes between businesses that deserve the beating and businesses that simply got caught in the crowd.
That gap between price and quality is where professional investors build careers, and it tends to open widest in commodities, where the underlying ****** et can swing violently for reasons that have nothing to do with any single company's operations.
Gold has spent 2026 providing a masterclass in that kind of violence. The metal hit a record $5,595 an ounce in January, capping a two-year run of record after record.
Then the story flipped. An oil shock tied to the Iran conflict pushed interest rate expectations higher, the dollar found its footing, and gold slid below $4,400 by early June. Mining stocks, which amplify every move in the metal, fell harder still.
The slump left two of Wall Street's most closely watched research desks to pick through the wreckage.

A Texas heatwave met an equally scorching tactical battle in Dallas in the FIFA World Cup 2026. Old rivals Spain and Portugal locked horns in a monumental World Cup round of 16 clash that, for the most part, felt more like a chess match than a chaotic goalfest.
Both managers set up teams that essentially cancelled each other out for vast swathes of the evening. The first half yielded minimal clear openings. The biggest scare for La Roja came from a looping Nuno Mendes cross that ricocheted violently off Unai Simón’s crossbar and flashed away to safety. Spain controlled the tempo with their trademark fluid passing sequences, but found a resilient Portuguese low block incredibly tough to break down. Up front, Cristiano Ronaldo cut an isolated figure as teenage sensation Pau Cubarsí matched his movements step for step.
Just as extra time seemed a certainty, Luis de la Fuente flipped the script. Fresh legs from the bench injected life into a tiring side, and the tactical gamble yielded pure gold in the 90th minute. Mikel Merino broke into the box, connected with a dramatic cross, and sparked unbridled Spanish pandemonium in the stands. Here is how each individual fared on a historic night in Dallas.
The Athletic Bilbao shot-stopper commanded his penalty area with absolute authority when things got tense. He anticipated overtop through-balls quickly and comfortably gathered a tricky cross under heavy pressure right before the halftime whistle.
An energetic performance down the right flank. He locked horns fiercely with João Félix and timed his overlapping runs well, though his final delivery occasionally lacked the precision needed to unlock a stubborn defence.

RIVERHEAD, N.Y. — Keith Jesperson, the "Happy Face" serial killer who has been trading prison letters with Gilgo Beach killer Rex Heuermann, is warning that the hulking former architect could face a reality check when he's shipped upstate this month.
Heuermann was sentenced Wednesday to the maximum possible sentence of three consecutive life sentences with no parole, followed by four consecutive sentences of 25 years to life in prison.
"I'm responsible," he said in court before he was sentenced. "The words I would say have no meaning."
Jesperson said before Heuermann's sentencing that prison will be no "cake walk."
Bryan Kohberger Traded Death Penalty For Life Sentence That Could Still End Violently Behind Bars

Michael Ray Gledhill, the son of actor James Handy's girlfriend and the suspect in his fatal stabbing, is set to undergo a competency evaluation, a Los Angeles County judge ruled Friday.
Specifically, according to AP News, Superior Court Judge John H. Reid ruled that 44-year-old Gledhill be moved to mental health court, where he'll undergo psychological evaluations. It's said another judge will then decide if Gledhill is competent for trial. Gledhill's attorney did not immediately respond to TheWrap's request for comment.
The court's decision came after District Attorney Nathan Hochman filed a felony complaint against Gledhill, who allegedly confessed to killing the 81-year-old veteran character actor earlier in the week.
"This is not how anyone's life should end, stabbed in the chest and left dying in the front yard of a home," Hochman said after filing the complaint on Friday. "The victim, James Handy, deserved to live out his later years enjoying what he had worked so hard for and enjoying it with those he loved and cared about. Like all murder victims, his life mattered and the person who inexplicably and violently took it must be held accountable for his actions."
Per the District Attorney's Office, Gledhill was charged "with one count of murder with a special allegation that he personally used a deadly weapon, a knife." Hochman's office also noted that the suspect faces 26 years to life in prison if convicted as charged.

The U.S. Treasury Department on Friday announced a new round of sanctions against 10 individuals and companies it accused of helping enable Iran's drone and ballistic missile programs.

Tyreek Hill’s Estranged Wife Fighting For NFL Probe Records

Tyreek Hill’s estranged wife, Keeta Hill, is fighting the NFL star over getting her hands on his police records ... TMZ has learned.
According to court docs obtained by TMZ, Keeta wants to issue subpoenas to various law enforcement agencies -- including police departments and prosecutors' offices -- that previously investigated allegations against Tyreek.
Keeta said the subpoenas seek evidence of “other crimes, wrongs or acts committed” by Tyreek and “certified copies of his grandparents' (who are witnesses) criminal convictions.”
Keeta previously accused Tyreek of punching her in the stomach while she was pregnant with their child, also of him spitting on her, pulling out her hair, violently twisting her ***** , locking her out of her home, physically restraining her, and threatening her life. Tyreek denied wrongdoing and claims that any actions were done in self-defense.
She said there is a nanny cam video that shows Tyreek’s violence towards her and her mother, which she claims his team tried to buy for several hundred thousand dollars.

More than 100 million years ago, huge marine reptiles might have chomped down on marlin-like fish, violently thrashing their prey until their heads ripped off, according to fossils that were recently ******* yzed.
Researchers studied more than 300 fossils belonging to Aspidorhynchus, a genus of extinct fish, from a large region of Germany that was once a series of islands scattered throughout a shallow sea. The area is recognized for yielding particularly well-preserved fossils from the Late Jurassic, which stretched from about 160 million to 145 million years ago.
Among this collection were
