Jurors who sat through five weeks of gut-wrenching testimony in the Lindsay Clancy murder trial are legally free to sell their stories once deliberations end, and legal and publishing experts say the true-crime market makes those stories worth real money. The nine women and three men on the jury in Plymouth, Massachusetts, heard 85 witnesses, reviewed 200 pieces of evidence, and listened to Patrick Clancy's 911 call as he discovered what had happened to his three children, Cora, Dawson, and Callan, in January 2023. Lindsay Clancy admitted to strangling all three in their Massachusetts home. The only question at trial was whether severe postpartum psychosis stripped her of criminal responsibility. That question has proved agonizing for…Open

A 14-year-old girl and her mother are among at least 87 Americans unaccounted for after a catastrophic glacier collapse sent floodwaters tearing through the Nepal-China border region, and their family has heard nothing since Wednesday morning. Rashi Shashidharan, an eighth grader, and her 54-year-old mother Rekha were on a Hindu pilgrimage toward Mount Kailash in Tibet when a massive section of glacier broke loose from a mountainside. The resulting torrent of ice, rock, and water ripped through mountain communities along the river, killing at least 939 people and leaving nearly 4,000 unaccounted for. The last anyone heard from Rekha was a Wednesday morning message to her father: they were planning breakfast and had a noon embassy…Open

Federal authorities charged a 35-year-old man with posing as an NFL player and real estate mogul to swindle more than two dozen women out of over $1 million, but at least one woman says she saw through the con before she lost a dime. Ayana Velasquez met Daejon Love on a dating app in 2021. He introduced himself as "Jonathan," claimed his family was "one of the richest families in Switzerland," said they owned property across the United States, and told her he had a private chef. They went on a single date. Velasquez grew skeptical almost immediately. She told CBS News on Monday that the lifestyle Love described never matched what she observed in person. "I remember him saying he had a private chef. But I'm like, it must just be a…Open

Barry G. Smith of Germantown, Tennessee, pulled a 2.29-carat yellow diamond out of the dirt at Crater of Diamonds State Park in Arkansas, a find so striking that the park's own facility supervisor said he was "dumbfounded." Smith made the discovery on August 16 while on a family outing with his wife and two granddaughters, Sage and Juniper. The group rented a wagon and a basic search kit from the park, headed to the East Drain section of the 37-acre diamond field, and started sifting. Roughly thirty minutes later, Smith spotted something glimmering in the soil. He picked it up, thought it might be mica, and dropped it in his shirt pocket. It was not mica. Staff at the park's Diamond Discovery Center inspected the stone and confirmed…Open

Fashion's most powerful editor is facing an industry revolt after her handpicked 2027 Met Gala theme fell apart in weeks, and even the Met Museum's own leadership now admits the whole thing was a mistake. John Galliano, the British designer convicted in France for antisemitic outbursts at a Paris café in 2011, withdrew from the 2027 Met Gala theme that would have celebrated his career under the title "John Galliano: Horizons." His exit followed swift backlash from Jewish leaders, museum donors, and New York City officials who objected to honoring a man who once told Jewish patrons their families would have been "gassed" and declared "I love Hitler," AP News reported . The fallout has landed squarely on Anna Wintour, the Condé Nast…Open
