Man found guilty of fatally shooting his wife as she tried to divorce him
WARNING: DISTRESSING CONTENT: Tony Morris, 67, was found guilty of murder after he shot his wife, 64-year-old Kathleen Morris, while they were in the process of getting a divorce A man who phoned for emergency services to confess he'd shot his wife of 31 years has been found guilty of her murder. The horrific incident happened at around 7:15am on August 26, 2024, when Hinds County Sheriff's deputies were called to the Mississippi home of Terry, 67, and Kathleen Morris, 64. Officers arrived at the property to find Kathleen Morris dead from a gunshot wound to her upper body. While at the crime scene, WAPT spoke to Tony Morris' brother, who revealed that Terry and Kathleen were in the process of divorcing when the fatal shooting happend. Hinds County Sheriff, Tyee Jones, revealing that Tony Morris called "into dispatch and stated that he shot his wife". Morris was subsequently arrested and identified as the suspect in the crime, reports the Mirror US. "A single moment of anger ended a 31-year marriage and took a life. Kathleen Morris lost her life during a moment of escalation that should have never happened," commented Hinds County District Attorney Jodi E. Owens II. "This case is an example of how quickly violence can overtake reason, and why prevention matters just as much as prosecution. As a community, this is why we must create space for people to ask for help, and support systems that respond before violence becomes the outcome," Owens added. Morris was convicted of deliberate design murder and handed a life sentence at the Mississippi Department of Corrections, Law and Crime reports. In a shocking turn of events in Twin City, Georgia, a man broadcasted his murderous intentions on Facebook prior to killing his wife and then himself. The small town was left in shock after the brutal incident which led the Georgia Bureau of Investigation to step in, upon the tragic finding of Zaria Khadejah Carr, aged 27, who had been stabbed to death. Authorities in Twin City received an emergency call around 9:30 pm on June 14 concerning a domestic disturbance at the couple's home. After murdering his spouse, Shamarcus Jameal Carr, aged 36, fled in her 2021 Dodge Challenger only to later commit suicide during a police chase. Despite efforts from the police to stop him, Shamarcus ultimately took his own life before they could reach him and he died from his injuries in hospital. Before this horrific episode, the pair had been publicly disputing on social media over issues such as cheating, spreading STDs, marrying behind bars, and claims of domestic violence, reveals The NC Beat. During a final distressing Facebook Live video, Shamarcus, who went by "Thè Frenchman" online, is heard threatening Zaria with death, to which she responds in bewilderment: "Damn, I gotta die about that?" It's thought that shortly after, Shamarcus took Zaria's life. The video has since been taken down.

Puppy left blind by brutal attack in Romania finds his forever home in Scotland
Otto's eyeballs were gouged from their sockets by thugs because he was barking in a garden but he is now settling into his new life in Scotland. A puppy who had his eyes cut out in a brutal attack in Romania has found his forever home in Scotland. Otto's eyeballs were gouged from their sockets by thugs because he was barking in a garden. The blind puppy was rescued by charity Paw Prints to Freedom in March, who posted a Facebook plea for a new home. Michelle McKee and her daughter Hannah, eight, fell in love with Otto and applied to adopt him. Otto, thought to be aged around one, travelled from Romania by truck in May to his new family home in Uddingston, Lanarkshire. Michelle, 39, said: 'We read of the terrible trauma he had been through. He had been living in a garden and been barking quite a bit. Neighbours cut his eyes out and left him for dead. He would have been terrified and in such pain. 'When we saw his photo, we fell in love. I contacted the charity straight away and said, 'we need him'. It cost £440 in total. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

'The day he arrived, I sat on the floor and he was so happy he jumped all over me. He has not left my side since. 'It makes me sad he will never see the faces of his family. But he knows he is loved.' Michelle added: 'People burst out crying when they hear his story. He has the loveliest wee face, you can't imagine how anyone could be so cruel. 'Maybe Otto's story will encourage others to consider giving dogs like him a second chance. 'We are raising money for the charity. Otto is on TikTok and has a Facebook page.' Paw Prints to Freedom said: 'We are very grateful to Michelle and her family for giving Otto the most amazing home, we're so pleased to hear he is thriving. We are always grateful for any support we receive.' Rescuers Tony & Mari who found Otto in Romania said: "When we picked up Otto, he was in serious condition. His eyes had clearly been damaged deliberately, but he was still so friendly. "We are so happy he is in the UK where he is loved. "Despite all his experience, he is an amazing, trusting, and friendly boy. He touched our hearts."

Mum of Brit, 25, who vanished in Sardinia a year ago says she's living through ‘never-ending nightmare'
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) THE mother of a Brit man who went missing in Sardinia a year ago has said she's been "broken" since his disappearance. Michael Frison suddenly vanished on the Italian island, where he had just arrived to do volunteer work on a farm, in July 2024.

"I'm trying not to lose my mind," she said as she recounted the last time she heard his voice. "He was in a rush but absolutely clear in his speech, I didn't detect any confusion in his state of mind." Michael, 26, vanished on 13 July 2024, just the day after he arrived on the Mediterranean island. read more in world news FLOOD CHAOS Flooding leaves cars underwater and turns streets to rivers at hols hotspot Cristina, who is from Somerset, told the broadcaster: "Human beings do not disappear from the face of earth without leaving traces unless … something extremely bad happened to them." Her son had reportedly gone for a walk, and returned in a confused state and showing signs of heatstroke. After this, he went for a second walk - from which he never returned. His clothes and trainers were later found close by. Michael's mum told Sky News is was "extremely unlikely" he would suffer heatstroke as he had lived on the island before. It would also be "completely out of character" to wander off barefoot and leave his belongings behind, she added. Terrifying vids show flash floods surging through Italian towns leaving 1 dead She has now moved to Sardinia along with her other son, 11, in an attempt to look for Michael. Cristina, who is originally from Sassari in the island's northwest, said she is "extremely worried because there are no traces of Michael". Although a local investigation into his whereabouts is ongoing, Michael's mum wants Interpol to step in to help with the search. "It's a never-ending nightmare," she said. "There's no real accountability... I am here and I am broken." Cristina said that "during the past 12 months, the area was constantly searched, through woodland, caves, mountains" - but nothing was found. She is also calling for a woman from Jersey who is believed to have been with Michael in the days leading up to his disappearance to come forward with any available information. One of her friends previously set up a GoFundMe to help with the search that raised more than £10,000. The money was aimed at supporting various costs including travel, legal fees and awareness campaigns. Cristina further told Sky of the impact Michael's disappearance has had on his younger half-brother Emanuele. Emanuele's father died back in 2017. "He's devastated," she said. "The three of us were extremely close, the two of them, they used to do everything together." She added that for him "it's horrible, he lost his father and now he lost his brother." 5 Michael's mum told Sky News is was "extremely unlikely" he would suffer heatstroke as he had lived on the island before Credit: Facebook/@Cristina Pittalis
