Custody, restraining orders, and a family torn apart
In a series of emotional social media posts on July 12, Kelley shared images of bruises on her arms, claimed she had fallen down stairs, broken her wrist, and was offered psychiatric medications like lithium and Seroquel against her will.

Further Kelley was previously placed on a 5150 psychiatric hold on June 13, after making 'concerning' comments during an social media live.
Kelley has repeatedly denied any history of mental illness or substance abuse, stating: 'I love my kids. I'm not crazy. I need help. And I want my kids back.'
Mental health, misdiagnosis, and public scrutiny
Kelley, a certified life coach and former 'Real World' star, has emphasized her background in psychology and mental health advocacy.
She claims the detentions have damaged her professional credibility and were orchestrated by a 'small but vocal group' of former friends not her husband or family.
'
I've committed two decades to helping people. The allegations against me are heinous and absurd,' she wrote. She also accused law enforcement of excessive force and emotional trauma, saying, 'This is shameful. Be ashamed of yourselves, gentlemen.'
911 audio and police statements paint a complex picture
Audio obtained by TMZ reveals Kelley made a desperate 3 AM call to police on June 13, asking for help retrieving belongings from her home and expressing fear of her brother-in-law, who was staying with her children. Hours later, she was detained at Sundance Resort after a friend reported concerns about her mental state.
Law enforcement stated: 'She made concerning comments to a family member and to our deputies. We transported her to a local hospital.' Kelley later posted: 'I have been taken against my will. Please check on my kids.'

Use of uncalibrated weighing scales increases in markets
Hubballi: The using of uncalibrated weighing machines in markets is on the rise, posing serious concerns for consumers. Besides uncalibrated weighing machines, some traders use stones and non-standard weights, particularly in smaller markets and roadside stalls. The legal metrology department's lethargic approach is the reason for the negligence of traders. Regular inspections and verification of weighing instruments have become rare. Consumers often receive less quantity than what they pay for, especially in loose items like vegetables, fruits and groceries. The difference may seem minimal per transaction but accumulates to significant amounts over time. Senior citizens and homemakers, who regularly shop for household needs, are the worst affected by these malpractices. Mahesh Jadhav, a vegetable purchaser at Janata Bazar, highlighted the prevalent issue of manipulated weighing practices. He observed that traders in weekly markets, including Janata Bazar, MG Market, Bengeri Shaniwar Dante, Old Hubballi Market and Unkal Weekly Market, openly utilise unsealed iron weights with beam scales. When customers request to see certified weights, the vendors become confrontational and dismiss concerns by claiming the expiration of their seals. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Beyond Text Generation: An AI Tool That Helps You Write Better Grammarly Install Now Undo The authorities need to conduct surprise checks and impose hefty penalties on defaulters, Jadhav said. Some buyers said consumer awareness is equally important. Buyers should check for certification stamps on weighing machines and report any irregularities to the legal metrology department. Local consumer forums should organise awareness campaigns about proper weighing practices and consumer rights. The govt must strengthen the monitoring and provide adequate staff and resources to the department, they said. Manjunath S, assistant controller of the legal metrology department in Hubballi, said two inspectors oversee the region — one for Hubballi city and another for Hubballi. These market inspectors regularly conduct unannounced inspections and impose penalties on vendors selling vegetables, fruits and groceries. From January to July 2025, authorities registered 118 cases and collected fines totalling Rs 3,85,000. According to regulations, electronic weighing scales require annual calibration, whilst beam weighing scales need calibration every two years. The market inspectors, besides performing surprise checks in the marketplace, are also responsible for affixing seals on the weighing scales, he added.

2 bros get life in jail for killing 17yo boy for stealing sugarcane
