General Hospital Spoilers Preview July 2: Tension Rises in Port Charles as Enemies Circle Sonny
The next General Hospital spoilers video for Wednesday, July 2, 2025, shows Tracy realizing she was right while Josslyn vents her anger about Sonny, and Marco searches for answers. Tracy (Jane Elliot) emphatically tells Brook Lynn (Amanda Setton), 'I am so not happy about being right!' They probably got wind of what happened at Charlie's Pub and Tracy's railing against Sonny (Maurice Benard) again. Tracy needs to choose whether she wants to destroy Sonny or Drew (Cameron Mathison). READ THIS: Has Sidwell declared war on Sonny? Anna (Finola Hughes) looks at security footage, and Chase (Josh Swickard) asks, 'Anything useful?' So far, everyone who has targeted Sonny had ties to the intelligence community, but Molotov cocktails through a window seem a little amateurish. If it were intelligence, perhaps the perpetrator did that to throw the authorities off. Near what's left of Charlie's Pub, a heated Josslyn (Eden McCoy) tells Vaughn (Bryce Durfee), 'Sonny Corinthos brings death wherever he goes!' Why is she continually surprised when mob violence happens? Sonny's a gangster. She should know this by now. Perhaps her and Vaughn's spy skills will uncover a clue where the Keystone Cops PCPD failed. READ THIS: Is Vaughn destined to be Josslyn's new love? Marco (Adrian Anchondo) says to Lucas (Van Hansis), 'I'm almost positive that is not the full story.' He's definitely going to want answers about why his mom died, and will likely hold Sonny responsible. But if Marco's not careful, he could end up on Sonny's bad side. READ THIS: Find out about Tracy's ominous observation. Speaking of Marco, Sonny tells Jason (Steve Burton), 'If Marco ends up collateral damage…so be it.' The weekly teasers state that Sonny vows revenge. However, Lucas is going to be devastated if Marco ends up sleeping with the fishes. Sonny would never go after an enemy's kids, but if they were in the wrong place at the wrong time, oh well.

Man sentenced to 52 years for 2022 rape, kidnapping
Jul. 5—A former Bernalillo County firefighter convicted of sexual assault and other charges was sentenced Thursday to 52 years in prison. A 2nd Judicial District Court jury on June 21 convicted Celso Montano, 49, of kidnapping, three counts of criminal sexual penetration, one count of aggravated battery leading to great bodily harm, and intimidation of a witness via telephone. District Judge Cindy Leos sentenced Montano to the maximum allowed under law. On April 30, 2022, Montano kidnapped and confined a woman with the intent of inflicting sexual harm against her, according to a Bernalillo County Metropolitan Court criminal complaint. Montano sexually abused the woman with a metal object, it said. Montano harassed the victim for two years after and threatened her or offered to give her "anything of value" to keep her from reporting him to law enforcement officers, the complaint said. This is the first time Montano has been convicted of rape, but it was one of several such cases filed against him since the 1990s. Court records show at least one case against Montano was dropped due to prosecutors missing deadlines. Two others were dismissed because the women who accused him died before trial.

PSL boss spends weekend behind bars due to domestic violence allegations
A PSL official has been arrested and charged with domestic violence after allegedly slapping a 27-year-old woman during an argument at their Kempton Park apartment on 28 June. However, the alleged victim has denied the incident and claims she doesn't know the manager, despite police confirming the assault case. A top PSL official is embroiled in a domestic violence scandal following an assault case opened against him by a 27-year-old woman believed to be his girlfriend. The official allegedly slapped the woman, whose name is known to City Press, after an argument at their apartment in Kempton Park on 28 June. City Press understands that the official was arrested on Friday, days after the matter was reported to the Sebenza Police Station. A police officer close to the case, who asked to remain anonymous because he is not allowed to speak to the media, said the official was being held at the Modderbee Correctional Centre until his first court appearance on Monday. They live together in an apartment and when the argument took place, the woman alleges that he physically assaulted her by slapping her. She declared in her police statement that this was the first time he ever hit her since their relationship began. Police source Police spokesperson Colonel Dimakatso Nevhuhulwi confirmed the case and that he would be appearing in court on Monday. 'That is a common assault case related to domestic violence. The suspect is expected to appear in court on 7 July.' City Press could not reach the official for comment, but the woman denied that the incident took place or that she had opened a criminal case. She even disputed knowing the official: 'This is the first [time] I've heard of it.' However, according to the police source, the woman has been trying to have the charges dropped.
