Hollywood heir accused of beheading wife, in-laws dies in custody days before release of key evidence
Sam Haskell IV, the Hollywood scion accused of chopping up his wife and in-laws before tossing a disembodied torso into a dumpster, has died in a Los Angeles jail while awaiting trial, according to authorities. Los Angeles District Attorney Nathan Hochman revealed in a statement that prosecutors had damning new evidence against him that was going to be made public at an upcoming preliminary hearing — including that he was having an affair with a 27-year-old woman and had been arrested with a bloodsoaked knife containing the DNA of all three victims. Corrections officers found the 37-year-old dead in his cell Saturday, days before the hearing, where prosecutors were expected to outline the case against him. He previously pleaded not guilty. "Instead of standing before a judge and answering for the crimes he's been charged with, the defendant managed to escape justice," Hochman said in a statement. "This is one last cruel act by someone who did the most horrific things for reasons we will never entirely know. A family that has been dealing with unimaginable loss now has been robbed of their chance to face him, hold him accountable for his barbaric actions, and openly share their grief and their cherished memories of their loved ones." Haskell's attorney did not immediately respond to a request for comment. He previously told Fox News Digital that the court's assertion his client was at risk of self-harm was "wild speculation" and condemned a judge's decision that forced him to appear shirtless or wear a protective vest at prior hearings. Haskell, who opted to face the court without a shirt, was facing three counts of murder for the Nov. 6, 2023 slayings of his wife Mei Haskell, 37, her mother Yanxiang Wang, 64, and her stepfather Gaoshan Li, 71, as well as additional special circumstance allegations. He would have faced life in prison without parole if convicted. "He was obviously an unhinged individual," said Joshua Ritter, a former Los Angeles deputy district attorney and a Fox News contributor. "The crime itself speaks to his mental unrest. It's not so uncommon that we see people commit murders based on financial or marital difficulties, but the idea of going as far as killing your in-laws and chopping their body parts up is very extreme." Hochman's office released a summary of the evidence prosecutors planned to unseal at the hearing. After killing and dismembering all three victims, he allegedly paid $500 to a group of day laborers he asked to remove a series of heavy black trash bags from the home, where they all lived together, according to prosecutors. After picking up the bags, one of the workers looked inside and saw human remains. The day laborers gave the money and the bags back to Haskell and called police. Investigators previously said that by the time officers arrived at his house, Haskell and the bags were gone. Fox News Digital also reported that surveillance cameras at a gym in Encino showed him placing a heavy bag in the dumpster outside. A homeless man looking through the trash made the gruesome discovery and called 911. Police found his wife's car, which had her stepfather's blood inside, Hochman's office revealed Monday. They tracked Haskell to an Airbnb nearby, which investigators allege he had rented for himself and the children he shared with Mei Haskell after the murders. When police arrested Haskell, he was carrying a pocket knife and a Home Depot receipt from a few days earlier listing plywood, a moisture barrier, coveralls and diamond saw blades, Hochman's office said Monday. In his rented SUV, he had a loaded .357 revolver, 32 rounds, a blood-covered knife, the family's passports and a one-way ticket to Japan, according to authorities. They separately seized $67,000 cash during a search on his office. DNA testing on the knife matched blood to all three victims, according to prosecutors. "You do have to take into account the timing of all of this," Ritter told Fox News Digital. "He's been in prison for some time. I imagine he had opportunities for this kind of action before now. But it does seem interesting that it would come on the eve of a date that would expose all of the horrible things that he'd been up to." Police later recovered eight more bags containing bloody evidence, but not the remains of his in-laws — and they said that "large amounts of blood" had been cleaned up at the family home. As for Haskell's alleged 27-year-old mistress, authorities say she told them Haskell told her in October 2023, shortly before the murders, that his parents would be taking over care for his children. Then he invited her on a trip to Japan. In addition to the one-way ticket he had, prosecutors say he bought her a round-trip ticket. "It's interesting to me that, here's a guy looking at life in prison without parole, multiple murders, it's as bad as it's going to get," Ritter said. "There's a strong likelihood that he will never see the outside of the prison again, but he is such a narcissist that he is more concerned with the embarrassment of perhaps his extramarital affair becoming exposed than he is with life in prison — if that is what motivated this." The remains of Mei Haskell's parents have not been found. Haskell's parents, Hollywood producer Sam Haskell III and beauty queen and actress Mary Donnelly Haskell, are known for a series of Christmas movies. His father was also a former talent agent who represented George Clooney and Dolly Parton, among other A-list stars. He declined to comment.

Man fatally shot by 2 Philadelphia police officers in Fairhill identified
Philadelphia police identified the 25-year-old man who was shot and killed by two officers in North Philly's Fairhill neighborhood in May. Police identified the 25-year-old man shot at the intersection of Mutter and Somerset streets on May 21 as Bruce Harry Garcia. The two officers who fired their weapons were identified as Edward Lane and Matthew Galdo. According to police, Lane and Galdo were in a marked Philadelphia police patrol car in full uniform just before 6:45 p.m. when they saw Garcia holding a black bag in the area of Front and Somerset streets. Police said that Garcia fled on foot when Lane and Galdo attempted to stop him. He ran westbound on Somerset Street. Lane and Galdo caught up to Garcia at the intersection of Mutter and Somerset streets, where a struggle ensued, according to police. Police said Lane and Galdo tackled Garcia to the ground to prevent him from accessing a handgun in his bag. During the struggle, Garcia grabbed the gun and discharged it through the bag, police said. Police said Lane and Galdo then both fired their weapons and struck Garcia in the chest area. Garcia then dropped the weapon and the black bag. Police didn't say if anything else was inside the bag besides the weapon. Garcia was pronounced dead at Temple University Hospital at 6:55 p.m., according to police. Police said that Galdo and Lane were both wearing active body cameras. The cameras captured "portions of the incident," according to police, but they were "knocked off during the struggle." Police said other cameras from the scene depict the shooting, along with body camera video from another officer. Police said that investigators believe that because Garcia's firearm was inside a bag at the time of discharging, it wasn't able to recoil properly. Because of this, police believe this may have led to a malfunction that caused the bullet to not eject from the chamber. Lane, 32, has been with the Philadelphia Police Department for 11 years, while Galdo, 29, has been with the department for five years. Both of the officers sustained scrapes during the incident, but didn't require medical attention. Both Lane and Galdo have been placed on administrative duty, per Philadelphia Police Department policy. The shooting is under investigation.

Miami-Dade man arrested for alleged indecent exposure in front of 13-year-old girl, MDSO says
A 34-year-old Northwest Miami-Dade man is accused of exposing himself and touching himself inappropriately in front of a 13-year-old girl as she sat in front of her home on Sunday night. While the Miami-Dade Sheriffs Office believes this to be an isolated incident, they said anyone else who feels victimized should come forward. The Sheriff's Office also said there were two other adult witnesses as well and said the suspect was arrested 90 minutes after the incident occurred. CBS News Miami also spoke with the mother of the suspect, Barry Sylneus, who said, "Barry is very nice. He has shown a lot of respect. He has had no problems at all." A check of records did show that Sylneus has not been arrested before in Miami-Dade or Broward. Court appearance and charges He appeared before Miami-Dade Circuit Court Judge Mindy Glazer, who said, "You were arrested for lewd and lascivious exhibition and two counts of indecent exposure." She appointed a public defender for him and said she found probable cause for the charges. She also ordered him to have no contact with the victim and not be within 500 feet of her. "That is no contact either directly or indirectly, in person or in writing or by telephone or through 3rd parties. No contact with the victim either through social media or through electronic means," she said. Sylneus had to be taken to the hospital after the court hearing for unspecified medical issues. Community reaction and suspect's background CBS News Miami spoke with area residents and neighbors who said they found the charges disturbing. Rocharlens Joseph, an area resident, said, "That is something I have never heard of before. I can't process that or think of doing something like that, especially when I have a little brother as well as a newborn niece. That is something wild to think about." Suspect's mom: "He has mental issues" Sylneus's mother said her son has struggled. "He has mental issues, mental health issues," she said. During the bond court hearing, there was no mention of mental health issues. CBS News Miami also spoke with the victim's mother, but she said she did not want to say anything.
