Illegal Venezuelan migrant pleads guilty to crash that killed boy a day before his 12th birthday

An illegal migrant from Venezuela has pleaded guilty to causing a head-on crash in Missouri that killed a boy just a day before his 12th birthday. Endrina Bracho, 34, was driving with her own two kids on Dec. 20, 2023, when her Dodge van crossed onto the opposite lane in Hazelwood, a suburb of St. Louis, at 75 mph — 35 mph over the speed limit, Fox 2 reported. She smashed head-on into a Jeep carrying Travis Wolfe, who spent several months on life support until succumbing to his injuries on March 6, 2024, a day before his 12th birthday. 4 Travis Wolfe, a 12-year-old Missouri boy, died three months after his family's Jeep was hit by an illegal immigrant speeding on the wrong side of the road. FOX 2 St. Louis Bracho's two children were taken to the same hospital with serious injuries, while Travis' parents, Timothy and Stephanie, were treated at another hospital for multiple broken bones. Bracho pleaded guilty in St. Louis County Circuit Court on Monday to first-degree involuntary manslaughter and two counts of second-degree assault. Her blind plea means she agreed to plead guilty without prior discussion or agreement with the prosecution about sentencing, Fox 2 noted. 4 Edina Bracho, 33, pleaded guilty to first-degree involuntary manslaughter. St. Louis County She is scheduled to be sentenced on Sept. 12 and prosecutors have recommended up to 27 years in jail. Prosecutors dismissed two counts of first-degree endangering the welfare of a child and two misdemeanor traffic charges, related to her children. 4 Travis Wolfe spent three months at St. Louis Children's Hospital. FOX 2 St. Louis Court papers previously noted that Bracho 'was here illegally from Venezuela,' without detailing exactly when she came. While her status 'did not play a part in [the] investigation,' it made it 'difficult identifying all parties involved because we didn't have documentation or identifications in the vehicle to try to figure out who the two juveniles and the suspect were,' Hazelwood police Sgt. Scott Schnurbusch previously told Fox 2. Wolfe's death was highlighted by US Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) as a heartbreaking example of the failed immigration policies of then-President Joe Biden. 4 Travis Wolfe succumbed to his injuries just a day before his 12th birthday.. FOX 2 St. Louis 'Travis Wolfe, a 12-year old Missouri boy killed by an illegal migrant,' Hawley tweeted in March last year. 'This is what an open border does. Say his name.'

Some fans found that the shoe looked exactly like Fox 1. One of the fans,@RyanJon87217700 's comment was about its design, which, according to him, could be a bit problematic or responsible for foot-related problems.

Who Is Hank Winchester? Emmy-Winning Reporter's Home Raided as Cops Probe Allegations He Sexually Abused Man During Massage

An Emmy-winning investigative TV reporter from Detroit — who co-hosts a podcast with the wife of a Los Angeles Rams player — is now being investigated himself, as his home was recently searched by authorities, who were investigating allegations that he made unwanted sexual advances toward a man during a massage. Hank Winchester, an investigative journalist for WDIV Local 4 — an NBC affiliate — and host of HelpMeHank, is married to Oakland County Circuit Judge Jacob Cunningham, according to his Instagram profile. The couple also has a young daughter. Beverly Hills Police Department along with the Oakland County Sheriff's Office, searched his Winchester home while executing a search warrant, according to Fox 2. Shocking Allegations The search was conducted as part of an investigation into claims that Winchester made unwanted sexual advances toward a man during a massage. According to sources who spoke with Fox 2, Winchester had recently been studying massage therapy. It remains unclear whether he was receiving the massage or acting as the masseur during the alleged incident. Winchester is also a co-host of The Morning After podcast alongside Kelly Stafford, the wife of Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford. The podcast sometimes includes well-known guests from major media outlets such as Access Hollywood and ESPN. Prior to joining the Los Angeles Rams, Matthew Stafford was the quarterback for the Detroit Lions from 2009 to 2020. Winchester shared that he had maintained a long-standing friendship with the Stafford family, as noted in a farewell message he wrote when they relocated to Los Angeles in 2021. After the "external investigation," was launched WDIV Vice President Bob Ellis confirmed that Winchester has been put on administrative leave. In a Scandalous Situation Winchester's attorney, Todd Flood, expressed confidence that the investigation will not result in any serious findings. "Hank has spent decades bringing truth to our community and fighting for our citizens. Because he holds a high-profile position in our community, that can at times generate false accusations. This investigation will end where it began – nowhere," he wrote. No charges have been filed at this time, and the investigation remains active. Winchester is not the only media personality to face such accusations in recent months. Back in April, a former Virginia weatherman was arrested after allegedly creating a sex tape and trying to blackmail his victims with it. In a separate incident last year, a TV news anchor from Louisiana stepped down after he was caught sending explicit messages to someone he believed was a 15-year-old girl — who was actually part of a vigilante group known as the "predator hunters."

Video/Pics: World War II memorabilia stolen from homeowner in Oakland

A collection of World War II memorabilia was stolen over Memorial Day weekend from a homeowner in Oakland, California. The military memorabilia was from multiple generations of the homeowner's family's military service. Forrest Spellman told Fox 2 that he had a 'ton of WWII memorabilia' that belonged to his grandfather, as well as medals and awards that belonged to his father. He also explained that four generations of his family served in the U.S. military. 'That military history has always meant so much to how much my upbringing was and who I am today and those articles meant a lot-as a symbol of that, who I am, my identity,' Spellman told Fox 2. Fox 2 reported that surveillance video shows a 'white, older-model pickup truck' pulling up to Spellman's driveway at roughly 4:45 a.m. on Saturday. Spellman told Fox 2 that he believes two thieves broke into his house by using a side door. Spellman explained that he and his wife were sleeping in their bedroom as the unidentified thieves were stealing their possessions from the home's second bedroom. READ MORE: Pics: Surprising WWII shipwreck finds revealed 'My wife and I woke up and heard footsteps right outside our bedroom door, and I was terrified,' Spellman told Fox 2. The Oakland homeowner noted that he left his bed, opened the door of the bedroom, and saw the silhouettes of the suspected thieves as they were leaving the front door of the house. A surveillance video and pictures shared on social media shows the white pickup truck, which features a black replacement fender on the front passenger's side of the vehicle, driving away from the scene early Saturday morning. Spellman described the incident as 'very upsetting' and explained that the break-in takes away from his 'sense of peace and security' in Oakland. The Oakland homeowner added that he hopes to 'reclaim' his sense of peace and security in the aftermath of the break-in. Spellman told Fox 2 that the World War II memorabilia stolen in Saturday's incident include his great-grandfather Philip Buck's dog tags, which were worn during the Battle of the Bulge. 'I think about them not only today, but all days of the year,' Spellman told Fox 2. 'I really hope to get those back, just memorialize that thought physically.' Spellman told Fox 2 that he had just moved into his home in Oakland last week. While Spellman acknowledged that a significant number of people had been working at the house throughout the week, he told Fox 2 that he did not have any idea who might be responsible for stealing his World War II memorabilia and other items.

Michigan police say Ford worker made millions stealing parts from plant to sell on eBay in years-long scheme

Millions of dollars of brand-new Ford hoods, bumpers and taillights recently disappeared straight off the assembly line into an online market before Dearborn police cracked the case. According to Fox 2 Detroit, a former Ford Motor employee slipped the parts out of three plants in Wayne, Dearborn and Flat Rock over more than two years, then funneled the loot to a Detroit‑area auto shop that resold it on eBay. Thanks to Jeff Bezos, you can now become a landlord for as little as $100 — and no, you don't have to deal with tenants or fix freezers. Here's how I'm 49 years old and have nothing saved for retirement — what should I do? Don't panic. Here are 5 of the easiest ways you can catch up (and fast) Nervous about the stock market in 2025? Find out how you can access this $1B private real estate fund (with as little as $10) 'When we executed a search warrant … from the floor to the ceiling, it was stacked with brand‑new auto parts,' Police Chief Issa Shahin told Fox 2. The suspect and several associates are now in custody, facing potential charges of grand theft auto, racketeering and running a criminal enterprise. According to Shahin, the ex‑employee removed factory‑fresh components during shifts and drove them to a third‑party shop on West Chicago Street, where they were then sold online. Detectives believe the parts were listed online within days, generating a big payday for all parties involved — until police stepped in and shut the entire enterprise down, reports Fox 2. Any item confirmed as stolen violates eBay's Stolen Property Policy, which states the company 'will work with law enforcement in any attempts to sell stolen property on eBay' and permanently remove offending listings. Since the federal INFORM Consumers Act took effect in 2023, high‑volume online sellers must verify their identities and provide contact information, which gives police an additional paper trail if goods are suspected to have been stolen. The warehouse‑style storefront and two locations related to the theft ring have been closed while officers sort and catalog thousands of items. Shahin said the department is 'working with all of our partners to see if we can shut them down permanently.' Ford's global investigations unit is also assisting officials. Many of the details of this investigation are still under wraps while police continue to investigate, but Fox 2 reports all suspects are currently in custody. Read more: This is how American car dealers use the '4-square method' to make big profits off you — and how you can ensure you pay a fair price for all your vehicle costs Buying discounted car parts online can be tempting, but stolen inventory creates headaches for drivers and body shops alike. If Ford invalidates the component's warranty — or law enforcement seizes the part during an investigation — owners may be stuck with a repair bill and no restitution. Plus, you can be charged with receiving stolen property, depending on which state you live in. So, how do you avoid stolen goods? Check the price against the MSRP. A new bumper listed at half the dealership cost is a red flag unless the seller can document overstock or liquidation. Look for original packaging and intact barcode labels. Missing boxes or scratched‑off serial numbers can signal hot goods. Vet the seller. Reputable merchants post business addresses, clear return policies and years of positive feedback. Beware of brand‑new accounts or profiles that hide contact info. Ask for paperwork. Legitimate dismantlers and surplus dealers should provide a receipt showing where the part came from, such as an auction lot, insurance salvage or OEM close‑out. Use protected payment methods. Paying with a credit card — rather than debit or cash — may make it easier to claw back funds if law enforcement later flags the item as stolen. If you spot a suspicious listing, you can report a concern on eBay and forward the URL and any screenshots to the local police. While you likely won't be able to trace the validity of smaller parts, larger parts like doors or engines may still have the car's original VIN number on them. If so, you can verify whether the vehicle was reported stolen using the National Insurance Crime Bureau's free VINCheck Service. Stolen parts rings thrive on speed and anonymity, moving inventory before factories even notice it's missing. A few minutes of due diligence — plus a healthy dose of skepticism about 'too‑good‑to‑be‑true' prices — can steer you clear of the financial and legal headache of buying stolen parts.
