Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity? cast previews Travis Kelce-hosted game show WTHR 2024-10-18 | Do you remember Jeff Foxworthy hosting "Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?" Prime Video is rebooting the game show, now titled, "Are You Smarter Than a Celebrity?" and hosted by three-time Super Bowl champion Travis Kelce. Each game will welcome an adult contestant who will rely on a classroom full of celebrities to help them answer 11 questions on a range of subjects to try to win a $100,000 prize. "I loved hearing every person's stories, and everyone had a different reason for why they were trying to make the money there," said reality TV personality and podcaster Sophia Stallone ("The Family Stallone"). "Some of them were super inspiring that made me want to answer the questions even more right." The classroom of celebrities changes each episode, ranging from actors, comedians, former professional athletes, and reality TV and YouTube personalities. Also starring in the FX horror drama series "Grotesquerie," Kelce is having a big year aside from his tight end duties for the Kansas City Chiefs. "He really killed it. Believe me, I wanted to hate him. I'm not a football fan," said comedian and actress Natasha Leggero ("Chelsea Lately," "Another Period"). "He took the job very seriously and really kind of nailed it, and we were all really impressed with him. He got all the jokes, he loved joking around. He had an opinion. There were some things he was like, 'nope, I'm not gonna say it.' He really blew us away."

Delphi murders trial begins Friday WTHR 2024-10-18 | When opening statements in the Delphi murders trial take place Friday morning, you will not get to see them. Despite repeated requests from WTHR and other media organizations, Special Judge Frances Gull has ruled cameras are not allowed in the Carroll County courtroom. 13News wants you to understand what that means for the trial and coverage of the Delphi murders proceedings. Senior investigative reporter Bob Segall explains why cameras are being excluded from the trial and how WTHR will get you firsthand reports from inside the courtroom. Gull did allow cameras in the courtroom at one of Allen's pretrial hearings back in late 2023. But then, things went sideways. The judge kicked Allen's public defenders off the case. They appealed to the Indiana Supreme Court, which overruled the judge and reappointed the defense team. Things got very tense — and cameras have not been allowed back inside the Delphi murders courtroom ever since. If a judge wants to keep cameras out of a trial, court rules here in Indiana give no opportunity to challenge that decision. "That judge has complete discretion, and that judge's discretion is final. There is no one to appeal to, essentially, in terms of changing this decision right now in this moment. There is no recourse to do that," 13News legal analyst Katie Jackson-Lindsay said. Jackson-Lindsay said it's not really the media that loses out as much as the public. "What needs to come out of this trial beyond justice for either side is public trust in our system, and having cameras in the courtroom would allow the public to actually see how it plays out," Jackson-Lindsay said. "Regardless of this verdict, there's going to be one side that's very unhappy, and lack of public trust that comes from this trial in particular is going to be far-reaching — far beyond Carroll County — because everyone is watching right now." Keep in mind, the trial is being held in a small courtroom in Carroll County to give the residents of Delphi a chance to see the trial themselves. But by not allowing cameras inside the courtroom, where seating is extremely limited, Delphi residents will have little chance to see the actual proceedings. So that's where the media comes in. And here's what's going to happen: The judge has allotted 12 seats inside the courtroom for media to cover this trial. The media is working together to divide those between print and broadcast. There will be a random drawing to determine which outlets will get a pass to be inside the courtroom each day, and those passes will rotate. Two of the media passes each day will go to pool reporters, which means they will brief all media and share their notes with the other reporters, including those who did not get a seat inside the courtroom. By the way, after the judge turned down 13News' request for cameras in the courtroom, we asked if we could at least record audio, take still pictures, or have a closed feed of the trial sent to an overflow room, so more people could watch. Gull said no to all of those options. Thursday afternoon, the media met with Gull, who went over all of the rules for the trial. 13News will be at the Carroll County Courthouse every day, inside the courtroom as much as we possibly can be, to bring you firsthand accounts and team coverage of the trial. wthr.com/article/news/crime/delphi-girls-murdered/judge-rules-cameras-wont-be-allowed-in-delphi-murder-trial-courtroom-francis-gull-carroll-county-richard-allen/531-f82116fc-1763-46ee-8fe5-47c81c44447b
Family, friends hold vigil to remember 14-year-old boy killed in Indianapolis hit-and-run crash WTHR 2024-10-18 | A 14-year-old boy killed in a hit-and-run crash was remembered Thursday by friends and family. Wilberto "Willie" Rivera's loved ones were back in the area of the crash to honor him with a balloon release. It's been almost a week since Rivera was killed. He was riding his bike along North Cumberland Road just before 10 p.m. on Oct. 10 when a car struck him just north of East 10th Street. According to court documents, Rivera was riding his bike while a group of his friends were walking in the grass. The friends told officers that Rivera was hit by a black Chrysler. Now, the scene of tragedy is being turned into a place of hope and healing. A warm glow overlooked a crowd gathered there Thursday evening. Some smiled and laughed. Others were tearful and gave long hugs, remembering a life ended too soon. It's something a parent or family member shouldn't have to go through. But despite the grief, they still find ways to keep their spirits high above the clouds — with Willie. The outpouring of love Thursday reminded family they're not alone in their grief or their fight for justice. An Indianapolis man has been charged for his alleged role in the crash. Prosecutors charged Joshua Raine with leaving the scene of an accident resulting in death or catastrophic injury. The charge was filed seven days after the crash. On Oct. 11, detectives learned Raine had gone to police headquarters to report a crash he was in on Cumberland Road. He reportedly told police he slowed down and looked in his rearview mirror after hitting something, but didn't see anything and saw another car behind him that also didn't stop, so he assumed he hit a deer. Detectives said Raine was visibly upset during the interview and expressed remorse for the incident. Raine allegedly said he would have stopped if he knew he had hit Rivera. wthr.com/article/news/crime/loved-ones-gather-to-remember-14-year-old-boy-killed-in-hit-and-run-crash-wilberto-rivera-impd-fatal/531-19df9b19-51ae-4c9e-b8b1-b876eda72a93
