Teen Victim of AI Fake Nude Photos EXPELLED?! | #truecrime #aischeme Criminally Obsessed 2026-01-02 | When AI-generated nude images of eight middle school girls circulated among the students at a Louisiana school on August 26, 2025, the victims went to school administrators for help. Instead, the girls were met with skepticism from school officials and their concerns were dismissed, according to a December 23 report by the Associated Press. Afterward, the images continued spreading on social media and students teased the girls relentlessly throughout the day. The situation reached a boiling point at dismissal that afternoon when a 13-year-old girl boarded her school bus and saw a boy showing one of the fake images on his phone. The girl confronted him and then slapped the boy. Soon after, several other students joined in on the assault, videos of which were widely shared online without the full context of the situation. Amid initial outrage over the beating caught on video, the girl was expelled from school for the remainder of the Fall 2025 term. Several weeks later, the girl and her family were somewhat vindicated when local sheriff's investigators were able to trace the AI-generated images back to two boys at the school, both of whom were charged with crimes under a new Louisiana law for distributing sexually explicit AI materials. One boy was charged in November, and another in early December. The local school board has since lifted the expulsion for the girl who started the attack on the bus, and she has been allowed to return to school. #truecrime #AIScandal
Father Nearly BEATEN TO DEATH By Stranger?! | #truecrime #unsolved Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-31 | A 71-year-old father was nearly beaten to death while walking his dog. In Phoenix, Arizona, Jeff Zimmerman was attacked by a stranger on a bike. The attack was so brutal that it left Zimmerman with severe head injuries, multiple broken bones and trauma to his right eye. The injuries compounded Zimmerman’s ongoing treatment for a brain tumor. Luckily two witnesses were able to get Zimmerman’s attacker off of him and called for help. Phoenix Police say charges have been submitted in the case, but investigators have not released any information about the suspect, including his name or age. The victim’s family says he did not know his attacker, and police have described the assault as random. #truecrime #unsolved
Teen Went Missing on Christmas Eve?! | #truecrime #missing Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-30 | A 19-year-old woman named Camila Olmos has been missing for nearly a week after she left her San Antonio home early on Christmas Eve. Surveillance footage shows her walking away from her house around 7 a.m., and newly found dash camera video later captured her about two blocks away along Wildhorse Parkway. Authorities say this footage gives the clearest indication yet of the direction she was heading. Camila’s mother told investigators that early morning walks were normal for her, but this time she never returned. Since that morning, there have been no confirmed sightings. The Bexar County Sheriff’s Office has expanded the search, asking nearby residents to review security footage. Multiple agencies, including the FBI, Homeland Security, mounted patrols and sheriff cadets, are now assisting. Investigators noted she had been under personal stress related to school and a recent breakup and are still considering multiple possibilities in the case. Anyone with information about Camila Olmos’ whereabouts is urged to contact the Bexar County Sheriff’s Office at 210-335-6000. Residents in the area are also encouraged to review any doorbell or surveillance footage from the morning of Christmas Eve that may help investigators.

Police then arrested 42-year-old Fale Vaigalepa Pea, who was found still holding the suspected weapon. Police say Pea is a regular troublemaker in the area who’s known for punching his victims and has already been arrested eight times this year. He is now charged with assault in the first degree and is expected to appear for a competency hearing later this month. #truecrime

What Happened to Susan Powell? #criminallyobsessed #missingperson Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-29 | “Covering all my bases making sure that if something happens to me or my family…”Those were chilling words from a video Susan Cox Powell recorded a year and a half before she went missing. On December 6, 2009, 28-year-old Susan disappeared from her Utah home. Her purse, phone and keys were left behind. Her husband, Josh Powell, was named a person of interest, but no charges were filed. Just weeks after Susan went missing, Josh moved their two sons, 4-year-old Charlie and 2-year-old Braden to live with his father, Steven Powell, in Puyallup, Washington. Steven was later convicted of voyeurism and possession of CSAM after police uncovered thousands of secret recordings, including videos of Susan. It was revealed later that Steven was obsessed with his daughter-in-law. Then, on February 5, 2012, the case took a devastating turn.

Kid Kicks Kidnapper Where It Counts | #truecrime #predator Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-28 | An 11-year-old Oregon girl put her soccer skills to potentially life-saving use when police say a man tried to kidnap her. The girl was practicing soccer with friends at a field near her apartment complex when the man allegedly approached her on a bike. The man said, "Come here little girl," and grabbed her wrist and cellphone. The girl started fighting him off and screamed, "I'm being kidnapped!" to which he allegedly responded, "Shut up!" She was able to get away by kicking him in the genitals as hard as she could. She then ran towards the apartments. Police arrested the man, identified as 31-year-old Jerson Hartman, of Twin Falls, Idaho. Officers noted the girl had red marks on her wrists from the incident. Hartman made his initial court appearance December 23 on charges of attempted kidnapping, attempted robbery, and possession of a controlled substance. #predator #truecrime
Who Killed Eric Tamiyasu?! | #truecrime #unsolved Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-28 | Eric Tamiyasu was killed in his Hood River, Oregon home in June 2001, yet nearly 25 years later the case remains unresolved, leaving his family still searching for answers. Although his death was quickly ruled a homicide, the investigation has long been criticized for unusual decisions that may have hindered progress. Most notably, authorities ordered the mattress where Eric was found to be destroyed within a day of the discovery, a move the former sheriff said was meant to spare the family further distress. Friends and relatives say Eric had been living alone in a newly built home, often left his doors unlocked, and was casually dating at the time, though little is known about those relationships. The case is now considered cold and is not actively investigated, though it is undergoing review by a major crimes team that did not exist at the time of the killing. #coldcase #truecrime
Family Sends Message to DAUGHTERS KILLER | #truecrime #victimimpact Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-27 | A South Carolina man has been sentenced to 45 years in prison after pleading guilty to the murder and kidnapping of his ex-girlfriend, 30-year-old Jamilla Smith. Smith, a mother of two from Aiken County, South Carolina, disappeared in December 2023. Her body was later found in a wooded area in a shallow grave. Daniel Harmon, her reportedly abusive ex, lied to investigators for months about her whereabouts. A chilling 911 call the night of her disappearance indicated Harmon had hit her with his vehicle then forced her into the trunk before later shooting her multiple times. Despite initially refusing to cooperate, Harmon eventually led authorities to her body and admitted his role in the crime. Two other men have also been charged for their alleged involvement in helping dispose of evidence and the victim’s remains. Jamilla Smith leaves behind two small children. Her family said they did not accept Harmon's apology at his sentencing hearing on December 19, and did not find it sincere. #truecrime #victimimpact

In May of 2023, Daniel Peasnell was celebrating his 31st birthday by drinking heavily the entire day. He later went to his friend’s wedding, where he got into an argument about how much he had been drinking. When he tried to attack the groom, the groom’s uncle stepped in to stop the fight, but this only led to Peasnell biting the man’s finger off. Police then arrived and subdued Peasnell who threatened to bite off one of the officer’s noses. Peasnell was charged with fighting in a public space and threatening an officer and on December 21, 2025, was sentenced to five years in prison. #truecrime

Ashlee Buzzard In Custody — Melodees Remains Found In Utah Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-24 | The search for 9-year-old Melodee Buzzard has ended in tragedy. Though her remains were found in rural Utah earlier this month, they were not positively identified through DNA until yesterday. Now, investigators say Ashlee Buzzard remains uncooperative even after being arrested for her daughter’s murder. Police say Melodee Buzzard suffered gunshot wounds to the head around October 9th, which was the last day she was seen alive. The murder weapon has not been found, but during a press conference, investigators say they matched cartridge cases found at the scene with one at Buzzard’s Lompoc, California home. Investigative Reporter Anne Emerson spoke with Bill Garcia, a Private Investigator who had been searching for Melodee not too far from where she was found, about the grim outcome. He reveals a little more information from a conversation a friend had with Ashlee that makes more sense today than it did weeks ago.

Army OB-GYN Accused of SECRETLY RECORDING PATIENTS?! | #truecrime Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-23 | Army Maj. Blaine McGraw, a military OB-GYN, is at the center of what some officials are calling one of the largest sexual assault investigations in U.S. military history. The first allegation against McGraw was reported Oct. 17, 2025, at Carl R. Darnall Army Medical Center at Fort Hood, Texas, after a patient told authorities he secretly recorded her during a medical exam. Col. Kamil Sztalkoper, Fort Hood’s director of public affairs, said the Army Criminal Investigation Division responded within an hour and immediately opened an investigation. The Army suspended McGraw from clinical duties later that day. Prosecutors allege McGraw secretly recorded at least 44 women during intimate exams between January and December 2025. He faces charges that include indecent visual recording, willful disobedience of a superior officer, and making a false official statement. Attorneys have filed Federal Tort Claims Act complaints on behalf of seven patients against the Department of the Army, the Defense Health Agency, and the Department of Defense. #truecrime #predator

Shoplifting Suspect PULLS GUN on COP?! | #truecrime #caughtoncamera Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-22 | What began as a routine shoplifting investigation inside an Ohio Walmart escalated in seconds into a near-fatal encounter — all captured on police body camera. Police say 21-year-old Shane Newman, who had an active warrant, was being searched inside a loss-prevention office when he suddenly pulled a concealed handgun and pointed it at an officer. Newman allegedly pulled the trigger, but the gun malfunctioned and did not fire. As the officer held his fire to avoid hitting a Walmart employee, a loss-prevention associate named Conrad Piero tackled Newman, knocking the gun from his hand and preventing a possible shooting. Newman now faces attempted murder, felonious assault on a peace officer, robbery, drug charges, and more. His alleged accomplice, Katerina Jeffrey, was also arrested after police say ammunition was found in her pocket. #truecrime #caughtoncamera

Grandma Murdered For NO REASON | #truecrime #murder Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-21 | Ronnie Locklear was waiting on his wife of 52 years to come home for the family's holiday dinner on December 14 when he got a call he says he still can't believe. Marie Locklear, 74, had been shot and was in the hospital — where she would later die. The suspect is a violent felon named Cheyenne Woods. Authorities say Woods hijacked an ambulance at gunpoint after making a bogus 911 call, then crashed the emergency vehicle into Marie Locklear's car as he sped down the rural roads between Pembroke and Lumberton, North Carolina. After the crash, Woods got out and inexplicably opened fire on Locklear in what Robeson County Sheriff Burnis Wilkins calls a "senseless act of murder." She leaves behind a large family who are devastated by her killing. Locklear's family was in attendance on Monday, December 15, as a magistrate denied bond for their mother's alleged murderer and apparent career criminal. Court records show Woods was released in 2022 after serving only five years of a 15-year sentence for second-degree murder, and was previously convicted of armed robber in a case in which he was also initially charged with murder. Woods remains in jail and faces over a dozen felony charges related to the latest incident. #truecrime

Woman Left Baby to DIE While She Got a BBL | #truecrime #patheticparents Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-18 | In the trial of Visalia mother Maya Hernandez, prosecutors and the defense presented sharply contrasting closing arguments over the death of her one-year-old son, Amilio, after she left him and his two-year-old brother, Mateo, in a hot car while attending a cosmetic procedure in June. The prosecution argued Hernandez deliberately left her children in the car for hours, prioritizing her spa visit over their safety. They argued she knew the risks, ignored them, and caused Amilio’s death, meeting the standard for second-degree murder. The defense argued Hernandez was negligent but did not act with the intent or “implied malice” required for murder. They argued she mistakenly believed the car’s air conditioning would stay on and accepted responsibility for child endangerment and involuntary manslaughter, but denied murder. After two days of deliberations, the jury convicted Hernandez of one count of child abuse but deadlocked on second-degree murder and involuntary manslaughter. Sentencing for the child abuse charge is set for January 12, 2026, and prosecutors have not announced whether they will retry her on the other charges. #truecrime #patheticparents

Shopliftings Effect On Poor Neighborhoods | #caughtoncamera Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-18 | A small Baltimore grocery store is hoping that a group of teenage shoplifters apologize for their recent actions and understand the negative effects of their behavior. Security cameras caught the three teens walking into the Edison Super Market, where they quickly began grabbing items off the shelves and refrigerators, before running back out the front door. The owner, Hossian, while frustrated about the thievery, has decided not to involve the police. He had originally posted the video onto his social media, but has since taken it down to protect the teenager’s identities."I have a son also, I have nephews also. I feel it," he explained. "I thought their mother, their father, or maybe they’re gonna say Mr. Hossian, sorry."However, local shoppers worry that the shoplifting could lead to the store abandoning the area, leaving many without a convenient store for grocery shopping. At this moment, no arrests have been made in connection to this case. #truecrime #caughtoncamera #robbery

Dick & Pee Wee — The Truth Behind South Carolinas Most Prolific Serial Killer Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-17 | The Redneck Charles Manson — It's just one of the nicknames for South Carolina's most prolific serial killer, Donald "Pee Wee" Gaskins. Though Gaskins claimed to have killed more than 100 people, prosecutors were only able to pin him with a little more than a dozen. The killings spanned the 1960's, 70's and 80's. His final murder was Rudolph Tyner, a fellow inmate who he killed with an improvised explosive made to look like a radio. Dick Harpootlian, who represented Alex Murdaugh during his double murder trial was a prosecutor at the time. He got the death penalty for Gaskins, but not before Gaskins tried to have Harpootlian's 4 year-old daughter murdered. He tells Investigative Reporter Anne Emerson that Gaskins sent him Christmas cards until he was executed and describes the killer's maniacal and manipulative ways.Harpootlian just released a book about Gaskins called "DIg Me a Grave."

Grieving Mother BEGS For Answers.... | #truecrime Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-17 | Meagan Reed, a 28-year-old mother, disappeared in August 2018 after spending a weekend with her longtime boyfriend in Boone County, West Virginia. When she didn’t return home or respond to calls, her mother, Alice Cooper, went looking for her. The boyfriend’s home was empty, and no one nearby could explain where Meagan was. Nearly two weeks later, Alice learned through Facebook that a body had been found in a remote creek. The remains were severely decomposed and could not be identified by facial features, but tattoos on Meagan’s back later confirmed it was her. Authorities ruled the primary cause of death as a fentanyl overdose, with drowning listed as a possible contributing factor. Alice does not believe her daughter ended up in the creek on her own and questions why no one called 911 if Meagan overdosed, believing her body was intentionally hidden. Almost seven years later, the case remains unsolved. As holidays approach, the grief continues for Meagan’s family. Cooper now relies on photos and stories to help Meagan’s children remember their mother and continues to publicly ask for information that could explain what happened. Boone County Sheriff Chad Barker says the investigation is still active and believes someone knows more about Meagan’s death. Authorities are urging anyone with information to come forward in hopes of finally bringing answers to her family. #unsolved #victimimpact

Is Adam Emery Still Alive?! | #unsolvedmysteries #criminallyobsessed Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-17 | Police are still searching for answers in this 35-year-old Rhode Island murder mystery, after the suspected murderer vanished. In 1993, Adam Emery was convicted of killing Jason Bass in a case that combined mistaken identity, road rage, self defense, and a disappearing act. After his conviction, Emery was sent home and told to wear an ankle monitoring device until sentencing. Instead, that night he vanished. His car was found abandoned on top of the Newport Bridge, and he and his wife were nowhere to be found. Did they fake their deaths or did they jump? It was anyone's guess until Elena Emery's skull was found months later, but Adam's remains have never been recovered. Some believe he fled the country without Elena but others believe the two went into the water together. What do you think?

Groomer Dyes Dog GREEN Without Consent?! | #truecrime Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-15 | Would a refund and an apology be enough for you if your pet came home green? A Michigan woman, Janice Johnson, picked up her dog from a groomer and was shocked to find his ears and tail dyed bright green—something she had explicitly said she did not want. After nearly seven hours with no updates, Johnson discovered the color was permanent and wouldn’t wash out. When confronted, groomer Leandra Boyles admitted she dyed RJ without permission, saying it was “better to ask for forgiveness than permission” and that surprising clients helps grow her business. Johnson felt her dog had been turned into an unwanted “art project,” and with no real oversight in the grooming industry, she posted her experience online to warn others. Boyles later refunded her and apologized, but Johnson may be stuck with a green dog for up to a year. #animalcrimes

Sneaker Bandits Trade Jordans for JAIL | #truecrime #robberies Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-13 | A pitstop for Redbull at a Wawa helped deputies bust a nearly $1 million sneaker-theft ring. Martin County Sheriff's Office investigators say a crew of burglars cut a hole in the roof of the Treasure Coast Mall the night of October 21, 2025, and spent hours emptying the store of high-dollar shoes like Jordans. But now Sheriff John Budensiek says the thieves are trading Jordans for jail-issue slippers after investigators busted four members of an alleged multi-state sneaker bandit ring. Budensiek says the four people involved in the October heist gave themselves away when they stopped for energy drinks at a convenience store after leaving the crime scene. Police then traced their license plate and uncovered their involvement in identical burglaries stretching from Florida to Mississippi. Authorities set up a sting and caught the four suspects in the act of trying to pull off a similar sneaker burglary on November 17 outside the Volusia Mall. Keiko Davis, Christopher McCray, and Jimmel Raiford were arrested on site, while Tyrone Howard was caught days later. All four are now awaiting transfer to Martin County to face charges. #truecrime
Explosiv Tesla Fire RESCUE Caught on Camera | #caughtoncamera #heroes Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-13 | A Virginia State Trooper and several good Samaritans helped pull a man from a burning vehicle the morning of December 5 after a crash along I-95. The trooper spotted a 2024 Tesla Model Y off the side of the road that had struck a tree. As he stopped to check on the driver, the Tesla caught fire. The vehicle’s doors were allegedly locked and would not open. The trooper broke the window, cut through the airbag and, with the assistance of bystanders, pulled the driver from the burning car. Police say the driver sustained serious but non-life-threatening injuries and was taken to a nearby hospital. Investigators are looking into winter weather conditions as a possible factor. The crash remains under investigation. #caughtoncamera
$3.5K Worth of Jewelry Stolen Using Square App Scheme | #truecrime #heists Criminally Obsessed 2025-12-12 | A clever scam allowed two men to walk out of a Rhode Island jewelry store with $3,500 worth of jewelry police say they didn't pay for. Providence Police say the two men walked into the Copacetic Rudely Elegant jewelry store on December 2, and discussed a purchase with the owner, Donald Beohner. According to Boehner, the man making the purchase used the Square payment app to finalize the sale. Meanwhile, Beohner said the second man started distracting him. "When they touched their phone, they were able to touch my phone and change the setting on it and make it so it looked like a cash sale rather than a credit card, but the approval came in just like it was a Square approval," Beohner said. Less than an hour after they were at Copacetic, surveillance video in front of Jade Jewelry, about ten minutes away, appears to show the same men entering the store. There, they tried to sell their stolen jewelry, but were turned away. At this moment, no arrests have been made in relation to the case. #truecrime
