Remains of over 100 dogs unearthed on the grounds of a "no-kill" animal rescue in California

And those were just the intact remains. Several more dog skulls and other bones were found as well.



The rescue shelter's owner has since released a statement insisting that they do not kill dogs except on very rare occasions and that the public should wait for "all of the facts" before drawing any conclusions - which, okay fine but honestly even just the 130 or so definitely dead dogs that have been found so far is a LOT for only two years, it's more than one out of every ten dogs they took in during that time. And there's hundreds of dogs they took in that are just missing, so IMO if there's exonerating facts out there waiting to be reported they must be pretty darn amazing facts.
We never should have trusted the "Kari Lake Animal Rescue Center".

Woman has her driveway stolen from her Florida home as part of Nigerian scam

The wild thing about this is, the person whose driveway was destroyed wasn't even the actual target of the scam, the contractor who did it was. The homeowner's address was just drawn out of a hat by the scammer, completely random.

Police say someone claiming to be from a real estate company hired a contractor to update the driveway. However, the contractor abruptly stopped working on the driveway when a $15,000 check provided to pay for the job bounced.
The contractor tried to get out of paying for a replacement driveway at first and was all like "we're the real victims here" which wasn't completely wrong but - dude. How are you going to perform a job like this without even once trying to make contact with someone actually living in the house first. It's not exactly a pizza delivery.

"It was not immediately clear how the alleged scammer would have benefited from the deal." - yeh, that's just wild.

Can vaccines sue for defamation?

Idaho mom, who claimed vaccines killed twin babies, now charged with murder
An Idaho mother is facing murder charges for the deaths of her 18-month-old twins, after previously claiming vaccines were the cause of their deaths.

New court records obtained by KTVB show that a Payette County grand jury indicted Andrea Shaw on two first-degree murder charges, alleging she killed her 18-month-old twins by suffocation in May 2025.
The twins were found dead in a shared bed in Northgate Mobile Park in Payette, Idaho. At the time, Payette Police Department said they were treating the case as a homicide.

Just days after their children died, Shaw and her husband went on a podcast funded by Children's Health Defense, an anti-vaccine group previously led by Robert F. Kennedy Jr., now the Secretary of the U.S. Health and Human Services, in which Andrea Shaw claimed vaccines were to blame for their deaths.
