Search for Savannah Guthrie’s Mom Nancy Guthrie Could Take ‘Years’: Sheriff
Authorities are shedding light on a potential timeline into the ongoing investigation surrounding Savannah Guthrie’s mom Nancy Guthrie’s disappearance.
Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos told The New York Times on Friday, February 13, that investigators are still “looking hard,” with about 400 people on the case. While he is certain that the team will find Nancy and her abductor, he noted he’s unsure of when that will happen.
“Maybe it’s an hour from now,” Nanos said of the search. “Maybe it’s weeks or months or years from now. But we won’t quit. We’re going to find Nancy. We’re going to find this guy.”
News broke on February 1 that Nancy had been reported missing by a family member who called 911. (Nancy shared daughters Savannah and Annie Guthrie and son Camron Guthrie with Charles Guthrie, who died in 1988 after a heart attack.)
The search to find Savannah Guthrie’s missing mother, Nancy Guthrie, is “a race against time,” according to Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos. Nanos appeared during the Tuesday, February 3, broadcast of the Today show and said he hopes “that window hasn’t closed” as the investigation into 84-year-old Nancy’s disappearance continues. “We took some samples that […]
As the search continues, multiple SWAT, forensics officers and law enforcement vehicles were spotted in Nancy’s neighborhood on Friday, according to CNN and NewsNation. CNN reported that police officers converged on two locations but did not make any arrests. Authorities did question a man about his apparent involvement, but he was ultimately released.
“We may see a couple more of these as this goes on,” CNN Chief Law Enforcement and Intelligence Analyst John Miller told the outlet, speculating the case will likely move fast since there’s a “victim in the balance.” He added, “I think we saw that again last night, but this particular lead is not going to go any further.”
A representative for the Sheriff’s department also confirmed that there had been “law enforcement activity” in the area on Friday related to Nancy’s potential kidnapping case.
“Because this is a joint investigation, at the request of the FBI, no additional information is currently available,” the statement read via X. “There is no press briefing scheduled for tonight regarding the Nancy Guthrie investigation.”
Authorities are seemingly intensifying their search for Savannah Guthrie’s mother, Nancy Guthrie, who has been missing for nearly two weeks. Multiple SWAT, forensics officers and law enforcement cars were spotted in Nancy’s Tucson, Arizona, neighborhood on Friday, February 13, according to CNN and NewsNation. CNN reported that police officers converged on two locations without making […]
Savannah, meanwhile, has been absent from the Today show since her mom’s disappearance but has issued several public pleas to “bring her home.” In a February 4 Instagram video, Savannah and her siblings shared a personal message to Nancy.
“Mommy, if you are hearing this, you are a strong woman. You are God’s precious daughter, Nancy,” Savannah said at the time. “We believe and know that even in this valley, He is with you. Everyone is looking for you, Mommy, everywhere. We will not rest.”
Annie added, “Nancy is our mother, we are her children. She is our beacon. She holds fast to joy and all of life’s circumstances. She chooses joy day after day despite having already passed through great trials of pain and grief. We are always going to be merely human. Just normal human people who need our mom. Mama, if you’re listening, we need you to come home. We miss you.”
Days later, Savannah shared home videos with Nancy. “Our lovely mom. 💛,” she wrote via Instagram on Thursday, February 12. “We will never give up on her. Thank you for your prayers and hope.”

Simone Biles is getting the full princess treatment from her husband, Jonathan Owens, in honor of Valentine’s Day 2026.
“Always spoiling me,” Biles, 28, wrote via Instagram on Sunday, February 15, sharing a selfie with Owens, 30, at the Bottega Veneta boutique in Italy.
Biles and Owens traveled to Milan to cheer on Team USA in the 2026 Winter Olympics, finding time to make a pit stop at the Bottega Veneta store.
“I never knew Bottega did this, might be a special Milan thing?!” Biles captioned a follow-up slide of a white handbag accessorized with a “SBO” gold monogram on the exterior. “But how f***in cute?”
Jonathan Owens is doting on wife Simone Biles while she competes for a slot on Team USA’s gymnastics team for the 2024 Paris Olympics. On Saturday, June 29, Biles, 27, revealed via Instagram Story that Owens, 28, gifted her with couture surprises. “WHYYYYY 🥰🥰 🥺🥺,” Biles captioned a photo of Owens in a car next […]
Biles did not immediately reveal what she and Owens picked up at the designer shop.
“The shopping in Milan is elite,” Owens succinctly wrote via his Instagram Stories on Sunday. “[I’m a] long way from St. Louis, man.”
After growing up in Missouri, Owens met Biles in 2020 on the celebrity dating app Raya.
“It was one of the few times in her life where everything was just shut off and she couldn’t do anything,” he told Texas Monthly in 2021 of connecting with the gymnast amid the coronavirus pandemic. “We used it to get to know each other — really get to know each other. It created our bond and made it stronger. Now, I’m so thankful.”
Owens, however, wasn’t clued into Biles’ career as the most decorated American gymnast of all time.
“I didn’t know who she was,” he told the outlet. “I just hadn’t heard of her, and when I told her that, that’s one of the things she liked.”
Owens has since become Biles’ No. 1 cheerleader, even dutifully attending the 2024 Summer Olympics when she made her long-awaited return to competition following her mental health-related withdrawal from the 2020 Tokyo Games.
“It is not much motivation you need to do, just because you don’t want to put extra, added pressure on anyone,” he exclusively told Us Weekly in July 2024 of supporting Biles. “I just tell her, ‘Go do your thing, baby.’”
Biles, who married Owens in 2023, also returns the favor by attending his NFL games. (Owens is a safety for the Chicago Bears after previously playing for the Green Bay Packers and the Houston Texans.)
“You get a different type of focus whenever you just have this one person that you’re focusing on,” Owens told Us in 2024. “I ain’t saying there’s something wrong with being single, but for me, knowing myself, I’ve played a lot better since [meeting Simone]. I’ve just been focused and locked in, and you come home, talk about my day and play with the dogs, you know what I mean? That’s just kind of like our thing.”
Jonathan Owens is one proud husband. Owens, 29, gushed over his wife, Simone Biles, the most-decorated gymnast in history after taking home four medals at the 2024 Paris Summer Olympics, during a Chicago Bears press conference in Chicago on Tuesday, August 6. “It was amazing to watch,” Owens told reporters after Tuesday’s practice with the […]
Biles seldom misses a Bears game either — and always while decked out in custom merch.
“Something you guys might not know about my husband, Jonathan, is he is actually an undrafted, D2 product. This is his eighth year in the league,” Biles said in an October 2025 TikTok video. “He’s broken down barriers, statistics and undrafted means a guy wasn’t drafted to a team, but they are free to sign with any team as an undrafted free agent. Another Bears win, well-deserved! Proud wife. Four in a row — that’s my man.”
Owens and the Bears made it to the playoffs this year, getting eliminated just shy of the conference championships.
Bianca Censori
Called To Testify In Kanye’s Legal Battle
Published
Bianca Censori could be taking the witness stand soon … at least if a former Kanye West employee gets his way.
According to new court documents, obtained by TMZ, Tony Saxon — the ex-project manager suing Kanye over the chaotic Malibu mansion remodel — says he’s calling Bianca to testify in the upcoming trial, currently set for February 21.
It’s unclear what specific testimony he believes she can provide, but she’s now potentially being lined up as a witness in the case.
As we previously reported … Saxon sued Kanye, claiming he was hired in September 2021 as project manager, caretaker and 24/7 security for Kanye’s Malibu property. In the lawsuit, Saxon alleges he worked brutal 16 hour days and was forced to sleep on the floor using a coat as makeshift bedding while overseeing the remodel.
Saxon claims things spiraled in November 2021 when Kanye allegedly demanded he remove all the home’s windows and electricity. According to the suit, Saxon raised safety concerns, warning the moves posed “extreme danger,” especially after Kanye allegedly insisted on bringing large generators inside something Saxon feared could spark a fire hazard.
He also claims Kanye threatened him, saying he’d be considered “an enemy” if he didn’t comply, and told him, “If you don’t do what I say, you’re not going to work for me.” Saxon says he refused and was fired on the spot.
Tony’s suing for unpaid wages and labor code violations and potentially dragging Bianca into the courtroom drama.
Kanye has denied all allegations. In a November 2023 filing, his attorney argued that even if Saxon suffered damages — which Kanye does not admit — they were caused by other parties, not Kanye, and any liability should be reduced accordingly. Kanye also claimed Saxon performed work without his knowledge and asked the court to toss the lawsuit entirely.

For years, Apple TV+ has been associated with very specific success stories. For instance, its biggest cultural hits have largely been feel-good, accessible shows that invited broad audiences in, and it shaped expectations around what kind of series could truly thrive on the platform.
That is why a recent shift in Apple TV+’s internal rankings is actually more significant than it might look at first glance. One of the service’s most slow-burning originals, a series that is built on ambiguity, dread, and corporate paranoia, is now occupying space that was traditionally dominated by a much lighter and more crowd-pleasing Ted Lasso.
That series is Severance, created by Dan Erickson and executive-produced and directed by Ben Stiller. Severance has never been designed for passive viewing. Its premise follows employees who undergo a procedure that separates their work memories from their personal lives completely. Over time, that approach helped the show build a dedicated following, but it also positioned it as an unlikely candidate to challenge Apple TV+’s most recognizable hit, Ted Lasso, which currently sits at the #5 spot. And yet, as of February 12, 2026, Severance is sitting at #4 on Apple TV+’s Top 10 chart in the United States.
Apple’s Bold Move Paves the Way for ‘Severance’ Season 3
Severance has spent much of its existence in a delicate position, with long gaps between seasons, rising production costs, and behind-the-scenes complications. All this has made its future feel deliberately opaque, even as audience interest continued to grow. That uncertainty has lingered in the background for years, especially after the show’s ambitious second season raised questions about how sustainable its scale really was.
Behind the scenes, however, Apple appears to have been thinking several steps ahead. The show’s cultural footprint, critical standing, and unusually deep fan engagement have all played a role in shifting how Apple views its place on the platform. That shift has now become concrete, since Apple has officially acquired the full intellectual property rights to Severance. This has brought the series entirely in-house under Apple Studios. The move not only clears the path for Season 3 but might also unlock a fourth season, with the door open for future expansions beyond the main storyline.
Severance Seasons 1 and 2 are available to watch on Apple TV. The show has also been renewed for Season 3, whereas Season 4 is currently in talks. Stay tuned to Collider for more updates.

On Christmas Day, Jack Black and Paul Rudd starred in Anaconda, a modern reboot of the 1997 film of the same name. But unlike its predecessor, this one leaned more toward comedy than horror. Since its release, Anaconda received mixed reviews from fans and critics but was still a box-office success. Two months later, the film continues to find its audience.
Anaconda follows Doug McCallister (Black) and Ronald “Griff” Griffen Jr. (Rudd), childhood friends who team up to film a reboot of Anaconda, only to be attacked by a giant anaconda snake. The movie is filled with meta-humor, poking fun at Sony Pictures, and features an Ice Cube cameo, who previously starred in the 1997 film. Since its release, Anaconda has received a fair critics’ score of 48% and an audience score of 75% on Rotten Tomatoes and has generated over $133 million worldwide. Recently, Anaconda has been doing well on the VOD charts.
While Anaconda has yet to announce its streaming home, the movie is available to rent on Prime Video. Currently, it ranks #6 on Amazon’s Top Movies chart, between Dracula and One Battle After Another. Collider’s Aidan Kelley gave Anaconda a 5/10 in his review, praising Rudd and Black’s performances and some of its comedy, but noting the “big lack of giant snakes for a giant snake movie” and criticizing the pacing in the final act.
What To Watch if You Like 2025’s ‘Anaconda’
If 2025’s Anaconda reboot entertained you, and you want to watch something in a similar vein, but without having to sit through the 1997 action-horror, there are a handful of titles that could scratch that itch. First that comes to mind is the modern Jumanji movies, where Black plays Professor Sheldon “Shelly” Oberon, one of the playable characters. He appears in both the 2017 and 2019 films, and it’s reported that he’s set to return in the upcoming fourth film, which is scheduled for release in December 2026.
If you like the modern meta-comedy that Anaconda provided, then The Naked Gun is another good recommendation. This 2025 action comedy stars Liam Neeson, and it’s the fourth installment of the Naked Gun films. The movie brings back slapstick comedy from the ’80s, is filled with familiar genre tropes and jokes that resonate with a modern audience, and features some meta-humor.
Anaconda is available to rent on Prime Video. Follow Collider to keep up to date with the latest updates.

Shaquille O’Neal recently discussed his once-strained relationship with his children.
During an episode of rapper TI‘s “expediTIously” podcast, the former Los Angeles Lakers star was candid about how his divorce from his ex-wife, Shaunie Henderson, affected his bond with his kids.
Prior to this, Shaquille O’Neal slammed online blogs for reportedly spreading “clickbait” rumors about his alleged relationship with a married woman.

Shaquille O’Neal Shares What He’s ‘Learned’ After Marriage And Touches On His Relationship With Kids
During his conversation with TI, Shaq reflected on the lessons he’s learned since his previous marriage.
“I learned that I know better than to be out here bullsh-tting,” the NBA champion said. “Sometimes you just get caught up. But we know better.”
Shaq was married to Henderson from 2002 to 2009 before officially splitting in 2011. Elsewhere in the episode, he acknowledged that his divorce impacted his children, though he noted they are thriving today.
“In all of that, I’m just happy and blessed that they’ve forgiven me. Because me and my babies didn’t talk for a while,” he said. “I understood that, but now we’re starting to get closer. I’m teaching my boys to be better than me. Papa was a Rolling Stone. You don’t need to be like me.”

Shareef O’Neal Talks About His Previous Relationship With His Father
Shaq’s comments about his children follow those of his son, Shareef O’Neal, who discussed his father during an appearance on the “Heir Time” podcast.
“The first few years it was pretty hard,” Shareef said about his parents’ divorce. “We were all too young to kind of understand what’s going on. Mom and dad aren’t going to be together. It wasn’t like a ‘choose a side’ thing.”
Shareef added that his parents didn’t seem to make things easier for them as kids when they were going through their marital woes.
“My mom [was] like, ‘If you guys wanna go with your dad, go ahead.’ My dad’s like, ‘If y’all wanna go with your mom, go ahead,’” he continued.
Things, however, eventually smoothed over, with Shareef giving props to both of his parents for how well they work together for their kids’ sake.

“They never come around and it’s a problem. My mom is remarried now. She can bring her husband around and dad [can] dap him up and have a conversation. So, I respect them both for never putting the stress on us,” Shareef said.

The NBA Star’s Ex-Wife Wrote About Their Marriage In Her Memoir
Henderson previously detailed her marriage to Shaq during her tenure on the VH1 reality series “Basketball Wives.” She shared even more in the pages of her memoir, “Undefeated: Changing the Rules and Winning on My Own Terms,” according to PEOPLE.
One section of the book that captured many readers’ attention was Henderson’s line: “Looking back, I don’t know that I was ever really in love with the man.” Shaq replied a day later with a message that read: “I understand… I wouldn’t have been in love with me either. Wishing you all the best. All love, Shaq. Trust me I get it.”
Henderson later said the viral line was taken out of context, and that she can’t change how people feel about what she’s written. “… it’s my book, my truth, and it’s my legacy.”

Shaquille O’Neal Calls Out The ‘Clickbait’ Rumors About Him
According to The Blast, Shaq recently responded to the claims that he was having an inappropriate relationship with his friend’s wife. During the interview, Shaq dismissed the claims as “clickbait” and affirmed that he would never cross a boundary with those in his inner circle.
“Listen, everybody wants their page to be famous, I understand it. You have to understand, you don’t go to people’s wives. That’s something you just don’t do,” he said, adding, “I’m 53, so I’m done with all that.”
Shaq’s $180,000 Problem…
Prior to these events, Shaq dealt with even more drama when his $180,000 custom Range Rover SUV was stolen.
The Blast reported that Shaq’s luxury vehicle was supposed to be transported to Louisiana, but it never arrived, prompting questions from law enforcement.
Authorities initially said hackers may have been responsible for the heist, noting they could’ve hacked the custom detailer’s system and used the information to send the NBA star’s car elsewhere.
CBS News shared in December 2025 that a man had been arrested in connection with the missing vehicle in New York.
The stolen Range Rover has not been recovered, according to authorities. In fact, they believe it may be somewhere in the Middle East.

Talk about calm under pressure!
It’s good to see the 44th President of the United States enjoying himself, because he’s been dealing with some B.S. lately.
Just days ago, he was responding to a video that depicted him and his wife as apes, which was later shared by President Donald Trump.
During an interview with Brian Tyler Cohen, Barack referred to both the social media posts and the administration’s public behaviors as a “clown show” … and he lamented the loss of “decorum” and “propriety” as it relates to the highest office in the land.
President Trump passed the blame onto an unnamed White House staffer … and, he said he wouldn’t apologize for the gaffe.
Nancy Guthrie still remains missing as the investigation into her disappearance enters its third week. The latest development in the search to bring her home involves a crucial element of DNA.
Authorities have confirmed that the DNA found on the black glove recovered close to Guthrie’s home is a match for the gloves worn by the suspect captured on the surveillance footage at her front door.

Positive DNA Match For Gloves Worn By Nancy Guthrie Suspect And Those Found Close To Her Home
Per TMZ, a spokesperson for the FBI confirmed to the outlet that a black glove, that was previously recovered from the area close to Nancy’s home, contains a positive DNA match to the gloves worn by the man seen on the surveillance footage in front of the 84-year-old’s home the morning of her disappearance.
The FBI shared that a total of 16 gloves were recovered from the area surrounding her home, however the majority of those were gloves worn by volunteer searchers who disposed of them outside during their search efforts.
“The one with the DNA profile recovered is different and appears to match the gloves of the subject in the surveillance video,” the FBI said via statement, according to TMZ.

The DNA results were received on Saturday, February 14, and within the next 24 hours they will undergo quality control inspection before being entered in the FBI’s national DNA database.

Sheriff In The Case Offers Disheartening Update About The Search For Nancy Guthrie
On Friday, February 13, Sheriff Chris Nanos, from the Pima County Sheriff’s Department, said via the New York Times that the search for Guthrie, could take much longer than her loved ones hope for.
“Maybe it’s an hour from now,” Nanos said. “Maybe it’s weeks or months or years from now. But we won’t quit. We’re going to find Nancy. We’re going to find this guy.”
His comments come days after authorities have detained and released multiple people for questioning in the case without resulting in any concrete evidence to link them to Guthrie’s disappearance.

Per reports, while speaking to Fox News, Sheriff Nanos revealed that he recently reached out to Savannah regarding the investigation, but she allegedly told him that “she has her own people and didn’t need him.”
The Pima County Sheriff’s Department has been investigating Guthrie’s disappearance from the beginning but have also faced criticism for allegedly bungling the search and recovery efforts.

“Actually, the FBI just wanted to send the one or two they found by the crime scene, closest to it – mile, mile and a half… I said ‘No, why do that? Let’s just send them all to where all the DNA exists, all the profiles and the markers exist.’ They agreed, makes sense,” Nanos said, per KVOA.
Authorities Previously Announced Investigation Of Additional Suspect
On February 12, a new video was revealed of a man recorded 5 miles from Guthrie’s wearing similar clothing and items as the man caught via Nest video at Guthrie’s home when she disappeared, according to TMZ.
The FBI and the Pima County Sheriff’s Department are now closely examining the new footage, and the man in the images is on their radar.
As of now, it’s unclear if the person in the new footage is the same person seen in the person video or if there are multiple people.
Authorities said they noticed that the man in the recent footage, which was captured via Ring camera, is carrying what appears to be a similar backpack as the first potential suspect, and both sets of footage were recorded around the time Guthrie disappeared.

Per the outlet, the backpack in question has been confirmed to be an Ozark Trail Hiker sold by Walmart.
Former FBI Agent Raises Theory That Nancy Guthrie Surveillance Footage Could Be ‘Staged’
During a recent episode of her Katie Couric Media Substack Live, former “Today” show anchor Katie Couric interviewed two retired FBI agents regarding Guthrie’s case, according to Parade.
One of the agents, Kristy Kottis, said she believes the surveillance footage “seemed and felt like a staged video,” largely due to the suspect’s behavior.
Kottis pointed specifically to the individual’s heavily layered clothing, the brief moment when they looked directly toward the camera, and the way the gun was placed in front of the suspect’s waist, which made its presence conspicuously obvious.
“It was an individual, we don’t know whether it’s a male or female, showing us what they want us to see,” she said.

2 Years Before ‘The Wire,’ Its Creator Made a Gritty 6-Part HBO Crime Miniseries That Aged Perfectly
The Wire is not only one of the best shows to ever air on television, but it’s also one of the most important pieces of pop culture in American history. Overlooked upon release, the Baltimore-set HBO crime drama by David Simon explores police procedure, the drug trade, politics, education, and journalism with the vigor of a riveting novel and the precision of a tell-all documentary.
What happens in The Wire, a series framed around the systemic failure and neglect of our most trusted institutions, represents America in the 21st century, where we’ve seemingly lost our way. Before aspiring to such lofty heights, Simon, a former Baltimore Sun crime reporter, cemented his journalistic voice for an HBO miniseries that aired two years before The Wire‘s premiere. Based on a book by Simon and Ed Burns, The Corner, which features various cast members and hallmarks of its spiritual successor, is every Wire obsessive’s next watch.
‘The Corner’ Laid the Groundwork for ‘The Wire’
From the outset, Simon aspired to forever alter the fabric of the television medium, which was then dominated by sensationalized police procedurals and lurid cop thrillers. His journalistic instincts first pushed the boundaries of network dramas on Homicide, also based on a book by Simon. He took things to an even grittier and unflinching scale with The Corner, a six-episode miniseries about the life of an impoverished family amid the rampant drug trade in West Baltimore that became the prototype for The Wire.
Airing on HBO in 2000, The Corner follows Gary McCullough (the recently deceased T.K. Carter), his ex-wife Fran Boyd (Khandi Alexander), and their son DeAndre (Sean Nelson), whose lives have crumbled after his parents succumb to drug addiction. The street-wise and assured DeAndre must hold his own against the perils of the slums of Baltimore, as his quest for education and familial stability is compromised by the alluring pathway to dealing drugs — a quicker way to earn some much-needed cash for the family. Fans of The Wire will take delight in seeing familiar faces in the cast, including Clarke Peters, Lance Reddick, Corey Parker Robinson, Robert F. Chew, and Delaney Williams. Every episode is directed by prolific character actor Charles S. Dutton.
David Simon Revolutionized Gritty Television With HBO’s ‘The Corner’
As expected, The Corner, which won an Emmy for Outstanding Miniseries, raises the bar for grittiness, making The Wire look like a glossy Hollywood soundstage musical. Something with this much grain and visual grime making it to a mainstream platform on HBO spoke to the channel’s artistic fearlessness and curiosity. Sentimentality is nowhere to be found in the series, with Simon and Burns crafting this unforgiving world with the sobering authenticity it deserves. Showrunners tend to find some unseemly fetishization with neighborhoods hindered by poverty and crime, but the duo’s background in journalism and law enforcement allows Baltimore to appear mundane and a reflection of decades’ worth of government neglect. Simon and Burns exhibit restraint on their own end, as they limit their scope to the troubles of DeAndre and his run-ins with the drug trade, which makes this weighty treatise on the decay of urban America into an intimately constructed character drama.
With The Wire, David Simon, thanks to contributions from Hollywood directors like Ernest Dickerson and crime novelists like Richard Price, sharpened his abilities as a dramatist and narrative storyteller, attributes that eased the show into the good graces of casual TV audiences. The Corner is less engaging on an emotional level for the audience, as everything on screen is more or less a reflection of a pre-existing world. Thanks to Dutton’s narration and interviews with the subjects, the series never lets you gloss over the text’s nonfictional roots. In the shadow of the “hood” crime thrillers of the ’90s, drug-running and activity in the projects were lurid cinematic devices, but Simon urges the audience that this downtrodden lifestyle could happen to anyone, including Gary, who once lived an upstanding, healthy middle-class life.
Things that would’ve been marginalized or cheapened in other shows are treated with austerity in The Corner, particularly the characterization of DeAndre, a teenager who carries the burden of his entire family. Dabbling in illicit crime circles is a punishing, necessary evil for DeAndre, and not a proud demonstration of his independence and toughness. Sean Nelson’s performance retroactively works as a composite of some of The Wire‘s most conflicted characters, from the street’s Robin Hood, Omar Little (Michael K. Williams), to the matured corner veteran, Bodie (J.D. Williams). DeAndre is emblematic of the modern-day Greek tragedy that is the average urban neighborhood in America. He is forced to engage with the American Dream as a survival tactic.

What Do You Think Roomies?
Roommates… sometimes family drama goes way too far — and this latest situation out of Florida is a heartbreaking reminder of that. What reportedly started as a tense disagreement inside a shared home quickly spiraled into something no one could take back. Now, 21-year-old Jawan McBride is at the center of a tragedy that has left one family shattered.

Family Feud Over Funds Turns Fatal
According to Miami-Dade County court records, Jawan McBride has been charged with first-degree murder following the death of his brother. Authorities say the incident happened on January 21 at their home on Northwest Fifth Court, just north of Miami. Additionally, reports state that the brothers were arguing over money from a joint CashApp account. Also, the victim allegedly believed McBride had taken funds that belonged to him and confronted him about it.
Authorities Detail Moments Before Tragedy
Police say the disagreement escalated inside the home after the victim demanded money he felt was owed to him and allegedly threatened to take McBride’s paycheck as repayment. Investigators claim there were prior messages that suggested tensions had been building before the confrontation took place.
Authorities allege that during the dispute, McBride armed himself and a physical altercation followed in the living room area. Emergency responders transported the brother to a nearby hospital, where he was later pronounced dead. Additionally, the medical examiner ruled the death a homicide caused by sharp force injuries.
McBride Denied Bond, Remains In Custody
Officials say McBride admitted to the stabbing during questioning. An autopsy discovered the victim suffered a perforated lung, stomach, diaphragm, and small intestine, and his lower left rib was chipped, according to McClatchy News. McBride allegedly admitted that the stabbing stemmed from the feud over money.
He was denied bond and remains detained in the Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center. The victim’s name has not yet been publicly released. Furthermore, the tragic situation has sparked conversations online about money disputes between family members and how quickly conflicts can escalate.

![Heathrow has said passenger numbers were 60% lower in November than before the coronavirus pandemic and there were “high cancellations” among business travellers concerned about being trapped overseas for Christmas as Omicron spreads. The UK’s largest airport said the government’s travel restrictions had dealt a fresh blow to travel confidence and predicted it was likely to take several years for passenger numbers to return to pre-pandemic levels. This week ministers said passengers arriving in the UK would have to take a pre-departure Covid test, as well as a post-flight test, because of fears about the spread of the new variant. “[The] high level of cancellations by business travellers concerned about being trapped overseas because of pre-departure testing shows the potential harm to the economy of travel restrictions,” the airport said in an update. Heathrow said the drop in traveller confidence owing to the new travel restrictions had negated the benefit of reopening the all-important corridor to North America for business and holiday travel last month. Eleven African countries have been added to the government’s red list, requiring travellers to quarantine before reuniting with families. “By allowing Brits to isolate at home, ministers can make sure they are reunited with their loved ones this Christmas,” said John Holland-Kaye, the chief executive of Heathrow. “It would send a strong signal that restrictions on travel will be removed as soon as safely possible to give passengers the confidence to book for 2022, opening up thousands of new jobs for local people at Heathrow. Let’s reunite families for Christmas.” Heathrow said that if the government could safely signal that restrictions would be lifted soon, then employers at Heathrow would have the confidence to hire thousands of staff in anticipation of a boost in business next summer. The airport is expecting a slow start to 2022, finishing next year with about 45 million passengers – just over half of pre-pandemic levels. This week Tui, Europe’s largest package holiday operator, said it expected bookings for next summer to bounce back to 2019 levels. However, Heathrow said on Friday not to expect the aviation industry to recover for several years. “We do not expect that international travel will recover to 2019 levels until at least all travel restrictions (including testing) are removed from all the markets that we serve, at both ends of the route, and there is no risk of new restrictions, such as quarantine, being imposed,” the airport said.](https://wordupnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/02/shutterstock_1100012546-scaled-400x240.jpg)
