Jesus take the wheel! Woman Admits To Letting Husband Move In His Mistress Before Double-Homicide A Maryland woman’s double homicide admission is making national headlines. Ann Anastasi recently plead guilty to plotting and executing a plan to murder her husband and his mistress after she allowed the other woman to move into their home. Authorities report that Anastasi killed Anthony Anastasi, 40, and 25-year-old Jaqueline Riggs with help from her 13-year-old daughter and her daughter’s 18-year-old boyfriend Gabriel Struss. (Wait…..what?!) Struss is accused of the actual murders; shooting Anthony and stabbing Jaqueline. Police believe Riggs was involved with both the wife and the husband. NBC Washington reports: A woman who prosecutors say was in a love triangle with her husband and their live-in mistress pleaded guilty to her role in their slayings. The Anne Arundel County state’s attorney’s office said in a statement that 43-year-old Ann Anastasi pleaded guilty to two counts of first-degree murder Wednesday. On Oct. 5, 2015, police found 40-year-old Anthony Anastasi Jr. fatally shot and 25-year-old Jacqueline Riggs stabbed to death in the basement of the home they shared with Ann Anastasi in Lothian, Maryland. Prosecutors say the three were in a relationship, but Riggs and Anthony Anastasi moved together into the basement. Investigators say Ann Anastasi plotted with her 13-year-old daughter and the girl’s boyfriend, 18-year-old Gabriel Struss, to kill Anthony Anastasi and Riggs. Struss pleaded guilty to first-degree murder in June. During their investigation, police found text messages among all three suspects that referenced the killing of two people. According to the charging documents, Struss sent a text message to the teenage girl, telling her not to talk to the police or he would go to jail for life. In another message, the girl discussed taking the “fall” for the killings for Struss. The 13-year-old girl was charged with two counts of first-degree murder and accessory after the fact. Struss was charged with two counts each of first-degree murder, second-degree murder, conspiracy to commit first-degree murder, conspiracy to commit second-degree murder and the use of a firearm in the commission of a felony crime of violence. This case is crazy. What do YOU think should be the punishment for Ann Anastasi???
Bodybuilder Loses Almost 400 Pounds Arizona man Pasquele “Pat” Brocco turned his unhealthy lifestyle around …and says that women instantly and drastically responded to his new physique . The 31-year-old tells Daily Mail that he used to gorge on 10,000 calories in one sitting — sometimes eating 100 chicken nuggets at a time — but has managed to drop down from 616 pounds to 224 pounds by sticking to spinach, walking and working out daily. Of course, after dropping the fat and picking up the muscle (and letting that beard flourish) Pat says that the ladies are giving him more attention than he’s ever received in his life. But NOT SO FAST. Pat’s happily engaged with a one-year-old son, and says since his fiancee accepted him at over 500 pounds, there’s only one woman for him. “Before people would ignore me. Now, women talk to me.” But there’s only one woman for me, and that’s Jasmyne. Jasmyne met me when I was bigger. She loved me then and she loves me now. She supports my weight loss and goes to the gym with me every day, but she doesn’t love all the attention I get from other women now I’m muscular. However, she’s the only one for me.” Awww, how sweet! This man definitely turned his whole life around… Instagram
Chet Haze Says He Won’t Share His Daughter On Social Media Tom Hanks’ rapper son Chet Haze has a new baby and a new lease on life… Haze posted a video on Instagram telling the world how he’s been sober for over a year — all because of his daughter, who he promises to shield from social media. According to In Touch reports the son of Hanks and Rita Wilson welcomed the baby eight months ago: “Tom and Rita are really excited to have a new granddaughter,” a source says. The couple’s troubled son Chet, 26, conceived his daughter during a drug-fueled one-night stand with a woman named Tiffany. “Tom’s had a lot of issues with Chet over the years, given Chet’s drug and alcohol issues, but this baby has changed all of that,” says the source. “Chet’s now sober and is currently working as a drug counselor. He lives in Santa Monica and pays $2,800 a month in rent, with the help of his dad. He’s telling everyone that this baby truly changed his life.” “Chet is financially supporting the baby, of course, with Tom’s help,” the source says, adding that Tom and Rita don’t mind. “They adore that baby and even spent Halloween with her. She will always be loved and taken care of by the Hanks family.” Y’all already know we are wondering — is this a swirly seed or nah? You know how Chet gets down. Apparently Chet isn’t too happy about the way the media is describing his baby mama though. Hit the flip to see
If you're familiar with Chet Haze, it's probably because social media has basically reduced the rapper son of Tom Hanks to a living meme. Obviously, it's easy to poke fun at the white, privileged offspring of one of America's most celebrated nice-guy actors when the guy chooses to speak with an “urban” accent and previously made the unfortunate decision to pepper his speech with n-bombs. But, it's also easy to forget that Chet is a human being who seems to be making an effort to change himself for the better. After struggling with substance abuse, Chet is sober now; he's carved out a decent acting career for himself, with a recurring part on the Showtime series Shameless , and is his fans learned yesterday, Haze has been a father for quite some time. Chet made the revelation in an Instagram video posted yesterday. He began with an apology for his absence from the 'Gram: “I've been figuring out my life, which is what we're all doing, and social media is all bullsh-t,” Chet tells the camera. “I want to share something today because it's about to be shared anyway in the press, which is the fact that I have a daughter,” he went on to say. “it hasn't been easy making all my mistakes in public. But I'm figuring it out.” “She’s not something to be posted,” he explained. “She’s something that I love, that’s changed my life but the fact is she’s about to be shared with everybody so I wanted you to hear it from me.” Haze checked into rehab last year, and he credits his daughter with his decision to turn his life around: “She's the reason why I turned my life around and got sober,” he says. “I've been sober — for over a year and a half — from everything.” No word on how old the girl is, but our very belated congrats go out to Chet on becoming a dad, as well as to Tom on the new granddaughter!
Naomi Judd is pretty much a national treasure at this point. Which is why it’s extra hard to have to hear that she went through such dark times — times dark enough that she thought it’d be better to take her own life. Naomi, mother of Ashley Judd and former Wynonna Judd , was diagnosed with Hepatitis C in 1991 when she was at the peak of her career. However, in a brand-new interview with People magazine, Judd revealed that it wasn’t the disease that became intolerable for her. Judd reported that in 2013, she went through the darkest depression of her life — so dark, in fact, that she contemplated suicide. On heavy-duty medication cocktails, Judd revealed that she was admitted to various psych wards, and had been to therapy myriad times. Things got so bad that Naomi revealed she began plotting her own demise — jumping from a bridge nearby her Tennessee home. Judd told People, “Nobody can understand it unless you’ve been there.” “Think of your very worst day of your whole life — someone passed away, you lost your job, you found out you were being betrayed, that your child had a rare disease,” she trailed off. “You can take all of those at once and put them together and that’s what depression feels like.” Judd also revealed that a part of her lapse into a bottomless pit depression was a direct result of sexual abuse by an uncle, and detailed a depression so deep that she wouldn’t leave her home. “I literally couldn’t leave the house for weeks,” Judd revealed. “I was completely immobilized and every single second was like a day.” “It’s so beyond making sense but I thought, ‘Surely my family will know that I was in so much pain and I thought they would have wanted me to end that pain [through suicide],’ ” she reasoned. Judd eventually began to emerge from the darkness, and penned her new memoir, River of Time: My Descent Into Depression and How I Emerged With Hope . Though she’s in a much better place than she was over the last four years, she stated she’s not out of the woods yet. “I’m still trying desperately trying to help myself,” she said. “There’s never going to be a pill for it all.” “Those thoughts of suicide don’t come anymore. But I’m vulnerable. I know I can backslide,” Judd admitted. Naomi also claimed that the side effects of the many medications she has to ingest have taken their toll on her. Judd said that she’s lost her hair, experiences tremors in her hands, and has a swollen face as a result of the meds’ side effects. But she’s alive, and she’s trying — and that’s what really matters. Memoirs apparently run in the family — daughter Ashley Judd, sexually abused as a child as well — wrote her own in 2011, and Naomi had some hurt feelings after the book was released. About daughter Judd’s book, All That is Bitter and Sweet , Naomi said, “I will probably get around to reading it, because as a mom, I certainly want to honor her reality,” “I was horrible,” Naomi said. “I didn’t know any better.” What a mess, but it’s incredibly brave that Naomi has decided to come forward and address and attack these issues head-on.

Remember when Donald Trump was running for president , and he promised that his kids would run his business while he focused on running the country? Remember when he assured us that his children would not be receiving White House jobs, but would instead be managing his assets, which would be placed in a blind trust? If you want to go even more recent, remember when Trump appeared on 60 Minutes , and his daughter Ivanka assured Leslie Stahl that she would be remaining in New York and not moving to Washington, D.C. in order to help keep her father’s rage-tweets to a minimum? Well, you may want to sit down for this, but it looks as though the Trump family may have lied to us! We know, you’re astonished that the guy who started his campaign by claiming the Mexican government has “forced” 34 million undocumented immigrants into the US – and who just this morning abused his power by falsely accusing Boeing of overcharging the government, seemingly because the company has expressed skepticism over his trade policies – would ever lie to you. But believe it or not, it seems that’s exactly what’s going on here. Multiple media outlets are reporting today that Ivanka her husband, Jared Kushner, have been house hunting in the nation’s capital. The potential move raises concerns for a number of reasons. Trump is mostly protected from conflict of interest laws domestically, but his continued involvement in the corporate world has raised concerns about potential negative impacts of a Trump presidency on the US economy. Trump has yet to be sworn in , but there are already concerns that the President-elect’s outraged tweets could be perceived as “stock bashing” of publicly traded companies. Additionally, if Trump receives any income from foreign governments as a result of his overseas holdings, he may be in violation of the Constitutions emoluments clause, which would make him a prime candidate for impeachment. View Slideshow: 19 Things Donald Trump Has Actually Said While Running for President Though she was once viewed as a stabilizing force that balanced out her father’s erratic behavior during his campaign, Ivanka is now seen by many as a symbol of the business ties that threaten to further undermine the integrity of the presidency. No one in the Trump camp has spoken out about Ivanka’s potential move, which can probably be taken as their way of tacitly confirming that she really is Beltway-bound.

I try my hardest not to argue and curse him out, because I never want him to be able to use me as an excuse later to tell Riley he wasn’t there because I did something to stop their relationship.
