Kim Delaney, ‘NYPD Blue' actress, arrested after alleged domestic dispute
Lt. Jose Salgado, watch commander at the Marina Del Rey Sheriff's Station, said Delaney was arrested at her residence on Saturday on suspicion of assault with a deadly weapon.
She was still in custody as of Sunday evening is scheduled to be in court on Tuesday for arraignment, Salgado said.
Her partner was arrested on suspicion of misdemeanor spousal battery. He posted bond and was released, according to authorities.
CNN has reached out to representatives for Delaney for comment.
Delaney, who won a best supporting actress in a drama series in 1997 for her role as Det. Diane Russell on 'NYPD Blue' has had trouble with the law before.
She was arrested in 2002 on suspicion of drunk driving and later pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor charge of reckless driving, according to Entertainment Weekly. She was reportedly sentenced to two years of probation and paid a $300 fine. She sought treatment in 2003 for alcohol abuse.
In 2005, the 'CSI: Miami' star lost custody of her then 15-year-old son after he testified that his mother endangered his life by driving under the influence of alcohol drunk with him in the car, People reported at the time.
Delaney, who also starred in the 'Army Wives' series, was escorted from the stage in 2011 after she delivered an incoherent and rambling speech during an event honoring former Defense Secretary Robert Gates.
She most recently had a recurring role as Jackie Templeton on the daytime drama 'General Hospital.'

How I Track Down Society's Most Elusive Criminals
I still remember the blood. The vultures. Most of all, I remember the stench. We had been riding on a bumpy dirt road for hours, my stomach in knots before the Jeep even left Nairobi, twisting more and more as we twisted deeper into the bush. We were looking for elephants. Kills, to be more precise. As we drove past wildebeest and impala, I thought I knew how I would react — how it would feel — but how can anyone know what will happen when they come face-to-face with death? We came upon a dry patch of savannah — dry except for the red pooling and painted across the tall grass, everywhere. And everywhere, spent shell casings fired from AK-47s. Standing over a family of elephants, or what was once a family, I felt helpless, angry, powerless. It was 2010, the height of the ivory war, when poachers would open fire on anything with tusks. I had seen reports on CNN, read about it in The New York Times, and I knew the global market for ivory carvings and statues was causing destruction here. But knowing that intellectually, and seeing a baby elephant hacked to pieces in real life is something else. At the time, there were rumors that poached ivory was being sold to al Shabaab, the Somali extremists who pledged allegiance to al Qaeda. Word was that Shabaab smuggled and sold this ' white gold ' to overseas buyers, using the profits to fund attacks like the Westgate shopping mall assault that killed 71 in downtown Nairobi in 2013. And here we were, in Tsavo National Park, deep in Shabaab's territory at a crime scene. The killers were so sure they wouldn't be caught, they left their evidence strewn across the bush. And they were right — no one would hunt them. That's because most people, including most authorities, don't see environmental crime — which includes illegal logging, illegal fishing, gold and mining and many other linked crimes in addition to this kind of illegal wildlife trade — as real crime. What's worse, they don't realize organized criminal groups often fund a laundry list of other crimes, from narcotics to human trafficking, through their environmental crimes. At nearly $300 billion, environmental crime is the fourth-largest criminal enterprise on earth. The same groups that traffic people and drugs also deal in natural resources, and they do it because it's big business, while also being lower risk than many other crimes. That's why 'large and powerful organized crime groups' are 'operating in some of the most fragile and diverse ecosystems from the Amazon to the Golden Triangle' of Southeast Asia, according to the United Nation's 2024 World Wildlife Crime Report. I didn't know all that on that hot Tsavo day, but it was obvious even then that this was bigger than poaching. The men with me were rangers from the Kenya Wildlife Service, trained and tough, but without the resources to investigate transnational crime and terror, we were losing a war that couldn't be fought by scientists or rangers alone. When I realized this, I told myself I would no longer be a bystander. I would hunt the hunters. The question was, where to begin? Without knowing where that commitment would take me, I started doing just that. After that dark day, I used my background as a security consultant to help uncover the financial link between al Shabaab's involvement in the ivory trade and terrorism (a link many refused to believe until officials admitted it was real). No one — no law enforcement group or conservation group — was hunting the individuals at the top of these networks. When I realized that, I founded my nonprofit, with the goal of using surveillance and undercover monitoring to investigate and dismantle environmental crime networks. We operate like an intelligence agency for the planet, using informants, assets and surveillance to build cases and share evidence with authorities who then take it the last mile and make arrests. In this way, we have investigated crimes around the world, from rhino trafficking to illegal gold mining, leading to dozens of arrests. In 2023, evidence gathered by my team helped the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Department of Homeland Security arrest key players in an international trafficking network. Fifteen years later, we still follow the same model. Posing as buyers, we take our time to collect inside information — evidence of sales and syndicates — collaborating with federal agencies to tie environmental crimes to transnational crime groups. It takes a unique set of skills to track multiple criminal enterprises and earn the trust of people most wouldn't dare speak to, let alone meet. Some of our targets are connected to the embassies and consulates of unfriendly nations, some are militants, some are gangsters. The constant is our undercover work to see and study the threat. Spying is like building a giant puzzle without knowing what the puzzle looks like. It takes years to build — which means resisting the temptation to make an easy early arrest. You must wait and weave a web to take out whole networks. You don't close the net until you know everything about the supply chain. Patience means cutting off 20 heads, not just front-line soldiers. That's the difference between long-term intelligence and short-term investigation. 'The same people illegally trafficking gold in Latin America or diamond mining in West Africa [are] financing fentanyl sales with wildlife parts in Mexico,' explains David Luna, who spent 20 years at the State Department fighting what's called environmental crime convergence. 'Environmental crime still isn't taken seriously enough,' warns Charles Barber, the natural resources governance director at the World Resource Institute, which in April published a report on the convergence of environmental crime with corruption, money laundering and human rights abuse. Lionel Hachemin, the director of wildlife crime at the International Fund for Animal Welfare, says communicating this threat means re-education. It starts with the donors who are largely funding this fight, and who want to see results for their money. That often means arresting poachers, who are the most visible target for law enforcement. Like in all other crime organizations, those at the top are harder to see — they exist in shadow, hiding behind legitimate businesses, financial institutions and officials. But poachers are often simply trying to feed their families; they can't afford to say no to the meager earnings the work provides, and arresting them does little to impact the overall network or create lasting change. What I've learned fighting deforestation in the Amazon, wildlife traffickers in China and illegal fishing in Mexico is that we must target the heads of these networks. My team learned this lesson fighting drug traffickers. Every time you seize a ton of cocaine, for instance, traffickers will send another ton. It's just the cost of business. Resource crime is different because resources are finite and the species often endangered. If you make an arrest too quickly and don't destroy the networks, the impact on nature is huge. A bust looks good on TV, but it means that criminals will have to kill even more animals to fill their quotas. A few years ago, we were undercover in Vietnam posing as buyers, and a major trafficker showed us dozens of rhino horns. 'What happens if we pay and customs seizes the horns?' we asked. I'll never forget how he smiled. 'Don't worry,' he said. 'We'll just send it again, free of charge.' The public needs to know that fentanyl was traded by Chinese gangs for environmental resources supplied by Mexican cartels, Luna tells me. Maybe they soon will. With eight cartels now designated as terror groups, that could bring attention and funding, says Vanda Felbab-Brown, a senior Brookings Institute fellow studying crime and terror. This is the shadow side of conservation that scientists aren't trained for — and most nongovernmental organizations prefer to ignore. But until authorities see that eco-crimes are part of a network of crimes that are perpetrated by sophisticated organized crime groups, the exploitation and violence will continue.

CNN anchor Jake Tapper caught on hot mic during Trump, Putin coverage: 'Give me my show'
CNN anchor Jake Tapper was caught on a hot mic during the network's special Aug. 15 coverage of President Donald Trump's summit with Russian leader Vladimir Putin. Tapper, who usually hosts his two-hour program "The Lead" from 5 p.m. to 7 p.m. EST from Washington, D.C., was live Friday in Alaska, when his colleague Anderson Cooper attempted to throw it back to him. "I'm fine, just give me my show back," Tapper said, seemingly expressing his frustration while failing to realize he was live. The hot mic moment was shared on X by conservative NewsBusters managing editor Curtis Houck. A smiling Cooper then quipped, "Show's back!" Ooops CNN hot mic catches an angry Jake Tapper!! 'Allison Cooper': Trump calls CNN anchor Anderson Cooper 'Allison' in rant After the awkward exchange, Tapper welcomed Sen. Adam Schiff to the show, but the California Democrat couldn't hear the CNN host. "I think I lost you," Schiff said. Tapper then told the audience that "we're having real comms problems today. I'm sorry about that. If anybody can hear me, let's go throw it back to New York." At that point, Cooper again took over, saying "Okay, Jake, thanks very much." USA TODAY reached out to reps for Cooper, Tapper and CNN for comment. At the Alaska summit, Trump and Putin failed to achieve a major breakthrough in peace negotiations over Russia's war against Ukraine. Tapper occasionally becomes frustrated during on-air coverage. In 2020, Tapper played Lara Trump's remarks at a "Women for Trump" 2020 campaign event about former President Joe Biden during her interview on "State of the Union." "Every time he comes on stage and they turn to him, I'm like: 'Joe, can you get it out. Let's get the words out,'" Trump said. Tapper then asked, "How do you think it makes little kids with stutters feel when they see you make a comment like that?" Trump then responded that she did not know Biden had a stutter, which was a well-documented disability of the then-presidential candidate. "I think what we see on stage with Joe Biden, Jake, is very clearly a cognitive decline. That's what I'm referring to," Trump said. Tapper then shut down the interview, telling Trump that she had "absolutely no standing to diagnose somebody's cognitive decline." In May, Tapper revealed that he had apologized to Trump about the incident. That same month, Tapper and co-author Alex Thompson of Axios released a controversial book "Original Sin" that explored the physical and cognitive decline of Biden during his presidency. The book received significant backlash from certain liberal and center corners of the political spectrum. Contributing: James Powel
