3-Year-Old Girl and a Dog Were Found Dead in a Car. The Child's Mother Claims She Fell into a River at the Time of the Tragedy

Kelly Brown, 40, said she was 'swept away" as she fell into the Penobscot River in Maine NEED TO KNOW A woman has been charged with manslaughter after her 3-year-old daughter and a dog were found dead in her locked vehicle Kelly Brown, 40, allegedly claimed to have fallen into a river in Maine on her way to take out trash when the tragedy occurred The woman's bail has been set at $50,000 A woman has been charged with manslaughter after her 3-year-old daughter and a dog were found dead in her locked vehicle — during a time when she allegedly claimed to have fallen into a river on her way to take out trash. The Penobscot County Sheriff's Office (PSCO) initially discovered the vehicle of 40-year-old Pennsylvania resident Kelly Brown outside a local business in Milford, Maine, on the evening of Aug. 9, according to Maine State Police (MSP). Inside the car, police officers discovered the young girl dead, and they later located the mother "nearby." After calling in help, MSP arrested Brown, and she was booked at the Penobscot County Jail around 5 a.m. local time the following morning. During an appearance at Penobscot Judicial Center on Aug. 11, Brown was formally charged with manslaughter. According to an affidavit and court documents obtained by CBS affiliate WABI, NBC affiliate WCHS and Brown told police that she left her daughter in the car while she was picking up trash in the area, but she fell into the Penobscot River and was 'swept away." A spokesperson for the MSP did not immediately respond to PEOPLE's request for confirmation on Sunday, Aug. 17. Attorney information for Brown was not immediately available. According to court records obtained by WABI, police assert that Brown left her child and a small dog inside the parked car in a Milford Freshies parking lot around 2 a.m. local time on Aug. 9. She briefly returned to the vehicle around 6 a.m., but apparently did not come back again until police and EMS arrived 14 hours later, the outlet said. Brown, her daughter Fiona and their 13-year-old family dog Penelope left Pennsylvania on July 30 for an annual trip to see family in Maine. According to Brown's mother claimed she had been "hallucinating" and posting 'disturbing' videos on Facebook since late July. The mother, the daughter and their pet had been camping alongside rest stops on their way back to their family camp. Brown told authorities that she wanted to teach Fiona about keeping nature "clean." Brown said her daughter and the dog were alive when she last left them in the vehicle. She claimed that she then slipped and fell into the river and was 'fighting to stay above water," according to the affidavit obtained by Police found the child's body "resting, face down, on the driver's side seat very close to the driver's side door," while the dog's head was resting on her foot, the outlet reported. Brown's family later reported her to police, stating that she had been acting odd and claiming she had been seeing spirits, per WABI. The affidavit obtained by alleges that Brown 'began to scream' when she learned of the deaths of her daughter and dog. While Brown, who was covered in scratches and bruises, told police that she fell into the river, surveillance footage allegedly contradicted her claims, according to WABI and WCHS, and her clothes were not wet by the time she returned to the vehicle. 'Kelly Brown's alternative explanation for abandoning her daughter and dog in the locked closed car on a hot August day contradicts the surveillance video and observations of the law enforcement officers when she appeared on the scene and was later interviewed,' the affidavit said, per According to WABI and WCHS, a judge placed Brown's bail at $50,000. Police said they found no other signs of the possible causes of death for the child beyond heat exposure. The Office of Chief Medical Examiner in Augusta then determined the girl's probable cause of death was the result of being left in the car for hours on end, WCHS reported. Attorneys and the judge agreed to meet again on Sept. 26, according to WCHS. Brown's case will then go in front of a grand jury. Read the original article on People

Jim Harbaugh refuses to comment on NCAA penalizing University of Michigan for sign-stealing

Jim Harbaugh is refusing to comment on the NCAA's decision to fine the University of Michigan tens of millions of dollars and to suspend head coach Sherrone Moore for three games due to the sign-stealing scandal that occurred during Harbaugh's tenure at his alma mater. Harbaugh stayed mum on the Wolverines when he stepped to the podium at SoFi Stadium on Saturday night following his Los Angeles Chargers' 23-22 preseason loss to the Los Angeles Rams for his first interaction with the media since the NCAA's rulings were announced Friday. "Like I said to you last year, not engaging," Harbaugh said. "Not engaging." The NCAA sharply criticized Harbaugh's stewardship over the winningest program in college football when it announced the sanctions, saying it had "overwhelming" evidence of a cover-up by the Michigan staff. Harbaugh has always claimed he didn't know about the sign-stealing and scouting operation run by Connor Stalions. Stalions was given an eight-year show-cause order, restricting him from all athletically related activities during the show-cause period. He was on Harbaugh's staff until he resigned amid the scandal in November 2023. In the Netflix documentary "Untold: Sign Stealer," Stalions said he did not break any NCAA rules. Michigan only avoided a multi-year postseason ban because the NCAA decided it wasn't fair to the Wolverines' current student-athletes to penalize them for the misdeeds during Harbaugh's tenure, which culminated in a national championship in January 2024. He jumped back to the NFL two weeks later with the Chargers, and the NCAA hit him in August 2024 with a four-year show-cause order for recruiting violations. Harbaugh now faces a 10-year show-cause order following the conclusion of the four-year order, which effectively serves as a 14-year ban from college football. Moore said in a statement on Friday after the NCAA's announcement that he's "glad that this part of the process has been completed. I greatly respect the rules governing collegiate athletics and it is my intent to have our program comply with those rules at all times." Michigan has said it will appeal the NCAA's decision, claiming the body has made errors in interpreting its own bylaws while drawing conclusions that are contrary to evidence. Moore was Harbaugh's assistant for six years before getting the top job upon Harbaugh's departure. Moore will be suspended for two games this September and for the Wolverines' 2026 season opener in Germany. Note: The above video first aired on Aug. 15, 2025.

Six sentenced for attempted phone shop robbery

Six men have been sentenced after attempting to rob a phone shop. The men were stopped by police as they burst into the O2 shop in Borough Parade, Chippenham, ran through the store and set off the fire alarm on 16 March. All six pleaded guilty to conspiracy to steal at a court hearing in June, and were sentenced at Swindon Crown Court on Thursday. Two men were sent to prison - Jason Hunte, 27, of Avondale Drive, Hayes, Hillingdon, for two years and two months, and Nusret Arslan, 24, of East Avenue, Hayes, Hillingdon, for two years. The four other men received suspended prison sentences. The court heard from a sales assistant involved in the incident, who said they had found themselves "overwhelmed with shock, fear, and anxiety". They added they had noticed a significant change in how they interacted with customers, and felt "a sense of unease and tension whenever someone enters the store". Jesse Madika, 24, of Amersham Avenue, Edmonton, Enfield, was sentenced to 14 months in prison, suspended for two years, as well as 150 hours of unpaid work, while Jaheim Thompson, 23, of no fixed abode, was sentenced to eight months suspended for 18 months. Billy Gladdish, 28, of no fixed abode, was handed 14 months in prison, suspended for two years as well as 200 hours of unpaid work, and Tyrike Rasgado, 23, of Deans Lane, Mill Hill, Edgware, was sentenced to eight months suspended for 18 months and 150 hours of unpaid work. The court also heard from a customer who was in the store at the time and described the contrast between "quite happily sitting in the shop completing a new phone contract, to suddenly men bursting in and running through the shop, a fire alarm going off, and shop staff shouting to get out". "I was filled with sudden panic and an overwhelming need to run and get out and get as far away as possible," they added. Speaking after the sentencing, Wiltshire Police Det Con Jared Yalden said detectives had been collaborating with the Metropolitan Police to prevent similar offending. He said the men gave "no thought" to the impact their actions would have on victims due to their "determination" and "own personal greed". Follow BBC Wiltshire on Facebook, X and Instagram.
