‘Trying to kill us': Ruby Rose makes troubling claims
Australian actor Ruby Rose has sparked concern among fans after claiming people are 'trying to kill' her and making a chilling comparison to Jeffrey Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre.
The 39-year-old made the troubling claims on Monday while responding to an innocuous question on Threads.
An American radio host posted a question on his own account, asking: 'Who is a celebrity that gave it all up at the height of fame to go live a 'normal' life?'
Ruby re-posted the question, writing, 'We just leave when people try to kill us. When we are illegally debanked and (redacted). Hope that helps'.
She continued: 'I don't want to be labelled 'crazy' and I don't want to pretend to know how Virginia Giuffre died — but DOZENS of people including a school bus, have tried to run me off the road in the last few years. The posts Ruby Rose made on Threads. Credit: Threads
'I have been followed almost every time I leave my home, since the day I broke my neck back and ribs on Batwoman. Since then I have doubled down on (redacted) and Epstein.
'This has resulted in some seriously wild attempts on my life. Believe it or don't. But I might as well update you.'
Virginia Giuffre was a high-profile victim of billionaire paedophile Jeffrey Epstein who died on her farm in Neergabby, about 80km north of Perth, in April in circumstances that were not deemed suspicious.
Just weeks before Giuffre's death, she claimed she had just days to live after being involved in a crash with a school bus. However, police later confirmed the collision was minor and no major injuries were reported after the crash. Australian actress and television presenter Ruby Rose in 2023.

Ruby further claimed she was being forced to 'move house every few weeks, and countries every few months' in a desperate attempt to 'stay alive'.
Fans took to the comments section to express their concern over Ruby's safety.
One person said: 'If you're truly being followed and targeted, staying put is dangerous. You need to move ideally to another country , where you can be safe and off the radar. Trust no one unless you're absolutely sure of them. Change your routine completely. This isn't about fear, it's about survival. Your safety comes first act now !!!'
'I really hope that from now on that you have are able to stay safe and live a happy life,' another said.

‘Worst scandal' in American presidency history brews for Joe Biden amid investigation
Donald Trump's Justice Department is examining pardons that Joe Biden issued to family members and death row inmates in the final hours of his presidency. An investigation by the House oversight committee is looking into Mr Biden's cognitive health and the use of 'autopen'. Former Alabama Attorney Jay Town claims this could be the 'worst scandal in the White House in American presidency history'. 'I think the case will actually start to get very solid as we start to engage in what we call discovery, which is where we're getting evidence through a grand jury or subpoenas,' he told Sky News Australia. 'But I think that once one domino falls, you're going to see 20 of them fall.'

Tobacco tax to stay high despite black market fears
A tobacco tax that's helped drive Australian cigarette prices to world-leading highs won't be lowered despite suggestions it has aided a rampant black market. Treasurer Jim Chalmers ruled out changing the tobacco excise on Wednesday, dismissing NSW Premier Chris Minns' call that lower prices could help curb surging levels of illegal tobacco in the community. Tobacco prices have been driven by a federal excise topping $1.40 a cigarette in March, excluding shop mark-ups, with the average pack of 20 costing about $40. Tobacco tax revenue peaked at $16.3 billion in 2019-20 but has dipped to a projected $7.4 billion this financial year, which experts say illustrates cigarette prices becoming unaffordable and smokers turning to the black market. Ruling out a change to the excise, the treasurer said the revenue decrease was for both good and bad reasons. 'More people are giving up the darts, but more people are also doing the wrong thing (and) I'm not convinced cutting the excise on cigarettes would mean that would be the end of illegal activity,' Chalmers said. 'I respectfully disagree with Chris ... I don't think the answer here is to make cigarettes cheaper for people, the answer here is to get better at compliance.' Earlier in the week, Minns said police had better things to do than tobacco enforcement and the 'commonsense option' would be for the federal government to acknowledge the excise was not working. He pointed out the excise had increased from $16 to $28 per pack in six years but total revenue was going backward as consumers fled to the black market. NSW Treasurer Daniel Mookhey insisted he would raise the issue with his federal counterpart despite the flat rejection. 'We can't ignore the fact there's an interaction between the federal exercise and the emergence of illegal tobacco,' he said. Increased scrutiny on illicit tobacco came as police on Tuesday announced the arrest of seven people over 20 million untaxed cigarettes and other drug imports.
