Warrant reveals close calls, victim's attempt to paddle away before deadly Grapevine Lake jet ski crash
The arrest warrant for the suspect in the deadly Grapevine Lake jet ski crash on Sunday reveals close calls before the crash and that the victim was trying to paddle to the shoreline to safety when she was hit.
On Sunday, 18-year-old Ava Moore was kayaking at Grapevine Lake when she was struck and killed by a jet ski with two women on it, police said. The suspected driver of the jet ski, Daikerlyn Alejandra Gonzalez Gonzalez was taken into custody Tuesday after fleeing the scene with a man.
Attorney General Ken Paxton said that Gonzalez and the man, Maikel Coello, are both undocumented immigrants.

Witnesses told Grapevine police that the driver of the jet ski made several passes along the shoreline "with wanton disregard to the safety of others and at a speed and manner that endangered others in the area" before hitting one of two kayaks paddling near the shoreline.
The other kayaker told police that after the jet ski made several passes near the shoreline and near swimmers at a high rate of speed, she and Moore decided to paddle away from the area.

As they paddled away, the warrant states, the jet ski driven by Gonzalez hit Moore's kayak from behind.
The other kayaker told police she heard waves approaching and turned her head in time to see the jet ski drive over Moore's kayak.
She also told police she watched Gonzalez turn the jet ski back toward the direction they had just come from and saw Gonzalez and the jet ski passenger, Clerismar Colina-Lugo, "witness that they had recklessly caused injury or death" to Moore. Gonzalez and the passenger then left the area.

Gonzalez and Colina-Lugo eventually returned to the area on the jet ski, the warrant states, whereupon onlookers and bystanders tried to box in and block the two women from leaving. According to the warrant, witness videos confirm the onlookers' efforts as well as other individuals guarding and helping Gonzalez and Colina-Lugo move towards vehicles in the parking lot.

Gonzalez is then seen getting into a blue Toyota Corolla with a man later identified as Coello, as the two left the area before crashing into another vehicle and driving away.
Gonzalez faces charges of reckless operation and excessive speed, manslaughter and leaving the scene of an accident.
Coello's charges are currently unknown.

I Forgot John Mulaney Was in This Movie in This Week's Netflix Top 10
Every week, Netflix unveils its Top 10 lists for the week before, ranking TV shows and movies by viewership. As someone who covers streaming content (and also just watches a lot of TV), I keep an eye on the titles that come and go, and am always curious what hits and what doesn't. Last week, John Mulaney's Netflix animated series Big Mouth premiered a new season, and his Netflix talk show Everybody's Live with John Mulaney aired its season finale, so I was curious if either would crack the Netflix Top 10. Neither did, but ironically, a third Mulaney-involved title — Puss In Boots: The Last Wish — was in the No. 5 spot on the Netflix movie chart to my surprise, mostly because I forgot that he was even in it. (Sure, Puss In Boots: The Last Wish also stars Antonio Banderas, Salma Hayek, Harvey Guillen and Florence Pugh, but for the sake of argument, today it's a John Mulaney film.) Mulaney has been incredibly busy for the past few years, and it feels like the past two months reached peak Mulaney saturation: the eighth and final season of Big Mouth premiered on May 23, while his talk show Everybody's Live with John Mulaney aired its season finale on May 28 after running for 12 truly weird and unpredictable weeks. (For weeks, the show teased that the finale would feature Mulaney brawling with three 14-year-old boys. And yes, that fight did happen, rest assured no children were harmed.) Between both of his Netflix shows and recent appearances on Peacock's Poker Face and SNL 50, I think that his ubiquity is why I had forgotten all about his role as Jack Horner, the main villain in Puss In Boots: The Last Wish. It's certainly not because the role wasn't memorable, he actually stole every scene he was in as the narcissistic nursery rhyme character with an inferiority complex. Puss In Boots: The Last Wish, which debuted in theaters in 2022, is not actually available on Netflix in the U.S., which makes it even more impressive that it's dominating the Global Top 10 based on its popularity in Central and South America, where it peaked at No. 1 and has remained in the Top 10 film in dozens of countries for five weeks. DreamWorks Once I remembered Mulaney's pivotal role in the movie, I started to wonder, is this guy secretly Netflix's biggest star? He seems to have been given creative carte blanche on his talk shows and stand-up specials and, while his comedy can be niche, he also stars in projects with global appeal, so he very well could be. The streamer has deals with bigger names like Adam Sandler, Tyler Perry and Millie Bobby Brown, but I think Mulaney may be their ringer. He also starred in Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse, which was only just removed from Netflix in April, he has seven comedy specials on the platform, and he pops up in everything from Comedians In Cars Getting Coffee to this month's Conan O'Brien's Mark Twain Prize for American Humor special. He's in so many things that somehow they managed to overshadow The Last Wish in my mind. But the film, which has made almost $500 million globally, is hardly under the radar. Maybe while it remains in the Top 10, it will give him a chance to take a well-deserved break from Netflix and just chill. At least for a little while, before he starts plotting who to grapple on season 2 of Everybody's Live.

Novel Survey Effectively Screens Binge Eating in Diabetes
A new diabetes-specific 10-item screening tool demonstrated excellent performance in detecting binge eating disorder in both patients with type 1 diabetes (T1D) and those with type 2 diabetes (T2D), showing strong associations with glycaemic control and mental health outcomes. METHODOLOGY: Although diabetes-specific screening for disordered eating behaviours is advised, the only available tool — the Diabetes Eating Problem Survey–Revised (DEPS-R) — is tailored for patients with T1D on rapid-acting insulin therapy, limiting its applicability across other diabetes types and treatment regimens. Researchers developed a 10-item non–insulin-specific version of the DEPS-R (DEPS-10) and evaluated its screening performance for binge eating disorder in 679 patients with T1D or T2D (mean age, 53.8 years) who had the disease for at least 1 year. The new survey assessed loss of control over eating, dietary and purging behaviours, and challenges in diabetes management. Researchers conducted a receiver operating characteristic curve analysis to test the screening performance of the DEPS-10 and compared it with those of the original DEPS-R and the Problem Areas In Diabetes (PAID) scale. TAKEAWAY: The point prevalence of binge eating disorder was 3.5% in the whole cohort, 2.9% in patients with T1D, and 4.3% in those with T2D. The DEPS-10 showed excellent screening performance for binge eating disorder (area under the curve [AUC], 0.92; P < .001), matching that of the DEPS-R (AUC, 0.92; P < .001) and surpassing that of the PAID scale (AUC, 0.82; P < .001). < .001), matching that of the DEPS-R (AUC, 0.92; < .001) and surpassing that of the PAID scale (AUC, 0.82; < .001). The DEPS-10 showed optimal sensitivity (87.5%) and specificity (86.9%) for detecting binge eating disorder at a cutoff score of greater than or equal to 15; participants with this cutoff score had higher body mass index and A1c level along with a greater psychological burden than those with scores below it. The stepwise approach of first screening with the PAID scale and then applying the DEPS-10 boosted specificity to 94%, compared with 87% when using the DEPS-10 alone and 67% when using the PAID scale alone. IN PRACTICE: "A two-step approach using the PAID followed by the DEPS-10 can be a feasible and time-efficient procedure in routine care," the authors wrote. SOURCE: This study was led by Laura Yvonne Klinker, Diabetes Center Mergentheim in Bad Mergentheim, Germany. It was published online on May 29, 2025, in Diabetic Medicine . LIMITATIONS: Higher DEPS-10 scores in one fifth of the participants may have been affected by glucagon-like peptide 1 therapy. Additionally, the relatively low positive predictive value of the DEPS-10 could have been attributed to its broader scope in detecting various disordered eating behaviours beyond binge eating disorder. DISCLOSURES: This study was funded by a grant from the German Center for Diabetes Research. The authors reported having no conflicts of interest. This article was created using several editorial tools, including AI, as part of the process. Human editors reviewed this content before publication.

At Combs Trial, ‘Jane,' an Ex-Girlfriend, to Testify About Sex Abuse
A second woman who prosecutors say was sex trafficked by Sean Combs is set to take the stand on Thursday at his federal trial in what is expected to be several days of testimony about drug-fueled sex marathons with male prostitutes known as 'freak-offs.' A judge has allowed the woman to testify anonymously, and she is being referred to in court by the pseudonym 'Jane.' She is the most significant witness since Casandra Ventura, Mr. Combs's on-and-off girlfriend of 11 years, whose allegations of physical and sexual abuse gave rise to the criminal case. Prosecutors have said that Jane's relationship with Mr. Combs mirrored the one he had with Ms. Ventura in many ways. Like Ms. Ventura, they have said, Jane was coerced into freak-offs through violence, financial control and threats related to videos of the sexual encounters, which they said Mr. Combs directed step by step. Unlike Ms. Ventura, who is a singer known as Cassie and a public celebrity, Jane's identity has not been revealed. The government has described Jane as a single mother who started spending time with Mr. Combs in 2020 and quickly fell in love with the music mogul, agreeing to participate in an initial freak-off to please him. 'Jane thought the first freak-off was a one-time, wild night,' Emily Johnson, one of the prosecutors, said at the start of the case. 'Jane was wrong.' Want all of The Times? Subscribe.
