Daily Mail​2 days ago
Denise Richards has allegedly had a months-long fling with a former Special Forces soldier, who showered her with X-rated photos and videos - including a graphic clip that shows him naked and pleasuring himself.
The actress's outraged estranged husband Aaron Phypers claimed he caught wind of his her alleged affair in April, and said she had promised to break it off but he catch her lying about another hook-up with 'lover Rudy Reyes' that took place at Hilton Garden Inn, Burbank, California, the following month.
Phypers said his discovery of the 'tryst' then led to an explosive showdown over the July 4 holiday weekend, during which she 'smashed up' his phone, but she hit back at him with allegations of being the victim of domestic abuse.

Evidence? Phypers claims he discovered 107 raunchy texts between Richards and her 'Special Forces' lover on her phone in April
Phypers filed for divorce the following Monday and was hit with an avalanche of abuse allegations from Richards in court papers, including that he'd given her a black eye.
Phypers said: 'I'm broken-hearted and f***ing tired. Really, she's f***ed me up.
'We've been together nine years and for her to do that and to lie to me consistently - I'm totally tired and drained.'
He said his relationship with Richards had been deteriorating for some time before their split, and worsened at the start of the year partly due to what he said was her insatiable appetite for prescription pills and tequila.
Regarding the topic of pills, Phypers said of Richards: 'She's got a real problem. She mixes it too with booze and she stays up all night.
'She's there on her computer and taking stuff, then she hides the bottles. It's gotten out of hand, and I'm really concerned.
'She buys them in bottles of 500 pills. I don't know where she gets them from, but she always has them.
'I don't know what the market rate for those are but it's $10, $20, $30, $50 each pill. You do the math - a lot of money is going out the window for that.'
Sordid location: Phypers shared what he said was a text conversation that revealed details of the multiple sordid hotel hook-ups his wife and her lover enjoyed
Despite the alleged drugs and boozing, Phypers said the marriage muddled along until he claimed to have discovered 107 raunchy texts between Richards and Reyes on her phone, along with details of the multiple sordid hotel hook-ups they enjoyed.
He said the discovery made clear to him that Richards was allegedly having an affair, which led him to file for divorce.
The proceedings and tension between the couple were widely reported thereafter.
He said: 'I just had this feeling that something was off because her behavior had changed - she was being kind of cool to me.
'I opened her phone - we both know each other's passwords - so I opened it up and then I went to her deleted texts and there were 107 of them between her and this guy.
'I went through them and it just broke my heart.'
Of her alleged lover, Phypers added: 'As for him, he's really is a w**ker.'
Richards met Reyes during her stint on Fox reality show Special Forces: World's Toughest Test.
Reyes, a former Recon Marine, appeared as one of the show's presenters and 'directing staff' instructors.
A review of what Phypers claims was their text messages revealed multiple discussions about setting up hotel sex sessions as well as scores of raunchy photos shared between each other.
Along with graphic naked photos and videos of Richards' alleged soldier lover, there were also X-rated photos of the actress, including one of her exposing her breast.
When he first discovered the fling, his wife apologized profusely and promised to break it off, according to Phypers.
She also offered to let him look at her phone whenever he wants to 'rebuild trust' but, he said, she soon returned to making plans to meet up with her lover.
Phypers said: 'When I first found out, it really stung but she offered to rebuild trust by letting me see her phone.
'Well, it turns out she's got another number, too, which I just found out about.
'It kills me. She's been setting up times to meet him out of town while creating fights with me.'
The couple's showdown came after he said he discovered that the affair was still going on and he took photos of the raunchy conversations -at which point, Richards snatched his phone.
Phypers said he later discovered the device 'smashed to powder' in the garbage can.
He said: 'I run up to her and I go, "What the f***k did you do this for?" And she goes, "I did not do anything to your phone." Just denied it.
'And then I'm like, so it was Casper the Ghost? And she still denied it, so I ran out. I was in disbelief, and I took off.
'I just feel like I've been taken for a fool. It's been a nightmare. Just a huge nightmare.'

Ghislaine Maxwell makes last-ditch plea to Supreme Court

Jeffrey Epstein associate and British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell appealed to the Supreme Court on Monday to throw out her 2021 federal [sexual] trafficking conviction. Maxwell's lawyers argue she is covered by the 2007 plea deal Epstein reached with South Florida prosecutors to not charge any of his accomplices. The filing comes after President Donald Trump 's Justice Department earlier this month wrote it opposed the Supreme Court taking up the appeal . 'Rather than grapple with the core principles of plea agreements, the government tries to distract by reciting a lurid and irrelevant account of Jeffrey Epstein's misconduct,' Maxwell's legal team wrote in their petition. 'But this case is about what the government promised, not what Epstein did,' wrote the husband-and-wife duo, David and Mona Markus. Maxwell met on Thursday and Friday with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche to answer questions about the highly controversial case that has sparked a civil war in MAGA world. David Oscar Markus said outside the courthouse in Tallahassee, Florida last week that his client answered every question the Blanche asked of her. He also appeared to be angling for a pardon from the president. In 2007, Epstein struck a deal that allowed him to plead guilty in Florida to solicitation of prostitution and procurement of minors to engage in prostitution and only serve 13 months in jail. The agreement stipulated that Miami's U.S. Attorney's Office would 'not institute any criminal charges against any potential co-conspirators of Epstein.' The deal names four individuals, none of whom were Maxwell. But the Marukses argue that the deal also included their client when it said 'any potential co-conspirators' are also immunized in the case. Attorney General Pam Bondi seemed to quash the appeal earlier this month when it wrote opposing the Supreme Court taking up the case. But the legal team is still pushing forward with a formal request for the highest U.S. Court to take up the case. The 21-page document by Bondi's DOJ rejects Maxwell's argument that Epstein's non-prosecution agreement (NPA) when he was first investigated gave her immunity. The letter says the idea that this deal covered the entire U.S. government – including the Southern District of New York, which brought her to trial in 2021 - was 'incorrect.' In addition to the Supreme Court appeal, the lawyers are also angling for a presidential pardon for their client. Maxwell engaged in more than nine hours of interviews with Blanche last week. David Markus claimed that his client spoke with the deputy AG about '100 different people' related to Epstein's child [sexual] trafficking ring. 'They asked about every possible thing you could imagine – everything,' he said. The attorney also said Maxwell is being used as the 'scapegoat' in the entire Epstein case and has been 'treated unfairly for the last five years.' Markus said that they had not put in a formal request with the White House for a pardon for Maxwell, but he didn't rule out taking that action in the future, saying 'things are happening so quickly.' 'The president said earlier he has the power to do so, we hope he exercises that power in the right way,' he said of a potential commutation. Trump refused to rule out invoking his presidential pardon powers for Maxwell when asked on Friday morning.' I'm allowed to do it, but it's something I haven't thought about,' he said.

Unhinged woman who can't stop smiling in mugshots pleads guilty to appalling crime

An unhinged female prison inmate known for maniacally smiling in her mugshots admitted to murdering her cellmate after slipping into psychotic delusions. Taylor Sanchez, 29, was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole this week over the brutal stabbing of her cellmate Cindy Schulz-Juedes, 68, in July 2023. Prison officers found Schulz-Juedes in a pool of her own blood in cell 410 in Taycheedah Correctional Institution in Fond Du Lac County, Wisconsin. When confronted over the murder, Sanchez told officers that she 'was hearing voices telling me to kill her,' and later admitted that she stopped taking her medications. She also said that she launched at her cellmate because she thought she was using her toothbrush to scrub the toilet, per Fox6. In a call that Sanchez made to her mother after the jailhouse death, she was heard saying: 'I stopped taking my meds and I started hearing voices again.' After repeating the toothbrush theory, she added: 'I thought she was using my stuff to wipe the floor with and I thought she was messing with me', to which Sanchez's mother replied: 'Oh god.' Sanchez was seen grinning in her mugshot after the murder, the same as she did when she was sentenced to 18 months in prison in August 2022 for battery or threat to a law enforcement officer, and battery of another inmate before her fatal attack on Schulz-Juedes Sanchez was already serving a prison sentence for her battery charges when the attack on Schulz-Juedes occurred, and was set to be freed in August 2024. She has since been handed a life prison term for the vicious attack, which saw Schulz-Juedes beaten so severely that her 'skull fractures were too numerous to count.' She also suffered 34 rib fractures, bruises on arms, chest and abdomen, and other injuries, officials said. Schulz-Juedes was serving a life sentence for murdering her husband Ken Jeudes, 58, in 2006. She was not charged over the murder until 2019, and was three years into her sentence before being murdered by Sanchez. At Sanchez's sentencing this week, Judge Tricia Walker condemned the 'wholly vicious' attack as she denied ever allowing her to be eligible for parole. Fond du Lac County District Attorney Toney stated at the sentencing: 'Every victim matters, regardless of their status or if they are serving a criminal sentence. 'This defendant brutally murdered her cellmate and created dangerous risks for other inmates and correctional officers. 'We will continue to protect our correctional officers and all those within our community, regardless of where they reside. 'We hope this sentence sends a strong message to inmates that there are consequences for committing crimes in our prisons.'

Texas county votes to release Uvalde school shooting records, ending legal battle

Leaders of the county where 19 students and two teachers were killed in the 2022 shooting at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas, voted Monday to release records related to the massacre, ending a yearslong legal battle over disclosure of the information. Uvalde County commissioners voted 2-1 to release the records and to stop appealing a 2022 lawsuit that a group of media organizations, including The Associated Press, had filed seeking to make the information public. The decision by commissioners came a week after the Uvalde district's school board voted to release its records related to the deadly rampage, one of the worst school shootings in U.S. history. The group of media organizations had sued both the county and the school district for the release of the records. County commissioners and the school district voted to release the records after a Texas appeals court on July 16 upheld a judge's ruling that had ordered the information be made public. Both the county and the school district have not said when the records will be released. 'For me, the appellate court's decision to uphold (the judge's) ruling to hand over the video coverage was just confirmation for me that … what are we hiding?' Uvalde County Commissioner Ronald Garza told AP after Monday's meeting. 'I'm very happy that we're gonna release the information.' One county commissioner, Mariano Pargas Jr., who was the acting police chief on the day of the school shooting, abstained from the vote. Family members of the victims had also pushed to make the records public. Jesse Rizo, the uncle of 9-year-old victim Jackie Cazares, asked commissioners on Monday to release the records. Rizo is also a member of the school board. During the board's July 21 meeting, he apologized for the delay in releasing the records. 'Will it answer everything? No. Will it give you closure? I don't think anything ever will give you that type of closure. Will it hopefully make you heal or allow you to heal? I pray that it does,' Rizo said last week. Records from the county that are expected to be released include incident and 911 reports concerning Robb Elementary and other locations; video footage; ballistics and evidence logs; and reports of law enforcement interactions with the shooter and his mother. Records from the school district expected to be released include body-worn and security camera footage from Robb Elementary; student files for the shooter; and records involving Pete Arredondo, the former Uvalde schools police chief who was later indicted over his role in the slow response to the shooting. Arredondo and former school officer Adrian Gonzales have pleaded not guilty to multiple charges of child abandonment and endangerment. They are set to face trial on Oct. 20. Several officers involved, including Arredondo, were fired, and separate investigations by the Department of Justice and state lawmakers faulted law enforcement for botching their response to the massacre. Uvalde city officials released their records in August 2024. The Texas Department of Public Safety is still fighting a separate lawsuit filed by media organizations for the release of that agency's records related to the school shooting. ___
