Bryan Kohberger Ignores Mother and Sister as He Exits Courtroom Following Sentencing
Bryan Kohberger had no words for his mother after he was sentenced to serve four lifetimes in prison on Wednesday, July 23. The New York Times reports that after learning his fate, the quadruple murderer ignored both his mother Maryann and sister Amanda as he exited the courtroom. They were the only two members of Kohberger's family who were in attendance at his sentencing hearing. Both women were later seen being escorted from the courthouse by Kohberger's public defender Anne Taylor. It was an emotional day in court for Maryann, who, according to the Times, was seen "shuddering at times and in one instance putting her head in her hands." At one point in the proceedings, a family member of one victim made mention of Maryann during her remarks."My heart aches for the kids' roommates, and the families of the other victims and also the family of the perpetrator," said Kim Cheeley, the grandmother of victim Madison Mogen. Shortly after Cheeley spoke there was a brief recess, and upon returning to the courtroom, the Times reports that Kohberger did smile and nod at his mother, but that appeared to be the lone interaction between the two. The hearing ended with Kohberger being sentenced to serve four lifetimes in prison without the possibility of parole on the four murder charges, plus 10 years on a burglary charge. He was also ordered to pay $270,000 in fines and civil penalties. This comes three weeks after he appeared in the same Boise courtroom and confessed to the murders of: Mogen, 21; Kaylee Goncalves, 21; Xana Kernodle, 20; and Ethan Chapin, 20. Kohberger's sister Amanda looked eager to make a quick exit from the courthouse after the hearing, leading the way with her mother Maryann following close behind. Amanda also appeared eager to shield her mother — who wore dark, oversized sunglasses — from the cameras. It is unclear if the two women will have a chance to see Kohberger before he is released from the Ada County Jail and placed into the custody of the Idaho Department of Corrections. Kohberger will now undergo a two-week evaluation after which the IDOC will determine what prison he is sent to for the rest of his life. That will likely be the lone maximum security prison in Idaho but could also be an out-of-state facility due to safety concerns surrounding the high-profile inmate.

Catherine Rampell Becomes Latest Washington Post Writer to Exit Paper
The new MSNBC host says she accepted a buyout, adding to the growing list of staffers who have left following owner Jeff Bezos' revamp of the opinion section Another day, another Washington Post writer exiting the paper. This time it is columnist Catherine Rampell, who said on Wednesday she had accepted a buyout offer from the paper she has worked at for the last 11 years. Rampell has covered a number of topics for WaPo, including politics, economics and public policy. More from TheWrap Catherine Rampell Becomes Latest Washington Post Writer to Exit Paper Trump Appeared 'Multiple Times' in Epstein Documents, New WSJ Report Says Candace Owens Sued for Defamation by French First Lady Brigitte Macron Over 'Knowingly False' Claims She's Transgender 'Daily Show' Jokes Trump's Election Theft Claim Against Obama Is 'So Old Jeffrey Epstein Wouldn't Date It' | Video The 40-year-old writer has also been a frequent critic of President Trump, ripping the president on a number of topics, from his 'Liberation Day' tariff plan, which she called 'tariffmageddon,' to his 'Restoring Freedom of Speech and Ending Federal Censorship' executive order in January. She called the EO the 'start of an Orwellian effort to root out wrongthink from government ranks and the private sector.' Rampell's exit comes just a few months after she joined MSNBC as a co-host of 'The Weekend: Primetime,' and also follows WaPo owner Jeff Bezos' revamping of the paper's opinion section to focus on 'two key pillars': personal liberties and free markets. A number of prominent WaPo staffers left soon after, including opinion editor David Shipley, who resigned immediately. Columnist Ruth Marcus, who had been at the paper for 40 years, quit weeks later, after she said a column 'expressing concern' over Bezos' new direction for the opinion section was 'spiked.' More WaPo staffers have left recently, including columnist Jonathan Capehart, who accepted a buyout on Monday, as well as Dave Jorgenson, WaPo's 'TikTok Guy.' A person familiar with the newsroom told TheWrap on Monday it would not be surprising to see more people leave the paper this week, as it is offering buyouts to those who do not 'feel aligned' with the paper's 'reinvention' through the end of July.

NFL holdouts/hold-ins tracker: Ranking the heat of the 7 most notable situations
NFL training camp season is officially upon us, which means holdout/hold-in season is too. Who are the big names who either haven't reported or aren't taking full part in practice while seeking a new contract? Are their situations roiling or boiling? Here's the latest, where we rank each situation by the attention and rancor from both sides. Cincinnati Bengals first-round pick Shemar Stewart Stewart is seeking the same contract structure past draft picks, both with Cincinnati and across the league at his draft slot, were given in years past. For that, he was the target of the Bengals brass' ire on Monday. This is arguably the most acrimonious standoff we have right now. Dallas Cowboys pass rusher Micah Parsons Parsons is watching practice with back tightness Wednesday, and isn't calling himself a hold-in. But he had some pointed responses to Jerry Jones' wild media conference from Monday. This deal could have gotten done months ago, but in the interim, Myles Garrett and now T.J. Watt have reset the top end of the pass rush market. This could become the story of NFL training camps this year. [Join or create a Yahoo Fantasy Football league for the 2025 NFL season] Cincinnati Bengals pass rusher Trey Hendrickson Hendrickson left for Florida instead of reporting to Bengals camp over an offer he called "atrociously, atrociously low." Hendrickson, the NFL's reigning sack leader, reportedly wants guaranteed money past the first year, and Cincinnati hasn't been willing to meet him there in negotiations. For their part, the Bengals have spoken positively and cordially about Hendrickson. Washington Commanders WR Terry McLaurin McLaurin didn't report on Tuesday, and has been replaced on the reserve/did not report list for the time being. After a career year in 2024, he expressed frustration over the negotiations last week. This is something that could derail all the positive momentum in Washington the past two years, and a big one to watch. Green Bay Packers OL Elgton Jenkins Jenkins was in attendance as Packers reported to camp on Tuesday, but he's not practicing Wednesday with what's being listed as a back injury. Green Bay just paid offensive lineman Zach Tom record-setting signing bonus money as part of his new contract. Will Jenkins get one too? San Francisco 49ers WR Jauan Jennings Jennings is officially practicing with the 49ers, which indicates he's not planning to hold in. Head coach Kyle Shanahan disputed the report that Jennings had asked for a trade if he didn't get a contract extension. This appears to be settled for the time being as Jennings seeks an extension. Denver Broncos WR Courtland Sutton The Broncos' No. 1 receiver was seen at practice participating in individual drills only while he reportedly seeks a new contract. Head coach Sean Payton downplayed the situation, which doesn't seem all that hostile at the moment.
