Influencer, 27, found dead after chilling Facebook post calling for 'help'
An influencer who was killed by her husband took to social media as a cry for help and said she had fears for her freedom shortly before her death. Zaria Khadejah Carr, 27, was discovered lifeless after she was stabbed to death at a property in Twin city, Georgia, US.
Her partner, Shamarcus Jameal Carr, went on the run and attempted to flee police. But when they caught up with him, he took his own life with a firearm. Now, it has been revealed there were warning signs in the lead up to their deaths, with Zaria writing an alarming Facebook post on June 14. She said: "I really don't know what to do... but I need help before I lose my life or freedom! My kids need me!"
Shamarcus, who called himself "Thè Frenchman" on Facebook, had earlier broadcasted his hate towards his wife. He filmed their conversation on a livestream and said: "I swear you'll die," to which Zaria responded, "Damn, I gotta die about that?"
It is understood that shortly after that conversation Shamarcus ended Zaria's life. In another video, Shamarcus confesses: "I've been cheating. F***ing off, doing my thing. So she get pregnant and I f**k around and cheat while she was pregnant."
He accused Zaria of infidelity as evidenced in one video where she repeatedly attempted to dispute his claims. Captured on tape, he is heard declaring: "This the type of b***h that get beat, long story short," before seizing a knife and demanding she exits his live stream.
Zaria's voice raises with concern as she asks: "What, you about to stab me?" His threat intensifies: "If I get off this live, you ain't gonna make it out the door."
The investigation into Shamarcus' death is being conducted by the Wayne County Sheriff's Office, with the GBI's Medical Examiner's Office slated to perform an autopsy on Zaria.
Upon conclusion of the investigation, the findings will be presented to the Middle Judicial Circuit District Attorney's Office.

I was there when Jay Slater's body was found a year ago today – why case still haunts me & what I really think happened
"YOU covered Jay Slater, didn't you?" It's a question I've been asked time and again for the best part of a year now. 11 Jay Slater's body was found on July 15, 2024 - 29 days after he went missing Credit: Ian Whittaker 11 The spot where the teenager tragically fell to his death 11 Jay Slater's mum Debbie Duncan with The Sun's Katie Davis Credit: Louis Wood 11 Grief-stricken Debbie wept as she opened up about her beloved son's disappearance and death Credit: Louis Wood And every time it makes my stomach churn as their eyes light up, hoping I will lift the lid on the ridiculous conspiracy theories they've lapped up. Jay's story is one I have followed from the moment he went missing in Tenerife on June 17 last year - and it is one of those cases that will never leave me. I was never convinced by the relentless armchair detectives - nor the outlets that regurgitated baseless theories. Outrageous claims include that Jay skipped the island on a yacht, fell foul of a drug cartel, and had been tied up hostage with chains. Jay's grieving mum wept as she opened up to me following his untimely death - and as I looked her in the eyes, I could feel the unspeakable toll of pain she was suffering. I was the only reporter in the mountains of Masca when police confirmed Jay's body had been found, and I can still feel the shock pulsing through me after a long 29-day search. But my overriding feeling was one of hope - praying it would bring the closure Jay's courageous family so badly needed. As reporters, we get a lot of stick - and trust me, I have had my fair share. But what is often forgotten is that the overriding purpose of our jobs is to fight for the truth - and filter out misinformation that is all too easily spread in this social media age. It feels like every single person I encounter has their theory on what happened to Jay - largely and sadly, informed by keyboard warriors. JAY SLATER KATIE DAVIS PTC I shut them down before they unleashed a rant at me, spewing idle comments they've picked up from going down a rabbit hole on Facebook or TikTok. Naturally, I am asked for my opinion. I'm cautious to give my judgement on stories I cover - not least to give naive minds anything to latch onto. But deep down, my gut is - and has always been - that this is a very tragic story of a British tourist falling to their death on holiday. This was a 19-year-old lad away from home for the first time with pals who, yes, drank, took drugs and probably had a bit too much fun. I feel logic is the main component missing from most trolls' arguments. Jay had been drinking and had taken drugs, and when he left the Airbnb on the morning of June 17, he had probably not slept for a fair while. Add on top of having alcohol and drugs in your system, being dehydrated, and in an unfamiliar, remote area, it's not the prettiest picture. To make matters worse, the mountainous setting of the Airbnb is hugely unforgiving. 11 Debbie with childhood photos of Jay Credit: Louis Wood 11 Jay pictured beaming in his school uniform Credit: Louis Wood 11 The remote Airbnb that Jay went to after partying Credit: Steve Reigate 11 It's violently hot and windy - enough to make even the most intrepid hiker feel uneasy. Treacherous, stony, winding paths while battling those conditions are not for the faint-hearted, and even I almost lost my footing a few times while walking through the area. Sober and rested, you will probably be fine if you're careful. But for Jay, that wasn't the case - and it ultimately cost him his life. Yet the judgement coming from pathetic wannabe detectives is almost laughable. I can guarantee almost every single crank who mindlessly taps out their thoughts has found themselves in questionable situations after drinking or taking drugs in their youth. And still, a year on, obsessive trolls continue to attempt to make out that something that happened in those final hours was linked to his death. But I am certain Jay fell accidentally. 'Cruel trolls didn't know my Jay' JAY Slater's brave mum Debbie last year hit back at critics and trolls. Just days after Jay's funeral last August, heartbroken Debbie paid tribute to him as a 'loving and popular' 19-year-old who 'had the world at his feet'. She told how Jay was devoted to his family and friends, would always dance at events and had taken her to see Bob Marley film One Love before his tragic disappearance. Debbie told The Sun: "Jay was just a lovely boy with a massive personality. 'Everybody just loved Jay being in his company - family, friends and work. 'He was loving and popular, always full of fun and smiling – and the main guy in the group. "The people saying stuff about him didn't know Jay and they don't know us. 'He hasn't been here to defend himself against all these horrible stories that were going on around the world about him. 'He worked hard, and then at weekends, he loved spending time with his friends. 'But he loved being at home as well. 'He liked cooking and was always in the kitchen with me every night." READ MORE HERE His decisions beforehand may have led him to that, but it doesn't change the fact that he fell. So I wish these idiotic flame-baiters would just leave his family alone and stop causing them further heartache by blindly attempting to connect what he did on his final night out to his death. Yes, Jay's family still desperately deserve answers to those questions hanging over about what actually happened in his last hours. But frankly, armchair detectives have never and will never help - and to be honest, I never bought into the ones claiming that's all they were trying to do. My heart bleeds for his mum Debbie, brother Zak and dad Warren, who are still battling for answers after spineless witnesses failed to show up for his inquest earlier this year. It has now been a year since Jay's body was found in a ravine in Rural de Teno National Park - and if the case still haunts me, I can't imagine how his poor family must be suffering every single day. So please, let them find answers on their own terms and without fear of seeing yet more painful lies plastered across social media. 11 Search crews scoured for Jay for days before he was found Credit: Ian Whittaker 11 Jay was an avid footballer as a child Credit: Louis Wood 11 Jay, right, with older brother Zak and mum Debbie Credit: Solarpix

Row over dogs led to assault on neighbour
The vitim was pinned to the ground and punched repeatedly. Complaints about his noisy dogs led to a Bellshill man attacking a neighbour in their common garden. Anthony Meechan choked a man before pinning him to the ground and punching him repeatedly. Meechan, 50, appeared at Hamilton Sheriff Court this week. He admitted assaulting the man, then aged 29, outside their homes in Elmbank Street on July 2 last year. Meechan also admitted failing to attend court for the case in March this year. Lewis Devoy, prosecuting, said the victim was speaking to a female neighbour around 2pm when Meechan arrived in the garden with his two dogs. Mr Devoy stated: 'There was an argument over the dogs which were barking. 'The accused asked [the victim] 'Do you want to go?', grabbed him by the throat and squeezed it. 'He then pushed his neighbour who fell on to steps. Meechan fell on top of him, pinning him to the ground, and punched him repeatedly on the face and head. '[The victim] responded with punches of his own before the female neighbour stepped forward and pulled the accused off him.' The victim sustained grazing and had back pain in the days that followed. Defence agent Martin Hughes said Meechan has only a 'very limited' criminal record, adding: 'This was a dispute over the dogs more than anything else.' Sheriff Michael Higgins deferred sentence until next month for background reports and continued bail. And did you know Lanarkshire Live is on Facebook? Head on over and give us a like and share!

Ministry of Defence data breach timeline
Here the PA news agency looks at the timeline of events in the data breach and how governments responded to it: – 22 February 2022 A UK Government worker accidentally emails a dataset containing the personal information of nearly 19,000 people who applied for the Afghan Relocations and Assistance Policy (Arap) outside of a secure government system. He sends the email in an attempt to verify information, believing the dataset to only contain around 150 rows of information. It contains around 33,000. – 14 August 2023 An anonymous Facebook user posts a small excerpt of the dataset on the social media site. The Ministry of Defence (MoD) is notified. Around 1,800 Arap applicants in Pakistan are sent a warning via WhatsApp by UK officials that their data may have been breached. – 15 August James Heappey, then armed forces minister, is sent an email warning by a civilian volunteer who assists Arap applicants after they discover the data breach. The volunteer says: 'The Taliban may well now have a 33,000 long kill list – essentially provided to them by the UK government. 'If any of these families are murdered, the government will be liable.' – 16 August The incident is reported to the Information Commissioner's Office, and later to the Metropolitan Police. – 17 August A journalist from the Daily Mail contacts the directorate of defence communications, which includes the MoD press office, seeking comment on a story he wished to run about the breach, without disclosing the personal information lost. The journalist later agrees not to publish until the MoD has a chance to implement 'protective measures'. – 18 August A representative of Facebook's parent company Meta says that the post has been removed, after requests from the MoD due to the 'risk of physical harm'. – 22 August A journalist from The News Agents podcast contacts the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office and says he has information about the data incident. This journalist also agrees not to publish until protective measures completed. – 25 August Then defence secretary Ben Wallace 'personally' makes the decision to apply for a court order. – 1 September The MoD asks the High Court for an injunction for approximately four months so that the government 'may do everything it reasonably can to help those who might have been put at further risk'. Judge Mr Justice Robin Knowles grants a superinjunction until a planned hearing on December 1. The superinjunction, which is made 'against the world', rather than named individuals, is the first of its kind. – 18 September Head media judge Mr Justice Nicklin describes the superinjunction as 'wholly exceptional' and say it 'must be kept under active review by the court'. He brings the planned hearing forward. – 13 October The MoD asks for the superinjunction to continue, with the department's deputy chief operating officer saying in written evidence that the threat to those in the dataset is 'grave'. – 16 November Cabinet committee, the Domestic and Economic Affairs committee meets. Notes from the meeting show plans to establish a compensation scheme, at a cost of between £120 million and £350 million not including administration, once the data breach is made public. – 23 November Mr Justice Chamberlain gives a private judgment where he says granting a superinjunction to the Government 'is likely to give rise to understandable suspicion that the court's processes are being used for the purposes of censorship'. He decides to continue the superinjunction 'for a period of four weeks'. – 12 December John Healey, then shadow defence secretary, is served with the superinjunction and given an initial briefing. – 18 December MoD lawyers describe the risk to life as 'immensely serious, and extends to thousands of individuals' in written submissions. Mr Justice Chamberlain extends the superinjunction until February. – 19 December The Domestic and Economic Affairs committee meets again and says that a new route of settlement in the UK should be offered to some individuals who were ineligible for Arap. This is agreed to be a targeted cohort of around 200 people and their dependents at the highest risk following the data breach, called the Afghanistan Response Route (ARR). – 15 February 2024 Mr Justice Chamberlain continues the superinjunction, finding a 'real possibility that it is serving to protect' some of those identified on the dataset. He adds in a second judgment: 'What is clear is that the Government has decided to offer help to only a very small proportion of those whose lives have been endangered by the data incident and that the decisions in this regard are being taken without any opportunity for scrutiny through the media or in Parliament.' – 21 May Mr Justice Chamberlain rules that the superinjunction should be lifted, but gives the MoD 21 days before the lifting comes into effect. He says there is a 'significant possibility' the Taliban know about the dataset, adding it is 'fundamentally objectionable' that decisions about thousands of people's lives and billions of pounds of taxpayers' money are being taken in secret. – 25 June A two-day hearing behind closed doors starts at the Court of Appeal, as the MoD challenges the decision to end the superinjunction. – 26 June At the end of the hearing, Court of Appeal judges announce that the superinjunction will continue. In a later written ruling, judges Sir Geoffrey Vos, Lord Justice Singh and Lord Justice Warby say: 'As the number of family members involved is several times the number of affected people, the total numbers of people who would be exposed to a risk of death or serious harm if the Taliban obtained the data is between 80,000 and 100,000.' – 4 July Labour enters Government following the general election. – 11 November The High Court is told by a barrister representing multiple media organisations that the government made a 'misleading' public statement about applications for assistance from Afghanistan. Jude Bunting KC adds in written submissions: 'It is a matter of concern that the public did not know that the claimant had put over 90,000 lives at risk in the recent general election, by reason of this superinjunction.' – 3 February 2025 A review of the data incident response says current plans for the Afghanistan Response Route would mean relocating more Afghans under it than had been relocated under Arap, and would extend schemes for another five years at a cost of around £7 billion. The document, addressed to the Defence Secretary, recommends a review. – 19 May The High Court is told by a Manchester-based law firm that it has more than 600 potential clients who may sue the Government under data protection laws. – 4 July The Defence Secretary concludes that the Afghanistan Response Route should be closed following an independent review which finds the data breach is 'unlikely to profoundly change the existing risk profile' of those named. The review by retired civil servant Paul Rimmer also said that the government possibly 'inadvertently added more value to the dataset' by seeking the unprecedented superinjunction and implementing a bespoke resettlement scheme. Government lawyers tell the High Court that in light of the decision to close the Afghanistan Response Route, the superinjunction 'should no longer continue'. – 15 July Mr Justice Chamberlain lifts the superinjunction.
