Opa-locka woman's "HELP ME PLEASE" note leads to ex-boyfriend's arrest, police say

A 39-year-old man was arrested Thursday after allegedly kidnapping his ex-girlfriend at gunpoint and forcing her into her vehicle, according to the Opa-locka Police Department. The victim, who ended her year-long relationship with Talmadge Newry a week prior, was held against her will until employees at a local business discovered her plea for help, police said. According to the police report, the incident began at around 10 a.m. on June 12, 2025, when Newry allegedly pulled a gun and ordered the victim into her vehicle. The two drove around for hours, eventually stopping at a restaurant on Pembroke Road, where the vehicle's battery died, police said. Newry then drove to Battery Max, located in the 13800 block of NW 27th Ave., Opa-Locka, where he allegedly pulled the victim's shorts down to her knees to prevent her from fleeing, according to the victim's statement to police. Note leads to arrest While at Battery Max, the victim wrote a note saying, "HELP ME PLEASE," and dropped it outside the passenger door, as the vehicle's dead battery prevented her from lowering the window, police said. Employees found the note and alerted the manager, who immediately called police, according to the report. As Newry drove south on NW 27th Avenue, officers conducted a traffic stop at NW 27th Avenue and Opa-locka Boulevard, taking him into custody, police said. A black Smith & Wesson handgun was found in Newry's right front pants pocket and both the gun and the note were impounded as evidence, according to arrest report. Facing charges Newry faces charges of kidnapping, use or display of a firearm during a felony and armed robbery/carjacking, police said. He was transported to Turner Guilford Knight Correctional Center.

Ex-megachurch founder hit with $1M lawsuit claiming sexual abuse and elaborate cover-up scheme

A former Texas megachurch pastor is being sued by a woman who claims he sexually assaulted and abused her when she was 12 years old. The suit, filed this week in Dallas County District court, accuses Gateway Church founder Robert Morris and others of libel, malice, defamation, slander, failure to report, civil conspiracy, intentional infliction of emotional distress and unjust enrichment. They are seeking more than $1 million in damages. Cindy Clemishire and her father, Jerry Lee Clemishire, filed the suit less than a year after sharing the allegations with a religious watchdog blog, The Wartburg Watch. Cindy, 53, claimed she met Morris in 1981 while he was preaching at her church in Oklahoma and their families became close. She said Morris touched her inappropriately while staying at her house in 1982, and continued for the next four-and-a-half years. An Oklahoma grand jury in March indicted Morris on five counts of lewd or indecent acts with a child. He is currently out on bond. In the newly filed suit, Cindy alleges Morris' wife, sons and church members attempted to cover up the abuse for financial gain, according to a report from affiliate FOX 4. "[The] defendants acted in concert, cooperated with each other and conspired to maximize their profits through their unlawful and unjust course of action to fraudulently conceal and cover up the rape of Plaintiff," according to court documents. Morris resigned in June 2024 and later filed a lawsuit against the church, stating his "highly inappropriate" relationship with a minor was not a breach of contract, and Gateway Church should fulfill its contractual financial obligations to him. Church officials said he would have received millions in deferred compensation, additional retirement benefits and a severance payment, according to the report. Gateway Church declined Fox News Digital's request for comment.
