Grand jury indicts man suspected in killing of his wife at Gilbert hospice care facility
A California man was indicted on suspicion of first-degree murder in connection with the death of his wife, who was in hospice care at a Gilbert memory care facility. Justin Davidson, 46, was arrested on June 12, one day after his wife, 58-year-old Danielle Crosbie-Davidson, was found dead at Eternal Springs of Gilbert. The Gilbert Police Department responded to the facility around 9 a.m. on June 11 after staff reported suspicious bruising and markings on Crosbie-Davidson's body. She had passed away earlier that morning, at approximately 3 a.m. At the time of her death, Davidson, who was visiting from California, was staying in the room with his wife, who was receiving end-of-life care for advanced dementia. According to police, Davidson made admissions about his direct involvement in her death during an interview with detectives. He was subsequently arrested and booked into the custody of the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office on suspicion of first-degree murder. On June 30, the Maricopa County Attorney's Office announced that a grand jury had formally indicted Davidson on the murder charge, a Class 1 felony. He is currently being held on a $1 million bond, and his trial is tentatively set for February 2026. A spokesperson for the County Attorney's Office said they were unable to comment on the case as it is ongoing. A June 12 statement from the Gilbert police following the arrest expressed sympathy for the victim's family while reminding the public that the case investigation was still underway. 'We want to express our condolences to the victim's family during this difficult time," the statement read. "While an indictment indicates that there is enough evidence to believe a person may have committed a crime, the trial is still outstanding," they emphasized. "The Gilbert Police Department would like to remind the public that charged or submitted offenses are merely allegations. All defendants are presumed innocent until pleading guilty or being found guilty."

Interim Osceola County sheriff to run for the job
Interim Osceola County Sheriff Christopher Blackmon is vying for the job on a more permanent basis. Blackmon said he will run for the position in the next election. It will be the first time he has run for office. Before taking on the Osceola County role, he was central region chief for the Florida Highway Patrol. Blackmon was appointed as interim sheriff after the arrest of Marcos Lopez, who was suspended after being charged with racketeering. The Osceola County elections supervisor, Mary Jane Arrington, said the election will not be until 2028, four year after Lopez's reelection. Arrington said there will not be a special election, meaning Blackmon will stay on as interim sheriff until the 2028 election. Click here to download our free news, weather and smart TV apps.

Michael Madsen 'struggled to maintain his sobriety' before death
Michael Madsen was reportedly struggling with alcohol addiction before his death. The 67-year-old actor was pronounced dead on Thursday (03.07.25) after being found unresponsive at his Malibu home, with his manager Ron Smith telling that 'cardiac arrest' appeared to be the cause of death. And, Michael's lawyer Perry Wander, who represented him for 20 years, said the Kill Bill actor had 'struggled to maintain his sobriety'. He told 'I just spoke to Michael two days ago. I knew he was not well.' 'Michael was suffering from the effects of alcoholism. He had multiple stints in and out of rehab. He struggled to maintain his sobriety. He was not happy about his life.' The lawyer also claimed that Michael was locked in a legal battle with his estranged wife over child support and other finances. He said: 'I blame her for putting in the screws over his last years of life. Michael lived a life of regrets - those regrets being his two marriages.' He added that the legal battle caused his passport to be 'maliciously revoked', which impacted his ability to travel and work abroad. Michael suffered a devastating loss in 2022 when his son Hudson took his own life at the age of 26. The star is survived by his five other children, Jessica who he shared with Dana Mechling, Christian and Max, whose mother is Jeannine Bisignano and Luke and Kalvin, whose mom is Madsen's wife DeAnna Morgan. Madsen was married to Georganne LaPiere, half-sister of Cher from 1984 to 1988. He went on to marry Bisignano from 1991 to 1995 before tying the knot with DeAnna in 1996 and welcoming Luke, Kalvin and Hudson together. The relationship had its ups and downs, and his death comes just 11 months after his domestic violence case - where he was accused of shoving DeAnna - was dismissed due to 'insufficient evidence'. Madsen was best known for his work with director Quentin Tarantino, including classics such as 1992's in Reservoir Dogs, 2004's Kill Bill: Volume 2, 2015's The Hateful Eight, and Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, which was released in 2019.
