Charges considered after missing Denton woman found safe in Michigan with sister, police say
Karen May Taube
CBS News Texas
Karen May Taube was located with her sister, Eva Haron, who allegedly removed her from an assisted living facility without legal consent, police said.
Unauthorized removal under review
Denton police and the Denton County District Attorney's Office are reviewing potential charges against Haron for allegedly interfering with the legal rights of a court-appointed guardian by removing Taube from Willow Bend Assisted Living & Memory Care on May 12.
Authorities said Taube is under court-appointed guardianship, which does not authorize contact with Haron.
Woman evaluated at hospital, returning to Denton
Taube was located and positively identified at the hotel by the Roscommon County Sheriff's Department. Investigators had believed she and Haron were traveling together in a white Ford F-150, though Taube was not considered to be in immediate danger.
As a precaution, Taube was taken to a hospital for evaluation and will be transported back to Denton under the supervision of her court-appointed legal guardian, according to police.
The Dallas FBI assisted in the search.

Four arrested after break-in at home reportedly owned by Brad Pitt, say police
Four people have been arrested in connection with a burglary earlier this summer at a Los Angeles home reportedly owned by actor Brad Pitt, police said. Officers responded on June 25 to a break-in at the house in the Los Feliz area of the city. Police said at the time that suspects broke in through the front window, ransacked the home and fled with miscellaneous property. Detectives have made four arrests, Officer Drake Madison said on Tuesday. He said the suspects' names could be released later in the day. Officials could not identify who owned or lived in the home, and no information was available on what was stolen. Pitt reportedly bought the property for 5.5 million US dollars (£4 million) in April 2023, according to Traded, a commercial real estate website. A representative for the actor declined to comment on Tuesday. Pitt had been out of the country in June on a globe-spanning promotional tour for his new movie, F1.

Oklahoma QB John Mateer reportedly denies Venmo payments referencing 'sports gambling' were related to betting
Oklahoma QB John Mateer has reportedly denied any involvement with sports betting after screenshots of his Venmo account went viral Monday night. Mateer's Venmo history no longer exists. The alleged transactions were from the fall of 2022 when Mateer was a true freshman at Washington State and one transaction referenced USC and UCLA. The transactions allegedly included "sports gambling" twice in the memo section. According to ESPN, Mateer denies "ever being involved in gambling" and Oklahoma is planning an investigation. Mateer transferred to Oklahoma after the 2024 season. He followed Washington State offensive coordinator Ben Arbuckle to Norman after Washington State scored 36.6 points per game a season ago. Only five more teams scored more per game than the Cougars did. Oklahoma, meanwhile, averaged 24 points a game and ranked 97th in the country. Mateer was the catalyst for Washington State's offense. He completed nearly 65% of his passes for 3,139 yards and 29 TDs while also leading the team in rushing. He had 178 carries for 826 yards and 15 TDs and tied Miami's Cam Ward for the most total touchdowns in college football. A player found to have wagered on his or her own sport involving a game with other schools can lose up to half a season of eligibility. A player who wagered on something involving his or her own team can face a permanent loss of eligibility. In 2023, former Iowa State QB Hunter Dekkers lost his eligibility after he was found to have placed a $15 bet on ISU football in 2021 when he was a backup.
