'Gotta be the drugs, Bro' – Marcus Jordan sparks frenzy with mystery woman sighting in Miami amid trial delay
Marcus Jordan sparks frenzy with mystery woman sighting in Miami amid trial delay (Image Credit: Getty Images) While everyone else in the felony investigation is keeping a low profile, Marcus Jordan appears to be doing just the opposite. The son of NBA icon Michael Jordan hit the headlines once again over the weekend. Well, it's not for any development in the courtroom, but for kissing mysterious women. That escalated pretty fast! However, if that wasn't enough to create a buzz, he is also clubbing in Miami while awaiting his next court appearance for serious drug charges. His recent public outings were complete PDA, beach selfies, and clubbing. Meanwhile, these are giving fans and critics both something to raise an eyebrow about. Is Marcus spiraling out of control, or simply living his life a little too much on the drug? Marcus Jordan's public PDA made fans question his behavior To put the backlash into perspective, you have to go back to February 4, 2025. But before that, let's have a look at what the public had to say about his canoodling pictures, as reported by TMZ. 'Gotta be the drugs Bro.' One user commented. 'He in his Coke era doing anything?' another user said. 'What are they eating each other's faces?' another said. 'Curious, nu Marcus "do" anything that's self-preservation related?' another comment reads. 'He loves them snow bunnies and wonder why he is always cracked out,' another said. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like The Top 25 Most Beautiful Women In The World Articles Vally Undo 'That boy is living exactly how a billionaire son should,' another comment says. Jordan's arrest in Orange County, Florida, happened when his Lamborghini became stranded on train tracks. Oh boy! It was a scene that looked like it was out of a movie, without the glitz. He was charged with DUI, resisting arrest without force, and felony possession of ketamine, which police first thought was cocaine. The tests later revealed it was ketamine, a Schedule III controlled substance. Flash-forward to June, that's where his attorneys petitioned to postpone the trial, initially scheduled for June 23. The court granted the request, pushing proceedings to September 2025 to enable time for plea negotiations. Meanwhile, Jordan reported to fans on Instagram during May that he was "40 days sober and counting." That makes his flashy Miami weekend even more confusing. From courtroom to club, and now Miami PDA tour Then arrived the TMZ pics: Marcus kissing model Ashley Stevenson on the beach. Her fans immediately pointed out how much she resembled his former flame, Larsa Pippen. This just added fuel to the drama. Recall that Marcus and Ashley were seen together in France last year but denied any romance, until now. And that wasn't the only beachside encounter. Just the day before that, Marcus was spotted with another unidentified female, once again in full PDA mode. Two days, two females, and one very confused fanbase. Whereas tabloids were having the time of their lives with the news, fans weren't laughing. Most labeled his actions "reckless," given his continued legal battle and public declarations of sobriety. Others were quick to connect the actions with his very public breakup with Larsa Pippen in 2024, which took an apparent hard emotional toll. Even Larsa herself has spoken about the relationship being a "rollercoaster," stating her children urged her to end it. Meanwhile, Real Housewives star Marysol Patton recently said Marcus appeared to be "headed down a bad path" after the breakup. There's no denying Marcus is struggling to balance public image with personal identity. As the son of basketball royalty, scrutiny follows him everywhere. His arrest footage even captured him saying, 'I'm Marcus Jordan. I'm Michael Jordan's son. I'm not doing anything wrong.'

Do You Do It? gofitlifeguide Click Here Undo Iran's cyber command is in a panic, and officials can't use devices that let them access social media. Who's behind the cyberattack on Iran's bank system? According to reports, a pro-Israel hacker group launches a cyberattack that disrupts ATMs, gas stations, and financial services, crippling Iran's Sepah Bank, which finances the IRGC's missile and nuclear programs. Live Events Iran was the target of a massive cyberattack Tuesday afternoon, just after Maj. Gen. Shlomi Binder, the head of the IDF Military Intelligence Directorate, whe head of IDF intelligence hinted that more military action might be coming after Israel's successful attack on Tehran, as quoted in a report by Y NetNews. ALSO READ: Tehran evacuation order: Trump calls for immediate withdrawal from Iran's capital — what we know so far Iran International revealed that the pro-Israel hacker collective Predatory Sparrow had launched a significant cyberattack that targeted several Iranian banks. Around noon local time, Iran's Fars News Agency, which is connected to the IRGC, confirmed the cyberattack and stated that gas stations all over the nation were experiencing disruptions. Why are Iran's fuel and ATM networks crashing? A major branch of the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and one of Iran's biggest financial institutions, Sepah Bank, has reported that its ATMs are not allowing cash withdrawals. The group, which has previously claimed responsibility for attacks on Iranian steel, fuel, and security infrastructure, claimed to have erased all of Sepah Bank's data. It asserted that the bank had been used to finance IRGC activities, such as Iran's nuclear and missile programs, and to get around international sanctions. In a statement, the group thanked "allies" who helped with the operation and said, "This is the fate of an institution dedicated to sustaining the dictator's terrorist fantasies." Banking services were interrupted an hour ago when a cyberattack targeted Sepah Bank's infrastructure. There may be delays at certain gas stations in the upcoming hours because the bank serves a number of them. Fars claims that the cascading failures observed at stations can be explained by the crucial role Sepah Bank plays in sustaining Iran's national fuel distribution network. Iranian social media posted a video of a man who said he went to ten ATMs but was unable to take out cash from any of them. Following the hack, Iran's cyber directorate issued a directive prohibiting senior staff, government officials, and their security teams from using devices linked to social media sites. FAQs What was the cyberattack's target in Iran? It struck Sepah Bank, disrupting ATMs and fuel networks. The attackers claim that the bank funds Iran's missile and nuclear programs. Why are Tehran residents panicking? Explosions have rocked the city, ATMs are down, and key officials are reportedly fleeing. The cyberattack has disrupted critical services.

Meghalaya honeymoon murder: State govt bans use of private vehicles for tourist rentals
The Meghalaya government has banned renting out private vehicles – both two-wheelers and four-wheelers – for commercial use to ensure tourist safety. The directive comes in the wake of the Raja Raghuvanshi murder case. The Office of the Commissioner of Transport issued an order in this regard on 13 June 2025. It said that Meghalaya has not implemented the Rent-a-Motorcycle or Rent-a-Cab schemes. Therefore, no individual or agency is legally authorised to offer private vehicles for hire in the state. NDTV reported that David D. Sangma, the Commissioner of Transport, said that the violators will face severe consequences, including fines, vehicle seizure, and potential imprisonment. Superintendent of Police (Traffic), East Khasi Hills, K Prasad said: 'We have received the order from the Commissioner of Transport and have activated all our ground staff and traffic personnel. Anyone found violating the provisions during checking will face strict action as per the Motor Vehicles Act,' reported NDTV. 'We are inspecting vehicles coming both from outside and within the city. We've deployed our traffic personnel at prime spots such as Mawlai, MES Junction, and tourist viewpoints. If anyone is found hiring or giving private vehicles without valid permits, action will be taken under Sections 182E and 207 of the MVI Act,' Prasad said. He further stated: 'Rapido services not registered under the Transport Department will be covered under this action too.' Raja Raghuvanshi, an Indore-based businessman, was allegedly killed by his wife, Sonam and three men while the couple was on a honeymoon trip to Meghalaya. Meghalaya Police's Special Investigation Team on Tuesday reconstructed the crime scene in Sohra in the presence of the accused Sonam Raghuvanshi and three others as part of their investigations into the murder of Raja Raghuvanshi. Superintendent of Police, East Khasi Hills, Vivek Syiem, said that the reconstruction of the crime scene was very successful as the police 'got a very clear picture now'.

'The SIT today visited several places to re-play how the accused did it. We started from the parking lot where they had kept their went to the viewpoint, and ascertained who was standing where just before the murder. There were three blows - first by Vishal, second by Anand and the last blow by Akash. We have ascertained that one more machete still needs to be recovered. The accused replayed how they threw the machete. SDRF are trying to recover the second weapon,' he said. Speaking to the media, Syiem also said: 'We have ascertained what happened to Raja's mobile phone. It was damaged by Sonam and then by Vishal. This whole thing was played out, and also their exit from here.' 'We have ascertained that the victim was hit with the first hit was by Vishal aka Raja was hit and blood came out, Sonam moved away from the spot. The three accused threw the body down,' he added.
