Missouri man charged with stabbing girlfriend's father after alleged Facebook post
AURORA, Mo. — An early morning stabbing in Aurora sends one man to the hospital and another to jail. Tristian Bryne, 21, of Aurora is being held in the Lawrence County Jail without bond on charges of first degree domestic assault and armed criminal action. Early Thursday morning, officers with the Aurora Marionville Police Department responded to a residence in the 600 block of South Harrison in Aurora for a stabbing. Officers say when they arrived, they found Jason Long, 42, with multiple stab wounds to his abdomen. He was airlifted to a trauma center for surgery where he's currently listed in stable condition. AMPD says Long is the father of Bryne's girlfriend and they all live together at the residence where the stabbing happened. Court records say about two hours before the stabbing Bryne made the Facebook post below: According to the probable cause affidavit filed in Lawrence County, witnesses told investigators that it was Long who was the aggressor. They told police, Long was drunk and verbally harassing those in the home. Investigators say witnesses reported that Long physically assaulted Bryne before the stabbing. Court records say Bryne admitted to stabbing Long but said it was in self-defense. He is scheduled for arraignment next week. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Aurora woman gets probation after biting officer, threatening others with knife
AURORA, Mo. — An Aurora woman who allegedly threatened two children with a knife and bit a police officer while being placed under arrest last year has pleaded guilty to charges. According to online court documents, Brittany K. Gould has pleaded guilty to charges of second and third degree assault, both felonies, and misdemeanor fourth-degree domestic assault. Gould was sentenced to five years of supervised probation under a suspended imposition of sentence for the felony charges, as well as 10 days in jail for the misdemeanor charge, with credit for time served in jail. PREVIOUS STORY: Aurora woman charged after biting officer, threatening others with knife As a condition of her probation, Gould must complete a Living Hope addiction recovery program. As a result of her plea arraignment, four of Gould's original charges from the incident — felony unlawful use of a weapon, misdemeanor resisting arrest, and two counts of misdemeanor second-degree endangering the welfare of a child — were dropped. According to previous Ozarks First coverage, officers with the Aurora Marionville Police Department (AMPD) responded at around 10:18 p.m. on Nov. 28, 2024, for reports that Gould was threatening the residents of the home she was at.

Aurora woman pleads guilty to first of three shootings
MOUNT VERNON, M0. – In a surprising move today, the Aurora woman accused of gunning down her estranged husband, the father of her child and that man's girlfriend pleaded guilty to the first of those alleged offenses. Taylor Paige Santiago is to be sentenced June 10, 2025, for the first-degree murder of her husband Troy Huffman. She pleaded guilty in Lawrence County Circuit Court on April 3 to murder, robbery, unlawful use of a weapon and endangering the welfare of a child. Aurora police investigating homicides in Missouri and Arkansas after woman turns herself in She had earlier waived her right to counsel and her Miranda rights to remain silent. The range of punishments to which she could be sentenced include life in prison for first-degree murder and one to seven years for each of the other counts. According to court documents, Santiago arrived at the Aurora Police and Fire facility on Jan. 23 to tell officers she had killed Huffman. When they arrived at the apartment, they found Huffman dead. Aurora Marionville Police Department Chief Wes Coatney says that Santiago shot Huffman several times with a .38 caliber revolver and that a child was inside the home at the time of the shooting. Court documents go on to say Santiago also disclosed to police that she had driven to Arkansas earlier and shot two additional people, including the biological father of one of her children, who was also home at the time of the shooting. Police have also seized the gun they believe Santiago used in the incidents, according to AMPD and there is no ongoing threat to the Aurora or Marionville community. In Arkansas, the Carroll County Sheriff's Office said deputies located a male and a female victim at a residence. The male was transported to the hospital in serious condition. The female was pronounced dead. During the post-Miranda interview, Santiago told police she invited Huffman to her residence for the sole reason of killing him and then stealing his car. She admitted to police she drove Huffman's car to Carroll County to kill Huffman's estranged lover and her current lover. Santiago is not yet charged with the Arkansas shootings. The man who was shot but survived there is identified in court papers as NG. Family members of the woman killed said her name was Sophia Williams. Ozarks First will report on sentencing in June and will continue to pursue details on the Arkansas shooting when charges are filed in that state. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc.
