This Man Is Accused of Concealing A Fatal Secret From His Wife And Now Police Say He'll Pay For Her Death
Three years have passed since the death of Denise Broadie after a long battle of health complications. Though, following her passing, her husband was charged in connection to her death which authorities now consider to be a murder. The reason behind the charges stems from a long-held secret that could have saved Denise's life. Police charged Cleveland Broadie with three counts of murder in connection to the April 2022 death. Prior to Denise's death, she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2017. She had gone into remission after but by 2019, the illness returned, per Atlanta News First. Denise then spent the next few years undergoing rigorous chemotherapy treatments and seeing the inside of a hospital more than her own home, prosecutors said. Luckily, the cancer eventually cleared. However, the report says she was still sick. After being moved to another hospital, prosecutors say doctors discovered she was suffering from another terminal illness: HIV/AIDS. Two days after being diagnosed, Denise died at 65 years old, per FOX 5 News. The year following her death, police discovered the source of where her diagnosis came from was none other than her husband, Cleveland Broadie. Her family said the two married back in 2014 after meeting him at a Christmas party two years prior, the report says. Family members tell reporters she was deeply in love with him. However, prosecutors accused Broadie of taking advantage of that relationship and recklessly giving his wife HIV. He was arrested in July 2023 for reckless conduct and received two additional charges of the same count after other women came forward accusing him of having unprotected sex with them without disclosing his illness. He entered a not guilty plea to those charges. On the backend, the report says Denise's relatives worked with private investigators to do some extra digging to prove he'd known about his diagnosis prior to meeting Denise. This prompted prosecutors to seek even harsher charges, claiming new evidence proved he knew since 2006 about being HIV-positive but did not disclose it to Denise. On April 23, a Rockdale County grand jury slammed Broadie with two additional counts of malice murder and felony murder. Broadie's bond was also denied. 'There was malice in what he did. At any time, he could have told her and given her the right to make the decision to stay with him. Not that she would have,' said Denise's daughter, Karen Young, via FOX.

WTH?! This Grown Teacher is in Massive Trouble After Scrapping with a 13-Year-Old Because of This
A horrifying video has emerged of a Maryland substitute teacher fighting with a 13-year-old student. Now, the teacher is under investigation by both the school and local police. A student at Samuel P. Massie Academy in Prince George's County was rushed to urgent care to be treated for injuries sustained during a tussle with her substitute teacher. Cassidy, 13, tells FOX 5 News she was sitting at her desk watching a movie on her phone after she finished her reading assignment the morning of Feb. 25. She alleged the teacher suddenly snatched her phone out of her hand. In the video, the teacher can be seen holding the phone away from Cassidy as she kept reaching for it. She then stood up from her seat to reach for her phone. The teacher blocked her by putting his arm out in front of her, pushing her back. Cassidy then grabbed the teacher's shirt and from that point on, all hell broke loose. In the video, the teacher is seen grabbing the teen and slamming her on a desk, appearing to choke her. Cassidy was seen kicking her legs, desperately trying to escape his grasp. As students piled on top of the teacher to break up the interaction, he swatted them off. The footage was horrifying to watch for Cassidy's mother. 'I was sick to my stomach to see that a full-grown adult felt comfortable enough with putting his hands, not only on a child but on a 13-year-old female and slamming her around like a rag doll,' said Cassidy's mother, Anitra Lang, via FOX. 'I'm frightened not just for the safety of my child but the other students in the school.' Following the incident, the report says she was taken to an urgent care office and underwent a number of tests, including one for a concussion. The academy responded to the incident saying disciplinary actions would be taken against the teacher. In their statement, they said the teacher in question was 'removed from the classroom' but did not specify whether he was placed on leave. Prince George's County police also told reporters they are investigating the incident. 'This behavior is not in line with the standards we hold for our staff and students,' the school said in a letter addressed to families, per the outlet. 'We are collaborating with the Prince George's County Public School's Security Office.' For the latest news, Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
