Murder charges reveal horrific injuries as mother is accused in death of toddler son
A Moorhead mother has been charged with murder following the death of her 20-month-old child earlier this month. Valerie Zamora, 32, has been charged with 2nd-degree murder after her son, Jose, died at Sanford Medical Center in Fargo on May 15, having been brought to the hospital by Zamora. Warning: The following contains upsetting details. Police had been called shortly after Jose died as his body showed signs of bruising. Detectives who arrived at the hospital "noted various bruising all over the victim and that the [boy's] belly was distended." An autopsy later revealed the boy's death was the result of "complications of blunt force injuries due to assault," with Jose suffering a number of bruises to his abdomen, head , face, jaw/neck, chest, arm, back, and legs. He had a perforated bowel, hemorrhages to the liver and pancreas, and healing rib fractures. Interviewing Zamora at the scene, she said her son woke up on the morning of May 15 and was vomiting. After she gave him Tylenol and Gatorade, the boy "basically" slept all day, but said she noticed he was breathing different and "not acting like himself," according to the charges. She explained the bruising by claiming he bruises easily. Zamora said she lives at a home with Jose, her two other children, and an individual referred to in the complaint as DEP. She said on the evening of May 15, she drove to Walmart in Dilworth with DEP to get her son Pedialyte, but while she was in the store, DEP came in to tell her Jose was vomiting blood, at which point she "sped" to the hospital. But the complaint says Zamora's story began to change regarding how sick he had been leading up to his arrival at the hospital, saying that the vomiting had actually started a day earlier and got progressively worse, to the point he was vomiting "a black or dark substance." She claims she told DEP they should take the boy to the hospital, but she didn't seek medical care until at the Walmart. Police spoke with several neighbors, friends, and Zamora's two other children, who said they had seen the boy during the day of May 15 and said they told Zamora she needed to take him to the hospital, and later told her to call an ambulance. One of her children told police she got home from school and "immediately noticed" her younger brother needed medical care, and told Zamora to take him to the hospital, saying he was "struggling to breathe and cold." The girl told police she was worried her brother was going to die in her arms. When she came to be interviewed four days after her son's death, Zamora's "timeline of the events leading up the death continued to change," the complaint claims. "Defendant was adamant that she did not hurt the victim however she admitted that she did not take him for medical care initially because she said it was 'obviously neglect' and was afraid social services would take her children away," it continues. "Notes from medical personnel at the hospital indicate when the victim was brought into the lobby, the victim was pale, clammy, cold and pulseless."

What does "Hey, hey" mean in Sirens? There's a simple explanation for the phrase used by Julianne Moore's pals
If you keep saying "Hey hey!" to yourself / random people, you are not alone. The phrase is omnipresent in Netflix's new black comedy Sirens, and is part of the cultish language used by Michaela's friends (er, cult members?). But if you're wondering what it means, exactly, there's actually a simple explanation. Creator Molly Smith Metzler tells Variety that the phrase was based on the insider-y language she heard during her own time working summer jobs in Martha's Vineyard. "In my summers in Martha's Vineyard, when I worked at the Yacht Club, I had noticed that they picked up each other's way of saying things," she explained. "One woman would come in with a new bracelet that just dropped in town, and then they'd all have it. They did it with language, too, they had their own way of speaking and there was a contagion to it. In my mind, Michaela just sort of said it one day, and then Simone said it back, and it became something the two of them say. I just made it up." And speaking of the show's interesting language / writing choices, if you're wondering why Jose calls Michaela - and then Simone - "mi amore" that's a reference to the play on which Sirens was based. "That's in the play," Smith Metzler said. "There are very few things that are verbatim in the play that make it to the series, but Jose calling Michaela 'Mi Amor,' and then later transferring that to someone else, that's always been in there. I love Jose. I wanted to keep it because it's a good reminder that Jose has a lot of power in this house." Metlzer continued: "He sees and knows everything, and says nothing. He knows where all the bodies are buried. He's higher up on the food chain than Michaela, even though it doesn't seem like that when you meet them. There's a tinge of condescension to 'Mi Amor' as well." Obsessed. Sirens is currently streaming on Netflix - run don't walk.

High School Sweethearts in Their 50s Spent $90K to Get Facelifts Together. Now They're Closer Than Ever (Exclusive)
Sonia and Jose started dating when they were teenagers and have now been married for 30 years In September 2024, the Grover Beach, Calif., couple decided to undergo plastic surgery procedures one day apart from each other Healed and feeling more confident, the pair opens up to PEOPLE about their joint nips-and-tucks and the ups and downs of their journeyThe couple that gets plastic surgery together, stays together. Husband and wife Jose and Sonia have known each other for what some might consider forever. After being acquainted as family friends as kids, the two began dating in high school and have been married for three decades. In September 2024, the couple, who are now in their 50s and reside in Grover Beach, Calif., decided to do something new in their marriage — and not on the level of trying a new restaurant for date night or buying a vacation home with their family. Instead, they decided to get plastic surgery at the same time. "Jose and I are pretty open about it," Sonia, 51, tells PEOPLE approximately seven months after her facial rejuvenation. She, a health center manager, has undergone cosmetic procedures before, having gotten Botox, fillers and a "Mommy Makeover" that included a breast lift and tummy tuck. But by the time she reached 50, she was more than ready to continue her journey with a facelift. "That was my goal. [She thought] when I turn 50, I won't have a big party, but I'll give myself the gift of looking refreshed again." On the other hand, Jose, 54 and the founder of construction company Quincon Inc., had never done anything to his face or body, but experienced a change of heart when Sonia casually brought up the idea of a subtle makeover. "Jose's got a baby face, but he had a little bit of excess on his neck. I told him, 'What about getting [plastic surgery] together,' since he's always been supportive of me in the past. He's been my nurse and my caregiver, so I said, 'You still have to take care of me, so why don't we take care of each other?'" Then, the couple paid a visit to Beverly Hills, Calif.-based surgeon Dr. Carl Truesdale, who is famous for his dramatic transformations on a range of patients, including his own mother. By the end of the joint consultation, Jose was on board. The pair share a son, 30, and a daughter, 24, who didn't know much about what their parents were about to get into, which Sonia and Jose wanted. "I told them I was going to get just a neck lift because I didn't want to worry them about me being under anesthesia for so long," adds Sonia. She also ended up undergoing a fat transfer procedure, buccal fat removal, a lip lift and some eye work involving a lid lift and what is called a lower eye pinch, which is the removal of excess fat from the lower eyelid area. Never miss a story — sign up for to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories. Jose kept plans of his neck and facelift under the radar until after his procedure was completed. "I wanted to keep it more just between me and Sonia. I just wanted to keep it quiet." Surgery time came and went for the couple, who decided to space their operations one day apart from each other. Sonia went first (by her preference) and spent nearly half a day on the operating table. While she recovered, Jose went in next for his six-hour procedure. Sonia's procedures in total cost approximately $60,000, while Jose's hit around $30,000. Post-operation, each were monitored by a nurse aid who made sure everything went according to plan. Jose experienced "mild" complications near his ear drains, which flush out fluid near the surgical site to accelerate healing, states the Cleveland Clinic. Without care, this can cause a hematoma, which is pooling of blood within the body. Aside from that, recuperation for the pair went smoothly. The only thing that they wish they would've taken into further consideration was how they were going to help each other physically recover without extra hands at home. "You have to be very careful on doing everything. We were both recovering and couldn't really help each other that much," reveals Jose. But "emotionally, it's the greatest thing ever because we're both feeling the same pain and the same ups and downs that you go through for those first two weeks [after surgery]," he adds. They kept track of each other's antibiotic intakes and performed lymphatic drainage massages on one another. The time spent together looked a little different from their usual outings, but nonetheless, "I really enjoyed that time with him," says Sonia. is now available in the Apple App Store!

After a few days, the couple were finally ready to unveil their transformations, which might seem nerve-wracking. What happens if the person you've known for your whole life suddenly looks different? Thankfully, they each had wonderful things to say about the other's results. "I was amazed," Jose says of his wife. "His neck looked really nice. Very snatched," adds Sonia. Before their transformations, the two were confident in themselves. Now, though, they live life with more vigor. "Refreshed and rejuvenated," Sonia and Jose look like how they feel — and that is a young couple at heart. "We wanted to look happy, alive, not tired and the procedures helped us with that]." Further plastic surgery will have to be "played by ear" they say, and for now, they'll enjoy their routine of going out for sushi every Tuesday and socializing with their friends. Sonia and Jose were the first couple Dr. Truesdale has worked on, and he tells PEOPLE that the experience was "truly something special." "They're the definition of 'couple goals.' I always like to say, a couple that facelifts together stays together. They really embody mutual support, and I knew I had to deliver an exceptional result for them," he says. "Twice the love, twice the number of happy patients." Read the original article on People
