‘Ticking time bomb' Marine vet, 42, violently kicks, yanks 6-year-old stepson on dog leash, disturbing video shows
Disturbing video allegedly captured a former US Marine repeatedly kicking and ferociously yanking his 6-year-old stepson on a dog leash during what Florida prosecutors described as two days of horrific torture, according to reports. Zachary Perez, 42, was allegedly caught on home surveillance footage parading the youngster through their Miami home with a pink leash wrapped around his neck and then aggressively jerking him backward to the ground, multiple videos obtained by NBC 6 showed. Other horrifying videos, released by the Miami-Dade State Attorney's Office, captured the unhinged stepdad seemingly chasing the youngster with a stick, kicking him as he ran through the living room and viciously booting him in the stomach onto a bed in the boy's bedroom. 4 Zachary Perez, 42, was allegedly captured on home surveillance walking the boy around the home with a leash. Miami-Dade SAO Prosecutors, who described Perez — an Iraq War vet — as a 'ticking time bomb' willing to hurt anyone, said he was also seen forcing the boy to walk outside wearing a backpack filled with rocks during the malicious two-day ordeal, the outlet reported. The alleged abuse left the young boy with swollen eyes from being punched, scratches across his body, a rash on his neck from the dog collar and marks from tree branches used to whip him, court records alleged. 4 Perez appears to hold a stick as the child, who is blurred, is in the yard with him. Miami-Dade SAO The youngster's mother, Barbara Perez, previously claimed in court that her son now suffers from PTSD, a traumatic brain injury and hearing problems as a result of Perez's alleged savage cruelty. Perez's attorney claimed the boy's mother asked for help caring for the child and gave him permission to discipline him — a claim prosecutors argued lacks any evidence. 4 Since Zachary Perez's arrest, multiple people, including his 14-year-old daughter, have reportedly come forward with additional allegations of abuse, prosecutors said. Miami Dade Corrections The frenzied stepfather was arrested and charged back in May with aggravated child abuse — an allegation in which he pleaded not guilty. Since his arrest, multiple individuals have reportedly come forward with additional allegations of abuse, including his 14-year-old daughter, prosecutors said. 4 Prosecutors said the horrific abuse lasted for two days. Miami-Dade SAO The rampaging madman was initially denied bail but was released on house arrest on June 10. Perez was reportedly ordered to remain at least 500 feet away from his stepson and the boy's mother, and have no contact with either of them. Perez is due back in court on Aug. 28.

Ring door cam footage shared on NBC6 captured a small Cessna Skymaster plane falling out of the sky, narrowly avoiding homes before crashing into a tree and landing in a yard around 8:10 p.m. local time. The two-engine plane was traveling from Turks and Caicos on a three-hour flight to the North Perry Airport in Broward County about 30 minutes north of Miami, NBC News reported. It crashed just a mile short of the runway. Neighbors quickly rushed to action, grabbing hoses and axes to help extract the plane's passengers.

'What sounded like a very loud muffler, was in fact an airplane engine stopped by a massive tree,' Giovanna Hanley, who had been visiting her parents' home in Pembroke Pines when the plane went down, wrote on Facebook. Hanley said her father-in-law was across the street and helping to break glass and pull out passengers within seconds of the crash. 'Because of him and our neighbors' heroic efforts, 4 individuals were pulled to safety,' Hanley wrote. 'By the time EMS arrived, all were accounted for, being cared for, and fire had been extinguished.' Fellow neighbor Robert Cox told NBC, 'There's a blessing in this that nobody was killed and that's primarily because the plane didn't blow up.' This isn't the first time a plane has gone down near North Perry Airport. In 2021, 4-year-old Taylor Bishop died when a plane crashed into his mother's SUV. Pembroke Pines Mayor Angelo Castillo told NBC that there have been 36 crashes in the past five years within Pembroke Pines. 'This community wants to feel safe,' he said. 'I'm calling on the Broward County Commission to conduct a full, complete and independent investigation of safety at this airport.' The Federal Aviation Administration is investigating the cause of the crash. Read the original article on People

Miami archbishop slams Everglades immigrant detention site as 'unbecoming' and ‘corrosive'
The Archdiocese of Miami is condemning Florida's controversial migrant detention facility — which state officials have named 'Alligator Alcatraz' — calling it 'unbecoming of public officials' and 'corrosive of the common good.' In a strongly worded statement posted to the Archdiocese's website, Archbishop Thomas Wenski criticized both the conditions at the remote detention site in the Everglades and the rhetoric surrounding it. He wrote: 'It is unbecoming of public officials and corrosive of the common good to speak of the deterrence value of 'alligators and pythons' at the Collier-Dade facility.' Wenski's statement also highlighted humanitarian concerns, noting the isolation of the facility from medical care and the vulnerability of the temporary tent structures to Florida's harsh summer weather and hurricane threats. He also called for chaplains and ministers to be granted access to serve those in custody. Meanwhile, a group of Democratic state lawmakers has filed a lawsuit against the state after being denied entry to the site last week. The complaint argues they are legally entitled to 'immediate, unannounced access' to the facility. 'We weren't looking for a sanitized field trip,' said State Sen. Shevrin Jones (D-District 34). 'If [the allegations are] false, prove it. Show it.' NBC6 has been reporting on detainees' and family members' allegations of "inhumane conditions": limited access to showers, spoiled food, extreme heat, and mosquito infestations. The state has categorically denied these claims. Lawmakers were later invited to a scheduled, 90-minute guided tour of the facility — but some say that's not sufficient to ensure transparency. Speaker of the House Danny Perez (R) defended the facility, stating, 'It's not a five-star hotel nor should it be a five-star resort. This is a detention center holding criminals.' Miami-Dade Mayor Daniella Levine Cava has also requested access to the site. Her office says she is still waiting for a response, emphasizing that the property is located on county land. The legal battle and public outcry add new urgency to the debate over immigration enforcement in Florida and the use of isolated, heavily guarded detention sites.
