Tiger Woods arrested after rolling his vehicle during a two-car crash. According to police, Woods was attempting to pass a truck in front of him on a two-lane road in Jupiter Island, Florida, but Wood’s Range Rover clipped the back of the truck. No other vehicles were involved. Wood was able to crawl out of the passenger side window. Officers on the scene administered a breathalyzer test, with Woods blowing zero, negative for alcohol. Officers still suspected Woods was impaired, saying the golf legend appeared “lethargic.” He then refused a urine test. Woods was then taken into custody. Woods entered a written plea of 'not-guilty' to a DUI charge and was granted permission by Judge Darren Steele, to travel to Switzerland for rehab. Woods spent 40 days at the facility in intensive physical and psychological care before returning to the USA when girlfriend, Vanessa Trump, announced was undergoing treatment for breast cancer. Woods spent 10 days in Florida as her treatment began, but opted to return to Switzerland to continue his treatment plan. Woods will miss all Golf's major tournaments this year.

In this gripping episode of Crime Stories, Nancy Grace unpacks the horrific murder and dismemberment of Celeste Rivas Hernandez, allegedly perpetrated by multi-millionaire musician David Anthony Burke, who performs under the moniker D4VD. The panel thoroughly dissects a disturbing digital trail left by the suspect, including a promotional TikTok video where he appears to wrap a human finger—a chilling detail given that Celeste’s ring finger was severed from her body—and a Twitch livestream where a stomach-turning odor is casually blamed on a backed-up toilet. The investigation uncovers explosive new timeline details, including a revelation from Celeste’s best friend that the 14-year-old victim believed she was pregnant with Burke's child and planned to run away with him just weeks before her prosecutors say Burke killed the young girl. Alongside an elite panel of legal, medical, and psychological experts, Nancy confronts the sheer arrogance surrounding the suspect's entourage and evaluates upcoming defense strategies, ranging from shifting blame onto alternate suspects to a potential split-personality defense.

Four months after the heartbreaking kidnapping of fragile, 84-year-old Nancy Guthrie, Nancy Grace breaks down the latest dramatic developments and critical turning points in the ongoing investigation. Nancy and her panel of experts explore the intense friction between local law enforcement and the FBI, exposing how federal assets and world-class forensic labs were allegedly sidelined during the most crucial early days of the disappearance. Meanwhile Nancy's daughter, Savannah Guthrie launches her own $500,000 private investigation, possibly fueled by reservations about the Pima County Sheriffs handling of the case. The panel analyzes why a sudden lack of follow-up on early ransom notes has led experts to believe the abduction was a personal act of revenge rather than a scheme for money, and reviews how vehicle black boxes, Uber data, and Ring camera caches are being leveraged to track down the perpetrators; new tips claiming the trail leads directly into Sonora, Mexico. Anyone with information on Nancy Guthrie's whereabouts is urged to call the FBI at 1-800-225-5324. There is a $1.2-million reward to help bring Nancy Guthrie home.

Prince Andrew is still facing mounting pressure from the U.S. House Oversight Committee to testify regarding his connections to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. Members of the House Oversight Committee sent a letter to Prince Andrew requesting an interview as part of a broader congressional investigation into Epstein’s network. Andrew’s representatives have not responded to or complied. A few months after Epstein walked free, Prince Andrew corresponds with the convicted sex offender, promising to make plans for a trip to New York, as “it would be good to catch up in person.” Andrew claims his December trip to Epstein’s New York mansion was planned solely to break the news he must cut contact with the financier. However, in a January email to Epstein, Andrew writes, “Keep in close touch, and we’ll play some more soon!!!!” The Met Police investigate claims Prince Andrew tried to involve his tax-funded Met Protection Officer and Queen Elizabeth’s deputy press secretary in a smear campaign against Virginia Giuffre. Metropolitan Police are told to re-investigate Virginia Giuffre’s sex abuse allegations against Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor following removal of his royal titles. But Scotland Yard claims they will not pursue a criminal investigation after Giuffre's initial allegations or her civil case. Prince Andrew may face more than just eviction! Republic, a pressure group that pushes to see the monarchy abolished, instructed lawyers to begin an investigation into the prince. Anonymous plaintiffs file lawsuits against Bank of America and Bank of New York Mellon, claiming the institutions illicitly enabled Epstein’s trafficking activities. Both banks are accused of ignoring the illegal activity, with Bank of America turning a blind eye to Epstein’s use of a victim’s account to pay her and other victims off, and Mellon failed to flag nearly $378 million in victim payments as suspicious.
