  15. yahoo news | Is Jeffrey Epstein hiding in Florida? Truth behind viral video revealed by undefined

    A video filmed on a South Florida highway recently went viral on social media, showing a man in a cap and dark sunglasses driving a convertible. The clip was quickly taken up by users who speculated that the driver might be Jeffrey Epstein, the financier who died in jail in 2019, sparking renewed debate about whether the deceased mogul could somehow still be alive.

    The driver, who identified himself on Twitter as “Palm Beach Pete,” later broke his silence to deny the rumors. He explained that he had been unknowingly recorded while traveling on I‑95, and his phone was bombarded with messages after the clip spread. In a short video message, Pete said, “I’m not Jeffrey Epstein. I’m Palm Beach Pete,” and clarified that he had no connection to the late financier beyond the superficial resemblance that fueled the speculation.

    For context, Jeffrey Epstein was arrested in 2019 on federal charges of running a large‑scale sex‑trafficking operation involving underage girls. He died in his jail cell the same year, with his death officially ruled a suicide by hanging. In January 2026, the U.S. Department of Justice released more than three million documents—photos, videos, and emails—related to the case, naming numerous public figures such as Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kevin Spacey and Naomi Campbell. While these names appear in the material, their inclusion does not imply any involvement in Epstein’s alleged crimes.

  16. DOJ sees no basis for civil rights investigation following ICE shooting in Minneapolis, official says – The Hill

    DOJ sees no basis for civil rights investigation following ICE shooting in Minneapolis, official says

    By Max Rego – 01/13/26 10:52 PM ET

    The Department of Justice (DOJ) is reportedly not investigating the fatal shooting of Renee Good by a federal immigration officer as a civil rights case.

    “There is currently no basis for a criminal civil rights investigation,” Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche told CNN Tuesday. The Hill has reached out to the DOJ for comment.

    Good, 37, was shot and killed last Wednesday by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Officer Jonathan Ross in Minneapolis. The shooting sparked protests against the Trump administration’s widespread immigration crackdown. 

    The administration has defended Ross, arguing he acted in self-defense and Good obstructed federal law enforcement operations and weaponized her vehicle against officers in an act of “domestic terrorism.”

    Federal investigators have also restricted local authorities’ access to materials and evidence, over the objections of city and state officials. Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA) Superintendent Drew Evans wrote last Thursday that his agency has “reluctantly withdrawn” from the investigation after the FBI informed it of the decision.
