After an offseason holdout, trade-baiting, a few missed practices and three interceptions in the Seattle Seahawks' 2-2 start, Earl Thomas appears to be done for the season after he broke his leg Sunday in a win over the Arizona Cardinals.

Reactions from current and former NFL players after the injury quickly became a referendum on long-term contracts, the goals of holding out and Thomas' legacy as a feared member of one of the league's best-ever defensive units.

Praying for my brother @Earl_Thomas. Most will never know the hard work and sacrifice daily that goes into playing this game. He will bounce back better than ever that's who he i.

You will receive a ‘Presidential Alert’ text on Wednesday during national test

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.provider_name

You'll soon be getting a message on your phone from the President of the United States - whether you are a supporter or not.

It's not a political message, but an emergency test message sent from President Donald Trump as part of the Federal Emergency Management Agency's system to warn the public in cases of national emergencies.

A majority of cell phone users will receive an alert on Wednesday, October 3, with the header "Presidential Alert" and the message, "THIS IS A TEST of the National Wireless Emergency Alert System. No action is needed." The alert was initially scheduled to occur Thursday, September 20, but FEMA spokesman Mark Peterson tells CNN the test has been postponed, and October 3 was the alternate date for the test.

WEA was technically launched in April of 2012, but this will be the first time FEMA has tested the system on the presidential level in hopes to work out the kinks, the agency said in a press release this week.

The presidential alert is one of three kinds of alerts in the FEMA's WEA system, which also notifies the public about extreme weather or missing children, also known as AMBER alerts.

You can expect to see the alert pop up on your phone at 2:18 p.m. ET so long as you have your phone turned on, are within range of a cell tower, and if your wireless provider is part of the WEA system.

The WEA test will be broadcast over the course of about 30 minutes and sound the same as an AMBER Alert. Users can't opt out of the presidential alert test, according to FEMA.

More than 100 carriers, including the largest carriers (Verizon, AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile), will participate in the emergency alert test, FEMA said.

FEMA will also run a test of its Emergency Alert System (EAS) for radio and television broadcasters the same day, beginning two minutes after the WEA test.

The agency is required by law to conduct a nationwide test of its public alert systems no less than once every three years.

FEMA is also tasked with ensuring that the President can alert the public under all conditions in cases of national emergencies, including natural disasters and terrorist threats.

Cory Booker believes that Kavanaugh should be dismissed and a new Supreme Court Justice should be nominated

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Democratic Sen. Cory Booker, amid the ongoing FBI probe into sexual assault allegations against Brett Kavanaugh, suggested the Senate needs to "move on" to another Supreme Court nominee whether Kavanaugh is innocent or guilty.

Booker, D-N.J., days earlier backed the FBI's re-opened supplemental background investigation into Kavanaugh. But amid speculation that the probe could come to an end any day now, Booker indicated Tuesday that it's too late for Kavanaugh. He said his "credibility" has already been challenged and his "temperament" revealed at last week's heated hearing with him and accuser Christine Blasey Ford.

"Ultimately-not whether he innocent or guilty, this is not a trial-have enough questions have been raised that we should not move on to another candidate?" Booker, a potential 2020 presidential candidate, said on Capitol Hill Tuesday. "Move on to another candidate."

Republicans seized on the remarks, with GOP Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel tweeting that it shows "Senate Democrats finally admit that they don't even care about getting to the truth."

Booker's comments come as new allegations surface against Kavanaugh, but also as questions are being raised about those allegations already made.

Ford, who testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee last week, alleged that Kavanaugh, while at a high school party 36 years ago, pinned her down and tried to remove her clothing. Another, Deborah Ramirez, claimed that during their freshman year at Yale University, Kavanaugh exposed himself to her at a dorm party. And Julie Swetnick, who is represented by Stormy Daniels' attorney Michael Avenatti, claimed that Kavanaugh drugged the "punch" at parties, and participated in "gang" and "train" rapes while in high school.

Swetnick has since walked back some elements of her account, and the names of witnesses she provided have not at this point supported her story. Kavanaugh has vehemently denied the allegations.

President Trump, meanwhile, has ramped up his criticism of Democrats' handling of the confirmation process. At a rally in Mississippi on Tuesday evening, he accused Democrats of only knowing how to "obstruct, resist, demolish, destroy and delay" and claimed they'd been "trying to destroy Judge Kavanaugh" since the beginning.

"Because they know Judge Kavanaugh will follow the Constitution as written," he said.

But Booker on Tuesday slammed the nominee, noting that Kavanaugh's "credibility has been challenged by intimates, by people who knew the candidate well as a classmate."

Amid the FBI probe, Democrats have also focused on Kavanaugh's alleged aggressive behavior while drinking in high school and in college. Kavanaugh has denied being aggressive, though he has admitted to drinking beer while in high school and college.

Booker opposed his nomination before any of the accusations surfaced. In July, at a press conference, Booker said supporting Kavanaugh would be "evil."

"In a moral moment, there is no bystanders," he said this summer. "You are either complicit in the evil, you are either contributing to the wrong, or you are fighting against it."

Elon Musk agreed Saturday to step down as chairman of Tesla and pay a $20 million fine in a deal to settle charges brought this week by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Elon Musk agreed Saturday to step down as chairman of Tesla and pay a $20 million fine in a deal to settle charges brought this week by the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Under the settlement, which requires court approval, Musk will be allowed to stay as CEO but must leave his role as chairman of the board within 45 days. He cannot seek reelection for three years, according to court filings.

He accepted the deal with the SEC "without admitting or denying the allegations of the complaint," according to a court document.

Separately, Tesla agreed Saturday to pay $20 million to settle claims it failed to adequately police Musk's tweet.

"The $40 million in penalties will be distributed to harmed investors under a court-approved process," the SEC said in a press release.

The company also agreed to appoint two new independent directors to its board and establish a board committee to oversee Musk's communications.

Tesla declined to comment. A spokesperson confirmed Musk will be permitted to remain a member of the board.

The announcement from the SEC comes two days after the agency filed a lawsuit against Musk, claiming he misled investors. The suit centers on tweets Musk sent on August 7 in which he said he had secured funding to take Tesla private at $420 a share, causing the company's stock to soar. He had not secured the funding, the SEC said.

The lawsuit sought to ban Musk from serving as an officer or director of any publicly traded company.

Musk called the SEC's suit "unjustified."

"I have always taken action in the best interests of truth, transparency and investors," he said. "Integrity is the most important value in my life and the facts will show I never compromised this in any way."

CNBC, citing unnamed sources, reported that the agency filed the suit on Thursday after Musk refused an earlier settlement offer. Under that deal, Musk would have had to pay a "nominal fine" and leave his role as chairman for two years. He chose not to accept the terms because "because he felt that by settling he would not be truthful to himself," according to the outlet.

A representative for Musk did not immediately reply to CNN's request for comment Saturday.

Jay Dubow, a partner at Pepper Hamilton and a veteran of the SEC's enforcement division, said it was "unusual" that the SEC agreed to let Musk stay on as chief executive but exit the chairman role.

It's surprising considering "the conduct at issue, if [the SEC] really thought it was egregious," Dubow said. "The CEO is certainly more involved than the chairman in day-to-day operations."

He suggested the SEC may have determined that removing Musk as CEO would cause more harm to Tesla's share price, and thus harm investors.

Barclays analyst Brian Johnson estimated in a recent note that Tesla's stock has a $130 "Musk premium," which could disappear if he leaves.

Still unclear is whether or not the Department of Justice will file criminal charges against Musk.

Tesla confirmed earlier this month that the DOJ was investigating whether Musk's comments about taking his company private constituted criminal activity.

Dubow, the former SEC official, said he suspects nothing will come of it.

"My guess is that it's still possible the DOJ will pursue something, but...it's more likely than not that the DOJ chooses not to pursue this," he said.

The settlement has likely assuaged the SEC, mitigating the DOJ's incentive to act.

A 7 year old boy fell into a trailer filled with harvested corn kernels while playing on his family's farm.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
A Pennsylvania boy is in critical condition on Wednesday after he fell into a full grain trailer over the weekend.

Wellington Shaffer, 7, was playing on his family's farm in central Pennsylvania on Saturday when he fell into a trailer filled with harvested corn kernels, authorities said.

Rescuers had to open the trailer's bottom to remove the boy, Hickory Corner Fire Company Chief Doug Wetzel told reporters. He did not say how long the boy may have been trapped.

WNEP

Wellington was airlifted to the Geisinger Medical Center in neighboring Montour County and was in listed critical condition as of early Wednesday, according to his family. Wellington celebrated his 7th birthday last Thursday.

Friends and neighbors gathered for a vigil near the family's farm in Dalmatia, about 34 miles north of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, on Monday, where they burned candles and prayed for a full recovery.

"It just hit me in the pit of my stomach," Nolan Masser, a close friend of the family, told Scranton ABC affiliate WNEP. "We're praying for a complete recovery for him, and we think that God will provide that."

The tragedy has made the small community even closer, Masser said, adding that local farmers are planning to harvest the family's crops.

"A group of farmers got together," he said, "so that's one less load that they'll have to bear.

"No one would want to go through what the Shaffer family is going through right now," Masser added.

WNEP

Wellington is a first grader at Northumberland Christian School, where some students showed support this week by wearing orange, his favorite color.

"Lots of tears, lots of hugs. They're precious, and they're going through a really hard time," Pastor John Rees, the school's principal, told WNEP. "He is just the sweetest little guy. You know the kind of guy that will just come up and give you a hug."

The Shaffers did not share details about the nature of the boy's injuries, but it expects a "long road of recovery ahead," according to a GoFundMe campaign set up on the family's behalf.

At a Campaign speaking President Trump mocks A woman who accused Supreme court nominee Brett Kavanaugh

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
SOUTHAVEN, Miss. - President Donald Trump ignited a crowd at a campaign rally in Mississippi on Tuesday by mocking a woman who has claimed she was sexually assaulted by Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh decades ago.

The audience laughed as Trump ran through a list of what he described as holes in Christine Blasey Ford's testimony before the Senate Judiciary Committee. She testified that Kavanaugh pinned her on a bed, tried to take off her clothes and covered her mouth in the early 1980s, when the two were teenagers. Kavanaugh has denied Ford's allegations.

"How did you get home? 'I don't remember,'" Trump said at the rally in Southaven. "How did you get there? 'I don't remember.' Where is the place? 'I don't remember.' How many years ago was it? 'I don't know. I don't know. I don't know.'"

Imitating Ford, he added, "But I had one beer - that's the only thing I remember."

It marked the sharpest criticism by Trump of Ford since she came forward publicly with the allegation last month. He had previously called Ford a "very credible witness."

Ford's lawyer Michael Bromwich called Trump's attack "vicious, vile and soulless."

"Is it any wonder that she was terrified to come forward, and that other sexual assault survivors are as well?" Bromwich tweeted. "She is a remarkable profile in courage. He is a profile in cowardice."

The president was in Mississippi on Tuesday looking to use his influence to sway the outcome of a low-profile election that could tip the balance of the Senate.

As Republicans fight headwinds ahead of the Nov. 6 midterm election, Trump sought to rally his supporters behind GOP Sen. Cindy Hyde-Smith, who was appointed to fill the seat of Republican Thad Cochran, who retired in April. She faces three candidates - Republican Chris McDaniel and Democrats Mike Espy and Tobey Bernard Bartee - in next month's special election for the remainder of the two-year term.

"She's always had my back," Trump said. "She's always had your back. And a vote for Cindy is a vote for me."

But Trump spent much of the rally lamenting the treatment of Kavanaugh by Democrats, whose attacks, he said, had taken their toll on the judge's family.

"A man's life is in tatters," he said. Of Democrats, he added, "These are really evil people."

He even raised questions about the drinking habits of Vermont Sen. Patrick Leahy in an attempt to turn the tables on Democrats who have gone after Kavanaugh's beer drinking. Trump told the crowd they should do an online search for "Patrick Leahy slash drink." Leahy's office didn't immediately return a message seeking comment Tuesday.

Some Republicans and White House allies have suggested the allegations against Kavanaugh can be potent political fodder in the run-up to Nov. 6, animating GOP voters who have so far lacked the same motivation to head to the polls as their Democratic counterparts.

Republican officials and the White House expect Hyde-Smith's race to go to a runoff under the state's jungle election rules that force a showdown between the top two finishers if no candidate wins at least 50 percent of the vote on Election Day. With Republicans defending majorities in the House and Senate next month, officials cast Trump's visit as an attempt to get ahead of a potentially perilous situation.

Officials said Trump is seeking to boost Hyde-Smith as close as possible to the 50 percent threshold and lend momentum for a possible runoff. Depending on how Republicans perform on Nov. 6, the eyes of the nation could fall on a Nov. 27 Mississippi runoff in what could become an expensive and high-profile race to determine control of the Senate.

"Your vote in this election will decide which party controls the United States Senate," Trump said.

A vocal minority of the crowd Tuesday backed the other conservative in the race, McDaniel, a state senator, and booed Hyde-Smith when Trump introduced her. They launched into occasional chants of "We want Chris."

Earlier Tuesday, Trump told electrical contractors gathered in Philadelphia that his economic policies would translate into more jobs for their ranks as he highlighted a new trade deal among the U.S., Mexico and Canada.

"We're in the midst of a manufacturing renaissance - something which nobody thought you'd hear," Trump said in a speech to the National Electrical Contractors Association Convention a day after celebrating the new North American trade deal.

In fact, North America already is a manufacturing powerhouse. The United States ranks No. 2 in the world behind China in manufacturing output. Mexico ranks 11th and Canada 13th, according to United Nations numbers pulled together by the Brookings Institution.

Trump calls the new trade agreement USMCA, for U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement. "Like YMCA or U.S. Marine Corps with an A at the end," he explained.

He said he doesn't want to use the previous name, NAFTA, the North American Free Trade Agreement, which he contends cost American jobs and railed against during his 2016 presidential campaign. The new trade deal still must be approved by Congress.

"We are finally rebuilding our country, and we are doing it with American aluminum, American steel and with our great electrical contractors," he said.

Trump said the strong economy "means more jobs for our great electrical contractors."

Before departing the White House, Trump tweeted, "THE ONLY REASON TO VOTE FOR A DEMOCRAT IS IF YOU'RE TIRED OF WINNING!"

Dutch Teen Goes Missing On Her Way To Work. Two Decades Later, Her Stepbrother Confesses

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Nicole Van der Kurk left for work one day, only never to return home. Although there was an investigation into her disappearance, the case was an unsolved mystery. Could you imagine the agony her family must have felt not knowing what happened to her?

It took two decades for the truth to finally come out. You won't believe what her stepbrother had to say about that eerie day so many years ago. Needless to say that her family was shocked when he confessed this on social media!

Dutch Life

Nicole van den Hurk was born in a small German town called Erkelenz. She lived there as an infant with her mother and stepfather, Angelika Tegtmeier and Ad van den Hurk. Nicole's biological father was married to someone else when she was born.

Her parents moved her and her stepbrother, Andy, to the Netherlands by the time she turned three. Nicole's mother was battling mental issues and she often spent hours alone in her bedroom.

Nicole didn't have it easy. Click 'Next.'

Growing Up

Nicole knew her family life was somewhat unstable, but she still loved her parents. As she grew older, she started to notice Angelika and Ad were slowly growing apart. One day, Ad sat Nicole and Andy down to break some news to them.

He and their mother were getting a divorce. Nicole was just eight-years-old at the time, but she understood the gravity of the situation. Neither of them knew if this meant they were not going to see each other again.

A big dilemma

There were more fights than kisses between Ad and his wife, and they often went for days without talking to each other. He and their mother were getting a divorce.

Things weren't working out and just getting worse with time. Everything was up in the air, and they were both nervous about the full outcome.

Click "next to find out about Ad's intentions.

A New Family

Right before the divorce was finalized, Ad surprised Nicole with his next move. He told her he was going to ask for full custody of her and have her live with him until she turned 18-years old. Her mother was not stable enough to keep a home or take care of a child.

Legally, he was her stepfather, but to Ad she was just his daughter. They had a stable relationship that had been developed after many years.

Click "next " for more on the court's judgment.

Getting her wishes

Nicole was so happy to hear this. She was worried she was going to be alone with a woman who could barely function on her own. When the judge granted the custody, her concerns were thrown by the wayside.

She was not going to be separated from the only family she had known all her life. Angelika was upset, but she knew it was for the best. She had to tackle her demons and figure out where her life was headed.

Things drastically changed after this. Click "Next."

Chaotic Days

Ad found a new house and moved his children in with him. It was still in the same city as they grew up in. Ad was in the music industry and was gone a lot of the time. It was tough for him to juggle home and work life.

So, he reached out to his mother for help. She lived minutes away, and the kids loved her. At times, she stayed at Ad's house, and sometimes she watched them at her flat.

Living in the same city

They had a lot of school friends who they were going to miss if they moved further away. He knew he needed help when it came to raising Nicole and Andy.

The mother had no problem watching them after school and on the weekends. Ad felt bad that he wasn't there often, but he had to continue on with his career.

New Times

After a few months, Ad found a woman who he wanted to marry. Her name was Jolanda, and they met through mutual friends. Ad brought her home to meet Nicole and Andy. She got along well with them, and before they knew it she had moved in and married their father.

Jolanda was also in the music industry and traveled for work a lot. Both parents were never at home to look after the children who needed a lot of attention.

It was a tragic end to Angelika. Click "next."

Dark Times

Somehow, Angelika caught wind that Ad had remarried, and she was devastated. Getting divorced was not her idea, and she was still in love with the man. She was still trying to get help for her health issues, but things were not going well.

She couldn't handle the news, and this was just another straw on the camel's back. She committed suicide weeks later in her home. This was unexpected, but the family supported Nicole during the difficult period.

This was a blow to Nicole and her relatives. Click 'Next.'

Picking up the Pieces

Of course, Nicole was sad that her mother was now gone. Even though she never had a close relationship with Angelika, she was still her mom. Ad made sure she was surrounded by family while she grieved.

Nicole grew into a 15-year-old girl and had recently found a job at a local bakery that employed her after school. She usually rode her bike to and from the bakery. The ride wasn't far at all from her home.

Getting stronger along the way

She soon got back to everyday life and pressed on. Nicole's father and grandmother were impressed at how well she took everything. When things got too heavy at home, she often went to the small shop to work.

She loved her new job and had found a new purpose there. She usually rode her bike to and from the bakery.

Back and Forth

Nicole had a good group of friends she leaned on. They had all grown up together and spent a good amount of time hanging out and horsing around. If you didn't find her at work or at school, she was with one of them.

Since Ad was away, Nicole's grandmother allowed Nicole and Andy to do almost anything they wanted. She was always informed of their whereabouts. It was the right thing to do to avoid worrying her.

Unlimited freedom at home

Since Ad was away, Nicole's grandmother allowed Nicole and Andy to do almost anything they wanted. Recently, Nicole and her stepbrother had been exclusively living with their grandmother.

Since their father and his wife were gone for quite some time, it made sense that they stayed at her house. She wasn't strict in the least bit and provided them with a stable upbringing.

The store owner went out to see if he could see Nicole coming. He didn't see her, so he tried calling her house. There was no one at Ad's home, so there was only one thing left to do, calling the police.

The police came and asked passersby if they saw anyone who resembled Nicole. No one seemed to see anything.

No Trace

They spent hours looking for Nicole, but her body didn't turn up. The police came to the conclusion that she wasn't in the river. The river water was dark and cloudy, and they made sure every inch had been explored.

Nicole has to be out there somewhere. Click 'Next.'

More Findings

Ad rushed home to be with his family. He couldn't believe that Nicole was missing. It wasn't like her to just run away, and he feared for the worst. One morning, he received a call from the police stating they had found a canvas bag.

She had been in her possession on the day she left for work. The bag was next to a canal and they planned to search the area the following day.

New Ideas

The police began searching all over the area where the bag was found. Police asked Ad to come to police headquarters to have a talk. When he sat down, they asked him if Nicole ever wanted to run away from home.

Ad absolutely knew that Nicole could never do that. The authorities thought that Nicole maybe reached out to extended family members in Germany and went there to live. It was a crazy idea that Ad could never agree to.

Ad thinks the investigation is going in circles. Click 'Next' to see how it all plays out.

The Investigation Continues

Police kept on with the investigation. Throughout the case, the authorities had also been receiving tips and put out a monetary award for a tip that led to her whereabouts. Ad and Nicole's grandmother were interviewed numerous times.

Despite receiving the leads, they were left with nothing at the end of the day. Ad was getting more upset by the day, he felt the police weren't moving quick enough to find her.

Leaving no stone unturned

They were interviewing everyone who knew Nicole. This included her boyfriend, friends, and strangers. They were doing all that they could to get Nicole home safely. Ad and Nicole's grandmother were interviewed numerous times to see if they knew more than they let on.

Everything was recorded and written down in detail. Thousands of man-hours were spent on trying to find where the teen went.

Use of a Psychic

Ad was upset that Nicole still hadn't been found yet. With the help of his wife, they hired a psychic who was known in the area to find out any additional clues that had been overlooked.

When they met with her, she told them to focus on two specific canals in the river. She had a feeling her body was going to be found there. It was a clue that they took seriously and decided to pursue it.

The police get a clue

Ad let the police know what he had just been told. They had nothing to lose and decided to use K-9 dogs to check the area for Nicole's body. Nothing was found in the area. The dogs did not get one hit and were back to square one.

It seemed like they were never going to find where the lost teen was. They looked at every possible area over and over again and came up empty-handed.

What a roller coaster ride. Click 'Next.' Everyone is in for a huge and stunning surprise.

Finally Found

It had now been almost two months since Nicole's disappearance. A hiker in some woods nearby the van den Hurk house stumbled upon something odd. From a distance, he didn't know what he was looking at.

As he got closer to the object, he soon realized it was a dead body. The police were immediately called, and they came out within minutes. After forensic and DNA testing was complete, the police confirmed it was the body of Nicole.

Cause of death

She had been there for quite some time and met a very violent end. They didn't have a cause of death, but there was speculation that she was murdered by knife stabbing. Nicole's family were left speechless by the find.

They still held on to hope that she was going to be found alive despite several days that went after her missing. When they heard she had been murdered, it was a punch to the gut they weren't expecting.

Finding the Suspect

The police hoped they could find some sort of DNA evidence or clue that could lead them to the right person. They held onto the body for a couple of days before turning Nicole over to her family. Ad had arranged to have her funeral that weekend.

Unfortunately, the police didn't acquire any leads when Nicole's family was found. While they did interview Ad and his mother earlier, they wanted to delve a little deeper for answers.

Mourning the young girl

Thousands of people came to grieve alongside the van den Hurks. The Dutch community came together to pay respects to a girl who was taken from the world too soon.

Unfortunately, the police didn't acquire any leads when Nicole's family was found. They didn't want to give up on the case and soon had their sights set on the family.

Looking in the Family

The police were now looking at Ad, Andy, and the grandmother. Andy was five years older than Nicole and wasn't a part of the investigation until now. When Nicole disappeared, he had moved back home to be with his father.

Six months after Nicole's funeral, Ad and Andy were arrested for possible involvement in her murder. Ad and Andy were kept in the interview room for hours. The police had no evidence to keep them in custody, so they were let go.

You are not going to believe what happens now. Click 'Next.'

Going Cold

After Ad and Andy were let go, they headed back to their home. Authorities continued working for months on the murder until they had nothing to work with. A family friend had been arrested for drug trafficking. It appeared she had a lot that she knew.

She then mentioned that the people she worked for were also involved in Nicole's abduction and murder. They believed she was just hoping to strike a deal with law enforcement to give her little prison time.

This is awful. Click 'Next' to find out if this case ever gets solved.

Disappointing times ahead

The case was never declared cold, but they scaled back immensely from any investigative efforts. They had a lead that was too hard for Ad to hear. A family friend who had been arrested for drug trafficking was an unreliable source of information.

Even though she then mentioned that the people she worked for were also involved in Nicole's abduction and murder. But, it was a false lead.

Continue clicking "next" to find out how disappointing the investigation had gone.

Nowhere to Turn

After the false confession, there was nowhere left for the investigators to turn. They had no new suspects, and tips had now stopped coming in. The police reached out to the family to let them know they weren't closing the case.

But, there was now only going to be one detective assigned to the case since it had been so long since Nicole disappeared. The years passed without any new information. Before Ad knew it, 15 years had now come and gone.

An unexpected twist is up ahead. Click 'Next.'

Ad was floored

Ad was floored to see that years were going by without finding the murderer. He was hoping the police were not going to stop their efforts until they found Nicole's killer.

There was nothing he could do now. He did everything he could and prayed someone who saw something was going to call and get the investigation going again.

Life goes on. Click "next" to find out.

Moving Along

It was now 2011, and life must go on. Ad continued to work in the music industry and still lived in the Netherlands. Andy had moved to England to start a new life. Andy and Ad were still in close contact and often talked to each other.

Ad soon became resigned to the fact that he just had to let it go. Andy, however, couldn't drop the fact that the murderer was still out there. He was determined to do something.

Planning for their next steps

Andy's next move made jaws drop. Click 'Next.'

He Did It

Andy took to social media and wrote a post that shocked everyone. He told his family and friends that he was the one who killed Nicole. Andy walked into the nearest British police station and made the confession again, this time in front of the authorities.

He was quickly arrested and was extradited to the Netherlands to stand trial there. When Andy arrived back in the Netherlands, he didn't talk to his father or anyone else and was kept in jail.

Lack of Evidence

Andy was kept in jail for less than a week while the police tried to figure things out. They soon realize they couldn't keep him imprisoned any longer as they didn't have any concrete evidence against him. All they had was his social media post which didn't amount to much in court.

Method to His Madness

Shortly after his release, Andy shocked the world one more time. He said he did not kill Nicole. He confessed to the crime to bring attention to it once again. He thought that his father, Ad, was responsible for her death. Andy said he raped her, and she was pregnant with his child.

His father killed her so that secret could not come out. It was a shocking revelation that stunned the public. Ad couldn't understand what his son was up to.

The Police took Action

Andy wanted the police to start investigating him again. After Ad heard this sensational bit of news, he denied everything immediately. There was no possibility he could ever do that to his daughter. He was left speechless that his son was betraying him like that.

Andy told the media that he hoped that this revelation could cause Nicole's body to be exhumed. Police needed to see if they could extract any foreign DNA from her body that wasn't seen the first time.

What a declaration. Andy's confession did bring about change. Click 'Next.'

Exhuming the Body

The police were forced into a corner. They realized that they hadn't done proper investigations in the first place. They had to exhume the body to see if Andy's statement rings true. Also, if there was any DNA on her body, they hoped there was enough there to come up with a suspect.

Police hired crews to take Nicole's body to the Netherlands Forensic Institute. There wanted to leave no stone unturned this time around.

A Nervous Wait

The examination was going to take several days as they wanted to make sure a thorough investigation was done. In September 2011, the new examination began. Ad knew they were not going to find any DNA related to him on her body, but he hoped something was going to be discovered.

Ad hadn't spoken to Andy since he made the wild accusation. He felt double-crossed by his own son and didn't know if he could ever recover from it.

DNA Found

They had also recently increased the reward money for finding the murderer. Both of these helped put the fire underneath this once stale cold case.

Jos de G.

Detectives arrested a man named Jos de G. His DNA was found on Nicole's body, and they needed to know why. The 46-year old man was no stranger to being arrested and the criminal system. He had been convicted of raping three women on three separate occasions.

When they interview Jos, he had mentioned that he had left his house the same day Nicole had disappeared. He had an explosive argument with his girlfriend and took a walk.

A stint in prison

He was imprisoned for three years for one of the convictions and was ordered to get treatment for his past. When they interview Jos, he had mentioned that he had left his house the same day Nicole had disappeared.

He had an explosive argument with his girlfriend and needed to get away to clear his head. His trial was scheduled to begin in the winter of 2015.

This is the trial that everyone has been waiting for. Click 'Next.'

Opening Statements

Jos' lawyer said that while DNA was found on Nicole's body, there was more DNA from others that were on her as well. The lawyer even stated that some of the DNA came from her stepbrother and boyfriend.

The defense claimed Jos had known her, and they engaged in consensual sex shortly before her death. However, the prosecution differed with that argument. They thought Nicole was at the wrong place at the wrong time and met an enraged Jos.

Strong arguments in court

Of course, the prosecution had their own theory as to what happened. They were adamant that Nicole did not know Jos. When they had crossed paths, he was already enraged by his fight with his girlfriend and took his anger out on the innocent girl.

She paid for her random error with her life. Jos' lawyer tried to discredit the DNA findings.

New Testing

The defense asked the courts to take another look at the DNA samples. If their findings came from three different people, how could they determine Jos' guilt? The court listened and asked for the DNA to be re-analyzed. The testing took a couple of weeks before they came back with concrete evidence.

A spokesperson from the health institute came back and said it was millions of times more likely for the DNA found to come from Jos.

What happened to the murder charge? Click "next" for an answer to this question.

Dropping the Murder Charge

When the prosecution heard this, they asked the court to imprison Jos for at least 14 years. There was no way Nicole was going to have a casual relationship with a man more than three times her age. Before the trial came to a close, Jos' charges were dropped from murder to manslaughter and rape.

In November 2016, the trial wrapped up, and the verdict was read for all to hear. The public anxiously waited to hear the sentencing.

It all boils down to this moment. Click 'Next.'

The Verdict

Jos was found guilty of rape, but he was found not guilty of the manslaughter charge. He was given a five-year prison sentence. It was a lesser charge and the judge had no option, but to give a more lenient sentence.

He was determined to be legally insane at the time of the murder. The public was not happy with what Jos had managed to get after being accused of murder. There was nothing that could be done as justice had taken its course.

Ad and Andy were heartbroken after hearing the news. Click "next."

The court's considerations

The court gave him this sentence after they weighed his mental capabilities. He was determined to be legally insane at the time of the murder. This helped Jos' case immensely.

Also, the fact that there were three different DNA remains found on Nicole's body cast a shroud of uncertainty. While Jos was in jail, he wasn't punished enough.

Click "next" to find out how Ad and Andy felt.

Tough decision to accept

When Ad heard the news, he was shattered. This was not what he wanted in the least bit. He had waited for years to get justice for his beloved daughter, but he felt five years wasn't enough. Andy didn't know what to believe.

He always thought his father had a hand in the murder. Even the five years that the accused received was a joke. There are two sides to every story, and we may never know the full story.

My focus was just on that knife': Chicago police officer who killed 17-year-old Laquan McDonald testifies in own defense

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
The Chicago Police officer who shot and killed 17-year-old Laquan McDonald in 2014 became emotional when he took the stand in his own defense Tuesday, wiping away tears as he recalled details from the fatal shooting.

Jason Van Dyke, 40, testified about the crucial moments of the Oct. 20, 2014, encounter with McDonald, telling defense attorney Randy Rueckert that he believed the 17-year-old was coming towards him with a knife in his hand.

"We never lost eye contact. His eyes were bugging out of his face," Van Dyke said. "His face was expressionless. He turned his torso towards me."

Van Dyke said he told McDonald to drop the knife, but "he never dropped it."

Antonio Perez/Chicago Tribune/AP

At times, Van Dyke appeared nervous, struggling to answer prosecutor's questions and stumbling over his answers during cross-examination

When prosecutor Jody Gleason asked him why he continued to fire his weapon even after McDonald collapsed to the ground, Van Dyke testified, "My focus was just on that knife, and I just wanted him to get rid of that knife."

Police dash-cam video shows Van Dyke opening fire six seconds after exiting his police vehicle, shooting McDonald 16 times, as McDonald appears to be walking away from the officer. The video revealed that McDonald was was armed with a three-inch knife but was not moving toward the responding officers when he was shot.

Officers were responding to a call about someone with a knife trying to break into vehicles.

Van Dyke testified Tuesday that he thought McDonald was still moving when he fell to the ground.

ABC News

When Gleason played the dashcam video, asking where exactly the teen appears to be moving, Van Dyke replied, "To me, it seemed like he was getting back up."

"From that video it may not show it, he said. "I was coming from a different angle."

Throughout the trial, defense attorneys have painted McDonald as a teen with a troubled and violent past, and argued he lunged at Van Dyke and that the officer acted in self-defense.

"He could've dropped the knife and ended it all," Van Dyke said on the stand.

Gleason later used Van Dyke's phrase against him, asking the officer, "You could've ended it the minute he hit the ground, correct?"

Autopsy reports show McDonald was high on PCP the night he was killed, but prosecutors have argued McDonald never posed a lethal threat.

Prosecutors say the shooting was unjustified, emphasizing the fact that at least seven other officers were on the scene that night, and none of them fired their weapons.

WLS

The release of the dashcam footage in November 2015 to the public caused nationwide protests. Prosecutors charged Van Dyke with murder the same day the video was released.

Mayor Rahm Emanuel and city attorneys fought to keep the video from becoming public until a judge ordered it be released. It led to a shake-up in Chicago leadership, including the resignation of then-Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy, as well as then-Cook County Prosecutor Anita Alvarez being voted out of office. Emanuel, who critics accused of a cover-up, announced a day before the trial began that he would not seek re-election in February.

Van Dyke has pleaded not guilty to the murder charges. If convicted, he could face life in prison.

The jury of eight women and four men, includes seven white jurors, one black juror, three Hispanic and one Asian.

Four US Navy members accused of having group sex with an underage girl.  They have Preliminary court in two weeks to decide whether or not they will face a Court-fMartial.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Four U.S. Navy sailors have been accused of allegedly engaging in group sex with an underage girl on a naval base in Washington state and recording and photographing the incident, according to Navy charge sheets. The sailors will face a preliminary court hearing in two weeks that will determine whether they should face a court-martial.

The four sailors alleged to be involved, who weren't identified, are all submariners attached to the U.S. Navy's submarine fleet based at Naval Base Kitsap-Bangor in Washington.

Two sailors are attached to the USS Nebraska, a third sailor is attached to the USS Henry M. Jackson and the fourth sailor, who previously served on the same submarine, has been transferred to Naval Submarine Support Center (NSSC), Bangor. The four sailors, all of whom are Chief Petty Officers Third Class, are currently at Bangor awaiting the start of the court hearing known as an Article 32.

According to the charge sheets, they are accused of allegedly "engaging in group sex with an underage female," whom they did not know, in a barracks on the base on September 19, 2017. They are alleged to have recorded the encounter using "photography and video equipment".

Because the videos and stills recorded a sexual act with a minor, two of the sailors face charges for production of child pornography.

"There is no allegation of rape or the use of force in the incident," said Cmdr. Corey Baker, a spokesman for Submarine Force U.S. Pacific Fleet.

The Naval Criminal Investigative Service(NCIS) began investigating the allegations after an anonymous tip to base authorities on September 26, 2017, said Barker.

"The Navy takes allegations of misconduct seriously and, upon learning of this, immediately initiated a criminal investigation into the matter," he added.

The Navy charge sheets describe the girl as "a child who had attained the age of 12 years, but had not attained the age of 16 years."

The exact details of how the underage girl got onto the base are still being investigated.

Article 32 hearings are preliminary court hearings where prosecutors present evidence to a presiding officer to determine if there is enough evidence for the case to proceed to a court-martial.

In a true display of human kindness, a New Orleans Saints fan helped a disabled New York Giants fan stand for the national anthem before Sunday night's football game.

Geordie Brower took a trip to New York over the weekend to visit his mother, Lauren, and see his hometown team battle the Giants at Metlife Stadium in New Jersey, NOLA.com reported.

As the anthem began, Brower noticed that the person in front of him, a fan from the opposing team, needed help standing. Without thinking, Brower leaned forward to help the man up.
ERIC REID, WHO SUPPORTED COLIN KAEPERNICK IN PROTESTS DURING NATIONAL ANTHEM, SIGNS WITH PANTHERS
"As it happened, I honestly didn't think anything of it. He needed help standing, and I had the ability," he told the news agency.

"I hope anyone would do that to me. I'd even do it for a Falcons fan," he added jokingly.

As of Tuesday evening, the photo had been shared more than 2,700 times and had garnered no fewer than 10,000 likes on Twitter.

Brower said he was surprised at how viral the photo had become, since helping someone in need seemed like the ultimate no-brainer. The other man in the photo hasn't been identified.

The Saints went on to defeat the Giants 33-18.

The touching moment comes as the NFL continues to grapple with fallout from some players' decision to kneel during the anthem as a protest against racial injustice and police violence.

A volcano erupted last Wednesday on the same Indonesian island the got hit by an earthquake and tsunami. Ash shot out for more than 6,000 meters.

Interested in Volcanoes?

Add Volcanoes as an interest to stay up to date on the latest Volcanoes news, video, and analysis from ABC News.

A volcano erupted Wednesday on the same central Indonesian island struck last week by a powerful earthquake and tsunami, and authorities warned planes about volcanic ash in the air.

Mount Soputan on Sulawesi island spewed a massive column of ash more than 6,000 meters (19,700 feet) into the sky. No evacuations were immediately ordered.

A government volcanologist said it's possible the eruption was accelerated by the magnitude 7.5 earthquake that struck on Friday.

"It could be that this earthquake triggered the eruption, but we have seen an increase in volcanic activity since July and this began surging on Monday. Yet we can't say there a direct link, as the mountain is quite far away," Kasbani, the head of Indonesia's Volcanology and Geology Disaster Mitigation Agency, said on local television.

Kasbani, who uses one name, said planes have been warned to avoid the area.

Nazli Ismail, a geophysicist at the University of Syiah Kuala in Banda Aceh on Sumatra island stressed there was no concrete evidence to show the two incidents are linked.

"People talk about the butterfly effect. The concept is that when a butterfly flaps its wings, it can cause a catastrophe," he said. "So it is possible for the earthquake to trigger the volcano eruption, but it's not conclusive. This needs to be further investigated."

Danny Hillman Natawidjaja, a geologist with Indonesia's Institute of Science, echoed the views, saying there was not enough data to make a link.

"In principle, the seismic waves from the earthquake could increase pressure in the volcano's magma chamber and could cause an eruption. We don't know for sure," he said. He cited the example of the eruption of Mount Talang volcano in Indonesia's Sumatra province in April 2005, which geologists have said was connected to the devastating December 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami.

Ismail said the Soputan volcano eruption isn't surprising as Indonesia sits on the seismically active Pacific "Ring of Fire," and Soputan is one of the most active volcanoes on the island.

Soputan's eruption status was raised from an alert to standby 4 kilometers (2.5 miles) from the summit and up to 6.5 kilometers to the west-southwest. Standby status means the public should avoid the area nearest the volcano and have masks available in the event of ash fall.

Planes were warned of the ash clouds because volcanic ash is hazardous for their engines.

National disaster agency spokesman Sutopo Purwo Nugroho dismissed concerns that the volcano's eruption could affect planes transporting aid and supplies to the quake disaster areas. The earthquake set off a tsunami and devastated several communities, with the official death toll rising Wednesday to 1,407 and expected to increase further. Thousands of others are injured and more than 70,000 have been displaced from their homes.

Nugroho said volcanic ash is not heading to the city of Palu, where most of the victims from the quake and tsunami are from, as the wind is blowing in another direction. He said it hasn't disrupted plane services or affected any evacuations from the disaster areas.

Nugroho denounced videos that had appeared on social media allegedly showing villagers fleeing from billowing black smoke from the volcano and a long smoldering lava river as a hoax. He said so far no lava has spewed out from Soputan. No injuries or deaths have been reported and there is no need for any evacuation at the moment, he added.

Indonesia is an archipelago of more than 250 million people and government seismologists monitor more than 120 active volcanoes.

In the photos, first obtained by gcaptain.com, the People's Republic of China destroyer Luoyang is seen within 45 yards of the USS Decatur before the U.S. ship is forced to veer away to avoid a collision near the Gaven Reefs on Sunday, U.S. Pacific Fleet spokesman Lt. Cmdr. Tim Gorman said.

The photos were deemed to be legitimate, but it wasn't clear how they were obtained, a U.S. Navy official told Stars and Stripes.

The destroyer conducted an "an unsafe and unprofessional maneuver," Gorman said. He added the Chinese ship conducted a series of increasingly aggressive maneuvers that were accompanied by warnings urging the Decatur to depart.

The USS Decatur, a guided-missile destroyer, was conducting a freedom of navigation operation in the South China Sea, a U.S. defense official told Fox News in a statement. The operation was conducted to "uphold the rights and freedoms of all states under international law. Decatur sailed within 12 nautical miles of Gaven and Johnson Reefs in the Spratly Islands," the official said.

China claims the rights to most of the strategic waterway and has built man-made islands on reefs and equipped them with airstrips, radar domes and missile systems.

China opposed the U.S. warship's entry into the waters around the reefs, the Chinese defense ministry said in a statement Tuesday. Chinese officials confirmed it sent the Luoyang to drive the USS Decatur away and urged the U.S. to stop its "provocative" actions.

The body of a woman who went missing while hiking in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park has been found, park officials said Tuesday.

Mitzie Sue "Susan" Clements, 53, was last seen in the Clingmans Dome area of the park on Sept. 25, according to the National Park Service (NPS). She was hiking with her daughter when the two were separated on the Forney Ridge Trail.

The park is on the border of North Carolina and Tennessee.

More than 100 people, in addition to around 30 state and local agencies, searched for Clements. Helicopters, canine teams and specialized drones were utilized to find the Cleves, Ohio woman, the NPS said on Saturday. She reportedly went missing on "unforgiving terrain."

Further information on Clements' death was not immediately available.

"Our hearts are with the family and friends of Ms. Clements," the park service said. "Thanks to everyone that participated in the search."
