The former male escort suing Diddy and Cassie over alleged trauma from their freak-offs says he's got photos that will help prove his case ... claiming the images show him being flown out and put up in hotels for marathon sex sessions.

TMZ obtained new legal docs filed by Clayton Howard, the former sex worker turned law student who testified in the Diddy criminal trial, as he tries to save his lawsuit against the former couple.

Clayton submitted an amended lawsuit with photos attached. He says the first photo was taken on December 16, 2016, and shows the view from a seat on a plane. During the trial, prosecutors revealed how Diddy would hire male escorts and fly them across the country to have sex with Cassie while he watched and gave instructions, so this seems to be what Clayton's getting at.

A man was arrested after the death of a Black woman found hanging from a tree was ruled a homicide.

Police in Jackson, Mississippi, had 2 search warrants and an arrest warrant for Jarques Ratliff in the death of Tasia Fortune, according to Chief RaShall Brackney.

Brackney said in a news conference Friday ... "Last night, the medical examiner’s office officially classified Miss Fortune’s death as a homicide. With that determination, our investigators moved quickly."

Shailene Woodley's friends are alarmed Aaron Rodgers is publicly discussing their past relationship ... and they say the married NFL star hasn't spoken with his ex-fiancée in more than two years.

Sources close to Shailene tell TMZ ... Aaron knew she was a private person and appeared to respect that when they were together, making his recent podcast comments feel completely out of character.

One source put it bluntly ... "We're questioning why a married dude is bringing up an ex he hasn't spoken with in over 2 years."

Kroy Biermann Jr. has officially been granted bond in his sexual battery case ... though it sounds like he may have some major hurdles to navigate because the judge says one scenario would require him to stay the hell away from anyone under the age of 16 ... a daunting task for a 15-year-old.

The court set Kroy Jr's bond at $200k. The judge said he will have to live with his mom and attend school online. Kroy Jr. will not be allowed to use social media or a cell phone ... and cannot have contact with anyone 16 or under. He will also have to wear an electronic monitoring device.

The court hearing took place on Friday in Georgia -- where prosecutors claim they found videos on his phone showing him having sex with an underage relative -- and featured a moment where conditions of bail were discussed.

The juror on the Lindsay Clancy trial who was the lone holdout reportedly has a history of alleged domestic violence against his family ... according to a new bombshell report.

According to an investigation by Boston's NBC10 that doesn't name the member of the jury, the man has an active restraining order against him and his landlord is trying to evict him.

The juror -- who single-handedly prevented a unanimous not guilty verdict -- was reportedly previously charged with assault after allegedly grabbing his then-wife by throat and throwing her into a dresser -- a charge that was later dismissed, and the couple divorced.

Renowned boxer Fernando Vargas Jr. was arrested on suspicion of DUI ... and the alleged incident apparently went down inside a parking garage at Universal Studios Hollywood.

Authorities paint a picture that sounds right out of the theme park's new "Fast & Furious" ride ... Fernando Jr. was allegedly involved in a three-vehicle crash Thursday night inside the theme park's parking structure.

Fernando posted a video on social media a few hours before the arrest ... and he's shirtless in a car, sitting next to a woman who appears to be riding shotgun as they listen to music and flex for Instagram.

Kroy Biermann Jr.'s lawyer is firing back at claims prosecutors made about the 15-year-old in court ... namely, allegations that KJ had videos on his phone showing him having sex with an underage family member.

Jason B. Sheffield is repping the son of "Real Housewives of Atlanta" star Kim Zolciak and former NFL player Kroy Biermann in his sexual battery case ... and during Friday's bond hearing, prosecutors made some shocking claims about a prior case, which was previously unknown.

Sheffield tells TMZ ... "The characterizations made in court regarding the prior juvenile matter involving KJ Biermann grossly misrepresent both the facts and the ultimate resolution of that case."

Pink is finally using her own words to share how she feels about the backlash she's received over seemingly calling out Macklemore's pro-Palestine speech.

The singer went on Instagram to share a lengthy post clarifying what she believes when it comes to Israel, Hamas and Palestine ... after reposting a call for the rapper to be removed from Ed Sheeran's tour and catching tons of heat.

Pink explained the repost she shared included "words I didn’t write, and I wouldn’t have chosen all of them."

She said she didn't like that people online were filling in the blanks behind the repost without knowing what she was thinking ... and now she's filling us all in.

The biggest Lindsay Clancy jury revelation is the sole holdout on the panel actually did change his vote, and that could make it more difficult for Clancy to appeal the mistrial.

When Paula Devlin spoke to Gayle King on "CBS Mornings," she said the holdout juror refused to vote not guilty by reason of lack of criminal responsibility -- like the other 11 jurors -- because he doubted Clancy was having a psychotic break when she killed her 3 kids and attempted to kill herself.

She also revealed the holdout, a Black male, initially wanted to find her guilty of first degree murder. However, Paula says that changed after they reviewed video of Clancy's interview with investigators. She doesn't say where he landed, but presumably it would be guilty of either second degree murder or manslaughter.

A 5th plane was targeted by terrorists on 9/11 -- something the government does not want you to know -- so says the pilot, the flight attendants, the airline's dispatcher, and others.

TMZ produced a documentary -- "TMZ Investigates 9/11: The Fifth Plane" -- which is currently on YouTube. The doc described the events on United Flight 23, which was scheduled to take off from JFK at 9:00 AM, with Los Angeles as the final destination.

There were 7 people who raised suspicion on the part of the crew, checking out the cockpit, arguing with a flight attendant not to delay the takeoff over a food issue.

12:13 PM PT -- Video from inside the courtroom shows KJ's lawyer talking to the judge during the hearing, explaining why KJ's case should play out in juvenile court to keep things away from the media and public. The attorney also mentions the polygraph test Kim claims her son took and passed.

The judge did not make a ruling on the juvenile court ask ... taking more time to mull it over.

10:48 AM PT -- Kim Zolciak and her daughter Brielle Biermann were seen leaving after Court on Friday.

Kroy "KJ" Biermann Jr. had videos on his phone showing him having sex with an underage relative ... according to prosecutors in his sexual assault case.

Kim Zolciak and Kroy Biermann's eldest son appeared in a Georgia court Friday as part of a bond hearing ... and Page Six reports the prosecution claims investigators found videos on KJ's cell phone which they say depict the 15-year-old having penetrative sex with a relative under 12 years old.

It's unclear how old KJ was when the alleged videos were taken.

Deputy District Attorney Caitlin McGillicuddy claims there were "multiple encounters" on video found on KJ's phone. She also claims KJ uses "predatory, derogatory" language toward the alleged victim in the videos.

The pilot of a United Airlines plane that he says was targeted by terrorists on 9/11 is opening up about how frustrated he's been with the government's deafening silence.

Tom Mannello joined us on "TMZ Live" Friday -- the 25th anniversary of 9/11 -- to discuss what went suspiciously sideways on his flight ... and how he tried to put the events of the day out of his mind.

We told you all about United Flight 23 in our documentary "TMZ Investigates 9/11: The Fifth Plane" ... the plane was scheduled to take off from JFK at 9:00 AM for LAX ... but it never got off the ground. A total of 7 people on board raised suspicion.

The whistleblower who sounded the alarm over A.I. is telling us just how much time we have left before the technology could wipe us all out.

Ex-Anthropic employee Jacob Coxon joined us on "TMZ Live" Friday to crunch the numbers for us ... and by his calculations, he believes there will be a 10% chance of human extinction in the next ten years -- that is, if A.I. companies don't get things in check.

When pressed about why so many people who share his concerns would continue to work at A.I. companies ... Jacob explains they're hoping to do what they can to rein it in and make it safe.
