Arrests

TikTok star Matthew Wurnig -- known as the "50 Dates 50 States" creator -- has been booked for a DWI in Minnesota Saturday, TMZ has learned.

The 29-year-old was caught during a traffic stop when he was suspected of driving under the influence ... refusing to submit to a required chemical test -- such as a breathalyzer or blood test-- when requested by law enforcement, according to jail records.

Wuring was later booked into Crow Wing County Jail around 3:30 AM local time and hit with 2 DWI charges, one for refusing to submit to a chemical test and another for second-degree DWI.

Here's the police body cam from Justin Timberlake's DWI arrest in Sag Harbor, NY ... and it shows him struggling through sobriety tests, and his friend playing the *NSYNC card.

The video of the June 2024 arrest was finally released late Friday, revealing cops gave JT a series of field sobriety instructions ... some of which seemed to confuse him. At one point Justin says, "These are, like, hard tests."

Justin was extremely polite as the officer shined a flashlight in his face to observe his eyes, and told him to look straight ahead. Once they tell Justin to walk a straight line, he stumbles a few times.

Joseph Duggar's wife Kendra has been arrested in Arkansas, TMZ has learned.

A warrant was issued for Kendra Friday … police went to the Duggar family compound in Washington County, Arkansas earlier Friday with a warrant for Kendra's arrest ... but she was not there.

But, now she's been taken into custody, according to the Washington County Detention Center. She was wanted for allegedly endangering the welfare of a minor and false imprisonment.

Josh Duggar's brother Joseph is in jail for child molestation charges -- but now, he's facing additional charges for child endangerment and false imprisonment along with his wife, Kendra.

The "19 Kids and Counting" star, who was arrested Wednesday, is now facing 4 counts of second-degree endangering the welfare of a minor, as well as 4 counts of second-degree false imprisonment ... The Tontitown Police Department in Arkansas tells TMZ.

Joseph's wife Kendra is facing the same charges, and a warrant for her arrest has been issued. Local outlet KARK-TV says police arrived at the Duggar family compound in Washington County Friday with a warrant for Kendra's arrest ... but she was not home. Police say the Duggars' Arkansas charges are unrelated to Joseph's Florida case, according to KARK.

Amy Duggar King says she is "not surprised" that her cousin, Joseph Duggar, got arrested for allegedly molesting a 9-year-old girl.

In a statement to People, Amy says ... "In light of the recent allegations involving my cousin, Joseph Duggar, I am sickened, heartbroken and deeply angry."

Amy continues ... "My first thoughts are with the victim, a child who deserved to be safe, protected and surrounded by people she could trust. The courage it took for her to come forward, especially after years of carrying something so heavy, cannot be overstated. That bravery deserves to be honored above all else."

Joseph Duggar from "19 Kids and Counting" brought even more drama to his family's already scandal-ridden name by admitting to having an inappropriate encounter with a minor ... as we wait to find out his fate, we're taking a look back at the 31-year-old's life with wife Kendra in much happier times.

Joseph and Kendra tied the knot in 2017 and share 3 children together -- 7-year-old son Garrett, 6-year-old daughter Addison and 5-year-old daughter Brooklyn.

It was three years after their wedding that Joseph's alleged actions took place ... which, as we reported, is shocking.

Joseph Duggar is getting some support from his incarcerated brother, Josh, after Joseph's arrest for allegedly molesting a 9-year-old girl.

Josh’s attorney Beau Brindley tells TMZ … Josh is concerned for his bro's well-being -- adding he knows the "pain of accusation," which only increases with saturated media coverage.

Brindley says Josh hopes Joseph can hold tight to his faith ... and not get bogged down by the noise and hysteria the publicity will certainly bring.

Zachery Ty Bryan has been sentenced to 19 months in an Oregon jail after pleading guilty to a probation violation.

The former "Home Improvement" star appeared in Lane County court virtually Friday for sentencing ... according to KEZI News in Oregon. He couldn't be there in person because he's in a California jail serving a separate 16-month sentence for DUI.

The 19-month sentence stems from Bryan's November arrest in Eugene, Oregon ... when cops said they responded to a reckless-endangerment call and found Bryan in a pickup truck with his fiancée, Johnnie Faye Cartwright, and their three small children.

Taylor Frankie Paul's children were not removed from her custody after the 2023 incident captured on video, when she attacked Dakota Mortensen and, in the process, inadvertently struck one of her children with a barstool.

Sources with direct knowledge tell TMZ ... Utah's Division of Children and Family Services was notified of the incident. In Utah, there's a mandatory reporting requirement by police, and sources connected to DCFS tell TMZ that's how the agency learned of the incident.

As we reported, the police had the video TMZ posted Thursday -- they even reference it in the police report.

A source connected to the DCFS investigation tells TMZ why TFP's 2 children (she had a third child after the incident) were not removed from her home. We're told the agency has a policy of only removing children from their parents when there is an immediate danger. Our source says the video shows the child who was struck by the barstool was not the intended target -- it ricocheted and struck her.

Shia LaBeouf went ballistic on cops outside his New Orleans home early Friday morning ... and the wild encounter is all caught on video.

In footage obtained by TMZ, Shia is animatedly explaining something to cops about a car. While it’s unclear exactly what he’s saying … at one point, he lifts his shirt and seems to make the sign of the cross.

He then directs the cops to look at a security camera on his house, and shows them his phone … saying, “You gotta understand who I am. I’m a target,” adding he’s an “easy target.”

The newest season of "The Bachelorette" is toast, and ABC is turning to one of its other staples to fill the time slot after Taylor Frankie Paul's crash out ... at least for this Sunday.

Our sources confirmed a rerun of "American Idol" will play in place of "The Bachelorette" on March 22, but that's just the plan for this week. We're told the network brass hasn't yet figured out a permanent replacement for the remainder of the canned season.

TMZ broke the news ... Taylor's 'Bachelorette' season was canceled hours after we posted the 2023 video of her fighting with her baby daddy, Dakota Mortensen.

The world is still trying to wrap their head around the shocking video of Taylor Frankie Paul appearing to assault her ex Dakota Mortensen ... and now Dakota is giving his take on Taylor and the subsequent fallout.

Dakota tells TMZ ...  "As anyone who has seen the video will understand, this is a deeply upsetting situation. I am, unfortunately, used to these baseless claims about me and our relationship, which I categorically deny. I am focusing on our son and his safety, and hope that Taylor will do the same."

As we reported ... In 2023, Taylor pled guilty in abeyance to aggravated assault -- a charge which stemmed from the incident captured in our video. She was later placed on 3 years' probation, which ends in August.

More trouble may be coming down the pike for Taylor Frankie Paul ... we're told Utah prosecutors are looking into whether the recent allegations of assaulting ex Dakota Mortensen constitute a violation of her ongoing probation from her separate case in 2023.

Salt Lake County District Attorney Sim Gill tells TMZ ... "We have received the police report for the new allegations, and it is our understanding the case is being screened by the Draper City prosecutor. We requested the police report so our prosecutors could evaluate how those new allegations may affect the case for which the defendant is currently on probation."

TMZ first reported that Dakota claimed Taylor got physical with him, allegedly choking him and ripping his necklace from his neck. We've confirmed police were called over the incident, and a report was filed.

Taylor Frankie Paul repeatedly attacked Dakota Mortensen during the 2023 incident in which she pled guilty in abeyance to aggravated assault, and the video shows that one of her children was struck during the fight.

TMZ has obtained the video -- a copy of which was evidence in the case -- and it's hard to watch. Dakota struggles to record the altercation with his cellphone as Taylor puts him in a headlock. She backs off ... but then charges and tries to kick him.

The struggle turns violent as Taylor grabs a metal barstool and hurls it at Dakota. He screams at her -- "your daughter is sitting right there" -- but she persists, throwing 2 more stools at him. At that moment, you hear her child, who was curled up on the couch, begin crying.

The police report says the 5-year-old girl was hit and later had a "goose egg on her head."

Joseph Duggar -- who was arrested Wednesday for allegedly sexually abusing an underage girl -- once spoke out against his famous older brother Josh Duggar over accusations of child molestation more than a decade ago.

Back in 2015 ... Joseph weighed in on Josh's misconduct after Josh was accused of inappropriately touching five girls, including his own sisters, Jill and Jessa. Both brothers, of course, starred on TLC’s “19 Kids and Counting.”

Joseph commented on the scandal in a clip for TLC's spinoff "Jill & Jessa: Counting On" ... saying, "Whenever somebody you respect the most is willing to get up and proclaim what we believe as Christians, about being true to your wife, you'd never think that that's the person who's involved in it."

Joseph Duggar from "19 Kids and Counting" has been arrested and charged in Florida with lewd and lascivious behavior, involving unlawful sexual activity with a minor ... TMZ has learned.

According to a press release from the Bay County Sheriff's Office, a 14-year-old alleged victim was interviewed and made claims about several incidents involving the 31-year-old Duggar that she said occurred during a family vacation in Panama City Beach, when she was 9 years old.

The Sheriff's Office says the alleged incidents took place in 2020 and the alleged victim said Duggar repeatedly asked her to sit on his lap, before later asking her to sit next to him on a couch, covering them with a blanket.
