Crime & Arrests

9:51 AM PT -- Demarcus Robinson's attorney, Jacqueline Sparagna of Werksman Jackson & Quinn LLP, tells TMZ Sports ... "Mr. Robinson has taken this process extremely seriously by already completing most of the terms of his probation. We expect that his probation will terminate early at the 18-month mark after which his case will be expunged."

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Demarcus Robinson has been sentenced to probation in his DUI case, TMZ Sports has learned.

Court records show the 30-year-old cut a deal with Los Angeles prosecutors this week and submitted a plea of nolo contendere to one misdemeanor count of driving under the influence of alcohol.

A judge sentenced him to 36 months of probation ... and ordered him to pay a $390 fine, records show. As part of the pact with prosecutors, he also must complete several programs, including a MADD victim impact program.

Newly released police video shows Mary Lou Retton flaunted her celebrity status during her arrest earlier this year ... at one point yelling to officers, "I'm West Virginia's First Daughter!"

The run-in with the Fairmont City Police Department took place in Marion County, W.V., back on May 17 ... after authorities said she was driving recklessly.

An incident report stated during a traffic stop, cops smelled booze on her person ... and noted she was slurring her words. It added "a screw top container of wine" was visible in her passenger seat as well.

Whitney Purvis' baby daddy is speaking out about his ex's arrest for involuntary manslaughter -- saying he hopes this will be a turning point in her troubled life.

Purvis' ex-boyfriend Weston Gosa tells TMZ ... he hopes her arrest "will be the wake-up call Whitney needs to get the help and recovery she needs."

He went on to say he and his family are "deeply sad to hear the news, and our prayers are with the victim’s family. We’re praying justice will be done for the sake of the victim’s family."

Doc Antle -- the ponytailed big-cat handler from "Tiger King" -- just got slapped with a 12-month prison sentence ... after pleading guilty in a wild case involving dirty money and illegal wildlife dealings.

The Myrtle Beach Safari owner admitted to laundering more than $500K in what he thought was part of a human smuggling op, and also copped to violating the Lacey Act -- which bans illegal wildlife trafficking.

Now, he’s not only doing time, but also has to fork over $55K, give up three chimps, nearly $200K in assets, and serve three years of supervised release once he's out of prison.

D.L. Hughley says justice was served in the Diddy criminal trial, but he's ripping folks for celebrating the verdict ... telling us it's a morally bankrupt response.

The comedian joined us on "TMZ Live" Tuesday, and we asked him about some of the favorable reactions to Diddy being acquitted of sex trafficking and racketeering charges.

Folks outside the courthouse danced in the streets and poured baby oil on themselves when the verdict came back last week ... and D.L. says that's a horrible look.

Mark your calendars ... Sean "Diddy" Combs finally has a sentencing date for his prostitution conviction in his federal criminal trial.

Judge Arun Subramanian just officially set Diddy's sentencing for October 3 ... the same day he originally proposed last week, when Diddy was convicted on two charges of transporting male prostitutes for sex.

Diddy will remain in custody until his sentencing date ... and by that time, he will already have been locked up for over a year ... and his time served will go towards his sentence.

Here's Bryan Kohberger's signed confession to the brutal murders of four Idaho college students ... but his admission of guilt doesn't include an explanation behind the slayings.

Kohberger's copping to a heinous killing spree that claimed the lives of Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin -- who were found butchered inside an off-campus house in November 2022 -- admitting responsibility to four counts of first-degree murder.

In the docs, obtained by TMZ, Kohberger admits to murdering his victims with "premeditation and with malice aforethought."

Whitney Purvis has been placed on suicide watch at the Georgia jail where she's being held for involuntary manslaughter ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell us the "16 and Pregnant" star was medically designated and committed within the jail system after making suicidal comments behind bars. Our sources say she's also undergoing a detox as she withdraws from drug use.

We broke the story ... Purvis was arrested Monday, accused of distributing a dangerous street drug known as "Tranq" -- a lethal mix of fentanyl and xylazine.

Here's the verdict sheet returned by jurors in Sean "Diddy" Combs' federal criminal trial ... and you can see the check marks for "Not Guilty" on the sex trafficking and racketeering charges.

Jurors reached their verdict Wednesday morning last week after a couple days of deliberations ... and they acquitted Diddy on one count of racketeering conspiracy, one count of sex trafficking of Casandra Ventura and one count of sex trafficking of "Jane."

The 12-member jury -- 8 men and 4 women -- only checked "Guilty" on counts 3 and 5 ... which are both transportation for the purpose of prostitution, AKA the Mann Act.

Diddy's legal team is touting their huge victory at the federal criminal trial last week ... while blasting the latest lawsuit against the mogul, claiming he doused a man with his semen after masturbating into a Notorious B.I.G. shirt.

Attorneys for Diddy have now responded to the suit filed Monday by the John Doe plaintiff, who accuses Diddy of ejaculating into the garment and tossing it at him, causing semen to splash on his lap and arm.

The suit comes just days after Diddy was acquitted of racketeering and sex trafficking charges at his federal criminal trial in NYC -- though he was convicted of the lesser charges of transportation to engage in prostitution.

Total mayhem outside a California GameStop this weekend -- three men got into a fight while waiting in line for Pokémon cards ... resulting in one man being stabbed, and cops swooping in and arresting the two suspects.

Watch the clip of the wild brawl that went down Saturday morning in Colma, near San Francisco -- it all kicked off when Miguel OrellanasFlores and Isaiah Calles reportedly cut in line, sparking an argument with the victim. The three men exchanged blows as other people scrambled out of the way.

After the video cuts out, police say things escalated when 49-year-old OrellanaFlores allegedly smacked the victim in the back of the head with a glass Mason jar. Then 27-year-old Calles allegedly grabbed the shattered glass and stabbed the victim multiple times.

Whitney Purvis has double the trouble with the authorities -- not only was the "16 and Pregnant" star picked up by local police, but the feds also arrested her and are now investigating the case ... TMZ has learned.

Jae W. Chung, Acting Special Agent in Charge of the federal Drug Enforcement Administration, tells TMZ ... Whitney was busted Monday by Atlanta-based DEA agents and officers from the Rome Police Department in Georgia.

As we first reported ...Whitney was hit with state charges of involuntary manslaughter and drug offenses in connection with the fentanyl death of John Mark Harris.

Whitney Purvis is in police custody after being arrested for felony involuntary manslaughter involving a fatal overdose ... TMZ has learned.

The "16 and Pregnant" star was busted Monday by sheriff's deputies in Floyd County, GA ... according to online records. The involuntary manslaughter charge is for intentionally distributing a drug called Tranq -- a combo of Fentanyl and Xylazine.

Cops say the Tranq caused the victim -- John Mark Harris -- to suffer a toxic overdose.

The feds are hesitant to pursue criminal charges against powerful men named in the Jeffrey Epstein files because they aren't confident they can secure a conviction ... at least according to investigative reporter Tara Palmeri.

Tara's been covering the Epstein case for years now, and she joined us on "TMZ Live" Monday to give us her read on the DOJ/FBI memo announcing no "further disclosure" and no investigations against uncharged third parties.

While Tara agrees there's no client list, she says the FBI definitely has evidence linking the rich and powerful to Epstein's prostitution ring ... but she says the memo makes them sound gun-shy about prosecuting.

Proponents of theories building for months over which rich and famous pals might appear on Jeffrey Epstein's alleged "client list" were met with an underwhelming fed announcement -- and now a lawyer for the convicted sex offender is shaming the financier's friends who he says initially ran for the hills.

Here's the deal ... the Department of Justice announced Monday there's no evidence Epstein kept a “client list,” or was murdered in his jail cell -- a shocking revelation to some who naturally, immediately, called BS.

David Schoen, one of Epstein's lawyers, tells TMZ ... he never expected some super secret list to be found ... 'cause it made no sense.

The family of Kaylee Goncalves collected $85K in donations for trial travel prior to the highly controversial Bryan Kohberger plea deal ... and now they're trying to give it all back, since they say keeping the dough would be as low as what prosecutors did to them.

Steve Goncalves tells TMZ ... after the family was recently robbed of a trial, they're trying to get GoFundMe cash back to all those who donated -- but most people are telling them to keep it ... 'cause they're also super pissed over the shocking turn of events.

Although it's a hassle during an already difficult time -- the crowdfunding campaign closed before the plea deal, which means the family has to handle the returns -- Steve told us he refuses to "bait and switch these beautiful people like [lead prosecutor] Bill Thompson did to our family.”
