Republican Colorado Congresswoman Lauren Boebert's son Tyler is facing a new charge of child abuse after his 2-year-old son went wandering out of the house ... TMZ has learned.

This is the second time Tyler, 20, is in trouble with the law after his son got loose ... he was slapped with a similar citation last year.

Jonathan Majors broke down in tears while speaking about his wife Meagan Good's unwavering support through his assault and harassment trial ... crediting her with building him up when he needed it the most.

Watch the emotional clip from his Tuesday appearance on "For The Fellas" ... he immediately tears up talking about Meagan's presence through the trial. He showers her with praise, and says she shows up for him in every way he needs, calling her his "everything."

The actor and Meagan tied the knot in 2025 ... after she stood by his side through his 2023 trial for assaulting and harassing his ex-girlfriend in March of that year. He was found guilty of one count of misdemeanor third-degree assault and one count of second-degree harassment in the domestic dispute.

Shia LaBeouf was apparently looking for a fight before he got his butt kicked early Tuesday ... and we have video of what may have instigated his epic beatdown.

Then, he suddenly starts shouting obscenities at the guy -- an older gentleman who stays cool the whole time -- and lunges forward to deliver a headbutt straight to the guy's face!

Hugh Hefner kept a sex diary full of lurid descriptions and thousands of nude images of his conquests, at least according to his widow ... and she's fighting to keep it all under wraps.

Hugh is famous for his Playboy Magazine empire, but Crystal and Gloria says the scrapbooks are personal nudes and not photos that were ever shown in Playboy. They say Hef's alleged sex diary dates back to the 1960s ... with names of sexual partners matched with sex acts.

The FBI came up dry on its DNA test of the glove found 2 miles from Nancy Guthrie's home, but TMZ has learned the agency is now doing genealogy testing, which has become a powerful tool in catching criminals.

The DNA on the glove did not get a hit from CODIS -- the database that profiles nearly 27 million people convicted of various crimes -- but genealogy testing is far broader. They're also analyzing DNA evidence found at Nancy's house.

The big companies -- 23andMe and Ancestry.com -- do not cooperate with law enforcement for privacy reasons. But smaller companies work with law enforcement, so it's another avenue for the FBI to pursue.

The new owner of Jeffrey Epstein's notorious Zorro Ranch in New Mexico is speaking out, claiming the property was never visited by police, and he says he welcomes any investigation ... after allegations women and girls were sex trafficked there for years.

Don Huffines — a wealthy Texas businessman and former Republican state senator with ties to MAGA — posted a message on X Monday night, saying he and his family purchased the ranch in 2024 and "maintained an open line of communication with local authorities."

However, law enforcement never requested access to the Santa Fe property even though Epstein was accused of sex trafficking and sexually assaulting women and girls there when he was alive, according to Huffines. There was also talk about bodies being buried on the property ... but that was never proven.

An attorney in Milwaukee, Wisconsin is promising to cough up a $100K reward to anyone who has information that leads to an arrest in Arizona's Nancy Guthrie case.

Attorney Michael Hupy -- a prominent personal injury attorney lawyer, and president of Milwaukee Crime Stoppers -- announced the $100,000 would be offered through Crime Stoppers ... which allows tipsters to remain anonymous.

He told local channel WITI-TV he feels the anonymity may encourage people to come forward, and Crime Stoppers is the "perfect place to do it."

The Pima County Sheriff's Department in Tucson initially announced a reward of up to $2,500 for information leading to an arrest ... while the FBI's original offer was $50,000. The FBI announced Thursday the new reward was upped to $100,000.

Jeffrey Epstein may have had a collection of highly poisonous plants known to produce a drug that blocks free will in its victims ... according to newly discovered emails in the last document dump of the Epstein Files.

In one of the uncovered messages, Epstein sends an email asking about his "trumpet plants at nursery."

For background ... Angel's Trumpet plants are extremely toxic and produce a drug called scopolamine, which is known to basically turn humans into zombies, wiping them of memory and eliminating their free will. Severe intoxication reportedly may even cause paralysis and death.

Even more alarming, scopolamine reportedly doesn't show up on toxicology reports.

Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos has just confirmed all of Nancy Guthrie's family members have been cleared as possible suspects in her disappearance.

Nanos released a statement Monday, saying, "To be clear ... the Guthrie family -- to include all siblings and spouses -- has been cleared as possible suspects in this case. The family has been nothing but cooperative and gracious and are victims in this case."

He continued ... "To suggest otherwise is not only wrong, it is cruel. The Guthrie family are victims plain and simple."

TMZ has received a 4th email from the man claiming to know who kidnapped Nancy Guthrie and where she is ... and we have a proposition for that person.

The email -- with the same bitcoin account as the other 3 notes -- says in part, "I know what I saw 5 days ago south of the border and I was told to shut up so I know who he is and that was definitely Nancy with them."

This is the second reference he's made to there being more than one person involved in the purported abduction. In the third letter, received by TMZ on Friday, he said, "... be prepared to go International."
