Neo took to Instagram Saturday to speak out in a series of fiery posts ... kicking one off by saying he knows his silence in previous months has led to a "void of information that everyone wants to fill."

However, this case isn't about him, Neo notes ... it's about getting justice for Celeste Rivas, whose mutilated body was found in the trunk of D4vd's Tesla more than 6 months ago.

Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett's bodyguard -- who was killed in a standoff with police this week -- reportedly had a checkered past.

The bodyguard went by Mike King ... but CBS News is now reporting that was an alias -- and his real name was Diamon-Mazairre Robinson.

A man shot and killed 2 people in Florida Friday, about a mile from where the ongoing PGA Tour is being played ... leading to the entrance time for the third round to be delayed by a couple of hours Saturday.

The suspect, identified by St. Johns County Sheriff Rob Hardwick as Christian Barrios, drilled 2 people with bullets around 10:30 PM Friday night in a Walgreens parking lot in connection with a domestic violence situation, Hardwick announced. He then sent authorities on a wild manhunt, including on TPC Sawgrass property, where the tour is being played.

Hardwick says Barrios stole a PGA Tour radio but later dropped it, and that K-9 units were hot on his trail at the TPC Sawgrass property.

The gunman then hopped into a black BMW and led cops all the way to Nassau County, where he crashed the car into the woods and fled on foot. He was eventually apprehended and put behind bars.

The two victims died in the hospital. Their identities have not been released.

Barrios has a criminal past with at least 27 arrests and was out on probation, Hardwick said, and he knew both people he murdered.

Lawyers for Sean "Diddy" Combs are arguing his sentence is far too harsh ... accusing the judge in a new legal filing of punishing him for crimes for which he was acquitted.

Diddy's lawyers blast his 50-month sentence as a "perversion of justice."

Neo, who appeared before the grand jury for only 40 minutes, clearly did not offer much info, but now he says he knows a lot.

Retired Air Force Major General William Neil McCasland went missing last month … and his wife is fed up with all the misinformation about his disappearance. He vanished two weeks ago, on February 27, from his home in Albuquerque, New Mexico.

Neil's disappearance has been getting some attention because he spent his final two years in the USAF as a commander at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base in Ohio … which has a lot of lore when it comes to UFOs.

Here’s where the conspiracy theories come in -- many people believe the base contains evidence of aliens from a mysterious 1947 crash in Roswell, NM.

But Neil’s wife, Susan McCasland Wilkerson, took to Facebook to insist her husband “does not have any special knowledge about the ET bodies and debris from the Roswell crash stored at Wright-Patt.”

She wrote … “This connection is not a reason for someone to abduct Neil.”

She also acknowledged Neil had access to some pretty classified stuff during his time in the Air Force, but thinks it’s “quite unlikely” that someone kidnapped him in order to learn his "very dated secrets."

The Bernalillo County Sheriff's Office in New Mexico says Neil was home and spoke to a repairman at 10 AM on Feb. 27, a Friday. Susan left for a doctor’s appointment around 11 AM … but her husband was gone when she got back about an hour later.

Police say his phone and glasses were still at home, but his hiking boots and wallet were gone … along with a .38-caliber revolver.

Investigators found a gray USAF sweatshirt just over a mile away from Neil’s home, but no one’s confirmed if it’s actually his.

In her post, Susan mentioned there’s “absolutely no sign” of her husband, adding … “Maybe the best hypothesis is that aliens beamed him up to the mothership. However, no sightings of a mothership hovering above the Sandia Mountains have been reported.”

Laken Snelling's Snapchat could hold the key to prosecutors securing a conviction in their manslaughter case against her.

When explaining why, cops cited the Snapchat group message the roommates used to communicate ... in which one of the roommates asked about a sound they heard at 4 AM on August 27, 2025 -- and another confirmed they heard it too.

Laken later responded in the chat -- just before 9 AM -- that she passed out and fell, causing the noise. After leaving the house, her roommates told cops they went to her room and found a deceased baby in a bag in the closet.

Swing and a miss for Blake Lively ... she tried to get legal sanctions against one of Justin Baldoni's lawyers ... but a judge wasn't buying it.

Here's the deal ... Blake's legal team filed a motion back in August, complaining to a judge about what Bryan Freedman was saying about her in the media. She asked the judge to sanction Freedman.

Well, on Friday, the judge denied Blake's motion ... according to new legal docs obtained by TMZ.

Victoria Gotti says she would rather forgo a kidney transplant from her son and let her disease take over her body than watch her oldest child heal from the procedure in prison.

TMZ spoke with Victoria on Thursday, and she tells us her rationale is rooted in what happened to her infamous dad, New York mobster John Gotti, when he went to federal prison.

Victoria says her father -- the former head of the Gambino crime family, who was convicted of racketeering and murder at his federal trial in 1992 -- died of throat cancer behind bars in 2002 at the age of 61.

She says she saw how her dad was treated with his health issues in prison, and she doesn't want that for her son, Carmine.

Andrea Constand -- who sent Bill Cosby to prison with her testimony about how he drugged and sexually assaulted her -- is now reportedly helping out a new victim of the disgraced actor-comedian.

Constand once again took the witness stand to give testimony on Thursday, but this time it was for a civil case filed by 84-year-old Cosby accuser, Donna Motsinger, according to The New York Times. Motsinger, a former waitress, claims she was 31 when Cosby drugged and raped her in 1972 after he brought her to one of his comedy shows.

Constand and two other women are being called as witnesses in the civil case because their stories are similar to Motsinger's. During hours of testimony in L.A. Superior Court, Constand described her horrific experience with Cosby in 2004 when she was the director of operations for the women’s basketball program at Temple University. Cosby was her mentor, who was an important alumnus at the college.
