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.

Newly surfaced surveillance footage from the night of Jeffrey Epstein’s death ... and it appears to show prison guards hanging out just steps away from his cell during the suspected timeframe he had taken his own life.

In the video, first reported by the NYPost, correctional officers Tova Noel and Michael Thomas can be seen around 3:15 AM in the Special Housing Unit at Manhattan’s Metropolitan Correctional Center -- writing on paper, pacing, and chatting on the phone -- instead of carrying out the required checks, according to footage included in a recently released batch of DOJ documents.

Epstein was incredibly close to where this encounter was captured ... as he was housed in the first cell on the block, just down a short flight of stairs behind the officer station on the ninth floor.

A mailman went totally postal on a 4-year-old Jewish boy in New York, throwing him to the ground with such force his yarmulke flew off his head.

The violent incident occurred in broad daylight on a street in Ramapo — a town in Rockland County, NY — and was captured on video by security cameras.

As you can see ... the United States Postal worker is standing on the sidewalk outside his mail truck when the boy walks up and tries to engage with him. But the postal worker is in no mood for the boy and knocks him right on his ass.

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.

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.

Dakota Mortensen just had a major legal victory against Taylor Frankie Paul -- his request for a temporary protective order has been granted ... and Taylor won't be seeing their son, Ever, until April.

According to court docs obtained by TMZ, Dakota will have temporary custody of their 2-year-old until at least April 7, when they're due in court.

Until then, the fired "Bachelorette" star must also stay 100 feet away from Dakota, which includes his home. She also can't own any weapons.

We told you all about it -- Dakota went to court earlier this week to start the process of getting a protective order against Taylor ... and happened to be there at the same time as Taylor's ex-husband, Tate.

Dakota filed Thursday and told the court about a "chaotic" and "frightening" incident during which she recently choked him.

We broke the news -- just last month, Taylor allegedly choked Dakota, ripped a necklace from his neck, and scratched his neck during two altercations that occurred with their son in the same residence.

We also obtained video of the 'Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' star physically attacking him ahead of her 2023 arrest for assault. As you know, ABC cut her season of "The Bachelorette" just hours after the video was released.

Investigators say the death of American college student James "Jimmy" Gracey -- who went missing for days in Spain -- was most likely a tragic accident.

On Friday, Mossos d’Esquadra police told the New York Post ... "Everything points to it being an accidental death."

Jimmy's body was found in a Barcelona marina Thursday and was identified hours later.

In a statement Friday, police said ... "The relevant arrangements have been made with the victim's relatives, who are in Barcelona."

The University of Alabama student disappeared while leaving Shôko -- a popular nightclub nearby -- around 3 AM Tuesday ... and never returned to his Airbnb.

According to DailyMail, a witness told cops they spotted the Illinois native "walking towards a rocky outcrop" the night he went missing.

Gracey was 20 years old.

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.

Taylor Frankie Paul's 'Secret Lives of Mormon Wives' costar Miranda Hope is breaking her silence.

She took to Instagram Friday to condemn domestic violence, writing that she's "at a loss for words" and "cannot support that kind of behavior."

Sources close to Miranda tell TMZ she saw the video of Taylor throwing stools at Dakota Mortensen for the first time when we posted it yesterday ... and was "shocked and horrified" by the footage. She had more to say on her story ...

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.

"19 Kids and Counting" star Joseph Duggar -- one of Josh Duggar's brothers -- appeared in court in Arkansas for the first time since his arrest for alleged child sex abuse ... and he agreed to be extradited to Florida, the state where he allegedly sexually assaulted a 9-year-old girl.

The reality TV star appeared Friday in court via Zoom and waived his right to an extradition hearing ... and now authorities in Florida have 30 days to pick Joseph up from an Arkansas jail.

As you can see, Joseph is wearing a black-and-white-striped jail jumpsuit as he faces the judge.

TMZ Sports has obtained the probable cause affidavit that details Florida State football player Conor McAneney's arrest ... which states the responding officer punched McAneney in the kisser after the kicker attempted to pull him to the ground.

In the report, cops state the FSU sophomore was being removed from a local bar when he was actively resisting. Cops say they then stepped in to assist ... telling him to leave the bar area and the establishment -- but he still refused to leave, grabbing onto the barrier gates of the business.

From there ... McAneney allegedly escalated a minor incident into a serious offense.

Jail can be a dangerous place for people ... but not for Joseph Duggar, who's super safe behind bars, TMZ has learned.

The former "19 Kids and Counting" star was placed in a "secure" area of the Washington County Jail in Arkansas as he awaits extradition to Bay County, Florida, to face charges that he allegedly molested a 9-year-old girl, according to a supervising corporal at the detention facility. 

The corporal tells TMZ ... Joseph has absolutely no access to other inmates for his own safety due to his high-profile case. Our source says the jail staff is very aware of Joseph's notoriety, and they're keeping him "under constant watch," checking on him hourly if not more often. 

Jill Duggar Dillard and her family are "shocked and heartbroken" over her brother Joseph's arrest for child molestation.

The family shared their reaction on their blog Thursday ... one day after Joseph was taken to the clink in Arkansas and charged with two counts of child sex abuse stemming from an incident with a female minor in 2020.

The family wrote they "strongly condemn abuse" and "support the rule of law and hope that justice will be achieved" in the case, adding ... "Our hearts go out to the innocent juvenile victim of this unspeakable crime and her family. We pray God gives her strength, comfort and hope, and that she is able to get all the help and support she needs and deserves in the days ahead."
