Authorities Investigate After Remains Of 3 Children Found In Memphis

Authorities say they are investigating the discovery of unidentified remains of three children, believed to be between 3 and 7 years of age, in Memphis that could have been there for years. At a news conference Wednesday, Memphis Police Chief Cerelyn “CJ” Davis said a skull was found near a wooded area by someone walking their dog on March 8, who reported it to police. That led to further searches over the days and weeks. A K-9 cadaver dog led authorities to a drainage pipe later searched by camera. On April 1, investigators found another skull, this one in the drainage system, Davis said. The following day, search teams in the area found another 14 bones, Davis said. About 170 personnel from various agencies, from the FBI to search and rescue personnel, were scouring the area on Wednesday, seeking more evidence that could help identify the deceased, Davis said. Police said they hoped to close the portion of the investigation at that specific search area crime scene on Wednesday evening. The cause of death is still undetermined. Authorities believe there is no active threat to the public. Davis said the children were not people reported as missing in the Memphis area. “Someone knows of missing children that we have discovered in this area,” Davis said. “This is heartbreaking, it’s disturbing and at this time we have numerous resources to help us to identify these young people and bring closure to this investigation.”

War Reenactments Honor American History

America's 250th anniversary celebrations are officially underway across the country including where the Revolutionary War began. In Lexington, Massachusetts, crowds gathered before sunrise to watch a reenactment of the Battle of Lexington, the first clash of the American revolution. The Battle of Lexington marked the opening moments of the Revolutionary War more than 250 years ago, when a small group of local militia stood their ground against a much larger British force. Today, that moment is being honored as part of the nationwide "America 250" celebration, a commemoration leading up to the country's 250th birthday. Organizers say the goal is not just to remember history, but to bring it to life for a new generation, highlighting the people and events that helped shape the nation's founding.

Trump Administration Celebrates "One Nation Under God"

In preparation for the 250th birthday of our country, the Trump administration is asking U.S. citizens to come together in prayer. Ahead of independence day last year, President Donald Trump said this in Iowa on July 3rd: "As we prepare to celebrate two and a half centuries of freedom, I am inviting America's great religious communities to pray for our nation and for our people. From the beginning, this has always been a country sustained and strengthened by prayer. So important, if we bring religion back stronger, you're going to see everything get better and better and better. So, as we chart our course for the next 250 years, let us rededicate ourselves to one nation under God." The White House is asking Americans to dedicate one hour a week to praying for our country and our people. Calling it an opportunity to rededicate ourselves to the principles that gave birth to this land of liberty. And - did you know this fun fact.... The phrase "under God" was officially added to the pledge of allegiance on June 14th, 1954, by President Dwight D. Eisenhower. He added it to contrast American ideals with "godless" Soviet communism during the Cold War.

Navy Veteran Charged In Series Of Atlanta-area Shootings Dies In Jail

A man charged in a string of shootings near Atlanta that left three people dead, including a Department of Homeland Security employee who was walking her dog, died in jail Tuesday night, authorities said. Olaolukitan Adon Abel, 26, was found in his cell unresponsive, according to a statement from the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Office. Officials performed lifesaving measures on the U.S. Navy veteran, but he was later pronounced dead. The official cause of death has not been determined, but officials don't suspect foul play, according to the office. Officials are conducting an internal review. Adon Abel was accused of killing Prianna Weathers, 31, and DHS auditor Lauren Bullis, 40, in last week's attack. Authorities had also been seeking an additional murder charge for Tony Mathews, 49, who was injured in the attack and died Sunday. Authorities haven’t offered a potential motive for the shootings. It’s unclear if Adon Abel knew any of the victims — police have said they believe at least one was targeted at random. Adon Abel's roommates told The Associated Press that shortly before the shootings, he got in an intense argument over the air conditioning in their home and stormed out. He lived with six others in separate units of the home. The United Kingdom native was granted U.S. citizenship in 2022 while serving in the U.S. Navy and stationed in the San Diego area. The attacks quickly drew the Trump administration’s attention, with Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin raising concern that Adon Abel was granted U.S. citizenship when Democrat Joe Biden was president. Mullin cataloged a litany of Adon Abel's previous alleged crimes, but it is unclear whether any of them occurred before he became a citizen.
