In a disturbing incident out of Texas, law enforcement has apprehended a man who allegedly killed his estranged wife while their children were present in the home.

Jake Bigoni, aged 37, was arrested on Wednesday after police, conducting a welfare check, found his estranged wife, Eliana Bigoni, deceased inside his apartment in Plano, Texas.

Initially charged with felony abuse of a corpse, Bigoni now faces an additional murder charge, as announced by authorities in an official statement.

The welfare check was prompted by a friend of Eliana who alerted authorities when she missed a planned breakfast at 8:30 a.m. on Wednesday and was unreachable, as detailed in an arrest warrant obtained by FOX 4.

The friend further revealed to authorities that the Bigonis were separated and that Eliana was en route to collect their children, aged 2 and 5.

The two were in the process of a divorce when Bigoni was found dead.

Jake Bigoni’s mother later called police, saying her son had phoned her and allegedly said, “I have something to tell you. She’s dead. We got in a fight and she’s dead.”

Upon arriving at Jake Bigoni’s apartment, officers allegedly observed what appeared to be a large blood stain on his shirt, which he said was the result of cleaning. Eliana Bigoni’s body was found in the trunk of a white Hyundai in the apartment’s garage, with officials adding she had major damage to her head and face.

Police said the couple’s children were in the apartment during the alleged murder and weren’t harmed.

According to the report, Jake Bigoni allegedly has a history of violent behavior.

Jake Bigoni is being held in jail with no bond.

Narcan was discovered in the residence where Hayden Panettiere tragically passed away, following what appeared to be an overdose at the age of 36.

This nasal spray, commonly used to counteract opioid overdoses, was located on a mattress within the loft apartment where Panettiere was found on Sunday, as reported by TMZ.

While it’s not clear if the Narcan was administered in an effort to save her, a 911 call released earlier revealed that the actress suffered cardiac arrest following a suspected overdose.

On Monday, the Greenville County Sheriff’s Office announced the completion of Panettiere’s autopsy, noting that there were no signs of trauma on her body.

Authorities will conduct further investigations to determine the exact cause of death, with Chief Deputy Coroner Shelton England informing the Daily Mail that it’s premature to confirm if a drug overdose was responsible.

Meanwhile, a neighbor has spoken of the chaos that unfolded at the scene Sunday after Panettiere was found unresponsive and efforts to revive her proved unsuccessful.  

Micah Lee, who lives in the Judson Mill Lofts complex where Panettiere died, claimed there was a ‘bunch of commotion in the hallway’ after the star allegedly ‘collapsed’ in a unit in the building.

‘The halls are pretty hollow, so noise echoes throughout. And I had just heard about someone collapsing,’ Lee told WYFF. ‘And then afterwards there was talk about cardiac arrest. I can’t confirm any of that. That’s just what I’ve heard.’ 

In an audio of a 911 call made at 1.51pm Sunday, a female dispatcher described the actress as suffering a ‘cardiac arrest.’

A few moments later, a male dispatcher could be heard saying that Panettiere had suffered a suspected overdose at the home.

The actress – who was due to turn 37 this Friday – was pronounced dead at the scene at 2.32pm, just over 40 minutes after the first 911 call was made.

The Greenville County Coroner’s Office has completed the star’s autopsy, with the coroner telling the Daily Mail that ‘no signs of trauma were discovered that would have contributed to the death.’

The cause and exact manner of her death remain under investigation. 

Police and the medical examiner are investigating her death, but say the preliminary investigation has not indicated any signs of foul play or suspicious circumstances.

Panettiere was found ‘unresponsive inside the residence, where she had been temporarily staying,’ the coroner said in a statement.

Investigators will carry out additional studies as they continue to work the case, the coroner’s statement said.

Panettiere and her on-off real estate agent boyfriend Brian Hickerson were said to have flown from Los Angeles to South Carolina one day before she died. 

Hickerson is originally from Greenville, public records show. It is unclear if the couple were in town to visit his family.

Panettiere’s Nashville co-star Charles Esten also performed at The Foundry, a music venue inside the complex, on Friday night as part of his Carolina Tour. 

Judson Mill Lofts is a former textile mill dating back to 1912, which was recently converted into apartments. These include studios and three-bedroom homes that can be rented from $1,295 to $3,485 a month. 

Earlier, a representative for Panettiere confirmed her death, saying her family would remember her as an ‘incredible light’ who brought ‘immeasurable love and joy to all who knew her’.

A statement from her father, Skip, read: ‘It is with profound sadness that we share the tragic passing of our beloved Hayden.

‘She was an incredible light and a force of nature who brought immeasurable love and joy to all who knew her – and to the millions who watched her onscreen.’

Her father also asked that her family be given privacy as they ‘take time to process this unimaginable loss’.

The actress had a history of suffering from drug addiction, beginning when she was just 15 years old. At the time, she claimed she started taking ‘happy pills’ in an effort to make her seem more ‘peppy’ during interviews.

Her addiction worsened while she was battling postpartum depression following the birth of her daughter Kaya in 2014. 

But Panettiere has been sober in recent years, she said in a 2022 interview, noting that ‘it’s an everyday battle.’

‘It’s an everyday choice, and I’m checking in with myself all the time,’ Panettiere told People at the time. ‘But I’m just so grateful to be part of this world again, and I will never take it for granted again.’

Panettiere has also told how she nearly died during childbirth, and later gave full custody of Kaya to her former fiancé, Ukrainian boxer Wladimir Klitschko.

Kaya, now 11, lives in Europe with her father. 

Speaking of the decision, Panettiere said she ‘desperately’ needed help at the time and insisted that Kaya does not feel ‘abandoned’ while appearing in a recent episode of the On Purpose with Jay Shetty podcast.

‘The idea that anybody would think that I would just give away my child and be okay with it is heartbreaking. Couldn’t be further from the truth,’ the actress said.

‘I was struggling with mental health and anxiety and postpartum and having to act my way through it, and just feeling like I completely lost myself,’ she added. 

The actress shared how she struggled with the decision to give Klitschko full custody.

‘It wasn’t a decision I made lightly, nor was it a decision I even wanted to make,’ she said.

‘I was going through a really challenging time in my life… I knew I needed to be able to put her first so that I could get the help I needed and be the mum she needed me to be.’

After giving birth to her daughter in 2014, Panettiere recalled hemorrhaging before she underwent seven blood transfusions and surgery to repair vessels that had begun to fail.

She said: ‘I closed my eyes and just prayed for my daughter to be OK. I truly was ready to go if it was my time. Kaya being safe and healthy was all that mattered.’

However, days later, she recalled feeling ‘nothing’ when looking at her daughter and developed postnatal depression. The actress then turned to drinking.

She said: ‘I turned to wine, which ultimately ended up leading to an alcohol dependency. It was how I would get through each day.’

Although she underwent treatment, Panettiere felt the ‘root cause’ of her drinking, the depression, was not addressed.

‘I wish more people had known what it was at the time. Maybe I wouldn’t have waited so long to get help,’ she said. 

Six years on from giving up custody, Panettiere spoke about her current relationship with her daughter. 

She said: ‘I love my daughter, and I’m so proud of the young woman she is becoming. I talk to her all the time, and I feel so connected to her. She’s like a mini-me.’

The actress went on to say she had ‘been able to put her first no matter how I’ve felt or what I’ve experienced’ and that she hoped that one day Kaya would ‘understand my story and why I wasn’t able to be with her all the time’.

She then called herself ‘resilient’ and a ‘work in progress’, but that she was ‘doing the work… and doing my best’.

In May, Panettiere released her memoir titled This Is Me: A Reckoning, in which she also detailed being separated from her only child.

‘Not being under the same roof with her every day has been the most gut-wrenching experience of my life, and it’s hard to describe the layers of emotion – including sadness, resentment, and anger – I’ve felt because of it,’ she wrote.

‘I grieve that I’m not the mother I thought I’d be and definitely not the mother I want to be (trust me, no one should ever have to raise a child on FaceTime), and although I miss Kaya so much my heart aches, I know how blessed I am to be her mom.

‘She is the greatest gift of my life, with all the best parts of her father and me.’

As the fourth week of the Massachusetts mother’s trial gets underway, financial support has been building up for her parents, who have stood by their daughter amid accusations that she ended the lives of her three children.

Clancy has confessed to the horrific act of strangling her young children—Cora, just five, Dawson, three, and eight-month-old Callan. She is now facing charges of first-degree murder on three counts.

The defense argues that Clancy’s culpability is diminished by her postpartum psychosis along with other mental health disorders, which were exacerbated by multiple medications she was taking at the time of these tragic events.

POSTPARTUM MOM LINDSAY CLANCY ON TRIAL FOR MURDER BRINGS COURT TO A HALT WITH SUDDEN BREAKDOWN

Funds for the Musgrove Family, Clancy’s mother and father Paula and Mike Musgrove, have surpassed $830,000 with an end goal of $2 million. The fund appears to have been created six days ago.

The fundraiser says the money is intended solely for Clancy’s parents who, “have spent years absorbing the travel, lodging, and living costs required to remain close to their daughter, drawing down savings they spent a lifetime building,” the page says.

The Musgroves have stood by their daughter’s side throughout the case; if convicted Clancy faces life in prison without possibility of parole.

“Nothing about this fund asks anyone to share their view of Lindsay or the criminal case. It asks donors to recognize the extraordinary financial burden her parents have carried simply by continuing to be present,” the page said.

Donors from around the world have contributed to the staggering fund, including one donor who said, “Sending love from Belize, Central America,” another who said, “Sending love from Australia,” and another from the UK who said “Sending support,” among tens of thousands more.

“The case will eventually reach its conclusion. Whatever that outcome is, Mike and Paula will still have to pick up the pieces of the lives they have put on hold to be there for their daughter. They should not have to face that future without the financial foundation they spent decades building.”

News Media has reached out to GoFundMe and the Plymouth County Prosecutor’s Office.

In a groundbreaking trend, individuals suffering from joint pain are setting aside traditional medications in favor of collagen supplements.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reports that nearly 20% of U.S. adults experience joint discomfort, often linked to conditions such as arthritis. Notably, arthritis—characterized by pain and limited mobility—remains a foremost contributor to work-related disabilities among adults.

Faced with this persistent pain, many typically reach for common pain relievers like ibuprofen. Yet, a growing number are turning to a novel solution believed to significantly alleviate their symptoms at a fraction of the cost—a product available for just $27 on Amazon.

In the past month alone, the NeoCell Grassfed Collagen Peptides have seen a surge in popularity, with thousands purchasing the product and sharing remarkable testimonials.

Collagen, an essential protein found naturally in our bodies, gradually diminishes over time. Serving as a fundamental component of skin, joints, bones, tendons, and ligaments, its significance cannot be overstated.

Kelly Candela, a registered dietitian and coach at Parsley Health, previously told The Post that collagen is like “the scaffolding that holds your body together.”

The NeoCell formula packs 10 grams of grass-fed collagen peptides into every serving and comes in a smooth, flavorless powder format that users say is easy to mix into drinks.

“At first I didn’t think much of it, but then I realized that the pain in my joints was …umm… kinda not there anymore. I waited for a while to see if it was a fluke or if it was just my imagination. But seriously, it’s been several weeks now that I no longer experience that burning coal-fire pain,” one user shared.

Beyond the reported joint pain benefits, several other users have reported increased nail growth, longer and healthier-looking hair and even more radiant skin.

The untimely passing of Hayden Panettiere at the age of 36 has left her fans and the entertainment world in mourning, as her life was a rollercoaster marked by addiction and many personal tribulations.

Just shy of her 37th birthday, which she would have celebrated on August 21, Panettiere was discovered unresponsive in a Greenville, South Carolina, apartment complex on Sunday. Authorities verified her death at the scene, suspected to result from an overdose.

Although local authorities and the coroner’s office are conducting a thorough investigation, initial findings have not shown any evidence of foul play or unusual circumstances surrounding her death.

The actress had traveled to South Carolina with her on-again, off-again partner, Brian Hickerson, a real estate agent with a history of abuse charges against her. The couple flew in from Los Angeles just the day before her tragic demise.

Panettiere leaves behind an 11-year-old daughter, Kaya, from her significant relationship with renowned boxer Wladimir Klitschko, aged 50.

The pair sparked up a romance in 2009, and even became engaged, before going their separate ways in 2018 following the actress’ public mental health battles.

The actress, who never married, had previously had a high-profile age-gap romance with her former Heroes co-star Milo Ventimiglia when she was 18 and he was 30 – with the star later blaming her inability to say ‘I love you’ as a catalyst for the split.

Her final romance was with Hickerson, who previously admitted to abusing her and was sentenced to 45 days in county jail – and served 13 days the following month –  after pleading no contest to two felony counts of injuring a spouse or girlfriend back in April 2021.

STEPHEN COLLETTI – 2006-2007 

Panettiere and the actor, now 40, hit it off as young stars on the rise in Hollywood, dating for almost two years from 2006-2007. 

At the time Panettiere was rising to fame in Heroes, while Colletti was starring in reality show Laguna Beach – before a starring role on One Tree Hill.

The actress spoke to Us Weekly in April about Colletti, saying: ‘I’m so grateful that he was part of my life, especially when he was. Because when I was with him was when I started having to deal with paparazzi and tabloids and being the focal point of them.

‘He was able to help guide me through that experience and getting used to that.

‘He never appeared to be or came off as a bad guy. So I knew that there was a way to protect yourself and put up boundaries without being offensive or rude.’

The pair broke up at the end of 2007, with Panettiere saying: ‘We just ended up going our separate ways, there wasn’t really a story there.’

‘We don’t keep in touch the way that I wish we did, because he’s such a great guy, but there was no drama.’

Colletti is now married to Alex Weaver, and they share one child. He has gone on to star in the last season of The Traitors as a Faithful.

MILO VENTIMIGLIA – 2007-2009

Panettiere and Ventimiglia’s friendship-turned-romance in 2007 raised eyebrows with the actress just 18 and Ventimiglia aged 30 at the time.

The pair were cast as Claire Bennet and Peter Petrelli in the NBC superhero drama as far back as early 2006.

‘I saw him as my partner and that it was going to hopefully keep going and evolving and lead to marriage,’ the actress said in her Us Weekly cover story earlier this year. 

‘But it was a point of contention that I was unable to put the “I” in front of “love you” and at the time, I didn’t realize or understand why it made me feel so uncomfortable. I could only say “love you” in a casual way. 

‘Being older, he was much more aware of what that meant. And that said a lot.’ 

‘Every relationship I’ve ever been in, I invested my whole self in. I saw him as my partner and that it was going to hopefully keep going and evolving and lead to marriage.

Looking back on her teenage romance with the actor earlier this year, Panettiere revealed motherhood had given her a new perspective on age-gap romances.

‘That’s hard. My daughter’s 11, so I’m trying to think of how I would feel. I’m sure she’s going to do exactly what Mommy did.

‘I’m ready and prepared for it, but I think it’s about the person. I was working with him all the time. My family knew him well. I was also … At 18, I lived so much life that he almost couldn’t count me as being 18. So Milo and I, even though he was 30, had a lot more in common than people might think.’

Ventimiglia, now 49, is now married to Jarah Mariano and the pair share two children.

WLADIMIR KLITSCHKO – 2009-2018 

Panettiere’s most enduring, and unlikely romance, began in 2008 when she met pro boxer Wladimir Klitschko at a party.

After her shock split from Ventimiglia, she sparked up a relationship with Klitschko in 2009 and dated for two years before splitting in 2011. 

They reconciled in 2013 and she announced her engagement several months later in October 2013.

They welcomed their daughter Kaya in December 2014.   

‘He is just so over the moon,’ Panettiere said of Klitschko. ‘I’m lucky if I can get my hands on the kid. He’s like, “No, no, I got her.” Which is exactly what I thought he would be like.’

However, the couple’s relationship would hit turbulent waters after Panettiere’s mental health began to unravel after the birth of Kaya. 

Panettiere previously revealed that she had started abusing drugs and alcohol when she was just 15 years old – and that her addiction spiraled out of control while she was battling postpartum depression after Kaya’s birth – leading her to seek treatment when her baby was four months old.

She said at the time of her mental health battle: ‘It’s something a lot of women experience. When [you’re told] about postpartum depression you think it’s ‘I feel negative feelings towards my child, I want to injure or hurt my child.’

In 2018, following their split, Panettiere announced she had made the ‘difficult decision’ to sign full custody of her daughter to her ex. Kaya then moved to his native Ukraine. 

In her final interview in May, she spoke to Dear Momé about her choice, saying: ‘It wasn’t a decision I made lightly, nor was it a decision I even wanted to make. I was going through a really challenging time in my life.’ 

She told Jay Shetty on his On Purpose podcast in May: ‘I have been the one who sought it out, who was saying, ‘I desperately need help. I know this is going to look terrible, but I am. I cannot live like this anymore…

The idea that anybody would think that I would just give away my child and be OK with it is heartbreaking. It couldn’t be further from the truth…

‘It became this horrible cycle for years of battling depression and anxiety and alcoholism and substance abuse, and just me trying to find my way back.’

‘I love my daughter, and I’m so proud of the young woman she is becoming. I talk to her all the time, and I feel so connected to her. She’s like a mini-me.’

Discussing the prospect of bringing her daughter back, Panettiere insisted that she would not want to take her away from her ‘incredible’ life in Ukraine.

She said: ‘By the time I finally got healthy, I felt like it would have been unfair of me to, and selfish of me to try to pull her out of this life that she had been creating.

SCOTTY MCKNIGHT – 2011-2012

Panettiere dated New York Jets wide receiver Scotty McKnight, now 38, for more than a year following her breakup with Klitschko in 2011. 

She and McKnight ended their relationship in December 2012 and she was seen with Klitschko shortly afterwards.

McKnight is now in a relationship with partner Tayla Burke and the couple share three young children. 

BRIAN HICKERSON – 2018-2022 

Panettiere and Brian Hickerson had an on-again, off-again relationship from 2018 to 2022 that was marred by domestic violence incidents and arrests.

The actress was in the midst of her substance abuse issues when she started dating Hickerson, 37, shortly after she wrapped the sixth and final season of Nashville. 

Their relationship soon turned ugly when Hickerson was arrested in May 2019 after an incident with Panettiere. He was charged with domestic violence, and she received a protective order before the charges were dropped.

In July of 2020, he was arrested again in connection with eight charges of domestic violence. He entered a no-contest plea to a pair of felony counts of injuring a partner in 2021, and the rest of the charges were dropped. 

Hickerson was in jail for 13 days, and Panettiere put out a statement following the arrest saying she hoped she could serve as an example for others in a similar situation.

‘I am coming forward with the truth about what happened to me in the hope that my story will empower others in abusive relationships to get the help they need and deserve,’ she said at the time. ‘I am prepared to do my part to make sure this man never hurts anyone again.’

Panettiere told People that she continues to ‘feel the same way’ about the statement she put out two years ago.

‘None of it is OK,’ she said. ‘But I want to make sure that everybody knows that each person who goes through something like that, they’re on their own journey. No two things are exactly alike.’

Panettiere also spoke with the publication about an incident in which she and Hickerson got into a bar brawl with a group of revelers at a celebrity hotspot in Los Angeles in 2022. 

According to TMZ, Hickerson sparked the fight when he spat on a fellow patron at Sunset Marquis, which prompted the manager to throw everyone out of the establishment. 

However, a representative for Panettiere told People that Hickerson ‘made a comment to an individual about leaving the waitress a poor tip.’

Panettiere later said she was ‘trying to live in a place of understanding’ in regards to her history with Hickerson and the multiple domestic violence incidents he was charged with during their relationship.

‘I think [Brian] has done his time and was willing to get help. I think about the things I have done in my life that people forgave me for,’ she told People. ‘Making amends is a really important thing that you learn in treatment. And it gives you a lot of inner peace.’

It’s unclear when exactly they split, but Hickerson confirmed that they are ‘just friends’ and ‘absolutely not’ together anymore.

However, in recent years the pair appeared to have repaired their friendship and were spotted travelling together. 

After Panettiere recounted their terrifying relationship in memoir, This Is Me: A Reckoning, Hickerson in May unbelievably said he can still see a future with the star.

When asked by TMZ if he ever thinks about marrying the actress, he responded: ‘Yeah, of course… I hope so – she probably doesn’t think the same way.’

However, Hickerson acknowledged it was not healthy for the pair to resume a romantic relationship, adding: ‘I think that Hayden is one of the most talented people I’ve ever met in my life, and I would be an idiot not to walk away from her and let her flourish in her career. 

‘So, we probably wouldn’t be good together.’

Hickerson said the pair’s relationship had now evolved into friendship after they were seen at the airport together in March, but whined: ‘I miss Hayden every day.’

The actress later offered her response to Hickerson’s comments about marriage while talking to TMZ as she arrived to LAX airport.

When asked to offer her reaction, she simply replied with a small laugh, ‘I don’t think that’s going to happen,’ before making her way into the crowded airport. 

Despite his public declaration of affection, Hickerson also revealed there was one particular violent incident he wanted Panettiere to leave out of the book, but she ended up keeping it in. 

‘There’s a story where I was drunk, right? Hayden was standing across the room and I had a phone in my hand and I said, “Hayden I’ll give you 10 seconds to run as fast as you can before I throw it at you,”‘ he recalled.

‘Who wants to read something about themselves like that, right?’ he asked, before adding, ‘I did it. I did it.’

‘I went into such a dark place, man, drugs, alcohol,’ he recalled of their relationship. ‘Good God, almighty, she’s five foot two on paper, four foot 11 in real life. I mean, come on.’ 

‘Terrible thing I did to her,’ he added. 

Hickerson said he’s had a ‘couple of opportunities to apologize’ to his ex, adding, ‘You never lay hands on a woman. Bottom line.’

He also spoke about an incident that took place in 2020 when he was arrested on Valentine’s Day for allegedly punching her. He entered a plea of not guilty at the time.

‘I had a lot to drink, and I got physical with her, and I got arrested, spent the night in jail. That’s just what happens when you lay hands on women,’ he said. 

Panettiere also previously dated retired NFL wide receiver Scotty McKnight, Welsh TV presenter Steve Jones, singer Jesse McCartney, The Hills alum Stephen Colletti and the late Pink Taco founder Harry Morton. 

On Monday it was announced that Panettiere, best known for her roles in Heroes and Nashville, has died aged 36 with police saying there were ‘no signs of foul play’.

The star began acting as a child, appearing in soap operas then gaining wider recognition for her role in the 2000 sports drama Remember The Titans with Denzel Washington, and as the voice of Dot in Pixar’s 1998 film A Bug’s Life.

Panettiere later found fame playing cheerleader Claire Bennet in the superhero drama Heroes before starring as country singer Juliette Barnes for six seasons on Nashville.

She earned two Golden Globe nominations for best supporting actress on the show, while her singing produced 11 entries on the US Billboard Hot Country Songs charts.

Panettiere’s film credits include 2006’s Bring It On: All Or Nothing, comedy-drama film Raising Helen, and appearances in Scream 4 and Scream VI as Kirby Reed.

On Monday, a spokesman for City of Greenville Police told the Daily Mail: ‘On August 16, 2026, at approximately 1.51pm, officers from the Greenville Police Department, accompanied by EMS personnel, responded to a report of an unresponsive female at Judson Mill Lofts, located at 701 Easley Bridge Road.

‘Upon arrival, medical assistance was administered; however, the individual, later identified as Hayden Panettiere, was pronounced deceased at the scene.

‘The case is under investigation by the Greenville Police Department in conjunction with the Greenville County Coroner’s Office.

‘The preliminary investigation has not indicated any signs of foul play or suspicious circumstances. An acquaintance of Ms Panettiere placed the 911 call. At this time, no further details are available for release.’ 

Earlier, a representative for Panettiere confirmed the death, saying her family would remember her as an ‘incredible light’ who brought ‘immeasurable love and joy to all who knew her.’ 

In Massachusetts, ICE agents captured an illegal alien, wanted for a severe murder charge in Brazil, just days before Democratic Governor Maura Healey enacted legislation restricting specific ICE operations within the state.

Maycon Souto Dos Reis, aged 54, was found guilty of aggravated murder in Brazil on September 14, 2024. He received a 14-year, three-month prison sentence following the issuance of an arrest warrant. Fleeing Brazil, the Brazilian national illegally entered the U.S. via the Mexican border in June 2024. Initially detained, he was later released into the country under then-President Joe Biden’s border policy, according to ICE reports.

In a statement, acting ICE Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) Boston Field Office Director David Wesling expressed concern, saying, “This case exemplifies how the media sometimes wrongly labels many of these individuals as non-criminals. In reality, they include murderers, sexual predators, gang affiliates, and more, who simply lack a U.S. criminal record.”

“We will continue to pursue these dangerous criminal aliens that sanctuary politicians fight to protect.”

The timing of the Aug. 3 Boston-area arrest corresponded to Healey’s Aug. 5 signing of the PROTECT Act, which keeps ICE out of courthouses, schools, child care centers, hospitals and healthcare facilities, while also providing stronger protections for parents in case they are detained or deported, banning new 287(g) agreements and allowing civil rights claims to be made against government officials, including ICE agents.

“The PROTECT Act is the strongest law in the country to protect people from ICE, because no one should be afraid to send their child to school, seek medical care or fear reporting a crime or appearing in court,” Healey wrote Aug. 5 in a statement announcing the signing of the new restrictions on ICE operations in her state.

“It makes us all less safe. So we are getting ICE out of our courthouses, schools and hospitals. This bill is a testament to the hard work and advocacy of so many people across our state. We’re going to keep working together to make Massachusetts and this country the place we all want it to be.”

Dos Reis initially came to ERO Boston’s attention following his May 29 arrest for unlicensed operation of a motor vehicle in Southborough, Massachusetts.

ICE officers arrested him Aug. 3 during a targeted operation at Westborough District Court in Westborough.

ICE officials said Dos Reis had been living in Massachusetts, which has been at the center of clashes between state and federal officials over immigration enforcement. The agency characterized the jurisdiction as one where local policies can complicate federal efforts to locate and arrest immigration offenders.

ICE did not provide additional details about the aggravated murder case in Brazil, including when the killing occurred or the circumstances surrounding Dos Reis’ conviction.

He remains in ICE custody pending the outcome of deportation proceedings, the agency said.

“DHS’s message is clear: If you come to our country illegally and break our laws, we will find you, arrest you, and you will never return,” ICE wrote in a release Monday, hailing President Donald Trump and DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin’s actions to protect legal American citizens.

“Under President Trump and Secretary Mullin, criminal illegal aliens are not welcome in the United States.”

In a tragic turn of events reported on Monday morning, the entertainment world has lost actress Hayden Panettiere at the age of 36. Widely recognized for her roles in popular network television series and films since her debut as a child star, Panettiere’s passing on August 16 has left fans and colleagues mourning.

Earlier in 2023, Panettiere released her memoir, This Is Me: A Reckoning, shedding light on her personal struggles with industry exploitation, maintaining sobriety, and the challenging facets of her career in Hollywood. Despite her young age, Panettiere boasted an expansive career, featuring more than 100 episodes across various TV shows. Tributes have poured in from co-stars like Viola Davis, David Arquette, and Melissa Barrera, who shared heartfelt messages and memories on social media. With her untimely departure, many fans are expected to revisit her acclaimed projects as a testament to her remarkable talent.

Panettiere’s prominence skyrocketed with her role as Claire Bennet in the NBC superhero drama Heroes, where she portrayed a cheerleader with incredible regenerative powers. Following this, she captivated audiences as country singer Juliette Barnes on ABC’s Nashville, showcasing her vocal prowess. Both series are currently available on Netflix among other budget-friendly streaming services, offering fans a chance to relive her standout performances. Beyond these shows, she forged a memorable presence in a celebrated slasher franchise and participated in numerous family films, cementing her status as a beloved TV star.

Below, we’ve curated a chronological list celebrating some of Panettiere’s finest and renowned works, alongside details on where to stream them.
