Fears New York handyman is a serial killer as he’s charged with third murder… and cops warn there could be more victims

An upstate New York handyman who has already pleaded guilty to murdering two women is now feared to be a serial killer, as he was charged with a third homicide.

Richard Fox, 62, has been charged with second-degree murder for the death of 32-year-old Crystal Curthoys after her decomposed body was found in a home he once owned in Niagara Falls, WBKW reports.

The former handyman is already behind bars for the murders of 40-year-old Cassandra Watson in 2003 and 50-year-old Marquita Mull in 2021.

He had pleaded guilty to killing the two women and dumping their bodies off the path of Chautauqua Rails to Trails, near where he grew up.

Chautauqua County Sheriff James Quattrone said he now considers Fox to be a ‘serial killer,’ noting that there are still about two or three homicides in the New York county that remain unsolved.

‘I do believe that there [are] other victims,’ he said in September, when Fox was sentenced to 40 years to life in prison, according to WIVB.

‘We’re hopeful that Richard Fox will hopefully try to ease his conscience a little bit and give us some more information.’

Seth Rich Attorney Ty Clevenger Blasts FBI for “Nine-Year Coverup” — Accuses Bureau of Lying to Courts and Burying Evidence While Ignoring Court Orders

A lawyer closely tied to the long-running legal battle over the mysterious death of Seth Rich is accusing the federal government of an extraordinary, years-long coverup, one that he says mirrors the FBI’s handling of other politically explosive cases and exposes systemic corruption at the highest levels of federal law enforcement.

Ty Clevenger, an attorney who has spent years litigating Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) cases related to Seth Rich, issued a blistering public statement this week alleging that the FBI deliberately concealed records, lied to federal courts, and is now openly defying a court order to produce documents related to Rich’s case.

Clevenger’s remarks come amid renewed scrutiny of the FBI following revelations that the bureau effectively “buried” the January 6 pipe bomber investigation for years.

According to Clevenger, the FBI has been caught repeatedly lying to federal courts during eight years of FOIA litigation, hiding and misrepresenting records related to Seth Rich “on a massive scale.”

Even more alarming, Clevenger claims the FBI is currently defying a court order to turn over records, prompting a pending motion to hold the bureau in contempt of court.

Clevenger also blasted Republican lawmakers for their silence over the past nine years, naming names.

He pointed out that Rep. Thomas Massie has aggressively pursued the Epstein files but never publicly pressed on Seth Rich. Rep. Barry Loudermilk has led investigations into January 6 but, according to Clevenger, has ignored the Rich case entirely.

He then rattled off a list of prominent Republicans—Andy Biggs, Jim Jordan, Marjorie Taylor Greene, Chuck Grassley, Tim Burchett, and James Comer—asking whether any of them are even aware of what he calls an “ongoing FBI coverup.”

Former Minnesota Rep. Melissa Hortman’s Murder Is Now Very Suspect After Uncovering the Massive Fraud in Tim Walz’s State

The murder of former Minnesota House Speaker Melissa Hortman and her husband is very suspect since the massive scandal in Minnesota involving the state’s social programs was uncovered. 

It looks like Democrat Melissa Hortman knew she was in big trouble when she was the only Democrat to vote against Tim Walz’s healthcare for illegals bill in Minnesota. She cried as she shared her position and admitted to stepping outside the Democrat initiated corrupt fence. “It’s almost like she knew what would happen next.

The former Minnesota Representative was gunned down with her husband days later.  The DOJ reported the following after they arrested the alleged murderer of Minnesota’s former congresswoman.

Vance Boelter, 57, has been indicted on six federal charges in connection with the stalking and murders of Minnesota House of Representatives Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark Hortman, the stalking and shooting of Minnesota State Senator John Hoffman and his wife Yvette Hoffman, and the attempted shooting of their daughter Hope Hoffman, announced Acting U.S. Attorney Joseph H. Thompson.

“Vance Boelter planned and carried out a night of terror that shook Minnesota to its core,” said Acting U.S. Attorney Joseph H. Thompson. “He carried out targeted political assassinations the likes of which have never been seen in Minnesota. We grieve with the Hortman family and continue to pray for the recovery of the Hoffmans. Today, a grand jury indicted Boelter with the most serious of federal charges for these heinous political assassinations. Let me be clear: Boelter will see justice.”

According to court documents, after extensive research and planning, Boelter embarked on a murderous rampage targeting Minnesota’s elected officials and their families. On June 14, 2025, the defendant disguised himself as a member of law enforcement and traveled to the homes of Democratic elected officials with the intent to intimidate and murder. Early that morning, the defendant traveled to the Hoffmans home in Champlin, Minnesota. By posing as a police officer, Boelter compelled the Hoffmans to answer their door. He then repeatedly shot Senator Hoffman and Yvette Hoffman and he attempted to shoot their daughter, Hope Hoffman.

The Gateway Pundit reported that the suspect in the shooting, Vance Luther Boelter, 57, was appointed by Walz in 2019 to serve on the Governor’s Workforce Development Board, and he also leads an international security firm.

Trans Killer Mia Bailey, Who Gunned Down Parents in Same Utah Town Where Tyler Robinson was Raised, Converts to Islam Behind Bars – Requests Death Penalty, But Gets 25 Years to Life

Transgender double-murderer Mia Bailey, who executed his own parents last year, has converted to Islam while in custody and begged for the death penalty as “atonement,” instead a judge spared his life, sentencing the 30-year-old to 25 years to life instead.

Bailey, born Collin Troy Bailey, legally changed his name and sex in 2023 before unleashing a premeditated rampage on June 18, 2024.

Armed with a handgun, he broke into his parents’ Washington City home, fatally shooting Gail Bailey, 69, four times and Joseph Bailey, 70, twice in the head.

He then fired through a locked bedroom door at his brother Dustin and his wife, who miraculously escaped unharmed.

After fleeing, Bailey was captured following a 12-hour manhunt near a Mormon temple, confessing without remorse, “I would do it again. I hate them.”

Bailey was accused of assaulting two correctional officers in October 2024.

As the Gateway Pundit previously uncovered, oddly, Bailey was arrested just minutes away from the residence shared by Tyler Robinson, the 22-year-old accused of assassinating conservative icon Charlie Kirk, and his transgender partner, Lance Twiggs. Their parents also resided in the same town.

Robinson’s parents and Bailey’s parents both lived in Washington, Utah, approximately 5 minutes apart, in a small town of 27,993 people as of 2020.

Psychic Credited with Finding Critical Clue in Unsolved Chicago Hit-And-Run Case

A Chicago man searching for the person responsible for a hit-and-run accident that killed his mother received some surprising help in his quest for justice when a psychic pointed him in the direction of a critical clue. According to a local media report, Damion Martin’s mother, Tanja Safforld, passed away last November after being struck by a car that promptly fled the scene. A police investigation into the incident ultimately ground to a halt in March, leaving her son to pursue the matter on his own.

Taking to social media, Martin detailed the circumstances of his mother’s death and revisited the location of the hit-and-run in the hopes of finding someone who might provide new insight into the case. As luck would have it, he was soon contacted by a person who witnessed the accident and indicated that the vehicle in question was a gray sedan. This was particularly important because, during their investigation, police were under the impression that the car was black, which is undoubtedly why their search for the hit-and-run driver came up short. Martin managed to confirm the witness’s account after he received a rather wondrous message from an unexpected source.

“A psychic wrote me out of nowhere and said, ‘go check a blue and yellow sign,'” he recalled, explaining that he returned to the scene and quickly spotted a nearby car dealership that matched the description provided by the mysterious mystic. When shown the business’s security footage from the time of the accident, the witness was able to identify the specific car that struck Martin’s mother. While police have since issued a new community bulletin with a photo of the vehicle, her son expressed dismay that a year has passed since the incident, leaving the culprit plenty of time to cover their tracks.

Epstein’s brother’s wild claim that Trump authorized his murder is unearthed in DOJ files

Jeffrey Epstein‘s brother claimed that he believed Donald Trump authorized the murder of the notorious sex trafficker in 2019, according to the latest Epstein files release. 

A document in the cache of around 8,000 files released Tuesday included a tip that Epstein’s brother Mark sent to the FBI in 2023, making the claim about his brother’s death four years earlier. 

The tip read: ‘Jeffrey Epstein was murdered in his jail cell. I have reason to believe he was killed because he was about to name names. 

‘I believe President Trump authorized (his) murder.’ 

The document did not provide any details as to why Mark Epstein believed that Trump ‘authorized’ his brother’s death, which was ruled as a suicide.

Trump has never been formally accused of wrongdoing related to the sex trafficker’s death. 

The document was one of many in Tuesday’s release that delved into Epstein’s much-scrutinized death in his jail cell on August 10, 2019 in the Manhattan Correctional Center. 

In another document released by the DOJ was from just days before Epstein was found dead in his cell, Epstein wrote a sickening letter to serial child molester Larry Nassar, claiming that ‘our president’ loves ‘young, nubile girls.’ 

While he was not explicitly named in the note, Donald Trump was serving his first term in the White House at the time.

The Zodiac killer and Black Dahlia murderer were the SAME man: Explosive investigation unmasks single suspect behind two of America’s darkest murders

Two sadistic crimes that were the stuff of nightmares.

Two reigns of terror over California.

Two of the most notorious cases in history left unsolved for more than half a century.

But now, after all this time, one suspected killer is unmasked.

In a world exclusive, the Daily Mail can reveal that a new investigation has concluded that the Zodiac killer and the murderer of the Black Dahlia were the same man.

The FBI and California police departments are reviewing the explosive theory – and a trove of damning evidence has been unearthed by independent investigators and is undergoing forensic analysis.

If the evidence passes scrutiny, it would mean that two of the world’s biggest murder mysteries will finally be solved.

Between 1968 and 1969, the Zodiac killer terrorized northern California, murdering at least five victims while claiming to have slaughtered dozens more. The phantom taunted the media and police with letters and ciphers, daring the public to unravel his identity.

Two decades earlier in 1947, another slaying cast a shadow of fear over the state.

Aspiring Hollywood actress Elizabeth Short, who became known as the Black Dahlia, was found dead near a lovers’ lane in Los Angeles. Her body had been mutilated – severed clean in half at the waist, with a grotesque smile carved into her cheeks.

Now, after more than a half-century of mystery, countless law enforcement and amateur investigations, unsuccessful attempts to harness DNA testing, and the world’s brightest codebreaking minds left defeated, investigative consultant Alex Baber believes he has finally solved both cases.

Somali ‘Medicaid Mogul’ Accused Of Looting Maine Taxpayers, Family Allegedly Put Bounty On Reporter

If you thought the alleged Medicaid fraud in Minnesota by Somalis, which federal prosecutors say could reach $9 billion, was insane, wait until you read the latest report from The Maine Wire: the head of a local nonprofit is accused of lashing out at a local journalist over an investigation, while members of his family allegedly put a bounty on the head of a journalist in Somalia for sharing the reporting.

Earlier this month, Abdullahi Ali, the Executive Director of Health Services contractor Gateway Community Services, was accused of ripping off taxpayers.

NewsNation spoke with a whistleblower who spilled the beans: false records were filed for services that were never provided…

A former Gateway employee, Christopher Bernardini, said the nonprofit was reimbursed with tax dollars from Maine’s Medicaid program and later with federal tax dollars from the Paycheck Protection Program.

While heading up the nonprofit in Maine, Ali was also running for President of Jubbaland in Africa. He boasted to a Kenyan media outlet about how he helped raise funds for the Jubaland Somali army to buy guns and bullets.

Is Court Hiding Outrageous Psychiatric Drug “Treatment” by Sealing Medical Records of Nick Reiner?

Contrary to what has been reported, Rob and Michele Reiner’s vicious murder was always about mental illness and prescription psychiatric drugs. What isn’t known is whether alleged killer Nick Reiner’s attorney will expose the fraud of psychiatric diagnosing and the dangers associated with psychiatric drugs to save his client from a life of prison hell. It’s a heavy lift but, in the long run, may save some lives besides that of the murderous Nick Reiner.

Prominent high powered attorney Allen Jackson has reportedly been hired by the Reiner family to represent alleged killer, Nick Reiner. In the only press conference about his client, Jackson said, “there are very, very complex and serious issues that are associated with this case,” and “things need to be thoroughly but carefully dealt with and examined and looked at and analyzed.”

With the acknowledgement that Nick Reiner lived a life of mental illness and psychiatric drug use, there certainly are “complex and serious issues.” But the issues aren’t what most people think, including the killer’s own family.

It’s been reported that Nick had been in rehab at least 18 times between the age of 15 and 22. That means that if Nick spent just three months at each of the rehab facilities, he would have spent 216 out of 364 weeks in rehab over that seven-year period. In short, it appears that Nick spent at least 60% of his life in rehab during that seven-year stretch. It could be less or more time, but clearly, Nick’s life revolved around psychiatric intervention. But it didn’t start at 15 years old.

Based on years of dealing with children diagnosed and drugged by the psycho/pharma industry one can imagine what happened to Nick Reiner. In fact, it has been reported that Rob Reiner suffered from depression and even his daughter Romy has taken antidepressants for years. So, we see that the Reiner family embraced psychiatric intervention and certainly utilized it for son and brother Nick.

If one were able to review Nick’s entire mental health file, one might expect to see the first psychiatric intervention at around four or five with an ADHD diagnosis and a Ritalin prescription. From there one might see that Nick’s drug prescription would be tweaked, either increased or changed to a different drug or another drug added for, perhaps, anxiety being observed.

By the time Nick was in middle school, he may have been moved to antianxiety drugs and antidepressants and, maybe, even antipsychotics to treat his erratic explosive behavior. In the end, what one can probably assume in Nick’s case is a history of constantly altered psychiatric drug cocktails to treat his ever-increasing psychiatric diagnoses.

The problem, of course, is that Rob and Michele believed in what the mental health “experts” were selling and like so many unsuspecting parents did not understand the fraud of psychiatric diagnosing and the harm associated with the mind-altering drug “treatments,” especially on a developing brain.

Let’s consider the facts about psychiatric diagnosing. Not one of the mental disorders listed in the American Psychiatric Association’s Diagnostic and Statistical Manual (DSM) is based in science or medicine. In other words, there is no abnormality in the brain that is ADHD, depression, anxiety, bipolar or any other mental disorders. These are behaviors, not abnormalities of the brain. In fact, if there were an objective, confirmable abnormality in the brain, one would seek assistance from a neurologist not a psychiatrist.

So, understanding that there is no abnormality that is any psychiatric diagnosis, one must ask what exactly are the psychiatric drugs “treating?” The answer, of course, is the drugs aren’t “treating” anything. The prescription, like illegal, drugs are mind-altering and will change behavior. Whether those changes are helpful depends on many things. In Nick Reiner’s case, one might suggest that the prescription drug “treatments” were definitely not helping.

It is no secret that the prescribing physician/psychiatrist have no idea how a cocktail of psychiatric drugs “work” in the brain, as cocktails of drugs have never been subjected to clinical trials. What the psychiatric elixirs do to the brain is anyone’s guess, including the pharmaceutical companies that openly admit that they have no clue how the drugs “work” in the brain as “treatment” for any alleged mental disorder.

Fully aware that Nick Reiner was being “treated” for schizophrenia let’s consider what is known about the possible “treatment.”  Normally, the go-to psychiatric drug is an antipsychotic. The newer antipsychotics, like Risperdal, Seroquel and Zyprexa (olanzapine), reportedly affect the serotonin in the brain. And how do these drugs “work?” According to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) “the mechanism of action of olanzapine, as with other drugs having efficacy in schizophrenia, is unknown.”  Clueless.

Were Rob and Michele informed by their $70,000 a month psychiatrist that the FDA has no clue about how the drugs used as “treatment” for their son “work?”  But it gets worse. Whether it’s antidepressants for depression, antianxiety drugs like benzodiazepines, or stimulants like Ritalin, the pharmaceutical companies cannot explain how the drugs work as “treatment.” The mode/mechanism of action is “unknown.”

Knowing that prescribing extraordinarily expensive “experts” could not explain to the Reiner’s how the drugs being prescribed to their son “work” it gets worse when one considers the possible adverse effects of the “treatments.”

George W. Bush Institute Urges Americans to Sympathize with Afghans After D.C. National Guard Attack

Following the fatal shooting of one National Guard member and the injury of another in Washington, DC, the George W. Bush Institute is urging against broadly targeting Afghan immigration applicants in response to the actions of a single individual.

Rahmanullah Lakanwal, a 29-year-old Afghan national who previously worked with a CIA-backed partner force in Kandahar and entered the U.S. in 2021 through the Biden administration’s Operation Allies Welcome, has been arraigned and is facing charges in the Thanksgiving-week ambush-style shooting that left 20-year-old Spc. Sarah Beckstrom dead and critically injured 24-year-old Staff Sgt. Andrew Wolfe. 

Following the attack, U.S. immigration authorities announced an immediate and indefinite pause on immigration processing for Afghan nationals and launched a broad reexamination of immigration, asylum, and green card applications from 19 countries, including Afghanistan, Iran, Venezuela, Sudan, Haiti, Cuba, and Laos.

In response, the George W. Bush Institute posted on X: “The actions of a man charged with a heinous crime have derailed the lawful U.S. immigration applications of people from 18 countries so far, including Afghanistan. Afghans are facing uncertainty at home and in the U.S.

“Read why we can’t turn our back on Afghans and other immigrants due to one man’s crime: ”

The post linked to a full policy piece authored by Bush Institute directors Natalie Gonnella-Platts and Laura Collins.  The article begins by condemning the D.C. shooting as “unconscionable,” calling it an act of terrorism, hate, and barbaric violence that “has no place in any civilized society.” 

“Going back on our word to Afghans who helped us is contrary to our values as Americans,” the authors write. They assert that many of these individuals “risked their lives over the last two decades” working in partnership with U.S. forces and, despite undergoing years of vetting before arrival, are now facing disruptions due to the government’s response — including paused visa issuance, halted asylum decisions, and canceled naturalization ceremonies. 

“Asylum seekers may continue to have court hearings, but they won’t receive a determination on their cases,” the authors explain. They urge elected leaders to investigate “what, if anything, could have been done to prevent this tragedy” rather than targeting all Afghans. “The suspect will be held accountable for his crimes,” they write, “but this man is responsible for his actions, not all foreign-born people.” They add: “The innocent shouldn’t bear the burden of someone else’s crimes.”

The article paints a grim picture of life under Taliban rule, portraying Afghans as having seen their “daughters, sisters, mothers, and nieces erased from every facet of public life” and suffering “unimaginable” deprivation due to tyranny and corruption.

The authors contend many of the displaced “have been forced to flee their homeland, many now for a second time,” and continue to resist extremism even from abroad. Despite refugee status, they claim these individuals are “leading the way in seeking justice,” preserving cultural identity, and resisting Taliban indoctrination.
