Mystery as couple die during vacation to paradise Caribbean island – with family saying their deaths were not murder or suicide

A Canadian couple was mysteriously found dead while vacationing in a Caribbean paradise island for the holidays, according to a devastated family member.

The bodies of Alain Noël, 56, and Christine Sauvé, 55, were discovered inside their rented vacation home in Villa Riva, Dominican Republic, on the night of December 25, Gilles Sauvé Jr., Christine’s brother, wrote in a heartbreaking Facebook post. 

The husband and wife, who share two children together, traveled from their home in Gatineau, a city in Quebec, to the popular Caribbean hotspot. 

It is unclear when they arrived there and when they were due to return home, but according to Gilles, his sister and brother-in-law died in their sleep. 

‘It is with great sadness that I announce the deaths of my sister Christine Sauvé and my brother-in-law Alain Noël, occurred in their sleep, on the night of December 25th to 26th,’ he wrote in a Facebook post alongside a selfie of the pair. 

Their cause of death is unknown, but Gilles believes ‘there was absolutely no suicide or murder’, he told CTV News. 

‘They were a very respected family, very close-knit, a really good family. They were loved by everyone and were planning to retire in the Dominican Republic with their new house,’ Gilles added. 

He told the outlet his family has to wait 10 to 30 days to receive autopsy results and to have their bodies returned to Quebec.

Hardworking boy, 17, died mysteriously while working at Nebraska hog farm owned by governor and run by his daughter… then officials frustrated his mom’s efforts to find out why

A teenager in Nebraska died under mysterious circumstances while working at a hog farm founded by the state’s governor and run by his daughter, with officials accused of neglecting a thorough investigation for his grieving mother.

Zach Panther, 17, was found dead six weeks after starting a job at Beaver Valley Pork farms in St. Edward, Nebraska – a tiny town with about 700 residents roughly two hours west of Omaha – last April 1.

The teen had been sealing cracks in a barn with chemical-laden spray foam before his supervisor found him on the floor, according to The New York Times.

Panther’s death was not seen by any other farm employees, and there were no signs of foul play.

Beaver Valley Pork is one of the hog operations linked to Pillen Family Farms, a family business that has owned or operated more than 100 farms across Nebraska.

The company was founded by state governor Jim Pillen in 1993. His daughter Sarah has been the co-chief executive of the business since January 2020, per her public LinkedIn profile.

Investigations by government agencies couldn’t determine how the 17-year-old died and were allegedly slowed down by mistakes and poor information sharing.

‘My son is dead,’ Justy Riggs-Panther, Zach’s mom, told the outlet. ‘There ought to be answers.’

After her son’s death, the sheriff and deputies from the Boone County Sheriff’s Office only allegedly examined the room where he died, and not much else.

The Nebraska farm allegedly blocked timely testing from the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), while a recommended blood test for spray foam chemicals was also disrupted when the lab accidentally destroyed the usable sample.

Sarah Pillen, the co-CEO of Pillen Family Farms, said the company had ‘fully cooperated’ with the investigation into Zach’s death.

She told OSHA of Zach’s death when it happened, which was marked down in the call log by an agency employee with notes including ‘had been foaming’, ‘insulation’, ‘head injury’ and ‘poss[ible] medical episode.’

‘While we share the frustration that some of the issues which led to his passing remain unanswered, we understand those investigations have been closed, and there have been no safety violations attributable to the workplace,’ she told The New York Times.

However, Sarah Pillen was accused of refusing entry to an OSHA industrial hygienist who came to inspect the farm.

‘We simply requested that OSHA follow our established biosecurity protocols,’ she said.

Fresh fears Texas serial killer could be on the loose as three more bodies pulled from bayous

Fears of a Texas serial killer resurfaced in Houston after three more bodies were recovered from the city’s bayous this week.

The latest discoveries bring the number of bodies found in the waterways in 2025 to at least 34, according to KTRK, just one less than last year’s total.

Authorities have repeatedly denied that the high figure is the work of a mystery murderer, as terrified locals have demanded answers.

On Monday, a body was found in the Buffalo Bayou near the 100 block of Crawford Street, per Houston Public Media.

The deceased was recovered after someone spotted a body in the water and called 911, bringing a response from the Houston Police Department’s dive team.

That same day, another body was found near the Brays Bayou at the intersection of Texas Spur 5 and Old Spanish Trail.

The person was found on Christmas Eve in the Buffalo Bayou around 3500 Memorial Parkway, Houston police said on X.

Since 2017, at least 198 dead bodies have been found in Houston’s bayous, per Harris County Medical Examiner’s Office records obtained by KPRC 2.

Epstein’s chilling words rejecting suicide days before he died in jail

Jeffrey Epstein denied that he would commit suicide days before dying alone in his jail cell, according to the latest batch of files released about the dead pedophile.

Documents from the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York, where Epstein was being held ahead of his trial on sex trafficking charges, reveal new details about Epstein’s ‘possible suicide attempt’ in the early hours of July 23, 2019.

The disgraced financier was found dead in his New York prison cell on August 10, with his death officially ruled a suicide.

But notes from his time in custody indicate that Epstein rejected the idea that he would ever kill himself – apparently, for faith-related motives.

‘He said he is Jewish and he said in his religion suicide is against the religion,’ per an August 1 suicide risk assessment from the Bureau of Prisons psychology services, which was released earlier this week as part of the eighth set of the Epstein files.

Other notes from prison said that Epstein ‘denied current suicidal or self harm ideation.’

‘I’m a coward,’ he was quoted as saying on July 27.

Epstein also added that he ‘does not like pain and even does not like when he has to give blood.’

As part of the latest batch of Epstein files, detailed records were released in relation to the convicted sex offender’s supposed suicide attempt in the Special Housing Unit at the Metropolitan Correction Center in New York. 

Notes from a ‘clinical intervention’ on July 27 said Epstein claimed he could not remember the incident.

‘He stated he is anxious about going back to SHU because he stated he is going back to a place where he had gotten marks on his neck and he does not know why it happened,’ the report said.

Epstein was described as being in a ‘neutral mood’ with ‘logical and coherent’ speech.

He said he had an appetite, but complained about feeling dehydrated and not getting enough sleep.

The assessment concluded that Epstein was ‘future oriented’ and ‘does not appear to be an immediate danger to self.’

According to the notes, Epstein was regularly observed by the prison’s psychology services while in custody.

‘Hit Squad’: The Dawn Sturgess Inquiry Coverup

On December 4th, a long-running Inquiry into the mysterious July 2018 death of Dawn Sturgess delivered its final report. To the surprise of surely no one, it concluded Sturgess was contaminated with Novichok as a result of the attempted assassination of GRU defector Sergei Skripal in Salisbury by Russian intelligence operatives, directed by Vladimir Putin, four months earlier. While the mainstream media unquestioningly accepted the findings as unchallengeable gospel, evidence heard and produced throughout the Inquiry raised considerably more questions than it provided answers.

Sturgess’ death, many miles away from Salisbury, was a puzzling coda to the already enigmatic poisonings of Sergei Skripal and his daughter Yulia in March 2018. She is the only person in history known to have died from coming into contact with Novichok, despite the substance being the most lethal nerve agent known to man, and Russian intelligence repeatedly using it to strike targets – purportedly. Her boyfriend Charlie Rowley allegedly gifted her a bottle of Novichok disguised as perfume, which he found – when and where, he seemingly doesn’t know.

Despite apparently spraying the substance on his hands, then wiping it on his jeans, Rowley didn’t die. He was hospitalised unconscious on June 30th 2018, hours after Sturgess collapsed, having unwittingly contaminated herself with Novichok. Or so British authorities would have us believe. Rowley awoke on July 10th, two days after Sturgess’ death. Inexplicably, he was one of many absolutely key witnesses the Inquiry neglected to call to testify. Then again, the process was a flagrant whitewash farce from start to finish.

Under English law, a coroner’s inquest should typically be completed within six to nine months of an individual’s passing. However, as independent journalist John Helmer has extensively documented, British authorities were suspiciously resistant to convening one for Sturgess. It was only after intense legal battles between Sturgess’ family and the government that an Inquiry was instituted. Unlike inquests, which have sweeping legal powers, inquiries are little more than flaccid public relations exercises. Those interviewed and evidence considered was strictly limited, by state decree.

This fudge conveniently prevented British intelligence agencies from scrutiny – an astonishing shortfall, given much of the Inquiry focused on the supposed link between the poisonings of the Skripals and Sturgess’ death. Inquiry chief Anthony Hughes, a former Supreme Court judge, concluded the Skripals’ alleged GRU assassins, Alexander Petrov and Ruslan Boshirov, “brought with them to Salisbury” Novichok secreted in a perfume bottle. He added, “it was probably [emphasis added] this bottle that they used to apply poison to the door handle of Sergei Skripal’s house”.

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.

Epstein Claimed Cellmate Tried TO MURDER HIM Weeks Before Suspicious Death

Newly released documents from the Epstein files are shedding light on the paedophile financier’s final weeks, where he accused his cellmate of attempting to murder him, fueling long-held suspicions of foul play.

The revelations come amid the Trump DOJ’s transparency push, exposing details that challenge the official suicide narrative and point to potential cover-ups in the deep state’s handling of the case.

The Telegraph notes, “Jeffrey Epstein claimed his cellmate tried to murder him in the weeks before his death, newly released documents say,” adding “The notes from prison officers also record an apparent attempt by the paedophile financier to take his own life around the same time.”

These prison records detail Epstein’s claims of waking up with marks around his neck that he couldn’t explain, raising questions about whether the incident was a botched suicide or something more sinister.

Top Libyan General Confirmed Killed In Mysterious Private Jet Crash Departing Turkey

Tripoli has confirmed that the private jet which went down earlier as it departed Ankara was carrying top military commanders of the Government of National Accord (GNA), which is the Libyan government ruling the western part of the country and supported by Turkey.

Tripoli’s Army Chief of Staff Mohammed Ali Ahmed al-Haddad has been confirmed killed in the crash. While Turkey has been slow to confirm details as the wreckage has only within the last hour been located, the GNA has announced the death.

Naturally – given the high profile nature of the delegation – there will be questions over whether this was an accident, sabotage, or possible bomb blast. Haddad and the government he represented are bitter enemies of Gen. Khalifa Haftar in eastern Libya, which is supported by Russia. Turkey has been supporting the rulers in Tripoli from the start, soon after longtime ruler Gaddafi was overthrown in the NATO-backed war of 2011.

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.
