A judge has acquitted former St. Louis police officer Jason Stockley of first-degree murder in the shooting of Anthony Lamar Smith in late 2011. The verdict over Smith's killing has been highly anticipated — and it prompted protests outside the courthouse.
Here's an overview of the case from St. Louis Public Radio:
"Stockley, 36, and his partner chased the 24-year-old Smith after a suspected drug deal in the Walnut Park West neighborhood, near the city's border with Jennings.
Not surprisingly, the photo—which shows Orlando Bloom's wife sporting nothing but a few strands of jewelry as she poses in front of the sea—got 125,000 likes on the model's account.

"Thinking about this beautiful soul today," Watts wrote alongside a photo of Ledger. "10 years ago he left this world. He was a true original. Heart always on his sleeve, with the most powerful charisma, strength, humor and talent. I will never forget his gentle spirit."
After Watts and Ledger's split in 2004, they both went on to start relationships with fellow actors, Liev Schreiber and Michelle Williams. Ledger began a relationship with Brokeback Mountain co-star Williams later on in 2004 and the duo welcomed a child, Matilda, in October 2005.
We just can't get enough of mid-length hair – from the lob to the Monica haircut, face-framing shapes seem to have us in a chokehold. Now the ‘midi flick’ is at the forefront of the trend for autumn and winter according to Tom Smith, hair stylist and Evo International creative director, who coined the term. And it's already going viral with over 42 billion views on TikTok to date.
Hitting the sweet spot between fluffy ‘90s supermodel hair and TikTok's viral ‘coastal grandmother’ aesthetic (think a Desperate Housewives pouffed up blow-dry) it's proving to be one of the most compelling haircuts of the season.

Some people know him as Dwayne Johnson. Others refer to him as The Rock. There are so many people who think these are two different people, that there is actually a meme about it.

Like if you didn’t know.” Of course, this has only caused further confusion for those trying to figure out what’s going on — much to the amusement of his fans who are purposefully out to troll.
