A Florida woman accused of zipping her boyfriend in a suitcase and leaving him in there to suffocate was found guilty of murder on Friday, four years after what she had initially described to authorities as a case of drunken hide-and-seek gone wrong. She said that she had gone upstairs and passed out, and when she woke up, she realized Torres was still inside the suitcase. She said she "moved it around a little bit" while Torres was still inside the suitcase. In the video clips, Boone allegedly mocked Torres as he begged for help, NBC affiliate WESH of Daytona Beach reported. Boone said Torres began pushing on the suitcase and she feared he would get out.

Vice President Kamala Harris had also been in talks to do an interview with Rogan but it didn’t pan out.

☆ Groundbreaking telescope reveals first piece of new cosmic map

Astronomers have never detected dark matter, but they believe it makes up about 85% of the total matter in the universe. Meanwhile, the existence of dark energy helps researchers explain why the universe is expanding — and why that expansion is speeding up. A prime example is the European Space Agency’s wide-angle Euclid telescope that launched in 2023 to investigate the riddles of dark energy and dark matter. Euclid this week delivered the first piece of a cosmic map — containing about 100 million stars and galaxies — that will take six years to create. These stunning 3D observations may help scientists see how dark matter warps light and curves space across galaxies.
