The Nevada Board of Parole Commissioners has denied parole for ex-NFL player Henry Ruggs. Nearly five years ago, Ruggs killed a woman in a car crash in Las Vegas. Ruggs, a former Raiders wide receiver, drove his sports car at up to 156 mph and crashed into Tina Tintor's vehicle. Prosecutors said his blood-alcohol level was 0.16%. Ruggs pleaded guilty in May 2023 to felony DUI causing death and misdemeanor vehicular manslaughter. He was sentenced in August 2023 to three to 10 years in prison. Ruggs will face the parole board again before his August 2027 release date. His attorneys said Ruggs continues to feel sorrow over Tintor's death.

A federal judge has ruled that the man charged in the fatal stabbing of a Ukrainian refugee on a North Carolina train cannot currently stand trial due to mental illness. Decarlos Brown Jr.faces a federal charge related to the killing of Iryna Zarutska, which is punishable by death. On Tuesday, the judge ordered Brown to undergo up to four months of medical treatment to try to restore his competency. A forensic evaluation found Brown unable to understand the proceedings or assist in his defense. The judge will reassess Brown's competency after the treatment period.
