Stephanie McMahon Announced as First Inductee For 2026 WWE Hall of Fame

WWE WrestlePalooza delivered one shock after another, but few moments topped The Undertaker stepping out to reveal a huge honor for Stephanie McMahon. Before the main event in Indianapolis, the arena went wild as Kid Rock’s “American Badass” hit and The Undertaker rode down on his motorcycle. Stephanie McMahon was standing at ringside when Taker approached her, microphone in hand. After joking about never sitting on the other side of the barricade and pointing out how Stephanie had been spotted at big events recently, he got to the real reason for his appearance. “Are you ready?” The Undertaker paused before announcing it was his honor to reveal Stephanie McMahon as the first inductee into the 2026 WWE Hall of Fame. The crowd erupted as the two hugged, and moments later WWE CEO Nick Khan joined in to congratulate her with a hug of his own. Stephanie’s induction will be the centerpiece of next year’s Hall of Fame ceremony, and with her career spanning decades as both an on-screen character and a powerful executive, the news felt like a full-circle moment. Fans are now waiting to see who else will be announced to join the 2026 class. What's your take on

The prolific paedophile who catfished young girls on Snapchat – Yahoo News UK

Ramazani Mwamba Fri 19 September 2025 at 4:38 pm UTC 2 min read -Credit:Greater Manchester Police 'Predatory' Stuart Latham posed as a 14-year-old boy to target dozens of young girls on Snapchat. The 22-year-old posed as a boy called Josh to target his victims, raping one 12-year-old and targeting hundreds of others. Stuart sometimes offered £200 for “nude” images and persuading others to send indecent images and videos before threatening to reveal them online if his victims did not do as he wished, Preston Crown Court heard. Unemployed Latham physically abused two youngsters and committed dozens of offences online against the other 37, the court heard – all aged between 12 and 15, who lived across the UK. Latham treated his activities as a job, spending day after day online at the home he shared with his parents in Wigan, detectives said. The defendant, who made no reaction as he was jailed, amassed around 4,000 indecent images, many from blackmailing his victims. He pleaded guilty at an earlier hearing to rape, blackmail and multiple counts of engaging in sexual communications, causing or engaging in sexual activity with a child, making and distributing indecent photographs and possessing extreme pornography.

New indictment for ex-Boston police sergeant charged with raping boy, 14

A grand jury has indicted a former Boston police sergeant on charges he raped a 14-year-old boy he met on a dating app, prosecutors said Friday. Paul Downey, a 57-year-old from West Roxbury, was previously charged in Boston Municipal Court, and a not guilty plea was entered on his behalf. The grand jury's indictment elevates the case to Suffolk Superior Court, where he's due next Friday to face the new counts of aggravated rape of a minor, sexual conduct with a child under 18 and electronic enticement of a child for sexual activity. Grand juries review prosecutors' allegations and decide whether or not the evidence is sufficient to bring charges. Resources for victims of sexual assault are available through the National Sexual Violence Resources Center and the National Sexual Assault Telephone Hotline at  800-656-4673 , and Massachusetts provides this list of statewide and resources for sexual assault survivors. Downey, who joined the force in 1991, was still with the Boston Police Department when he was first charged. Commissioner Michael Cox said at the time, in a statement, "These charges are obviously very troubling and our thoughts are with any alleged victims. We have faith in the Massachusetts State Police and the SCDAO

Snapchat Says Users Took a Trillion Selfies Last Year | Social Media Today

I don’t know what this says about the current generation, nor the impact that this could reflect in respect to behavioral and social norms. But today, Snapchat has shared a pretty mind-blowing new stat: “ Every Snap is a moment for self-expression, connection with friends, or sharing something that matters.  In 2024, that self-expression reached new heights:  Snapchatters created well over one trillion selfie Snaps, a testament to how our global community of over 930 million use our camera to communicate, play, and feel closer together.” Yes, “trillion,” with a “t”. Snapchatters created over a trillion selfies in the app in just one year. For context, Apple recently reported that  iPhone users took over 500 billion selfies last year. So Snapchat users took more than 2x the amount of selfies that all iPhone users did. Maybe that's an indicator that Android users are more vain, or at least, that a lot more Android users are using Snap. The data underlines the enduring popularity of Snapchat, and the connective value that it provides for users. Though at the same time, Snap has seemingly hit a growth roadblock in the U.S. and EU markets, with its daily user growth stalling in both

NY Teen Accused in “Sextortion” Scheme | 77 WABC

The Other Side of Midnight with Lionel By James Flippin September 18, 2025 © picture alliance/Matthias Balk/dpa/Sipa USA (Stony Point, NY) – Is this really how kids are making money these days? While it used to be that newspaper routes and mowing lawns was a way to make some extra cash… now it appears as though things have become more X-rated. And this is not a commentary on “Only Fans” or other similar websites. A Rockland County teenager now faces felony charges in what’s being described as a “sextortion” plot. Cops in Stony Point arrested a student who attended classes at Fieldstone Middle School — following a six-month investigation. Apparently a number of students also came forward with allegations. The claim is the teen contacted victims online and pretended to be a woman — then solicited private, sexually-explicit photos. Upon receipt of those photos, the teen would allegedly demand payment in the form of gift cards — or threaten to expose the explicit snaps. Fantino Depena is a father in Rockland County and told News 12 Westchester the incident is “shocking” and “horrible.” Cops have said the number of victims could be in the hundreds. During a Wednesday afternoon press
