A Florida man convicted of killing his bride-to-be in 2020 is getting media attention again due to the bizarre motive behind the murder. Sixty-four-year-old Jerry Odum committed the crime nearly four years ago, but video footage of his interrogation has finally been released, during which he reveals his reason for killing the woman he supposedly loved.

A Florida woman is in trouble after she reportedly used dog pee for a court ordered drug test. Forty-eight-year-old Jessica Beatty had previously been arrested on possession of drug paraphernalia, and was ordered by the court to stay off of drugs and submit to urine tests.

When confronted about why she’d brought a sample into the facility instead of following the rules, Beatty folded and confessed to what she had planned. The Florida woman told staff that she’d collected dog pee from her aunt’s pet dog, as an attempt to avoid using her own urine d...
