He enters a home and hears what clearly sounds like his wife in the bedroom with another man. He arms himself with a knife, bursts into the room and stabs 18-year-old Billy Floyd dead, injuring his own wife in the process. While she calls 911, Belk stuffs Floyd's body in the trash can. Oh, that'll work. Nancy, this isn't the first time Belk has had a run-in with a teen regarding his wife. A neighbor says she wasn't surprised to

hear about Belk's arrest because he once attacked her son. Belk's wife accused the then 16-year-old of looking at her inappropriately, so Belk attacked the boy in a grocery store. As for Billy Floyd, his family believes Belk's wife began grooming him at just 15 years old, and Belk had some idea she had a relationship with the boy, once threatening to kill him when he turned 18. Police have not confirmed if there's any truth to those statements or if Belk's wife will face any charges. Jonathan Belk, 41, charged with murder. Wisconsin police rushed to a Mount Pleasant home after they get a short 911 call from a child saying, mommy's being bad. She needs to go to jail. When they get there, the four-year-old explains he called 911 because his mom ate all the ice cream,

but he doesn't want her to go to jail. Sounds like the victim's refusing to file a report. The officers explain 911 is only for real emergencies, but police surprise the tot the next day with some ice cream. And they don't cuff mommy. More crime and justice news after this.

In a startling development from Hollywood, a director known for his work on the film 47 Ronin has been arrested on charges of defrauding Netflix out of millions intended for a new sci-fi series. Here's our Sydney Sumner with more. Carl Eric Rensch, a 47-year-old filmmaker, has now been taken into custody in West Hollywood.

Federal prosecutors allege that Rensch misappropriated $11 million from Netflix, funds that were earmarked for the production of a science fiction series titled White Horse, later renamed Conquest. In 2018, Netflix entered into a competitive bidding war for the project, ultimately agreeing to a $70 million deal. Rinch claimed to have filmed only one episode and requested additional funds to complete the series. Despite receiving these funds, he failed to deliver any episodes. Instead of advancing the production, Rentsch allegedly diverted the money into personal brokerage accounts. He engaged in speculative stock and cryptocurrency investments, losing approximately half of the $11 million within two months. The remaining funds were reportedly spent

on personal luxuries, including five Rolls Royces, a Ferrari, and over $3 million on furniture and antiques. Wrench appeared in a Los Angeles federal courtroom dressed in a turtleneck sweater and jeans, with his hands and legs shackled. He did not enter a plea and spoke only to acknowledge his understanding of the charges. U.S. Magistrate Judge Pedro Castillo ordered his release on a $100,000 bond, pending further proceedings in New York, where the indictment was filed. Netflix has declined to comment on the ongoing case.
