Crime Wire Weekly 7/17/26 | Louisiana Landfill Search, Texts Tirades & Wedding Scams

We kick things off with a desperate landfill search for a missing Louisiana teen to a Nevada man who allegedly murdered his ex and left custody papers behind as a final message. In Ohio a woman whose mugshot says more than words ever could, a New Jersey sheriff now facing charges in the heartbreaking deaths of two K-9 officers, and a Florida man allegedly tried to set his wife on fire.

An ex-con retaliated violently after his girlfriend insulted him about an erection, a wedding venue owner accused of stealing over a million dollars from couples, and an Indiana man cut off his own genitals in an attempt to start a fire.

We also cover a Pinellas County woman’s epic text tirade that led straight to her arrest, a Georgia man sentenced after mutilating his own eyes, a kidnapper who hid a teen in a dryer, and a Kentucky husband who allegedly kept his wife’s body in a freezer for nearly six months. Plus, our True Crime Time Machine takes us back to the execution of John Joubert, and International Indiscretions examines a tragic case involving an Argentine flight instructor.
