Grim Discovery After Family’s Private Plane Disappears

Four bodies have been recovered after a private plane carrying a Florida family home from a weekend trip to the Bahamas vanished Monday. Mario Lamar, 80, was piloting the plane with his wife, Lili Lamar, 79, and the couple’s grandchildren, Sofia Sosa, 28, and Christian Sosa, 22, were on board. The family reportedly went on a Labor Day weekend trip to their vacation home in the Bahamas and, while heading back to Florida, the five-seater PA-34 Piper aircraft and its passengers “vanished” near North Andros Island. The siblings’ father headed to the Bahamas after hearing about a possible crash and began his own search, along with the children’s uncle and two other brothers. All four bodies have been recovered, and the family spokesperson Silvia Larrieu issued a statement Tuesday to the Miami Herald, saying the family had to bring their deceased loved ones back to the U.S aboard their own vessels. “The search and recovery mission was conducted alongside family members and civilians who answered our call for help. … We are deeply grateful to everyone who supported us, searched alongside us, and kept our family in their prayers. We respectfully ask for privacy as we mourn this unimaginable loss.”

Lindsay Clancy’s defense attorney has sensationally asked President Donald Trump to pardon his client on Tuesday. Clancy was tried in a highly publicized case for the killing of her three children—Cora, 5, Dawson, 3 and Callan, 8 months. The judge declared a mistrial due to one hung juror refusing to agree with the rest that Clancy was mentally unwell during the killings and her suicide attempt. Clancy’s lawyer Kevin Reddington issued his plea to Trump on ABC to “consider this young lady, the type of person she is and consider a pardon.” However, the anchor promptly corrected Reddington, as Clancy hasn’t been convicted of a crime and is facing state charges. The president can pardon federal offenses at any time—before charges, during a trial, after a mistrial, or after a conviction—but has virtually no control over state crimes, according to the American Bar Association. The attorney concluded his interview with a response to those who think Clancy is “evil.” “These people don’t understand… They didn’t see the text she sent her mother in October, saying ‘Mommy can you please come? I’m sick. Something’s wrong.’ She kept saying, ‘I am not good, I am not well,’ and it was ignored,” Reddington said.

A passenger aboard a luxury cruise died during the 12-night European excursion. The passenger, whose identity has not been revealed, was brought ashore from the Regent’s Seven Seas Voyager at the Port of Greencastle in County Donegal in Ireland on Aug. 28. Ireland’s national police and security force said the death was due to a medical emergency and not subject to a criminal investigation. A spokesperson for Foyle Port, where the ship was docked, said the individual would “be transferred to Letterkenny [University] Hospital,” adding, “It was all organized by the ship’s agent and dealt with by the Garda in accordance with Irish regulations.” The Seven Seas Voyager departed from Reykjavik, Iceland, for a 12-night trip ending in Southampton, England. The route included stops in Iceland, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Ireland. Go Visit Inishowen, a local tourism agency in Ireland, said in a statement: “Sadly, we understand that a passenger has passed away. Our thoughts are with their family and loved ones at this difficult time.”

A desperate search is underway after a small plane carrying four family members vanished while flying from the Bahamas to Florida. On board were 80-year-old pilot Mario Lamar, his wife Lili Lamar, and their grandchildren, Christian Sosa, 22, and Sofi Sosa, 28, family member Silvi Larrieu told CNN. Lamar has more than 40 years of flying experience. The five-seat Piper PA-34 left Great Harbour Cay at about 11:12 a.m. Monday, bound for Opa-locka in Florida. Air traffic controllers lost contact roughly 13 miles west of Andros Island. Authorities were alerted to the missing plane at around 2:20 p.m, with police receiving a report that the plane “may have gone down in the waters off Red Bays,” the Royal Bahamas Police Force said. Flight tracking showed the plane circling near the coast before disappearing. Heavy thunderstorms were reported in the area. The family urged anyone with information about the plane, its occupants, or possible distress signals to contact authorities immediately. “Whether it’s by plane, by boat, any signs that you’ve noticed, to help us find them and bring them back alive,” Larrieu said.

You don’t have to have a backyard villa to elevate your backyard space with Hanso Home’s new-and-improved pergola. Although the pergola does not come assembled (you can also hire their team to assemble it for you for an additional fee), it is easy to self-assemble with two people in two to four hours, which is one of the reasons that it’s a top choice for U.S. renovation contractors—along with the fact that adding a premium pergola to your yard can increase your home’s value by an average of $27,000, according to the brand. Best of all, the Fifth-Generation Hanso Horizon Smart Pergola is built to last for at least 30 years and is backed by a ten-year warranty.

A plane passenger has been found with a crocodile head in his bag. Authorities found the Italian man with the dried cranium of an endangered croc at Caselle Airport in Turin after he arrived from Miami via Istanbul. Italy’s financial police squad said in a statement that the head had been wrapped in brown paper in a bid to conceal it from authorities. After the head’s seizure, the man—who has not been named—became the subject of an investigation on suspicion of smuggling a specimen from an endangered species, The Guardian reports. “The item was seized because it had been imported without the required certificate or license,” police said. The man could face a fine of between the equivalent of $23,000 and $230,000 if he is found to be in breach of the Washington Convention and convicted. The convention was signed in 1973 to reduce the international trade of rare animals and plants.

Two thieves made off with paintings believed to be worth millions during a heist at a French museum. The suspects broke into the Renoir Museum in Cagnes-sur-Mer after cutting through a chain-link fence and making their way through the museum’s garden into the building. Once inside, the pair stole four paintings but abandoned two as they made their escape. Cagnes-sur-Mer Mayor Bryan Masson told reporters at the scene that the art was thought to be worth an estimated €9 million ($10.4 million.) However, it is unclear whether this estimate is for all four paintings or just the two that were taken. Masson added that the thieves were a “well-equipped and apparently well-informed team,” and had escaped before police arrived when the museum’s security alarms were triggered. France has seen several high-profile museum thefts. In October 2025, a gang broke into the Louvre and made off with eight priceless crown jewels during a brazen morning raid at the world’s most visited museum. A woman was also charged with allegedly stealing six gold nuggets from Paris’s Museum of Natural History last September.

An unidentified climber fell to his death from a steep mountain in a remote South Aspen location on Sunday. Other climbers witnessed the fall, and one quickly tried to reach the fallen climber in case there was a chance of survival. Rebecca Rees, one of the hikers who witnessed the fatal accident, posted about it on Facebook. She said that although he couldn’t be saved, at least he wasn’t alone. “Unfortunately, we witnessed the event. It has been an extremely sad and terrible afternoon for all involved. He did not survive,” she posted on Facebook. With an elevation of over 14,000 feet, Castle Peak was the scene of the tragedy. The sheriff’s office got the call at 4 p.m., and the 21-person Mountain Rescue Aspen team reached 13,000 feet to recover the deceased climber by 8 p.m, despite the remote location. “The response of search and rescue, the sheriff, and the coroner all made us feel like every single person matters. This young man had a story, and we all care,” she concluded.

A third person has died during this year’s Burning Man festival in Black Rock City, Nevada. The festivalgoer died on Monday while on the way to a hospital in Reno, Nevada, about 120 miles north of the festival grounds. The person has not been identified, and the cause of death has not been revealed. “Although we average 1 death a year at the Festival, we have had two so far this year within the confines of the Festival and I have received information regarding a third who died in transit to a hospital in Reno,” Jerry Allen, Pershing County sheriff and coroner, said in a statement. On Friday, Sampson Tshombe, a man in his mid-50s, died after suffering a medical emergency on site. On Saturday, Craig Mann, 60, was also found dead by campmates around 3 p.m. His cause of death has not been revealed. The annual event, which celebrates community, self-expression and art, started on August 30 and concluded on Monday.

New footage has revealed fresh details of the horror that unfolded when an Amazon cargo jet crashed at Miami International Airport over the weekend, killing five on board and injuring five others. NBC Miami obtained footage of the pilot of the Boeing 767-300 that overran the tarmac at the travel hub on Sunday. The aircraft slammed into vehicles and burst into flames before eventually coming to a rest. Olvin Henriquez, who was nearby with his family, shot the footage of the deadly aftermath. “It was shocking to witness all of that; then, unexpectedly, we saw the pilot jump out of the cockpit door and run for his life as the plane rapidly burst into flames,” he said. “My family and I quickly turned the car around, fearing the plane might explode violently.” The Federal Aviation Administration has confirmed it is investigating the incident. Amazon said it is cooperating fully with authorities. “We’re heartbroken to learn that five people lost their lives,” Kelly Nantel, a spokesperson for the e-commerce giant, said on Sunday. “Our deepest sympathies go out to the families, loved ones, and all those affected by this devastating loss.”

Five people have been injured after scaffolding and display screens collapsed at George Lucas’s Skywalker Ranch. Emergency services were called to Summit Skywalker Ranch in Nicasio, California, on Monday morning to report people being trapped under a stage. The site is separate from Lucas’s main base of operations on the ranch, and crews were preparing for an event when the collapse occurred in the upper campus area. One of those injured suffered a “very serious” head injury, with three men transported to local hospitals for treatment. One person was trapped under LCD screens at the site, meaning emergency crews had to use airbags to lift the collapsed structure and free them. The California Division of Occupational Safety and Health (Cal/OSHA) is investigating the cause. The Marin County Fire, the San Rafael Fire Department, and the Novato Fire Department were among the agencies that responded to the collapse. The Summit Skywalker Ranch is home to Lucasfilm’s sound design, mixing, and audio post-production facility, Skywalker Sound, used in the popular sci-fi franchise.
