Sean Strickland forcibly removed from UFC White House event by Secret Service UFC Middleweight Champion Sean Strickland was removed from the UFC Freedom 250 Fan Fest at the Ellipse in Washington, D.C., after showing up despite claiming he had been excluded from the White House event.  Strickland later clarified on Instagram that he was not arrested but suggested he might face a disorderly conduct charge, which in D.C. carries penalties of up to 90 days in jail or a $500 fine.  His presence drew immediate hostility from the pro-Trump crowd, with chants of “USA” erupting before Secret Service agents escorted him out. Strickland had been vocal in the weeks leading up to the event, insisting that his exclusion was politically motivated due to his outspoken criticism of Trump’s ties to Israel and Jeffrey Epstein.  He mocked the event online, even parodying a famous photo of Trump at the Western Wall.

 Ex-MLB pitcher gets life without parole for killing in-laws

 Former MLB pitcher Daniel Serafini was sentenced Friday to life in prison without parole for the 2021 shooting of his wife’s parents during a burglary at their Lake Tahoe home.

Serafini, 51, was convicted in July 2025 of first-degree murder for killing his father-in-law, Gary Spohr, attempted murder for wounding his mother-in-law, Wendy Wood, and first-degree burglary. Wood survived the initial attack but died a year later.

Placer County District Attorney Morgan Gire said the victims were “loving grandparents” and that Serafini’s actions had a profound impact on the family and the community. “The impact of this attack has extended far beyond the immediate victims, deeply affecting family members and the broader community, and highlighting the lasting harm caused by deliberate violence,” Gire said.

During the sentencing hearing, Serafini maintained his innocence, telling the court he was out with his wife the night of the shooting and describing himself as a “broken, imperfect man that makes mistakes.” His attorney did not comment following the sentencing.

Serafini, drafted by the Minnesota Twins in 1992, played 11 years in Major League Baseball with teams including the Chicago Cubs, San Diego Padres, Pittsburgh Pirates, Cincinnati Reds, and Colorado Rockies.

Prosecutors presented evidence that Serafini harbored hostility toward his wife’s parents, including statements suggesting he would pay $20,000 to have them killed, along with angry emails and text messages exchanged with the couple. His defense argued there was no physical evidence linking him to the crime scene and claimed he lacked a motive to commit the killings.

After his conviction, Serafini filed multiple motions for a new trial, all of which were denied. He will serve his sentence in the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation.
