​NEW Now you can listen to Fox News articles! A disturbing video shown in a Texas courtroom depicts the former FedEx driver, who admitted guilt in the killing of 7-year-old Athena Strand, switching between personalities—while his defense team pleads for sparing his life citing mental health challenges. Tanner Horner, 34, entered his guilty plea to the abduction and murder of Athena right before his trial was scheduled to start in Fort Worth this week. A jury will determine whether he receives a life sentence or the death penalty. Jurors have viewed several days of body camera footage and police interrogation videos showing Horner’s interactions with authorities after his arrest, as they deliberate on the death penalty. Defense attorney Lindsay Thompson has sought to portray Horner sympathetically by disclosing his autism diagnosis, brain damage, mental illness, and severe lead exposure. BODYCAM FOOTAGE REVEALS ATHENA STRAND’S KILLER, FEDEX DRIVER, SWITCH PERSONAS; CLAIMS DITCHING GIRL’S CLOTHES WAS ‘FUNNY’. In court on Thursday, haunting body camera footage showed Horner instructing officers to talk to his alter ego, whom he called “Zero.” In the video clip, the officer asked, “Hey Zero, when you took her, was she wearing a jacket or anything?” referring to Athena. Horner, responding as Zero, said, “No jacket, no shoes.” This sudden apparent personality shift occurred during Horner’s encounter with police, alarming Dr. Carole Lieberman, a forensic psychiatrist and expert trial witness. ATHENA STRAND’S KILLER FEDEX DRIVER TOLD POLICE HE ‘KIND OF TOSSED’ 7-YEAR-OLD’S BODY INTO WOODS, VIDEO SHOWS. The most striking aspect from a criminal profiling viewpoint is the multiple personas Horner has displayed in various situations, Lieberman told Fox News Digital. “He has appeared completely sane at times, yet he also claims to have a separate identity or alter ego, suggesting he may have been manipulative—like a malingerer or psychopath—on other occasions.” VIDEO: Athena Strand’s murderer admits he ‘just kind of tossed her’ into the woods. As the body camera footage kept rolling, jurors heard officials speak directly to Zero after discovering that the alter ego seemed more “helpful.”

​NEW Now you can listen to Fox News articles! MARSH HARBOUR, Bahamas – EXCLUSIVE: An overnight security guard at a boatyard on a Bahamian island came across American Brian Hooker after he washed ashore roughly eight hours following his wife’s disappearance into a dark, stormy sea last weekend. Edward Smith, employed at Marsh Harbour Boatyards—a boat storage and repair site in the tourist spot—was notified by a colleague that a man had staggered onto the premises, muttering about a key and a woman. The individual was 58-year-old Hooker, now detained in a Freeport, Bahamas jail, who claimed his wife, Lynette Hooker, fell from their dinghy as they motored back to their yacht from a bar in Hope Town. DAUGHTER OF MISSING AMERICAN WOMAN IN BAHAMAS CITES ‘PRIOR ISSUES,’ URGES COMPLETE PROBE. On Saturday, April 4, Hooker and his wife were eating and drinking at the Abaco Inn—a restaurant in Hope Town, known locally as “Elbow Cay”—several miles by sea from the small, jagged-rock beach where he came ashore in Marsh Harbour. “He said he was on a cay, like at a bar, having something to eat or drink, and they came out to go to another place or back to their boat, but somehow they got out in the rough weather, and they had that incident, the lady [went] overboard, or whatever,” Smith told Fox News Digital on Saturday. Smith declined to be video recorded or photographed. Hooker was arrested for questioning as police investigate Lynette’s disappearance. He informed police that the seas were rough shortly after sundown as the pair tried to return to their yacht, and Lynette fell overboard with the dinghy’s key in her pocket, which cut off the engine. For the next several hours, Hooker drifted and paddled the dinghy, eventually reaching the boatyard’s shore around 4 a.m. The following day… “He drifted from that moment until he arrived here,” Smith said. HUSBAND OF AMERICAN WOMAN MISSING IN THE BAHAMAS SPEAKS OUT FOR FIRST TIME, SAYS HE IS ‘HEARTBROKEN’. No charges have been filed against Hooker by police, and he insists Lynette’s falling overboard was accidental. On Wednesday, he was taken into custody and transferred to Freeport, a distinct island in the Bahamas.

Marie-Louise Eta has made history as the first woman to lead a men’s team in one of Europe’s top five leagues, taking over as interim head coach for Bundesliga club Union Berlin. Her role through the season’s end comes after Steffen Baumgart’s sacking, following his team’s 1-3 defeat to last-placed FC Heidenheim on Saturday. Union Berlin, currently 11th in the 18-team Bundesliga, holds an 11-point buffer above the automatic relegation spots with five games left, but has managed just two wins in 14 league matches in 2026. The 34-year-old Eta, known for shattering barriers, was the Bundesliga’s first female assistant coach with Union Berlin starting in November 2023. She stepped in for then-manager Nenad Bjelica during his three-match ban, guiding the team to a 1-0 victory over Darmstadt in January 2024 and becoming the first woman to manage a Bundesliga side from the sidelines. A former Germany youth international and Women’s Champions League champion with Turbine Potsdam, Eta has coached Union Berlin’s under-19s since July 2025 and will take on the club’s women’s senior team in the summer. “We’ve endured a deeply disappointing second half of the season and won’t let our current standing fool us,” stated Horst Heldt, Union’s director of men’s football. “Our position is still fragile.” Recent weeks’ performances fail to inspire confidence that we can reverse our fortunes with the existing setup. We have thus chosen to start anew. Eta highlighted the difficulties ahead, as Union leads by seven points over St Pauli, who occupy the relegation play-off position. “With the points gap in the bottom half of the table, our Bundesliga status is not yet assured,” she stated. “I’m thrilled that the club has given me this tough responsibility.”  

​ByKal Sajad. BBC Sport boxing reporter at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. One hour ago. Even after all these years, Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua remain at odds. After Fury’s commanding win over Arslanbek Makhmudov at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, it momentarily seemed like the time had come for them to align. The Gypsy King draped himself over the ropes and called Joshua over. The rivalry suddenly sprang back to life. Joshua wasn’t entertaining any mind games, however. Fury goaded him to enter the ring; Joshua remained in place. Yet another instance of the subtle power dynamic that has shaped their rivalry. Joshua refused to be rushed, yet Team Fury—and the Saudi organizers—appeared to anticipate a different outcome. Prior to and right after the fight, Saudi Arabia’s General Entertainment Authority chairman Turki Alalshikh—a key influencer in contemporary boxing—spoke as though the fight announcement was about to drop. Netflix, which aired Saturday night’s comeback event, even promoted the all-British matchup on social media for autumn in the UK, only for Fury’s promoter Frank Warren to swiftly refute it. Fury overpowers Makhmudov and demands a bout with Joshua next.
