A 12-year-old boy has tragically died a day after arriving at a therapy camp, sparking a police investigation into his "suspicious" death.

The Transylvania County Sheriff's office said the boy was taken to Trails Carolina camp in Lake Toxaway in North Carolina on February 2 with his parent's consent.

 

Freeway Killer William Bonin was sentenced to death for the murder of 14 teen boys and young men whose naked, sodomized bodies were dumped along California's roads and highways.

The Freeway Killer's identity remained unknown for more than a year as more than 21 young men and boys were sexually assaulted, tortured and murdered between May 1979 and June 1980. Their killer got his name as he cruised the Southern California streets, hunting for victims before he then left their bodies dumped along the sides of major roads and highways.

 

For nearly 50 years, no one knew what happened to Teree Becker.

She was last seen Dec. 4, 1975, hitchhiking to see her boyfriend in Brighton, Colorado. Two days later, her body was found dumped in a field outside Denver.

Two passing motorcyclists discovered Becker in the area of 100th Avenue and Lowell Boulevard in Westminster, about 10 miles north of Denver, along with her clothes and personal items.

 

Popular Chinese outlets have been suggesting that events in Texas have led to deep divisions in the US widening to a point where unrest has become a stark reality.

More than 6.3m migrants have crossed into the US illegally since the beginning of 2021 - record highs that have intensified a standoff between President Joe Biden and Texas Governor Greg Abbott.

As part of his Operation Lone Star, Mr Abbott has sought to block or deter entry into his state, including by installing about 30 miles (48km) of razor wire barriers along the city of Eagle Pass.

The US Supreme Court ruled last month against Mr Abbott, but the Republican has vowed to add more razor wire to crack down on what he calls an "invasion".

Trending social media posts in China allege Mr Abbott was preparing to go to war with US federal authorities.
