He went missing on Sunday night while out on the water with a friend, and the Coast Guard reported that the two Virginia Beach boaters were late returning to Wanchese, where their boat required repairs.

Authorities revealed that Griffin and his companion had not been seen or heard from since 6:15 p.m. on Sunday. On Monday, local first responders and Coast Guard personnel discovered their vacant vessel, and upon searching it, they found the bodies of Griffin and his beloved dog, Leila. As of Monday night, the search continued for the second individual who was supposed to be on the trip.

A heartbreaking post on Griffin’s Facebook page, Reels of Fortune, confirmed his passing, sharing a photo of him smiling in the sun with the caption, “It is with the deepest sadness that we report that Charlie Griffin and his beloved dog, Leila, have died in a boating accident today.” The post urged friends and family to keep them in their thoughts and prayers.

Griffin joined Wicked Tuna starting in Season 2 and continued to work on the show until Season 5. The series follows skilled anglers as they pursue large fish that can be worth tens of thousands of dollars, showcasing the challenges and triumphs of commercial fishing.

The Real Reason Donald Trump Was Placed Where He Was At Pope Francis’ Funeral – Rune Echo https://runeecho.com/the-real-reason-donald-trump-was-placed-where-he-was-at-pope-francis-funeral-science-and-nature/ https://runeecho.com/the-real-reason-donald-trump-was-placed-where-he-was-at-pope-francis-funeral-science-and-nature/#respond Mon, 28 Apr 2025 15:51:03 +0000 https://runeecho.com/?p=10382 [...]]]> Michelle Obama recently addressed ongoing divorce rumors with former President Barack Obama, emphasizing societal expectations placed on women, particularly those in the public eye. On Sophia Bush’s Work in Progress podcast, Michelle discussed the newfound freedom she feels as an “empty nester,” with both daughters, Malia and Sasha, now independent. She joyfully shared that this is the first time in her life that all her choices are for herself.

Reflecting on her past, Michelle noted how she often prioritized her family’s needs, especially Barack’s political career, over her own. However, she acknowledged the challenges women face when setting boundaries or choosing for themselves, often facing judgment. She pointed out that her recent absences from public events, like Jimmy Carter’s funeral and Donald Trump’s inauguration, fueled rumors about her marriage.Michelle also addressed the tabloids linking her husband to actress Jennifer Aniston, which Aniston denied. Her remarks not only dismissed the divorce speculation but also highlighted the societal bias that assumes a woman’s independence must be linked to marital problems. Michelle’s reflections were a reminder that women, even public figures, should not have to justify their personal choices.

The Real Reason Donald Trump Was Placed Where He Was At Pope Francis’ Funeral https://runeecho.com/the-real-reason-donald-trump-was-placed-where-he-was-at-pope-francis-funeral/ https://runeecho.com/the-real-reason-donald-trump-was-placed-where-he-was-at-pope-francis-funeral/#respond Mon, 28 Apr 2025 14:23:30 +0000 https://runeecho.com/?p=10378 [...]]]> Donald Trump’s seating arrangement at Pope Francis’ funeral on April 28 sparked controversy. Initially expected to be assigned a “third-tier” seat, Trump ended up in a different location. Media reports suggested he would sit between the leaders of Finland and Estonia, following the usual alphabetical order in French for world leaders. However, Trump managed to secure a front-row seat, despite the anticipation.

The seating plan was influenced by diplomatic sensitivities and “big egos,” as noted by Cardinal Vincent Nichols. Trump had previously voiced frustration over being placed in the 14th row during Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral, claiming that had he been president, he would have been treated differently.


Trump’s attire also attracted attention. Instead of the traditional black, he wore a blue suit, which some saw as disrespectful. Critics on social media expressed their disappointment, calling it a sign of disrespect to the Pope and to the U.S.

I’m 60 years old and still a virgin https://runeecho.com/im-60-years-old-and-still-a-virgin/ https://runeecho.com/im-60-years-old-and-still-a-virgin/#respond Sun, 27 Apr 2025 20:52:14 +0000 https://runeecho.com/?p=10375 [...]]]> I’m 60 years old and still a virgin.

At 70 years old, she’s a virgin! Look at how she looks! The woman in the pictures is 70 years old and can boast of something quite unusual: she’s a virgin!

Even though she hasn’t experienced physical pleasure, Pam Shaw declares herself a happy woman!

Virgin at 70

Pam Shaw is a 70-year-old British woman who can boast of something less common: she’s a virgin! Pam lives happily in Wigan, and recently, she even did a fashion photoshoot right at her own home!

How can we explain the fact that she hasn’t lost her virginity at an age when other women already have grandchildren?

Pam is a cabaret singer and has focused on her career most of her life, so she didn’t have time for a long-term relationship.

And she doesn’t believe in sex before marriage, so an affair was out of the question.

Now she says she’s ready to take the big step, but her standards are quite high. She wouldn’t give away her virginity except to a tall and brunette millionaire…

Mexican National Charged for Attempted Bribery of US Border Patrol Agent https://runeecho.com/mexican-national-charged-for-attempted-bribery-of-us-border-patrol-agent/ https://runeecho.com/mexican-national-charged-for-attempted-bribery-of-us-border-patrol-agent/#respond Sun, 27 Apr 2025 18:59:15 +0000 https://runeecho.com/?p=10369 [...]]]> A Mexican citizen is being charged by the federal government with trying to bribe a U.S. Border Patrol agent after being caught illegally entering the U.S. again. Records from the court show that on February 8, 2025, 29-year-old Samuel Mendoza-Torres was arrested with another person near the Santa Teresa Border Patrol Station. Mendoza-Torres is said to have asked the agent, “Can we fix this?” and offered $400 to get him out of jail while he was being taken to the station. Mendoza-Torres admitted to helping illegal immigrants come to the U.S. from Mexico during an interview after he was arrested. He also said that he knew it was against the law to give money to the Border Patrol agent. Mendoza-Torres will stay in jail until his trial, which has not yet been scheduled. Mendoza-Torres could spend 20 years in prison if found guilty of the current charges, the U.S. Department of Justice said in a press release. As of today, the news came from U.S. Attorney Alexander M.M. Uballez, Raul Bujanda, who is Special Agent in Charge of the FBI Albuquerque Field Office, and Chief Patrol Agent Walter “Neil” Slosar of the U.S. Border Patrol El Paso Sector. This case is being looked into by the U.S. Border Patrol and the Las Cruces Resident Agency of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The Trump administration has been busy lately with major arrests. A man from Katy, Texas, was sentenced to 18 months in prison by a federal court in Del Rio for one count of assaulting, resisting, or getting in the way of police officers or employees. “According to court documents, Kevin Dominguez, 26, drove a sedan to the U.S. Border Patrol immigration checkpoint, located on U.S. Highway 57, on Aug. 1, 2023. A USBP canine alerted the agents to the trunk, revealing an individual inside. Upon the USBP agent noticing the individual, Dominguez backed up and struck the agent with the vehicle before fleeing the checkpoint,” the FBI announced in a press release. “A high-speed chase ensued and a USBP helicopter observed two occupants exit the vehicle into an open field. One of the individuals was located and confirmed to be an undocumented noncitizen from Honduras. Dominguez was indicted in a two-count indictment on Sept. 13, 2023, and was arrested on Sept. 14. He pleaded guilty on Jan. 24, 2024,” the press release added. Separately, the FBI also announced that four people were arrested in El Paso, Texas, on criminal charges related to their alleged roles in a plot to smuggle people across the border. Official court records say that agents from the Ysleta Border Patrol Station’s Disrupt Unit were watching a motel in El Paso when they saw a car with a temporary license plate. The vehicle had already been seen at several hotels that were known to house undocumented foreigners. According to court documents, the driver of the car briefly went into the motel lobby before getting back in and driving off. Soon after, the agents supposedly saw three people carefully leaving one of the motel rooms and getting into a different car with a temporary license plate. Yair Alejandro Aguilar-Flores, the driver of the car, is said to have admitted that he is from Mexico and is living in the US illegally. Angel Eduardo Carrillo-Carrillo and Jorge Alfredo Lopez-Acevedo, the two people who were with him, were also arrested because they were also caught illegally in the U.S. They also admitted that there were more undocumented foreigners in the motel room. After looking into it, the agents found seven more undocumented foreigners. They all were arrested. As the police were wrapping up their investigation, they saw the driver of the first car going back to the motel. He walked up to the room where the migrants were being held and knocked on the door. Jesus David Reyes-Villagran allegedly told the police that the motel room was his and that he was coming back from dropping off five other undocumented foreigners at another El Paso hotel. It is the job of Aguilar-Flores, Carrillo-Carrillo, Lopez-Acevedo, and Reyes-Villagran to bring aliens in and move them around. They could each spend up to 10 years in prison if found guilty. The U.S. Sentencing Guidelines and other legal factors will be used by a federal district court judge to decide on any sentence. Federal officials also arrested a Honduran citizen who had been deported and convicted of crimes before being taken into federal custody in Austin on criminal charges related to his alleged illegal re-entry. Court records show that Melvin Armando Funes-Canales was found in the Williamson County jail on or around July 16, 2024. He had been there because he was suspected of having a controlled substance. After looking into it, Funes-Canales had been sent back to Honduras from the U.S. on or around October 9, 2020, and had also been sent back five other times. Funes-Canales has also been found guilty of burglary, grand theft, and illegal re-entry in the past. The charge against Funes-Canales is illegal re-entry. Funes-Canales could spend up to 10 years in prison if he is found guilty.

The image included all of Trump’s children, their partners, grandchildren, and Elon Musk — but noticeably missing was former First Lady Melania Trump.

Although Melania made a rare appearance earlier that day to vote with Trump in Palm Beach, she has largely kept a low profile. According to insiders, she prefers a private life and has settled into a quieter routine between Mar-a-Lago and New York since 2021.Sources suggest her absence from campaign events reflects her discomfort with the public spotlight and her focus on raising their son, Barron. Melania’s distance may signal a shift in the traditional role of the First Lady — prioritizing personal choice over public duties. If she remains in Florida, it could redefine expectations for presidential spouses; if she joins Trump in Washington, it may represent unity and strength in a potential second term.

SAD NEWS: 30 minutes ago in Sevier https://runeecho.com/sad-news-30-minutes-ago-in-sevier/ https://runeecho.com/sad-news-30-minutes-ago-in-sevier/#respond Sat, 26 Apr 2025 23:17:33 +0000 https://runeecho.com/?p=10364 [...]]]> In a tragic turn of events that has shocked fans all around, the family of legendary country music star Dolly Parton has just revealed very emotional news: Dolly’s cherished elder sister Cassie Nan Parton is now in severe condition at a Sevier County, Tennessee hospital. Cassie’s unexpected health drop at 80 years old has rocked the whole Parton family, and the news has generated a flood of love, worry, and prayers from all around. A family representative published the sad statement 30 minutes ago via a press release from the Sevier County Medical Center and a combined message on Dolly Parton’s official social media channels. The short but heartfelt note said: The Parton family, with great sadness, verifies that Cassie Nan Parton, adored matriarch of the Parton family and sister to Dolly Parton, is now in severe condition. We seek privacy, love, and most importantly, prayers during this trying time. A Devastating Blow to the Parton Family Especially for those who have long followed the closely-knit Parton family, this news is an emotional shock to millions. Known for her quiet grace, deep spirituality, and gentle attitude, Cassie has always been a vital but sometimes private presence in Dolly’s life. Growing up together in the hills of East Tennessee, the sisters were raised in a one-room cabin in Locust Ridge with 10 other siblings. Over the years, that modest start created a strong bond that stayed unbreakable.

Once Cassie herself dabbled in music, notably singing with Dolly and their siblings in early gospel recordings. Among the family harmonies, her clear, hauntingly lovely voice stood out. She stayed a grounding influence in Dolly’s life even as she later left the spotlight to concentrate on family and religion. Dolly once remarked in a touching interview, “Cassie is my heart.” She has always been the calm in my storm, the prayer when I was lost, and the song I could never compose. A Personal Struggle Exposed Family sources say Cassie had been battling health issues in the last few months but decided to remain private about her situation. Though she was older, she still participated in her church, sometimes working at neighborhood food banks and leading prayer meetings from her simple Sevier County home. Her health, though, is said to have gotten worse over the last several weeks. Reportedly, she was rushed to the hospital this past weekend after falling at home surrounded by family. Though one source called it “sudden and serious,” doctors have not made official information on the kind of her disease public. The Parton family has been watching by her side ever since; Dolly herself is said to have canceled planned trips and meetings to stay close to her sister. Fans and friends respond with sadness News of the event spread, prompting thousands of fans, friends, and fellow celebrities to turn to social media to express their sincere messages and support. On Twitter and Instagram, hashtags such as #PrayForCassie and #PartonFamilyLove rapidly started trending. A single admirer penned: Though she didn’t pursue celebrity like Dolly, Cassie’s warmth, strength, and love are all factors that helped shape Dolly. Sending all my love to the whole family. Fellow country stars like Reba McEntire, Loretta Lynn’s family, and Carrie Underwood also offered prayers and words of support. Reba wrote, “Prayers up for Dolly and her family.” Sisters are eternal; Cassie is a light. Dolly’s Emotional Quiet Though Dolly has not yet publicly addressed her sister’s situation, those close to her say she is heartbroken. Dolly, who is famous for her cheerful attitude and positive energy, has said she has been crying for most of the day while holding Cassie’s hand and guiding calm hymns at her bedside. A close family friend said, “She’s singing softly to Cassie, just like when they were girls.” “She is remaining strong despite her heartbreak since that is what Cassie would want.” A Family Based in Love Over the years, the Parton family has experienced both victories and losses; yet, they have stayed anchored in faith and love throughout it all. Often called the spiritual center of the family, Cassie was renowned for keeping everyone together—especially in trying times. Her death would be a terrible loss not only for Dolly but also for an entire generation of Partons who have relied on Cassie’s knowledge and fortitude. It’s a reminder that even icons like Dolly Parton experience the profoundly human agony of losing those they love most. A Prayer Request The family asked supporters and fans in their final comments to pray not only for Cassie but also for Dolly and the whole family as they confront this very trying time. Through her love, her faith, and her quiet strength, Cassie Nan Parton has impacted many people. Remember her in your prayers and hearts. The world waits with hope, grief, and great respect for the unbreakable bond between sisters as fans all over the world light candles, sing hymns, and hold their loved ones a little closer tonight. UNFORTUNATE NEWS—but a tale not devoid of love. For in the darkest hours, the strength of a family like the Partons reminds us all of the beauty of faith, sisterhood, and unrelenting devotion.

She clarified that her absence, which sparked rumors about political tensions and marital issues, was solely for self-care.

In a recent podcast, she shared that she’s at a point in life where she needs to define things on her own terms, focusing on her well-being and therapy. She addressed the speculation, saying people assumed her marriage to Barack Obama was in trouble.

She emphasized the importance of learning to say “no” for herself and teaching her daughters, Sasha and Malia, the same. Obama also expressed her disapproval of Trump, previously calling him a “convicted felon” and “predator.”
