THE TELEGRAPH: YouTuber ‘chopped up boyfriend and dumped his head in sea’ REUTERS: Son of Spanish actor detained in Thailand in grisly murder case A YouTube chef has appeared in court accused of chopping up his boyfriend and dumping his head in the sea on a Thai resort island. Daniel Sancho Bronchalo, 29, appeared in court on Monday after police arrested him for the brutal death and dismemberment of his lover Dr Edwin Arrieta Arteaga, a 44-year old Colombian plastic surgeon. The pair were on holiday on the southern Thai island of Koh Pha Ngan – famed for its picturesque beaches, laid-back lifestyle and wild “full moon” parties – when an argument over “sex and money” turned deadly, according to local police. But the officers have said there are signs the grisly crime was premeditated. “He admitted it,” Panya Niratimanon, the police chief of Koh Pha Ngan, told AFP. “The victim and the suspect knew each other before they came to Thailand, and his dubious activities indicate that he might murder the victim.” Dr Edwin Arrieta Arteaga was a 44-year-old plastic surgeon from Colombia According to local media reports, Mr Sancho – the son of Spanish actors Rodolfo Sancho Aguirre and Silvia Bronchalo, and a well-known social media chef in his home country – reported his lover missing after attending a full moon party with friends. The pair had known each other for a year. But on Friday, Mr Sancho was detained shortly after body parts, including hips and thighs, were found by shocked locals at a landfill site on the island. It has since been alleged that the YouTuber cut Arteaga’s body into 14 pieces, discarding some in the rubbish dump and using a kayak to cast others out to sea in a suitcase – including the surgeon’s head. On Sunday, Mr Sancho travelled with police to seven sites where he is accused of ditching the body parts. Mr Sancho travelled with police to seven sites where he is accused of ditching the body parts. Police Major-General Saranyu Chamnanrat told Reuters that DNA tests have proved the remains are Arteaga’s, and that Mr Sancho has been charged with “premeditated murder and secretly moving or destroying a corpse to conceal a death or the cause of death”. Other media outlets have reported that Mr Sancho had been purchasing knives, plastic bags and cleaning supplies at various convenience stores across Koh Pha Ngan. On Sunday, Mr Sancho’s family released a statement asking for “maximum respect, both for Daniel Sancho himself and for the whole family, in these delicate moments of maximum confusion”. Police said the chef was in court on Monday, with police seeking his continued detention as investigations continue.

https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/florida-appears-to-reverse-effort-to-bar-ap-psychologys-lgbtq-content/ar-AA1eUDw9 Apparently Florida education leaders reversed course on banning AP Psych, and are now saying the course can be taught "in its entirety" and "without fear of punishment". This includes the parts about gender or sexual orientation. I read that this has less to do with an altruistic change of heart and more to do with the fact that a lawsuit that was threatened. Apparently said lawsuit could've resulted in the striking down of Florida's awful Don't Say Gay law in court. tldr: bad policy gets reversed, but for a shitty reason

An investigation included interviews with students, the victim, and a review of school surveillance footage.

Iran has been engulfed in a sex tape scandal after a senior government official responsible for promoting Islamic values was suspended after a video was leaked of a man alleged to be him having sex with another man. The video which has been shared online reportedly is of a man said to be Reza Tsaghati, the head of culture and Islamic guidance in the northern Gilan province. Mr Tsaghati has reportedly been suspended from his position pending an investigation by the authorities - and the government have denied any prior knowledge of his alleged behaviour. The Iranian official is the founder of a cultural centre which focuses on piety and the hijab, an Islamic headscarf. Iranian culture minister Mohammad Mehdi Esmaili today said they had not previously received any reports which cast Mr Tsaghati in a negative light before the publication of the sex tape online. Critics of Iran's regime have noted how the treatment of senior officials accused of crimes differs to LGBT+ people or women charged with not following Islamic values. Iranian law, which is based on Islamic Sharia law, same-sex relationships are crimes and carry a maximum sentence of death - although this is not frequently used, gay people do face overwhelming discrimination. The government did not publicly acknowledge the sex tape at first when it appeared online, but on July 22, the cultural and Islamic guidance department of Gilan issued a statement referring to the 'suspected misstep of the director of Islamic guidance in Gilan'. It said the case was 'referred for careful consideration to the judicial authorities' but warned the public against using the video to 'weaken the honourable cultural front of the Islamic Revolution'. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12351999/amp/Islamic-Iran-engulfed-sex-tape-scandal-Senior-regime-official-suspended-video-leaked-showing-having-sex-man.html

New Zealanders have been giggling over this moment that happened during parliament's question time yesterday, with the Deputy Leader of the National Party (right-wing) asking the Minister of Finance in the Labour Party (Left-ish wing, Jacinda Ardern former leader) a messy question.

A French daredevil known for scaling skyscrapers around the world has died after falling from the 68th floor of a building in Hong Kong. Remi Lucidi, 30, was at the Tregunter Tower complex in Hong Kong when he fell to his death after reportedly getting trapped outside a penthouse. According to investigators, Lucidi arrived at the building in the evening and told the security guard that he was visiting a friend on the 40th floor. Lucidi is believed to have made his way to a top floor, and according to the South China Morning Post, he got trapped outside and frantically started knocking on a window, startling a maid inside. The stuntman then lost his footing and fell. Hong Kong officials claim that the building’s security guard attempted to cross-examine Lucidi’s claim to be visiting a friend on the 40th floor, but the stuntman had already caught an elevator by then. A source told the Post that Mr Lucidi was last seen alive knocking on a penthouse window on the 68th floor of Tregunter Tower at about 7.30pm, which prompted a maid to call the police. Police found Lucidi’s sports camera at the scene, which contained videos of extreme sports. An official statement and the cause of the stuntman’s death are yet to be revealed by the Hong Kong police. Shortly before his death, Lucidi posted a photograph of the Hong Kong skyline on his Instagram profile. https://www.instagram.com/remnigma/?utm_source=ig_embed&ig_rid=46390393-52d8-45d4-a502-1bb97d4812ac&ig_mid=11AA8899-45E3-4BED-88FC-D516C681F178 https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/daredevil-death-high-rise-stunts-cause-age-b2384736.html
