A booking is an accusation. He was booked into the Jefferson County Jail in Birmingham, Alabama, on Sept. 15, 2026, about 2:30 a.m., on reported charges of second-degree assault of a police officer, attempting to elude, unlawful possession of a controlled substance, and drug paraphernalia, with bond set at $37,000. That he is the foster son of "The Pioneer Woman" Ree Drummond and Ladd Drummond is biography, not proof of the charges.
TMZ, in an account updated Sept. 23, described a campus encounter near a UAB fountain, an alleged reference to "ice," or meth, a flight, and an open-handed palm strike on an officer at a hospital. The same account said a glass pipe and about 1.8 grams of methamphetamine were claimed found. Those details are the reported accusation. They are not findings. A $37,000 bond is a custody condition. It is not a conviction.
The charges as reported are second-degree assault of a police officer, attempting to elude, unlawful possession of a controlled substance, and drug paraphernalia. A Sept. 15 booking about 2:30 a.m. into the Jefferson County Jail is how the file starts. A celebrity foster-family bio does not convert an accusation into proof. All defendants are presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Page Six says unsealed records from the Lively-Baldoni fight include Ryan Reynolds texts calling Baldoni a "predator and sociopath."
A text message in a court file is proof that someone wrote something. It is not a finding that what he wrote is true. Reynolds was angry in August 2024, and the records Page Six obtained show it. Baldoni has denied Lively's allegations from the start, and no jury ever ruled on them. Page Six reported the case settled in May. What is left now is the paper trail.

LAPD homicide detectives searched Joshua Tree on Friday for evidence in Christina Downer's disappearance.
A search by homicide detectives is a step in an investigation. It is not an arrest, and it is not a finding that anyone killed Christina Downer. Fox News reported the LAPD would not say what evidence detectives hoped to find in Joshua Tree, or whether they were looking for remains or a suspect. NBC Los Angeles reported that dogs were part of the search. Fox News reported a department spokesperson could not confirm the dogs. No one has been named or charged.

LAPD booked Gregory Walker on a felony assault count in the February shooting of 49ers lineman Keion White.
A booking described to a newspaper is the police account of who is in custody and on what count. It is not a criminal complaint the public has seen, and it is not a conviction. The New York Post reported that LAPD officials named Gregory Walker as the suspected gunman in the February shooting of Keion White. The Post did not report a charge against Lil Baby, who was described as the person White argued with before the shots. What a witness told police about two gunshots is an allegation. A jury has not heard it.
