A New York judge issued a no-bail bench warrant for Silvio Scaglia in the Haart divorce.

Page Six reported on Sept. 25, 2026, that Judge Jeffrey Pearlman issued a no-bail bench warrant for Silvio Scaglia and demanded he be jailed for 14 days over the divorce from Julia Haart. The warrant is process. Reporting says he has not submitted to U.S. authorities.

A bench warrant and a contempt finding are process, and a finding that court orders were disobeyed. They are not a criminal theft conviction after a jury trial, and they are not an arrest already carried out. Page Six reported on Sept. 25, 2026, that New York judge Jeffrey Pearlman issued a no-bail bench warrant for Silvio Scaglia, demanding he be immediately jailed for 14 days, after court papers dated Sept. 22 found him in civil and criminal contempt for knowingly and willfully violating orders he repeatedly failed to obey. Scaglia appears to be living in Italy and has not submitted to U.S. authorities, so the 14 days have not been served.

Page Six reported the warrant on Sept. 25, 2026. Court papers dated Sept. 22, as reported, found Silvio Scaglia in both civil and criminal contempt for knowingly and willfully violating court orders, and they record that he repeatedly failed to appear when ordered. Judge Jeffrey Pearlman issued a no-bail bench warrant demanding that he be immediately jailed for 14 days. Page Six reported that Scaglia appears to be living in Italy and has not submitted to U.S. authorities for the alleged contempt. The warrant has been issued. He has not been reported arrested on it, and he has not been reported to have served the 14 days.

The papers claim he broke rules against moving shared assets once the divorce began, by transferring Elite World Group without Julia Haart's permission and by siphoning assets. Pearlman had previously found that Scaglia bought Bentleys, Porsches, and Van Cleef & Arpels jewels with company funds, as previously reported. Scaglia's attorneys have previously denied the transfer allegations. He and representatives did not respond to Page Six requests for comment. Separately, the four-year divorce was finalized with Haart awarded 100 percent of Elite World Group and the Tribeca apartment. That civil judgment is not this warrant. Contempt and a bench warrant are not a criminal theft conviction after a jury trial.

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.
