Tyrese Gibson surrendered himself to authorities in Fulton County, Georgia, following an outstanding warrant on an animal cruelty charge, and was released on bond the same day. Gibson is accused of owning four Cane Corso dogs that allegedly attacked and killed a neighbor’s small spaniel in September. Authorities say the dogs had been seen roaming his neighborhood in recent weeks. His legal team says the bond was arranged in advance via a consent bond and that he is fully cooperating. Meanwhile, local officials continue to demand that the animals themselves be handed over, arguing public safety concerns remain. No court date has yet been set. Observers are waiting to see whether prosecutors will pursue stronger charges.

Bondi defended her leadership, saying she’s “ending the weaponization of justice.” Tensions rose as senators clashed over her handling of major investigations and federal deployments. Democrats accused her of dodging questions, while Republicans praised her for standing firm. The heated hearing highlighted deep divisions over the DOJ’s independence.

Hamas announced it was prepared to release all Israeli hostages in exchange for an end to the war in Gaza, increased humanitarian aid, and an Israeli withdrawal. President Trump, who unveiled a new peace plan earlier this week, said Hamas was “ready for a lasting peace” and called on Israel to immediately stop its bombing campaign. Israel has not yet formally responded, though opposition leaders urged the government to join negotiations. The proposal leaves questions about whether Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition will accept the terms.

In a Manhattan federal court, Judge Arun Subramanian sentenced Sean “Diddy” Combs to 50 months behind bars after his conviction on two counts related to transporting individuals for prostitution. Prosecutors had originally sought over 11 years, citing abuse and coercion, while the defense argued for a 14-month term, factoring in time already served. Combs was acquitted of more serious charges, including sex trafficking and racketeering.
