Here’s how the next few months may play out. THE PROBATE PROCESS Whether or not he left behind a will, and whatever that document says, Simpson’s assets will now almost certainly have to go through what’s known as the probate process in court before his four children or other intended heirs can collect on any of them. Different states have different probate laws. Generally, the case is filed in the state where the person was living when they died. In Simpson’s case that’s Nevada. But if significant assets are in

Gloria Steinem turned 90 years old last month. She is the oldest living feminist from an era when this was a sign of being a “serious woman.” The thinking goes that unless you call yourself a feminist, people will send you back to the kitchen, forcibly impregnate you and hide your shoes. But that “I am woman, hear me roar” anthem singing is long past its heyday. Gloria, however, is not. She has tried to remain relevant over the years by popping up and giving her opinion on various current events, like when Donald Trump was elected. The day after the inauguration, she showed up at the Pink Hat Jamboree saying things like: “We are here and around the world for a deep democracy that says we will not be quiet, we will not be controlled, we will work for a world in which all countries are connected. God may be in the details, but the goddess is in connections. We are at one with each other, we are looking at each other, not up. No more asking daddy.” I was told that I stand

FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) — At his barbershop in Clovis, Prince Fields cuts hair for his customers. But not a day goes by where he doesn’t think about his brother, Bryant Fields. “I just can’t believe that it happened,” said Prince. “Every day that goes by, it’s just hard to not think about him.” Last Thursday, the 38-year-old was struck and killed on Chestnut near Clinton Avenue in East Central Fresno. A memorial is now at the site of the crash. Earlier this week, Fresno police arrested 23-year-old Miguel Ortiz Montilla. Police said Montilla ran over Fields, made a U-turn, drove past the accident and then took off. “How can you hit a human being and comeback, and witness what you did and then leave,” said Prince. “Then on top of that, not even turn yourself in?” Police said Montilla is charged with hit-and-run involving death. He was released on bond Tuesday night. It’s not the first time a Central Valley family has endured this type of heartbreak. In 2019, Assemblymember Jim Patterson introduced Gavin’s Law, named after Clovis Unified Vice Principal Gavin Gladding, who was

LOS ANGELES — O.J. Simpson’s death Thursday not only resurfaces memories of one of the most famous trials of the 20th century but also highlights the impact the case had on modern media coverage. His trial lasted nine months in 1994 to 1995 and drew more than 2,500 journalists to the downtown Los Angeles courthouse. Entirely new pool coverage facilities had to be built in the courthouse and the then-shuttered Hall of Justice building across the street to handle the global coverage. MORE: Where are they now? Key players in the murder trial of OJ Simpson “We literally ran hundreds of miles of cables,” said Scott Shulman who served as the television engineering consultant for the Radio and TV News Directors Association during the trial, responsible for building and managing what was nicknamed Camp OJ. “From a journalistic standpoint, there was nothing like it and I don’t think there will

(KFSN) — From Instagram to TikTok, the “Sleepy Girl Mocktail” is flooding social media feeds. According to some users, they didn’t notice a difference in their sleep. Meanwhile, others claim it’s their new bedtime beverage. “I slept like a baby,” said TikTok user @NataliesOutlet. “I slept through the night.” The drink calls for 100% cherry juice, prebiotic soda or sparkling water and magnesium glycinate powder. A Fresno sleep specialist said two of the ingredients are natural sleep aids. “For many years, we have known that tryptophan in turkey promotes sleep,” explained Dr. Lourdes DelRosso, with University Sleep and Pulmonary Associates. “So cherries have a little bit of tryptophan.” According to Dr. DelRosso, mixing the cherry juice with magnesium helps your body relax. “We know already that magnesium has an important part in muscle relaxation,” she said. “So that may be a contributor to how we actually relax to fall

We were thrilled to come across a Big Foot sighting. “What we’ve got here is our Big Foot platter — it’s on the menu all the time and it’s kind of a sampler of what we offer,” says Chef Brad Coleman. The platter is served with smoked significance. Big Foot actually welcomes you to the casino. “One of our tribal members from the Tule River tribe carved the statue by hand,” says Joey Perez. Chefs in the kitchen carve up tri-tip and other meats for the Big Foot platter.

The platter comes with three sides. The brisket and pork also goes into a smokehouse burger, a top seller. “So then you get your
