A naturalized citizen from the U.K. who allegedly went on a shooting spree in Georgia and murdered a DHS employee walking her dog has been found dead in his prison cell while awaiting trial.

Olaolukitan Adon Abel, 26, was arrested after a witness saw him last week standing over the body of Lauren Bullis, an auditor with the Department of Homeland Security.

Police said the killing was the third murderous attack Adon Abel had committed in a series that included the lethal shooting of a woman and another shooting that killed a homeless man.

The DeKalb County Sheriff’s Office confirmed that Adon Abel was found unresponsive in his jail cell just after 6:48 p.m. Tuesday and was pronounced dead 29 minutes later after detention staff tried to revive him.

Officials said there was no evidence of foul play in his death, and an internal investigation will determine the circumstances of his death.

Bullis was walking her dog on April 13 when Adon Abel shot and stabbed her, according to police. Her neighbor said she saw the man trying to pull the victim’s pants off after the attack before he fled.

Police said the killing was the third murderous attack Adon Abel had committed in a series that included the lethal shooting of a woman and another shooting that killed a homeless man.

DHS later released the man’s extensive prior criminal convictions that included “sexual battery, battery against a police officer, obstruction, assault with a deadly weapon, and vandalism.”

“These acts of pure evil have devastated our Department and my prayers are with the families of the victims,” DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin said.

Adon Abel was naturalized by the Biden administration in 2022.

Mullin went on to say that the Trump administration is making efforts to prevent dangerous criminals from entering the country through the immigration system.

“In an effort to remove murderers like this from our communities, U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced the creation of a new vetting center on December 5, 2025, to enhance screening and vetting of immigration applications, with a focus on identifying terrorists, criminal aliens, and other threats to public safety,” reads a statement from DHS.

President Donald Trump says he has secured an agreement with the Iranian regime to stop the planned execution of eight women who had reportedly protested against the ruling party.

The women were reportedly swept up in the regime’s crackdown on protests in January that led to thousands being killed and tens of thousands of arrests. Official estimates of the death count vary widely.

‘I very much appreciate that Iran, and its leaders, respected my request, as President of the United States.’

“Very good news! I have just been informed that the eight women protestors who were going to be executed tonight in Iran will no longer be killed,” the president wrote in a statement on Truth Social.

He went on to say that four of the women would be released immediately and another four would be sentenced to one month in prison.

“I very much appreciate that Iran, and its leaders, respected my request, as President of the United States, and terminated the planned execution. Thank you for your attention to this matter!” he added.

The Trump administration is negotiating with the remaining elements of the Iranian regime after devastating strikes from the U.S. and Israel.

On Tuesday, the president had posted a request to the Iranian regime to do no harm to the women as a show of good faith for their peace negotiations.

The president was responding to a post on social media by pro-Israel activist Eyal Yakoby that included photos of eight women. Among them was Bita Hemmati, a woman accused of committing violent acts in the protest, according to the National Council of Resistance of Iran, an opposition organization.

On Tuesday, Trump extended the ceasefire with Iran in order to allow the regime to come up with a “unified proposal” for peace negotiations. Iran later announced that it had seized two tankers in the Strait of Hormuz.

A Norwegian human rights group said that two of the women had already been let out on bail since late March, and the Iranian judiciary denied that the women were facing the death penalty.

Amnesty International said there was evidence to prove the regime had conducted “mass unlawful killings” on an “unprecedented scale” to quell the protests. Former Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei had admitted to “thousands” of deaths.

Iran claimed more than 3,000 people had been killed, but some estimates place the death toll to as many as 20,000, according to Amnesty.

The Israel Defense Forces have been painted into a corner recently, as they were forced to acknowledge and respond to an atrocious act of sacrilege committed by those in their ranks.

Blaze News previously reported on two separate incidents involving IDF soldiers desecrating Christian sites and symbols.

The secular headquarters ‘have very little control of the behavior on the ground.’

The first incident involved a uniformed IDF soldier smashing a statue of Jesus Christ in the face with a sledgehammer. The second, which occurred in late November 2024, was a video showing the desecration of an Orthodox church in Deir Mimas, Lebanon.

While the IDF has acknowledged both incidents to some degree, the extent of their response to the recent viral photo of the IDF soldier smashing the Christ statue was a rare step for Israeli leadership.

While Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said he was “shocked and saddened” by the photo, the IDF announced punishments following the conclusion of their investigation.

The IDF announced Tuesday that both the soldier who photographed the smashing of the statue and the one who destroyed it would be removed from combat duty and receive 30 days of military detention.

Six additional soldiers who were present at the scene failed to intervene, stop, or report the incident. They have been “summoned for clarification discussions,” and “further command-level measures will be determined” moving forward.

Yet a new article from the Telegraph has suggested that these incidents may be a symptom of changing religious dynamics within the IDF’s ranks.

The Telegraph reported that a stricter sense of religious observance has begun to change the IDF culture.

Citing examples such as female soldiers being reprimanded for dressing “immodestly” and other soldiers being jailed for barbecuing on Shabbat, the Telegraph suggested that the IDF’s culture would be “almost unrecognizable” to the Israeli soldiers of the first decades of the state’s existence.

It is common knowledge that Israel’s military has historically been a secular institution within a largely secular government.

However, the author suggested that the IDF’s ranks are beginning to fill with Israelis who adhere to a “messianic and ultra-nationalist ideology” that informs the very reason they joined the military service in the first place.

This trend has caused tensions to rise between the religious soldiers and the generally secular leadership.

Chairman of the Secular Forum Dr. Ram Vromen told the Telegraph that the leadership views these changes with hostility.

“For years before October 7, secular people increasingly identified the combat roles with things they were not sympathetic to, like the occupation in the West Bank, so they volunteered for other roles,” he said. “But the religious and the religious nationalist recruits volunteer for combat roles enthusiastically.”

Vromen added that the secular headquarters “have very little control of the behavior on the ground,” likely referring to the recent incidents that have harmed the IDF’s public image.

It was later argued that the IDF, even if its leadership remains secular, faces a dilemma.

Between growing personnel shortages during the war and an increasing reliance on these religious soldiers to do the warfighting, the military cannot afford to lose them; however, the religious cultural shift continues to solidify its hold on the institution through an “increasingly muscular military rabbinate” and a takeover of most educational activities in the military.

As a result, the IDF may be forced to deal with increasingly popular ideas such as the expansionist “Greater Israel” project, along with more incidents like those mentioned above.

The internet icon known as the Scottish axe girl gave testimony in the trial of a man accused of attacking her last August.

Following her testimony, a judge lectured the young girl about possessing the weapons in the first place.

‘Come here, sexy. I’ll show you how to have a good time.’

The case goes back to the summer of 2025 when the 13-year-old girl was captured on video brandishing an axe and a knife in Dundee, Scotland.

Blaze News previously reported on allegations that a man had attacked the young girl after making sexual comments. Scotland Police stated than an adult man and woman had been charged in relation to the incident, along with a young girl.

The accused have since been identified as 22-year-old Ilia Belov and 20-year-old Nadjedzha Belova; both were charged with violent offenses against a group of girls between 12 and 14 years old. The man is also accused of following four young girls, according to the BBC, but he denies the allegations.

During Belov’s trial last week, the teen girl testified that the man repeatedly said, “Come here, sexy. I’ll show you how to have a good time.”

The girl said the remarks made her “angry,” so she “turned around and shouted at him.”

The 13-year-old also testified that a woman approached the group and threw the girl’s sister to the ground, which is when the girl tried “to go for” the woman but was pushed by the man.

The child then accused the adult male of pushing her on the head, which hit a handrail, and the adult female of kicking her sister “in the head.”

The girl told the defense attorney that it was at this point she brandished the axe and knife from her waistband, which was when she was filmed.

Defense lawyer Larry Flynn claimed that his client, Belov, did not start the incident and was simply responding to comments that were made to him. He also claimed that the witness called Belov an “immigrant,” but the young girl denied the allegation.

After the young girl presented her testimony, Sheriff Tim Niven-Smith — the judge presiding over the trial — told her she shouldn’t have been carrying weapons in the first place.

“I hope you reflect that it’s not a good idea to carry weapons in the city of Dundee,” he reportedly said.

“There is no such thing as a defensive weapon; there are only offensive weapons,” he added.

According to U.K. law, it is an offense to carry “a bladed or sharply pointed article” in public. Although there are carveouts for a “reasonable excuse,” such as work, religion, or costume, the application of these rules can be strict.

According to the Inspectorate of Prosecution in Scotland, a government oversight agency, a gardener was convicted for possessing an axe in the door of his car because it was not stored in a tool bag in the trunk with his other tools.

Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota refused to answer a reporter’s questions about revisions to her wealth disclosures.

Omar changed a disclosure of her assets from millions down to far less after Republicans demanded financial documents from her and her husband.

‘Last time I spoke to you, you said I was “stupid” for asking about your financial disclosure, but there’s some discrepancies on there, would you like to explain that?’

When pressed by a LindellTV reporter Alison Steinberg about the disclosures, Omar refused to answer even the simplest of questions.

“Last time I spoke to you, you said that I was ‘stupid’ for asking about your financial disclosure, but there’s some discrepancies on there. Would you like to explain that?” asked Steinberg. “Would you like to explain them? How did you make such a big mistake on them?”

“I said absolutely I think you’re stupid for asking me anything,” Omar responded.

“I am?” she asked.

“Yes!” Omar replied.

“Well, what about the American people who are wondering how you made such a big mistake?” Steinberg pressed.

“I have explained to the American people,” Omar said, smiling.

“What’s the explanation?” Steinberg asked.

“I have given them the explanation,” Omar claimed.

“Do you want to tell our viewers?” Steinberg asked.

“I don’t want to tell you jack s**t!” Omar interrupted.

“Oh!” Steinberg responded.

“How about that?” Omar said.

“OK!” Steinberg said.

“OK, have a good day!” Omar added.

LindellTV posted video of the interaction on social media where it quickly went viral.

Omar had initially reported her assets as being between $6 million and up to $30 million after growing in one year from $51,000. After investigative reporters began questioning the possibility of such a massive growth in assets, congressional Republicans demanded financial documents from her husband about their business investments.

Months later, a spokesperson for Omar said that the report had been a mistake and that they had revised the asset value to $18,004 and $95,000.
