Easter Sunday is a holy day for Christians around the world. Its celebration brings hope to the nations through the resurrection of Jesus Christ. As we approach this holy day, Nancy Grace and her expert panel explores the facts of Jesus' crucifixion, resurrection and historical evidence in its reality.
Jesus' arrival in Jerusalem for Passover and what is now called "Palm Sunday" is often called His "Triumphal Entry" as crowds line the streets, spreading their cloaks and waving palm branches. Shouts of "Hosanna" came from the crowd, recognizing Him as King, but Jesus was also seen as a political threat by religious leaders and Roman authority fearing the populace would unite behind Jesus leading to unrest.
Jesus was arrested on charges of sedition, in the late evening after the Passover meal. He appeared before the Sanhedrin immediately, accused of blasphemy and claiming to be King of the Jews. He is judged guilty, condemned to die on a cross.
Sources other than the bible mention Jesus death by crucifixion and even document events that coincided with Jesus' death on the cross. Historical accounts by Jewish historian Flavius Josephus and Roman Historian, Tacitus, both corroborate the existence of Jesus and His execution under Pontius Pilate.

Just a month before the start of his trial, Sean "Diddy" Combs faces a third indictment.
The new document adds two counts: sex trafficking by force, fraud, or coercion, and transportation to engage in prostitution. The additional charges focus on “Victim-2,” who prosecutors say Combs recruited, harbored, and transported for coerced commercial sex acts between 2021 and 2024. If convicted, the charges could result in more jail time.
Combs pleads not guilty. His legal team argues the allegations are not new and involve the same accusers—former long-term girlfriends who, they say, had consensual sexual relationships with Combs. He insists the encounters prosecutors call “Freak Offs” were mutual decisions between romantic partners to invite others into their relationship. Combs claims the tapes prosecutors plan to introduce as evidence will show all parties as willing participants.
Prosecutors say “Victim-1,” also known as Cassie Ventura, plans to testify under her real name. They have asked Judge Arun Subramanian to allow witnesses 2, 3, and 4 to remain anonymous. They argue that revealing their names could lead to significant embarrassment, anxiety, social stigma, and media harassment. The witnesses are also concerned their testimony may affect personal relationships and future job prospects.
What else is going on with Diddy? Tune into Crime Stories for updates.

A California mother is now charged with murder after driving drunk and killing her 4-year-old daughter.
Juliette Acosta, 26, crashed her SUV into a canal. The sound of the crash was loud enough to alert nearby residents, including Acosta’s uncle and a neighbor. Her Subaru SUV landed partially submerged in the water. Acosta’s uncle jumped in, helped her out of the vehicle, but could not find 4-year-old Reagan.
When officers arrived, Acosta was no longer at the scene. A deputy immediately entered the water to search the vehicle and found Reagan Herrin still buckled in her seat. With help from Acosta’s uncle, the deputy freed the girl and began CPR as an ambulance arrived.
Deputies later found Acosta at a nearby home, reportedly taking a bath. She was arrested and initially charged with felony DUI. Her blood alcohol content was nearly three times the legal limit.
Acosta now faces charges of murder, drunk driving, and several related offenses. She remains in the county jail on a no-bail warrant.
