Is Friends still on your binge list?  10 timeless TV shows still loved by fans

Bryan Kohberger has pleaded guilty to four counts of first-degree murder and one count of felony burglary for the killing of four young university students in 2022 in Idaho. He will get four consecutive life sentences without parole, and a 10-year sentence for the burglary charge, according to US media reports. &nbsp;For the time being, he has avoided the death penalty, shocking the loved ones of the victims. The case is sensational for multiple reasons: similarities to the Dexter TV series, lack of a motive, and the fact that Bryan had studied criminal justice, forensics and psychology.<h2>What happened in Idaho? The Dexter killer murders of 2022</h2>On the night of 13 November 2022, University of Idaho students Madison Mogen, Kaylee Goncalves, Xana Kernodle and Ethan Chapin were stabbed to death in an off-campus home in Moscow, Idaho. The victims, aged between 20 and 21, were sleeping when they were murdered. At least two people survived the stabbing attack.<h2>Dexter killer: Who is Bryan Kohberger?</h2>The suspect of the Idaho stabbing murders, Bryan Christopher Kohberger, has an associate degree in psychology and studied forensics. Bryan, born on 21 November 1994, &nbsp;has a masters degree in Criminal Justice from DeSales University in Pennsylvania and was pursuing a criminology PhD at the Washington State University. H was also working as a teaching assistant in the university. His campus was some 13 kilometres away from Moscow, Idaho.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.wionews.com/videos/meghalaya-murder-case-police-reveal-2-weapons-used-to-kill-raja-raghuvanshi-1750251344981/embed">https://www.wionews.com/videos/meghalaya-murder-case-police-reveal-2-weapons-used-to-kill-raja-raghuvanshi-1750251344981/embed</a>&nbsp;According to reports, Kohnberger had exhibited behaviour issues that led to his removal as a teaching assistant in December 2022, a few weeks after the murders. There had been complaints against his conduct towards women.&nbsp;The 30-year-old had been diagnosed with obsessive–compulsive disorder and autism spectrum disorder.<h2>Why did he kill four students?</h2>Kohberger was arrested in December 2022 and charged with the murders. No credible relationship has been established between the victims and Bryan Kohberger, making it a very curious case.The motive also continues to be unclear. According to reports, Bryan had sent Instagram messages to one of the victims and had photos of her, but she did not respond.<h2>Idaho stabbings: Similarities with Dexter TV series</h2>Brian was dubbed the ‘Idaho Dexter killer’ in a section of the media due to similarities with the crime series Dexter. Actions of the titular character of the series, Dexter Morgan, had striking similarities to those of Bryan. In the TV show, Morgan is a serial killer who targeted other criminals. The other parallels with the series are the use of knives in the murders, and the premeditated and calculated nature of the murders.<h2>How was Bryan linked to the crime and arrested?</h2>For many days, the crime remained a mystery case. Later, the investigators used DNA from a knife sheath at the crime scene, eventually linking Kohberger to the murders. They were able to zero in on him by tracking his vehicle and mobile phone activity at the time of the killings.Mobile phone data showed that he visited the crime area multiple times. Surveillance cameras had captured his white sedan circling the house. He was arrested in Pennsylvania weeks after the killings.<h2>'We are beyond furious': Guilty plea upsets Idaho stabbing victim families</h2>The likelihood of Bryan avoiding death penalty has upset victim families. According to attorney Shanon Gray, the family of Kaylee Goncalves said: “We are beyond furious at the State of Idaho. They have failed us. Please give us some time. This was very unexpected.”&nbsp;Aubrie Goncalves, Kaylee’s 18-year-old sister said: “Bryan Kohberger facing a life in prison means he would still get to speak, form relationships, and engage with the world."&nbsp;"Meanwhile, our loved ones have been silenced forever,” AP news agency quoted her as saying. &nbsp;<h2>Idaho killer avoids the death penalty: Autism alibi</h2>Kohberger’s lawyers had earlier tried to get the death penalty removed, noting that he had been diagnosed with autism. It is rare that plea agreements are rejected. If it happens, he could withdraw his guilty plea. The Idaho Dexter killer is not yet out of the woods, but could escape the gallows. One question remains: Did he use all his knowledge of criminology, criminal justice, forensics and psychology to carry out what he thought was a ‘perfect crime’? And without a proper motive, was he just carrying out an experiment?&nbsp;

For the time being, Bryan Kohberger has avoided the death penalty, shocking the loved ones of the victims. The case is sensational for multiple reasons: similarities to the Dexter TV series, lack of a motive, and the fact that Bryan had studied criminal justice, forensics and psychology.

Dexter Scott King, son of Martin Luther King, dies at 62; here is what caused his death

A 28-year-old man named Aaftab Amin Poonawala was arrested in India’s capital Delhi for allegedly killing his live-in partner Shraddha Vikas Walker, on Saturday. The case has since shocked the nation and continues to do so, as we learn more about the gruesome details emerging amid the ongoing investigation.&nbsp;

According to the Delhi police, the 26-year-old Walker was allegedly strangled to death by Poonawala, who then chopped her body into 35 parts and&nbsp;bought a refrigerator to keep them. 
 
Meanwhile, media reports said that over the span of two to three months the accused scattered them in the city’s Mehrauli forest and surrounding areas and reportedly said that he was “inspired” by the American crime show ‘Dexter’, in which the protagonist is a forensics expert who leads a double life as a serial killer.&nbsp; 
 
From Mumbai to Delhi

Media reports suggest that Poonawala and Walker met in Mumbai and started dating soon after, however, her family had not approved of their inter-faith relationship. Subsequently, they moved to Delhi in the first week of May and were living at a friend’s house before renting an apartment in south Delhi’s Chhattarpur area, a police source told Hindustan Times.&nbsp;

“The two met on a dating app in Mumbai. They were in a live-in relationship for three years and had shifted to Delhi,” Ankit Chauhan, Additional Deputy Commissioner of Police (DCP) of South Delhi told ANI news agency. Soon after, Walker reportedly began pressuring Poonawala for marriage when their relationship became tense which led to frequent fights, Aaftab said during the interrogation.

On May 18, following an argument, Poonawala allegedly strangled Walker and dismembered her in order to dispose off the body. According to his disclosure statement shared by the police with media, “Poonawala revealed that Walker said something offensive, which left him enraged. The couple had a scuffle in the bedroom. He claims that he pushed Walker on the bed, sat on her chest and choked her, due to which she died.” &nbsp;

The alleged murder and gruesome details&nbsp;

The accused had allegedly bought a 300-litre fridge to keep the victim's body in at least 35 pieces. According to police sources cited in media, Poonawala was a trained chef from a private institute in Mumbai where he was also reportedly trained in cutting meat. It supposedly took him two days to cut Walker’s body and Poonawala claims that he did it with a hacksaw with multiple blades.&nbsp;

However, the police are yet to recover the tool allegedly used to commit the crime. Furthermore, the accused claims that after “chopping the body”, he “washed the blood from them and stuffed them in some plastic bags.” Reportedly, all these plastic bags were then kept in the fridge. &nbsp;&nbsp;

The arrest was made after Walker’s father, Vikash Madan Walker, was led to Delhi from Maharashtra’s Palghar district after lodging a missing person complaint in Mumbai.

India: A fridge, months of cleanup - What we know about the Delhi ‘Dexter’ murder case so far

A 28-year-old Indian man in the capital New Delhi allegedly killed his girlfriend, chopped her into 35 pieces, stored them in a refrigerator he bought for that purpose and then disposed of them across the city for 18 days.

The Delhi Police arrested the accused, Aftab Ameen Poonawalla, on Saturday for the brutal murder of his 26-year-old live-in partner Shraddha Walkar. He has been sent to five-day police custody.

According to reports, the couple is from western Mumbai city in Maharashtra state. Aftab is a food blogger and runs a social media page with his brother Ahad Poonawala.

It was during this time that he met and fell in love with Walkar, and shifted to Delhi after their families were opposed to their marriage because of their faith. The man was from a Muslim household, while the woman was a Hindu.

The couple had been living at a rented apartment in the Chhatarpur area, Mehrauli police told ANI news agency. Both were working at a call centre.

The incident is said to have taken place on May 18 after Walkar started forcing him to marry her, officers said.

Aftab strangled her girlfriend to death and took inspiration from the American crime-drama The Dexter--in which the protagonist is a forensic expert who led a double life as a serial killer--to dispose of her remains.

The incident came to light when Walkar stopped talking to her parents. They grew even more suspicious after checking her social media account, which had no updates.

Then the girl’s father, Vikas, came to Delhi to check on his daughter. But found her flat locked, following which he filed a missing person complaint with the police, detailing her daughter’s boyfriend.

On the basis of his complaint, the police launched an investigation, traced Aftab, and arrested him.

During interrogation, Aftab confessed to the crime and said that they often fought as Walkar was pressurising him for marriage.

Indian man kills girlfriend, chops her into 35 pieces and discards them off across Delhi for 18 days

Eagerly waiting for ‘Dexter’? The makers have just dropped a brand new trailer for the revival show and it's called ‘Dexter: New Blood’.&nbsp;

The trailer was dropped on November 7 as part of the 10-episode revival which picks up a decade after the original show’s finale.&nbsp;

The popular show ended on a note when after faking his death in the 2013 finale, he starts his life anew as a lumberjack in the revival show at Showtime. Dexter Morgan will find him living in Iron lake, New York, under an assumed name and running a sporting goods store.&nbsp;

Original showrunner Clyde Phillips, who left the 2006-13 series midway through its run, has returned for the revival.&nbsp;

In addition to Hall, original series veterans Jennifer Carpenter and John Lithgow will make appearances — presumably in flashbacks, as both of their characters died during the first run.&nbsp;

The cast also includes Clancy Brown, Julia Jones, Alano Miller, Johnny Sequoyah and Jack Alcott; Jamie Chung, Oscar Wahlberg and Katy Sullivan will recur.

David Magidoff joins 'Dexter' revival series

Dexter, one of America`s best known TV serial killers, is on his way back. Cable network Showtime said on Wednesday it had given the go-ahead to a 10-episode revival of 'Dexter,' with star Michael C. Hall once again playing blood spatter specialist Dexter Morgan who works with the Miami police department and moonlights as a vigilante killer. 
 
“We would only revisit this unique character if we could find a creative take that was truly worthy of the brilliant, original series.&nbsp; Well, I am happy to report that (executive producer) Clyde Phillips and Michael C. Hall have found it," Gary Levine, president of entertainment at Showtime said in a statement. 
 
'Dexter' ran for eight seasons until 2013, earning multiple awards and cementing a trend for morally ambiguous anti-heroes on US television that included conflicted mob boss Tony Soprano ('The Sopranos') and the charismatic Don Draper ('Mad Men').

In the series finale, Dexter pulls the plug on his sister Debra`s life support machine, dumps her body at sea and then sails into a hurricane, apparently meeting his death. But the show finished with a brief glimpse of Dexter working as a lumberjack and living alone. 
 
Showtime did not give any clues about the plot of the revival, nor whether any of the show`s other main characters would return. It said it hoped to start production later this year with a tentative broadcast date in the fall of 2021.
