Jurors found Naresh Bhatt guilty of first-degree murder in the killing of his wife, Mamta Kafle. They also found him guilty of defiling and concealing Kafle's body. The verdict came Tuesday after nearly six weeks of testimony from numerous witnesses, including Bhatt, who admitted to dismembering and disposing of Kafle's body in surprise testimony last week. Bhatt claimed he didn't kill his wife, but found her dead from an apparent suicide. But the prosecution told the jury not to believe Bhatt's "made up crazy story" during closing arguments earlier Tuesday. "The defendant murdered Mamta Kafle. The defendant dismembered Mamta Kafle, and the defendant got rid of her like garbage," Senior Assistant Commonwealth's Attorney Sarah Sami said. Kafle's body was never found after she disappeared from their Manassas Park home in July 2024. “He gave her a final resting place of the landfill in Luray, Virginia. Mamta will always be missing for that family there. Always be missing. We know she’s dead, but she is missing because they will never be able to give her her last rights. She’s in pieces, crushed in some landfill somewhere. That is what this family will have to live with," Sami said. #washingtondc #districtofcolumbia #Maryland #NorthernVirginia #dctiktok #dmvtiktok #nareshbhatt #mamtakafle #truecrime #truecrimetiktok #truecrimetok

The White House is locked down Monday morning after a driver crashed into a security barrier in Lafayette Park. Someone jumped over a White House security barrier at a different location at about the same time, and investigators are trying to determine if the two are connected, a source familiar with the investigation said. Secret Service agents ordered journalists to stay in the briefing room in the West Wing. Video shot by Martin Austermuhle of The Washington Sun shows a smoking silver sedan on a brick walkway just north of the White House. Secret Service officers appear to talk with the driver as National Guard troops stand by. “Get on the ground!” someone is heard shouting as the driver clashes with officers. The suspect was detained and the situation is contained, a law enforcement official told NBC News. It wasn’t immediately clear why the driver crashed. The person who jumped a security barrier did so a short walk away, at Pennsylvania Avenue and 17th Street, a source said. #washingtondc #maryland #virginia #pgcounty #dc #districtofcolumbia #dmv #northernvirginia #alexandriava #northernva #arlingtonva #fairfaxcounty #nova #md #mocomd #pgcountymd

Prosecutors are walking the jury along the seemingly endless errands Naresh Bhatt was running on the day of and days after his wife went missing in 2024. Buying heavy duty gloves from Home Depot. Heavy duty garbage bags from Lidl. Air freshners, cleaning sprays, and clorox wipes for Walmart, making several trips to multiple stores, some of them on the same day. #DCtiktok #washingtondc #districtofcolumbia #DMVtiktok #maryland #NorthernVirginia #Virginia #Nareshbhatt #truecrimetok #truecrime #mamtakafle

D.C.’s Democratic nominee for Congress, Robert White, must resign his D.C. Council seat by Election Day to be eligible to take Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton's office, according to a recent opinion by the D.C. attorney general. A little-known law from 1970 that lays out the qualifications for the office clearly states the candidate can hold no other paid public office on the date of his election. The attorney general’s office told White that in order for him to qualify, he must resign his Council seat before Tuesday, City Cast DC first reported. “We’re continuing to explore options until Monday,” White told reporters Wednesday. “But I want to be very clear, I’m not going to do anything that’s gonna jeopardize my ability to serve this city in Congress. "There’s still some open legal questions," he said. "If we can get a clear enough read by then and there are options, we’ll take those options. If not, I will have to resign. But I don’t agree with the reading … I didn’t expect this interpretation from the attorney general. We continue to have a disagreement. But spoken to many lawyers who read the law as I do, but that’s what happens sometimes.” White said he learned of the qualification requirement around the time he was filing to run. #DCtiktok #washingtondc #districtofcolumbia #DMVtiktok #maryland #NorthernVirginia #Virginia

The Edward Charles Foundation, a federally certified 501c3 charity in Beverly Hills, California, has received more than $12 million dollars from Prince George’s County in recent years. Most of that money has been directed through the foundation to Community on the Frontline, an organization run by Janna Parker, whom Prince George’s County Council Chair Krystal Oriadha has said is her best friend. Following an I-Team story about more than $8.6 million dollars in grant money given to the Foundation this year alone, County Executive Aisha Braveboy and Oriadha called for the funds to be returned. Late last week, the county executive’s office confirmed the Foundation returned about $7.6 million dollars to the county. In a statement to News4, an official with the Foundation said it’s fully cooperating with the county’s request. It’s unclear, however, whether it intends to return funds received in prior budget cycles. This week, the I-Team’s Tracee Wilkins visited its office in Beverly Hills. #dmvtiktok #maryland #pgcounty #princegeorgescounty
