Court documents showed that authorities booked Rice on a probation violation after he tested positive for THC. The court ordered him to serve 30 days in county jail as part of his sentence linked to felony charges stemming from the crash. Records also showed he underwent knee surgery prior to his booking and received permission to visit Parkland Hospital in Dallas for rehabilitation.
Rice pleaded guilty in July 2025 to two third-degree felony charges connected to the collision and received five years’ probation and a 30-day jail sentence. He also agreed to pay medical expenses for the victims.
Authorities said Rice drove at speeds nearing 120 mph before the crash and left the scene before police arrived. He later surrendered to an arrest warrant and took responsibility for the incident in a statement.
The NFL suspended Rice for six games last season for violating its personal conduct policy. He played 11 games, finishing with 53 receptions for 571 yards and five touchdowns.
Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said the team expected Rice to report to training camp at the end of July and said the team would work to integrate him back into practice following his return.
]]>The proposal would transfer oversight of permits for produced water from the Railroad Commission of Texas to the TCEQ and require the agency to set treatment standards for the reuse of wastewater from oil and gas extraction.
Supporters say Texas should expand alternative water sources as population growth, industrial demand and recurring drought increase pressure on freshwater supplies. They cite estimates from Texas A&M that the oil and gas industry produces more than 20 million barrels of wastewater daily and note that most of it is currently disposed of through underground injection.
Environmental groups and other critics have raised concerns about the proposal, citing potential contaminants in produced water, including heavy metals, radioactive materials and other chemicals linked to oil and gas activity. They have also called for stricter standards, additional testing and an extension of the public comment period.
Debate over the proposal also includes House Bill 49, which would provide legal protections to companies that comply with state regulations if health issues later emerge from approved reuse projects.
The TCEQ has held a public hearing on the proposal and will review submitted comments before deciding whether to proceed with the rule changes. Comments may be submitted electronically and must reference Project Rule Number 2026-006-309-OW.

]]>The allegations were made during a press conference on Tuesday by 18 individuals who identified themselves as former bodyguards, drivers and employees of Co. They alleged that they delivered suitcases containing funds allegedly derived from kickbacks connected to flood control projects.
During the briefing, the individuals presented photographs showing Cuneta, Pangilinan and several other personalities with people identified as employees of Co’s company, Misibis Aviation and Development Corporation. However, they did not directly identify Pangilinan as a recipient of any money.
In a social media post, Cuneta rejected the allegations and said the photograph shown during the press conference was taken during a visit to Marawi.
Cuneta said she had documented the trip in a vlog uploaded in July 2025 and described the visit as an opportunity to thank local officials and residents for supporting Pangilinan.
She also said that she and her family earn their livelihood through work and denied any involvement in the alleged scheme.
Pangilinan likewise denied the allegations and warned that he would pursue legal action against those making the claims.
The senator said the allegations were baseless and claimed that his name was dragged into the controversy because of reports that he may chair a Senate Blue Ribbon subcommittee that would investigate the alleged flood control scam.
Also named by the former associates during the press conference was Arnold Clavio, who denied the allegations and said he would address the matter in court.
Clavio said the accusations lacked evidence and maintained that he had nothing to hide.
In a statement, GMA Network said it takes matters involving the integrity of its journalists seriously and would evaluate the issue further.
The network also urged the public not to draw conclusions based on unverified information.
The allegations emerged amid ongoing scrutiny of alleged irregularities involving flood control projects and campaign donations linked to Co, who faces legal complaints and is reportedly outside the Philippines. No court has ruled on the allegations raised during the press conference.
