SUMMARY: Key swing states will determine the outcome of the election, with both candidates focusing their efforts there.

Currently, Trump has a narrow lead in Arizona and Wisconsin, with a virtual tie in Michigan and slight advantages in Nevada, Georgia, and North Carolina. Pennsylvania, with 19 electoral votes, may be pivotal. The interactive map will track electoral votes as they come in on election night.

SUMMARY: Of course! Please provide the content you’d like me to summarize, and I’ll help with it.

Patrenia Butler-Turner was missing for nearly a decade when authorities announced a tragic breakthrough.

Police investigators had found her skeletal remains behind a storage facility off Highway 111 in Pontoon Beach, IL. The Madison County State‘s Attorney charged 57-year-old Roger Dale Sutton with her murder.

Now, nearly two years later, Sutton is on trial for Butler-Turner’s murder. During opening statements at trial, FOX 2 learned the defendant’s own nephew is the one responsible for helping police and prosecutors solve the case.

Beyer testified that a Christmas commercial in 2022 motivated him to finally tell police that he saw his uncle strangle a woman to death during a crack cocaine-fueled night in 2013. He told jurors he’d been haunted every waking hour since, until he brought himself to walk into the Pontoon Beach Police Department to tell investigators where to find the body.
