| Police Have Positively Identified Christina Grimmie's Murderer Posted: 11 Jun 2016 02:37 PM PDT Now the information is starting to flow. Orlando police have positively identified Christina Grimmie's murderer, not even a full day after the musician was so tragically and publicly murdered after a performance in the central Florida city. Related: Christina's Manager Speaks Out According to Orlando cops, the man is 27-year old, and from nearby St. Petersburg, Florida -- just a two-hour drive from Orlando. Police are confident in saying the man's name is Kevin James Loibl. They believe he drove from his home in St. Petersburg to the event Friday night in Orlando while making plans to return to St. Petersburg after the show. Obviously, that's a sign that at least at some point in the process, he felt like he was going to get away with the crime. Related: Adam Levine Is Heartbroken Over Christina's Death Loibl committed suicide after Christina's brother tackled him to prevent him from escaping or harming other people after he walked up and fired on the singer after the show. Orlando police have released this picture of Loibl (below): Police have searched Loibl's home, though there's no indication yet about what they found. Such a needless, senseless act of violence. RIP, Christina. [Image via Jaime Espinoza/WENN/Orlando Police.] |

Now, more celebs and entertainment industry insiders are trying to wrap their head around it, like Brian Teefey -- the man who was Grimmie's longtime manager and also, coincidentally, Selena Gomez's stepfather. Related: Adam Levine Is Heartbroken Over Christina's Death Speaking in a statement to PEOPLE, Teefey said:
And Teefey continued, obviously incredibly heartbroken:
In light of that -- the sacrifices the family has made on Christina's behalf, and the challenges they now face in light of the tragedy -- Teefey has been motivated to start a GoFundMe page to raise money in honor of the singer to help her family.

An alum of The Voice, Grimmie was performing in Orlando on Friday night when a reportedly 'deranged' fan shot her, severely wounding her, before shooting and killing himself.

| Adam Levine Shares Touching Photo, Message On The Voice Alum Christina Grimmie's Death Posted: 11 Jun 2016 09:34 AM PDT Ugh. Late last night, when it wasn't clear whether or not Christina Grimmie would survive a shooting after a Florida concert, The Voice coach Adam Levine took to Instagram with a poignant message for the performer. Related: Christina May Have Been Shot By 'Deranged Fan' The Maroon 5 frontman -- who had Grimmie on his season 6 team of the reality music competition -- shared a photo of the two of them together (above), while delivering a very serious and sad message (below):
Obviously, Grimmie has since passed away after Levine made the post. So horribly, horribly sad. Our thoughts continue to be with Christina's friends, family, and loved ones during this difficult time. [Image via Adam Levine/Instagram.] |
| Christina Grimmie May Have Been Fatally Shot By A 'Deranged Fan,' According To Reports Posted: 11 Jun 2016 08:59 AM PDT This is so awful. As we reported, The Voice alum Christina Grimmie was shot and killed at a show on Friday night in Orlando, Florida -- and now, police are zeroing in on why. Related: Boyfriend Allegedly Recorded Rape & Murder Of 15-Year-Old Girl According to Orlando Police Chief John Mina, it appears that a deranged fan is the one responsible for shooting and killing Grimmie. Mina said, simply, at a press conference:
According to authorities, the fan apparently traveled from elsewhere in Florida to Orlando carrying two handguns and a hunting knife with the intent to commit the crime. After the shooting, Grimmie's older brother Marcus tackled him to the ground, at which point the suspect killed himself. Police said they were working to release his name later on Saturday morning. And Mina did not have a good motive for the crime other than the randomness of it, saying:
He also gave a nod to Marcus' quick-thinking actions that could have prevented further loss of life by immediately tackling the suspect to the ground:
So, so sad. RIP, Christina. [Image via Jaime Espinoza/WENN.] |

| Posted: 11 Jun 2016 07:54 AM PDT He said, she said, but in such a serious and sad situation... While Amber Heard continues to claim her motivation is far from financial in a bid to get a restraining order against Johnny Depp, the actor's insiders are very skeptical that the whole thing may be a money grab. Related: Benicio Del Toro Defends Johnny & Goes After Amber! The new theories from Depp's camp are centering around a letter Amber's lawyer sent to Jake Bloom -- Johnny's entertainment lawyer -- a few weeks ago, just days after the alleged infamous iPhone attack. The letter read, in part:
The letter also made a list of financial demands on Heard's part, which Johnny's camp now alleges is, of course, just a shakedown. On the other hand, though, sources close to Amber are telling TMZ that the letter and the demands are very routine in a case like this -- and merely meant to sustain Amber through a difficult time as she leaves Johnny and the courts decide what to do. Either way, Depp has made a counteroffer of Heard, apparently, but it does not yet appear that her lawyers have responded to it. And the drama continues... [Image via Getty Images.] |
