Let’s talk baseball for Mother’s Day ⚾️
An interview I hope will make everyone smile, check out my conversation on NewsNation Live with Roberto Clemente Jr. the son of baseball legend Roberto Clemente on the love of the game, his family’s legacy, love and respect for his mother and the future of the MLB.

Clemente Jr. opened up about his mother, Vera, who shaped his life both on and off the field sharing her lasting impact on his life.

Clemente Jr. also shared his thoughts on the state of MLB in 2025, spotlighting the Pittsburgh Pirates, Dodgers, and Mets as this season’s top contenders. “It’s powerful to see the Pirates leading again,” he said, calling it a full-circle moment for his family.

We also talked about the Tornado Bat, a modern twist on the traditional bat that’s changing how players train and perform, and about the new Pope’s love of baseball, showing just how far the game’s influence reaches.

This was one of my favorite interviews on our show!

➡️ Behind the scenes of the investigation inside the Suffolk County Crime Lab - As we continue to learn more details about this disturbing case I wanted to share some BTS video I took September 14, 2021 while filming a documentary on the story. We got a first hand look at the M-Vac System being used by investigators to pull hard to extract DNA from the crime scenes - which has allegedly linked suspect to 6 victims so far. We were given exclusive access to the lab at the time to see the machine and check out how the advanced technology is being used to test difficult samples, such as porous or rough surfaces (they used examples of ropes, rocks, and gloves ) a system they were using to re-examine previously tested items.

The M-Vac is a wet-vacuum DNA collection system which uses a solution sprayed onto the surface while simultaneously being vacuumed off of the surface. It creates a “mini-hurricane” that loosens the DNA material which is transferred to the collection bottle and later concentrated onto a filter.

A hair found on 's body was matched, with 99.96-percent certainty, to Heuermann, prosecutors said, and hairs found on 's body also matched Heuermann with 99.96-percent certainty.
