Madlanga Commission Of Inquiry Hearing
The Madlanga Commission of Inquiry was formally known as the Judicial Commission of Inquiry into Criminality, Political Interference, and Corruption in the Criminal Justice System. Chaired by retired Constitutional Court Justice Mbuyiseli Madlanga, the Commission of Inquiry represents one of South Africa's most significant probes into the integrity of its policing and judicial structures. The commission's terms of reference include investigating political meddling in police investigations, corruption within SAPS, the National Prosecuting Authority (NPA), and the judiciary, as well as the role of external influences in undermining justice. The high-profile judicial inquiry will hear allegations of criminality, political interference, and corruption in South Africa’s criminal justice system. The commission aims to uncover deep-rooted issues that have plagued the South African Police Service (SAPS) and related institutions, including allegations of sophisticated criminal syndicates infiltrating high-level operations. Claims were made by KwaZulu-Natal (KZN) Police Commissioner Lieutenant General Nhlanhla Mkhwanazi during a press briefing in July 2025. He highlighted the abrupt disbanding of a specialised task team probing assassinations linked to political figures, claiming it was done without his consultation and to protect connected individuals. He also pointed to a controversial drug bust involving Sibiya's nephew, who was allegedly released under dubious circumstances, and revealed cellphone records tying a close associate of Mchunu, identified as Brown Mogotsi, to criminal networks.

Free State Asbestos Corruption Trial
The Free State Asbestos Corruption charges have been brought against former Free State Premier Ace Magashule, businessman Edwin Sodi, five companies and 16 co-accused. The charges relate to a R255 million tender awarded in 2014 for the auditing and removal of asbestos roofs in the Free State. Magashule, Sodi, the five companies. and the co-accused are accused of orchestrating a scheme that diverted public funds intended for the removal of hazardous asbestos from homes in the province's poorest communities. A R255 million contract was awarded in 2014 to a joint venture between Sodi's Blackhead Consulting and Diamond Hill Trading, owned by the late businessman Igo Mpambani. The State alleges that the contract was irregularly awarded, with kickbacks provided to some of the accused. Instead of effectively removing asbestos from about 30 000 homes, only R21 million worth of work was reportedly completed, with the remainder of the funds allegedly misappropriated. Magashule, who was the Free State Premier at the time, faces accusations of receiving various benefits, including school tuition for a Gupta associate's daughter, electronic tablets, and R250,000 for travel expenses to Cuba. These alleged gratifications were reportedly facilitated through payments made by Mpambani's company, following email requests from Magashule's former personal assistant, Moroadi Cholota.

Cole Goldberg Trial
Cole Goldberg faces charges of trying to murder his girlfriend while they were out boating in South Florida. Goldberg, 26, is charged with attempted second-degree murder after prosecutors say he tried to strangle his then-girlfriend, Caroline Schwitzsky, a Miami-based talent agent, while the two were attending a 'Boca Bash' event on April 24, 2022. The couple, who had been dating for approximately a year at the time of the incident, got into an argument while aboard a boat at the event. Goldberg physically held Schwitzsky and tried to prevent her from leaving. Schwitzsky eventually jumped off the boat and tried to swim to another boat nearby, prompting Goldberg to jump into the water after her. A witness from the second boat told police that once in the water, Goldberg 'grabbed Schwitzsky by the throat with both hands, attempting to strangle her and was holding her under the water in a complete rage'. People on the second boat were able to rescue Schwitzsky but prevented Goldberg from getting onto their boat. When police arrived at the scene, Goldberg was swimming between the two boats.

Kouri Richins Trial
Kouri Richins has been dubbed the 'Moscow mule killer'. Richins is charged with murder and drug possession. The mom of three later self-published an illustrated book about an angelic father watching over his sons. Prosecutors say that she slipped five times the lethal dose of fentanyl into a Moscow mule cocktail she made for her husband, Eric Richins, amid marital disputes and fights over a multimillion-dollar mansion she ultimately purchased as an investment. It has subsequently emerged that Richins had googled 'luxury prisons for the rich in America' and 'Is naxolone similar to heroin'. It has also been revealed that Richins also searched if police can see deleted texts, if cops can force you to take a lie-detector test, and how long life insurance payouts take. After Eric's death, Kouri wrote a book titled 'Are You With Me?' - a picture book that aspires to help children cope after the death of a loved one.
