Gilgo Beach suspected serial killer Rex Heuermann will appear in court on Tuesday for the first time since he pleaded not guilty in the bombshell case two weeks ago. Mr Heuermann will face a hearing at Suffolk County Court in Long Island, New York, according to court filings. It comes days after authorities revealed that a “massive amount” of evidence had been recovered from Mr Heuermann’s home in Massapequa – and after his estranged wife Asa Ellerup pleaded for privacy, saying the couple’s children “cry themselves to sleep” over the shock arrest and that she herself often wakes up “shivering” from the trauma. The 59-year-old suspect was arrested on 13 July and charged with six counts of murder in the deaths of Amber Castello, Megan Waterman and Melissa Barthelemy. He is also the main suspect in Maureen Brainard-Barnes’ killing. The women, all sex workers in their 20s, went missing in 2009 and 2010. Their remains were later found along a stretch of roadway in the Long Island shoreline community of Gilgo Beach. Mr Heuermann pleaded not guilty in his first court appearance on 14 July, where he cried: “I didn’t do this.” Read More Rex Heuermann’s wife pleads to be left alone after his arrest for Gilgo Beach murders Police rule out link between Gilgo beach killings suspect and unsolved murders in Atlantic City in 2006 How the Gilgo Beach serial killer turned the Long Island shore into a graveyard

The Maryland man who found the body of 37-year-old Rachel Morin said “he had a feeling” about the tunnels where she was found dead off the Ma and Pa Trail. Michael Gabriszeski, 49, told local news outlet WMAR-2 News that he joined the search for Morin after hearing about her disappearance from his daughter who was friends with Morin. Morin, a mother of five, went missing on Saturday after going for a jog on the trail. The following day, her body was located off the trail by Mr Gabriszeski. Mr Gabriszeski said he told police to search tunnels that exist around the Ma and Pa Trail because he had a bad feeling about them. “I kept telling them to search the tunnels because I had a feeling about those tunnels,” Mr Gabriszeski said. “I walked forward to search the one tunnel, and they searched the one, and that’s where they found her.” Mr Gabriszeski reported Morin’s body to the police around 1.30pm on Sunday. The Bel Air mother was found in a tunnel off of a trail. Morin initially left her home around 6pm on Saturday to go for a jog. When she failed to return five hours later, her boyfriend called the police to report her missing. An extensive search was conducted with authorities searching the trail and surrounding areas. The Harford County Medical Examiner’s Office has not yet disclosed Morin’s manner of death but authorities in the Sheriff’s Office say foul play is suspected. A homicide investigation is ongoing. Anyone with information pertaining to Morin or with photos and videos taken the day of her disappearance should contact the Harford County Sheriff’s Office. Mr Gabriszeski said he hopes locating Morin’s body can result in a “a final resting place” so “that door can be finally closed” for the Morin family. “[I hope] they can get the investigation on and, hopefully, catch the person who did this trifling act,” Mr Gabriszeski said. He added that whoever is responsible for Morin’s death should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Bel Air is a community of roughly 10,000 people and has a low crime rate. Harford County sheriff Jeffery Gahler said the death of Morin has shocked the county. “We are a county that enjoys very low crime,” Mr Gahler told Fox News Digital. ”Our community is rightly very concerned,” Mr Gahler said. Authorities have no suspects at the moment and said it could be anyone who committed a random act of violence to a more planned attack or somebody that Morin knew.

The Russian envoy attending the United Nations Security Council meeting on president Vladimir Putin’s behalf was told to “stop the war” after he objected to Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky’s speech on Wednesday. Russia’s ambassador to the UN Vassily Nebenzia protested the council president’s decision to allow Mr Zelensky to speak before the 15 council members. “We would like to ask you on what basis you are proposing to allow president Zelensky to speak before the members of the council, many of whom are represented by the heads of states and governments,” the Russian envoy said, accusing the Albanian state of demonstrating “open disregard for the procedures and practices of the UN security council”. Albanian prime minister Edi Rama shot back at the Russian leader: “I must say that coming from you all this lecture of violating the rules in this building is quite an impressive shot.” “You stop the war and president Zelensky will not take the floor,” he said, after noting the objection flagged by the Russian leader over the Ukrainian leader speaking before the council members had addressed the meeting. Mr Rama also cited the council rule allowing a non-member to speak first and added that “this is not a special operation by the Albanian presidency”, eliciting laughter with a quip about Russia’s insistence on referring to its offensive against Ukraine as a “special military operation”. Another heated exchange erupted at the table after Mr Nebenzia referred to Mr Rama as Albania’s prime minister and a Nato member instead of as the council president but Mr Rama declared: “I take note, and we’ll continue with our session.” Shortly after, Mr Zelensky took to X and thanked the Albanian leader for “correctly handling Russia” as he shared a video clip of the heated exchange. “Dear @EdiRamaal, today at the UNSC you showed the world how to correctly handle Russia, its lies, and its hypocrisy. I thank you for steering the presidency in such a principled manner,” he said on Twitter. The second day of the UN meeting in New York was flooded with speculations on the Ukrainian president and Russia’s top diplomat Sergei Lavrov clashing for the first time in person since the invasion in Ukraine started in February last year. The two were either expected to clash, speak or totally avoid each other. In the end, Mr Zelensky and Sergei Lavrov avoided staring each other down across the UN Security Council’s famous horseshoe-shaped table as the former left before Mr Lavrov arrived. Mr Zelensky denounced Russia as “a terrorist state” while Russian ambassador Vassily Nebenzia sat facing him near the other end of the table’s arc. As the Ukrainian president launched into his remarks, the Russian briefly looked at his phone, then tucked the device away. Mr Zelensky left before Mr Lavrov’s arrival, which happened as US secretary of state Antony Blinken was accusing Russia of having “shredded” key provisions of the UN Charter. Mr Lavrov blamed the West for “a shaking of global stability as well as the exacerbation and the fomenting of new hotbeds of tension”. He said “the US and its satellites have egregiously and openly interfered in the domestic affairs of Ukraine,” heightening the risks of global conflict. He insisted that Russia has “fully” respected the provisions of the UN charter “in an interconnected way”.
