A Judge Gave a One-Word Answer. It Torpedoed the Etan Patz Case.
The 12 jurors considering the fate of a man charged with killing 6-year-old Etan Patz in a SoHo basement wanted guidance. The defendant, Pedro Hernandez, had told investigators over and over that he had killed the boy in 1979. But his first confession came before the police had told him of his right to remain silent. Investigators quickly read him his rights and got him to repeat his words for a video camera. Now, in 2017, the jury asked the judge whether, if they found that Mr. Hernandez's first confession was not voluntary, they should then disregard the later recorded version. The judge, Maxwell Wiley, responded, 'The answer is, 'no.'' On Monday, a federal appeals court said that Justice Wiley's one-word answer had failed to explain a Supreme Court precedent that governs such serial confessions. The three judges ordered that Mr. Hernandez be released from his 25-years-to-life sentence or get a new trial. The stunning ruling revived a seemingly settled case that has frustrated law enforcement officials in New York City for the greater part of 45 years. The investigation into Etan's vanishing — his body has never been found — has been filled with sensational turns, tornadoes of tips and alternative suspects. For Justice Wiley, the decision was the coda to a two-decade career on the bench that ended in April. Reached by phone, Justice Wiley said he had 'happily retired.' Want all of The Times?

Brit pilot jailed in ex-Soviet hell prison could be freed after ex-wife's ‘chilling confession to killing baby' emerges
A BRIT pilot jailed for murder in a hellhole ex-Soviet prison could be freed after his ex-wife 'confessed' to killing their baby daughter. Mohamed Barakat, 46, is serving a 20-year sentence in a high security jail in Kazakhstan but has always maintained his innocence. 10 Bombshell recordings have now emerged of Madina Abdullayeva, 28, apparently admitting to unintentionally causing the death of her daughter Sophia. Barakat was sentenced in 2020 after a judge ruled he smashed his "smiling" baby during a drunken drug-fuelled hotel rampage, crushing her head against a wall. But the chilling audio which has been newly uncovered could mean the commercial pilot, who flew for a subsidiary of Hong Kong Airlines, could be freed or face a retrial. Madina was the main prosecution witness at his trial in Kazakhstan. Barakat received a maximum sentence under the criminal code because of the "aggravating circumstance' of committing the murder 'in a state of alcoholic and drug intoxication', said the appeal court. The country's prosecutor's office recently triggered an investigation 'on newly discovered circumstances', namely a confession by the pilot's glamorous ex-wife that she killed the baby. Detailed analysis including a 'forensic video-phonoscopy examination' reveals the confession to be Madina's voice, the pilot's legal representatives have been informed. It also found there was no tampering of the WhatsApp recording. The pilot himself recorded his ex-wife from inside his prison. 'I kill her….,' Madina is accused of posting, in evidence now being examined by police. 'I know you did,' replied the pilot, who has always maintained his innocence and previously claimed that his wife accidentally killed the child on 24 October 2019, but blamed him. Madin allegedly said on the recorded call to Barakat how she broke Sophia's neck at the hotel in Almaty. 'I left…and then when I come back, she is awake and crying because she's hungry. 'I start to feed her. And then she start to poo… 'And I try to wash her bum. And when I wash her, I break her neck…' She also told him she wanted to have another child with him. In a video made by privately-schooled Barakat, he said of her 'confession': 'Two days ago, we had another argument. 'I told her I would never have another baby with her until she told me what happened to my daughter, Sophia Barakat. 10 'And here you can see, she wrote 'Call me please'. 'And then, she writes 'I kill her'. In later conversations, Madina repeatedly asks him to 'forgive me'. These accounts are startlingly different from the version accepted by judges at the pilot's trial and appeal. The courts ruled that Madina had been beaten by her husband - despite no evidence she had any injuries - and left their hotel room after which he killed the child. The wife then opened the door and picked up the motionless girl, rushing down to the hotel lobby, where she was seen on security cameras. Madina had shouted: 'He killed my child, he hit her,' according to one hotel staff member. Hotel workers said the baby was 'blue'. Earlier they remembered the British girl as 'always smiling' during the family's stay at the Intercontinental Hotel in Almaty. The wife collapsed several times in the lobby as staff called medics who found the baby to be dead. 10 10 There are a host of other inconsistencies regarding the verdict. In turning down an appeal by the pilot, three women judges in 2021 ruled that 'the guilt of the convict [Barakat] was proved by the testimony of a witness - a hotel maid - that she heard the sounds of banging on the wall, after which the crying of the child immediately fell silent'. The judges said: 'More than ten witnesses testified that they saw the woman [Madina] with the child in her arms, who ran to the reception and reported that her drunken husband had killed her child.' Yet law enforcement broke their own rules in using photographs not the corpse to establish fatal wounds. Based on these errors, the court found Sophia died from 'multiple impacts…caused by repeated blows' - namely from Barakat banging his child's head repeatedly against the walls or doors, smashing the child's brain. The pilot was said by the judge to be drunk and under the influence of drugs yet astonishingly no drugs were found in his blood or urine, according to documents in the case. The only evidence of drug use was a toxicology test showing traces of THC in vomit from the hotel mattress, yet the centre has dismissed use of such evidence as unreliable. 'CCTV shows him walking steadily into the hotel, handing balloons to his daughter, and carrying her. Hotel staff said he did not appear drunk,' said his lawyer Din-Mukhamed Narymbetov. Additionally, Madina was the main prosecution witness based on evidence she gave in the aftermath of the killing. 'Her statements were obtained with procedural violations, and she eventually retracted them,' said the lawyer. Barakat said after obtaining his ex-wife's 'confession': 'Madina knows I am innocent. My family knows I'm innocent. The lawyers who stood with me - they know I'm innocent.'

Chris Hughes makes X-rated confession about sex life with JoJo Siwa
Chris Hughes has made an X-rated confession about the cheeky nickname girlfriend JoJo Siwa has given to his private parts. The Love Island reality star, who recently posted a snapshot showing the pair lying in bed onto his Instagram Stories, has opened up about just what goes on behind closed doors. The couple previously confirmed their romance after meeting on Celebrity Big Brother earlier this year. ITV2 matchmaking show star personality Chris, 32, recently flew out to reunite with Dance Moms star JoJo, 22, in LA, before showing they had taken the next step in their relationship with a framed image of the pair in her family home. Now he has admitted to a cheeky sex secret when the lights go out, and said of the singer: 'She calls my balls Jimmy and Timmy.' He added, 'So she must like Jimmy and Timmy.' Chris added how the US star loved 'the rhyming lingo.' He said to E! News, 'She's literally the love of my life, but she's also my best friend. 'We sit and do nothing together.' The now-couple became extremely close while they co-starred on ITV reality show. They spent a large chunk of time in the house cuddling and snuggling, despite JoJo's then-relationship with Australian influencer Kath Ebbs. Just hours after finishing in third place on the ITV series, JoJo dumped Kath at the after-party. Recently, Chris was open and honest about how 'totally in love' he is with JoJo. 'I am really in love with this one,' he told the Daily Mail. 'She is my princess, she is a good one.' It came after he opened up to the Sun's Fabulous Magazine about the backlash he has faced after he went official with their relationship. 'I've had more people call me 'gay' in the last two months of my life than ever before,' he said. 'But it doesn't bother me – as long as people aren't nasty, opinions are fine.' He added, 'Meeting Joelle gave me this magical feeling. She is the most precious person …. I'm obsessed with her. I'd do anything for her.' Discussing their romance, JoJo – who couldn't keep her hands off Chris during their recent trip to LA – also previously told The Guardian, 'It's not platonic any more, and it's been a beautiful development, a beautiful connection, and I'm absolutely head over heels for him and he's the same way. 'I won't ever speak for him, but for me personally, the happiness in my life just radiates off of me right now.'
