family losing their money or losing their house.” The defendant faces up to 25 years in prison if convicted of the most serious charges Four of the aggravated-vehicular homicide charges are related to

fentanyl at the hospital Members of the Huntley family said DeAngelo showed no remorse during his court appearance “You sat and let your attorney say not guilty when you know what you did,” Huntley’s wife and it just shows you don’t care about what you did.”  3 caller told Suffolk 911 operators that DeAngelo was suffering from an overdose and had been administered Narcan a nasal spray that

Massapequa and other communities to take a hard look at the disadvantages facing people of color and how those hurdles shape their overall lives and well-being a new report claims little attention has been paid to residential segregation — the process of sorting people into particular neighborhoods or communities based on race — and how it plays a role in connecting people in specific neighborhoods
