“Timmie” Schubert in her North Bay Shore home “This indictment demonstrates that justice has no expiration date Through the relentless dedication of our retired and active law enforcement officers coupled with advances in forensic technology we were able to charge this defendant for the brutal murder of Edna Schubert which has haunted Suffolk County for over two decades,” said Tierney Schubert was a beloved friend to many and whose life was tragically cut short in an act of senseless violence I thank the Suffolk County Police Department’s Homicide Section and the Suffolk County Crime Lab for their hard work in getting us closer to bringing her alleged killer to justice.” “Decades after Edna Shcubert was senselessly murdered during a brutal attack in her own home her perpetrator was finally identified and arrested due to the unrelenting efforts of Homicide Squad detectives,” said Suffolk County Police Commissioner Kevin Catalina “Let this case serve as evidence that no matter how

fingerprint expert Detective Timothy Kelly Kelly compared fingerprints from the crime scene to Ayala’s fingerprints and determined that they were a match Ayala allegedly lived less than 200 yards away from Schubert’s home Further investigation focused on previously untested blood evidence found at the crime scene DNA analysis of stains on Schubert’s pantyhose and a white long-sleeved shirt revealed a mixture of Schubert’s DNA and an unknown individual An investigation into Ayala began and law enforcement learned that Ayala was still alive and living in Talmo members of the Suffolk County Police Department traveled to Georgia to conduct surveillance on Ayala to collect discarded items from him for laboratory analysis to compare to DNA recovered on Schubert’s clothing Law enforcement secured multiple items that Ayala was allegedly observed discarding including multiple lottery scratch-off cards and plastic bottles Those items were brought back to New York and submitted to the Suffolk County Crime Laboratory for analysis DNA from one of the bottles that Ayala allegedly discarded matched the unknown DNA found mixed with Schubert’s DNA from her clothing at the scene by members of the Suffolk County Police Department with assistance from local law enforcement in Georgia Ayala was arraigned on the indictment before Acting Supreme Court Justice Richard I for one count of Murder in the First Degree and two counts of Murder in the Second Degree Justice Horowitz ordered Ayala held without bail during the pendency of the case and faces up to life in prison without the possibility

The April raids are the latest confirmed on the tracker since three in Brentwood and Wyandanch earlier this year "This is what systemic injustice looks like—federal agents patrolling our neighborhoods and tearing families apart during breakfast," Perez said "What happened this morning wasn’t about safety—it was about fear Our community has the right to live without the constant threat of ICE at our doorsteps an immigrant father residing with his adult child was detained by ICE agents during Monday's Fulton Street raid in Brentwood after five plainclothes agents returned following a raid on Sunday in the same area "I woke up to a message on Monday saying 'they came back My dad is missing and I don't know what to do,"' Perez told Patch The organization also reported confirmed ICE raids on April 6 in Central Islip on Applegate Drive, and in North Bay Shore on Candlewood Road. The tracker says agents arrived at both locations in unmarked vehicles around 9 a.m., wearing vests stating "POLICE ERO," ICE's Enforcement and Removal Operations which "manages all aspects of the immigration enforcement process detention and removal of aliens who are subject to removal or are unlawfully present in the U.S The April ICE raids are the most recent reported on the tracker since early 2025 sightings 12 incident where plainclothes ICE agents in unmarked vehicles arrived at a Brentwood deli around 9 a.m.; and the Jan Marshal agents in an unmarked black Ford Explorer made a "targeted visit" at the corner of West Booker and Straight Path in Wyandanch "The events that unfolded on April 6 are a true reflection of injustice and oppression patrolling our neighborhoods and challenging our strength All of this is not a testament of this nation’s greatness but rather this nations’ shortcomings toward our strongest patriots: our immigrants," said Chris Hidalgo "I beg the communities to look out for your brothers and sisters to be aware of your rights and be aware of what’s happening our communities will not fail to exist and together Perez told Patch the ICE tracker was launched in response to the Brentwood raid and to "ensure that accurate information is disseminated and help protect our community from the harmful effects of misinformation and fear."

questions about their campaigns and will be publishing candidate profiles as election day draws near of North Bay Shore is running for election as Suffolk County Legislator for District 9 the eastern portion of Brentwood and a section of the Village of Islandia Her opponent is incumbent Samuel Gonzalez (D) The Republican challenger studied teaching at the National University of El Salvador She previously worked as Program Coordinator for Pronto of Long Island works in Suffolk County Department of Public Works Check out Patch's full Q&A with Vidal below: Patch: The single most pressing issue facing our community is _______ gang activity and the impact of the opioid crisis is hurting the quality of life for residents in the district LD 9 communities needs to focus on renewing the trust between the law enforcement community and residents in order to address these problems * Restore community policing programs in high crime areas and Department of Labor to develop job training and job opportunities for our young people keeping them focused on their future away from predatory gangs * Hold county officials responsible for building better trust and better relationships between law enforcement agencies our residents and business owners * Make the mental health needs created by the opioid and substance abuse crisis a priority in the county government * Restoring funding for county mental health programs * Making sure the Health Department has enough staff and resources to help victims of substance abuse and their families *Focus on better coordination of mental health care services for patients and their families P: What are the critical differences between you and the other candidates seeking this post V: The problems in our community need the attention of a full time Legislator The needs of our constituents in the 9th Legislative District require the dedication of someone who is in the community and available to work with residents and solve the problems in the District that have been neglected for 20 years I will provide full time representation to Brentwood in what way has the current board or officeholder failed the community (or district or constituency) Central Islip and North Bay Shore have been under represented in the County Legislature As a result the needs of our community are often overlooked while our problems grow worse Countywide the crime rate is going down yet in our community the crime rate is actually increasing according the Suffolk County Police Department statistics Our community is unfairly targeted by the Red Light Ticket Program compared to other Legislative Districts which financially hurts our residents Businesses of all kinds are leaving the 9th Legislative District and taking good jobs with benefits with them The closure of the Entemann's facility is just one example The traffic congestion along Suffolk Avenue and Carlton Avenue which are county roads is growing worse each year In each of these policy areas our county leaders have offered no solutions and made little effort to make improvements In order to keep our young people on Long Island P: Describe the other issues that define your campaign platform V: Job creation and improving the business climate needs to be a priority for the 9th Legislative District Building a business friendly environment is a two part approach the county has to work on the crime and traffic problems that have grown worse for the last 20 years the county must address the fiscal crisis it is in Suffolk County can not meaningfully address the priorities in the community without restoring fiscal stability to the county budget * Put a stop to fees and regulations that hurt businesses * End the practice of borrowing money the county can not afford to pay back to cover operating expenses despite raising fees and taxes every year *Work with county and local economic development agencies to bring economic development resources to Brentwood P: What accomplishments in your past would you cite as evidence you can handle this job V: My work at Pronto of Long Island for the past 10 years both as a volunteer and then as their Program Coordinator has prepared me in understanding the problems identified above that our communities are struggling with I also have learned how to work with diverse groups to find common sense solutions to these problems I will be able to use these skills that I have learned to accomplish more for the community that I live in and served for many years P: The best advice ever shared with me was .. so be honest and be true to yourself in everything you do because your actions represent you and the people who surround you" My mother and my my mother in law both shared this advice with me P: What else would you like voters to know about yourself and your positions V: For every milestone in my life whether it has been in my career or as a volunteer I am always committed to do my best to help

He stayed at the house with the bodies for three days, then drove to Maryland and confessed to his mother and sister told the court that after her daughter moved from Jamaica to the United States in 2009 she worked two jobs to save money so she could one day earn her doctoral degree "Shakeela trusted Jerry with her life and also the life of Jaiden Planter and that was her only mistake," her mother said State Supreme Court Justice Richard Ambro imposed the sentence agreed to in a plea deal while Lewis appeared polite and contrite in the courtroom "your actions revealed that you are a monster." Lewis received two second-degree murder sentences of 15 years to life to run consecutively and a first-degree murder sentence of 25 years to life to run concurrent to both of those Winston Planter read a letter he wrote to the parole board he said he didn't recognize his daughter because she had been stabbed in the face so many times "I will never forget the day at the morgue when I could only identify my sweet firstborn daughter by a little mark she had on her toe," he said Planter's parents said they have endured many sleepless nights "Some days I literally have to pinch myself to make sure it's not just a bad dream," Winston Planter said "It's still hard to believe that this is real that this really happened," adding they will never again hear the voices of Shakeela or Jaiden He also lamented that the death penalty was not available in New York State saying that the best he could hope for is for Lewis to spend the rest of his life in prison and not be released on parole "I don't believe anyone who can commit such an evil act can be rehabilitated," he said and what information we do have points toward a sustainable and future-proof headquarters for the company In contrast with the forbidding closed loop design of Apple's sustainable Cupertino campus by Norman Foster "We're really making sure that we make spaces very open and accessible so it's not just for Googlers but for anyone in the area to come by," says David Radcliffe Intended for the North Bay Shore area of Mountain View the renders evoke more of a futuristic college campus feel than that of a secretive technology center and it comprises a number of buildings with large transparent roofs that allow plenty of natural light The renders also show a mash-up of both Ingels' and Heatherwick's style in places (such as the above image and it will be interesting to see if the end result will be a clash of egos or that of two "starchitects" complimenting each other's strengths and cyclists are offered shelter from the rain in some areas with large solar canopies Google says a significant portion of the HQ's energy needs will be met sustainably nor of any other sustainable tech in the works Car parks are hidden from sight underground and the renders show a focus on landscaping in a concerted effort to offer visitors and staff a greater connection with nature Another potentially interesting but vague nugget of information revealed is that the headquarters will apparently be flexible and future-proof "Instead of constructing immoveable concrete buildings we’ll create lightweight block-like structures which can be moved around easily as we invest in new product areas," added Radcliffe we could infer anything from a novel system of movable buildings to simply easily-dismantled prefabs that can be extended when required The video below features Radcliffe and both architects talking a little about the design Source: Google 2016 at 3:47 pm

Points Guy and Waikiki is far from the only — or even best — beach on the island that's no shade intended toward Waikiki as the destination is rich in history and has much to offer But you are missing out on a lot of what makes Oahu special if that's the only slice of it you experience my family decided that we wanted something different from the Oahu we'd experienced before bound for Oahu's North Shore and the area's nicest accommodations — Turtle Bay Resort Here's what we found hiding in plain sight on the island's North Shore Related: These are the best resorts on Oahu A post shared by The Points Guy (@thepointsguy) Turtle Bay Resort is the only true large resort on Oahu's North Shore and it's an institution unto itself as it has been there for over 50 years — since 1972 It sits on a massive 1,400 beachfront acres and has 408 rooms spread out over three wings you may very well encounter green sea turtles there or at least some of its surrounding terrain as it's been used over 150 times as a filming location for movies and shows — "Forgetting Sarah Marshall," "Pirates of the Caribbean," "Hunger Games," "Alvin and the Chipmunks," "Lost," "Jumanji" and "The Amazing Race," to name a few This resort leans into its surf culture history both through its decor and its modern-day offerings including the on-site Jamie O'Brien Surf Experience Turtle Bay Resort is pricey, but the good news is that it is part of the American Express Fine Hotels + Resorts program, which makes that a great pathway to book if you have The Platinum Card® from American Express Booking via the FHR program unlocks late checkout a daily breakfast credit of $110 and a $150 property credit to use once during your stay Expect to spend about $700 per night (before taxes and the $58.99-per-day resort fee) for standard rooms that are a bit over 400 square feet know that parking is an additional $40 per day and valet parking and self-parking are the same price you almost certainly want to rent a car to get here if you plan to do any exploring at all Turtle Bay Resort is on the beach of Oahu's North Shore about a one-hour drive (longer if there's traffic) from Daniel K Turtle Bay had an interesting vibe as there was a large contingent of adults that appeared to be there for a multiday conference but also plenty of families like us that were there on spring break There are multiple shops and a spa on-site — but also offerings for families kids were welcomed right from the start with a visit to the treasure chest of toys next to the check-in desk Because of the large and relatively outdoor nature of the resort it can comfortably cater to both adults and families at the same time The one group that I don't think would be best suited here is rowdy nightlife seekers And while I could see some groups potentially creating their own party at the adults-only pool or lobby bar this isn't really the kind of place that you go for exciting nightlife Let's now head up to a room with a view — which I think all the rooms at Turtle Bay have due to its unique footprint out on this point Our room with two queen beds was absolutely ideal for my two kids and me solid soundproofing and a balcony overlooking the water Previous slideNext slide1 of 6SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY012345The air conditioning was top-notch at keeping the room cool which I never take for granted on an island the room had a minifridge and there was a set of table and chairs which is obviously super handy for easy meals in the room or even doing a little work Previous slideNext slide1 of 2SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY01The bathroom had a nice entryway with a closet bench and plenty of space for luggage or to get ready there was a separate bathroom area with the toilet and shower Previous slideNext slide1 of 4SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY0123Included and add-on activitiesWhile Turtle Bay does have a resort fee of close to $60 per day you'll find a list of daily activities such as lei-making The trick to this is that many of the activities have limited capacity and do fill up so you will need to plan in advance if you want to take advantage of all that is offered know that some of the experiences listed do have an additional fee so don't just assume everything on the board is free The one activity we booked and paid for on our short trip was a horse trail ride There are a number of horse rides available ranging from pony rides for the littlest riders to pricier private sunset rides that lasted about 45 minutes and cost $115 per person (before tip) Previous slideNext slide1 of 2SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY01We walked along the coastline and through the forest a bit on well-trained horses that only occasionally would try and go for some green kind and instructive when something like that would happen Previous slideNext slide1 of 2SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY01Bike ridesBikes were complimentary and a great way to get around though technically only available for 45-minute rentals Golf carts are also available as a way to traverse the massive property they are only available to use when going to or from a booked activity The Nalu Spa at Turtle Bay was a big highlight for me It was not overly fancy and had a relaxing open-air waiting area where you could listen to the ocean I was able to book a same-day 30-minute massage What made me feel good pulling the trigger is that while it was expensive the price wasn't inflated for being shorter than the standard massage it was a full treatment that came with access to all the same amenities as the longer Previous slideNext slide1 of 2SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY01I adored my 30 minutes in the open-air treatment room with a masseuse who was great at checking in on pressure and really made the most of the short time we had by focusing on exactly what I asked for Previous slideNext slide1 of 2SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY01Fitness classes and gymTurtle Bay has a large gym and a separate fitness studio The fitness classes range from high-intensity interval training to yoga Previous slideNext slide1 of 2SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY01Nature centerAt the resort you'll find a really informative nature center with educational displays about the area It's a small but unusual (in a good way) offering and absolutely worth a visit Previous slideNext slide1 of 2SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY01ShopsThere are about a half-dozen (mostly higher-end) shops at Turtle Bay — my favorite was the Surf House Whether you want to play traditional golf or disc golf The resort has not one but two 18-hole golf courses — the Arnold Palmer Course claims to be the No we saw an expansive course near the stables families will likely really appreciate the on-site laundry that guests can access (there are easy-to-operate coin machines in the room) to get everything clean We were grateful to be able to use them before heading to the next stop on our trip If you haven't noticed by now from some of the photos we did not hit the weather lottery while on Oahu's North Shore While this type of weather can happen anywhere my experience is that it does happen more on the northern shore than in some other parts of the island so I'd consider it a higher risk here This meant that our time at the pools and at the beach wasn't as extensive as it would have been if we'd had better weather Even though we didn't use them very much Turtle Bay has three on-site pools that are layered in a way that makes each feel distinct from the others: the main pool the kids pool with a waterslide and the adults-only pool The only pool that was ever busy during our stay was the adults-only pool which was filled in the afternoon and early evening with conferencegoers Previous slideNext slide1 of 5SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY01234My 8-year-old slide tester gave the waterslide a thumbs-up while the hot tub in the adults-only pool area looked lovely the one on the main pool level looked like there was a bit more film and/or scum in it and wasn't very inviting to me there was included reef-safe sunscreen available for use The Turtle Bay Resort is located on the beach where you'll find complimentary beach chairs However, the Kuilima Cove beach that is directly next to the hotel is not the only beach. In fact, the Turtle Bay website lists seven beaches that you can walk to from the resort Previous slideNext slide1 of 5SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY01234Kawela Bay is a little over a mile from the hotel and was my favorite of the bunch as a calm bay that wasn't very busy during my visits This is also where they hold a lot of the surf lessons the bistro just off the lobby where you can get your coffee which is great for those jet-lagged mornings the first few days in Hawaii Previous slideNext slide1 of 2SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY01We really enjoyed the pineapple coconut muffin — just budget accordingly as breakfast for myself and two kids was at least $40 here even when we were ordering very conservatively Previous slideNext slide1 of 2SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY01SunsetAn easy spot to eat outdoors — and enjoy the sunset — is the aptly named Sunset restaurant but despite costing about $135 for two kids and me Previous slideNext slide1 of 3SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY012Beach House by Roy YamaguchiAfter that first meal at Sunset I was worried that the food at Turtle Bay wouldn't be a highlight of the trip that first impression wasn't representative of the whole Our lunch the next day at Beach House by Roy Yamaguchi was excellent even the children's meal ($19) was thoughtfully presented in three courses including a cute salad and quesadilla starter This open-air restaurant is just off the beach and is an absolute star that we all loved Make reservations in advance on OpenTable to ensure you get a spot here Previous slideNext slide1 of 3SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY012AlaiaThe fanciest restaurant at Turtle Bay is likely Alaia We tried both breakfast and dinner here — and this is where you'd use your Amex FHR breakfast credit if you booked via that program Some standout items we had were the focaccia bread with whipped butter that came with dinner the kids meal that was served in another three-course style with a crudite starter a main of our choosing (we went with chicken) and ice cream for dessert but it wouldn't go far if you were really hungry Previous slideNext slide1 of 6SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY012345Previous slideNext slide1 of 3SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY012While our visit wasn't long enough to try it all Lei Lei's Bar & Grill and The Beach Club there is a Paniolo Luau near the stables that starts at $195 for adults and $120 for kids 4-12 (3 and under are free) Service was always kind and helpful at Turtle Bay if you asked about an activity and the staff member said it was full they wouldn't proactively suggest other ones or check for the next day It was more of a transactional question-and-answer-style interaction It's worth mentioning that there is a great valet system where you can scan a QR code on your ticket when you're ready for your car which immediately texts for your car to be brought around even though it didn't turn out to be a pool-and-beach type of trip so here are some reasons it might not be for you Turtle Bay has a very detailed website of offerings when it comes to accessibility. Highlights include 16 different accessible rooms, including one ocean bungalow, with door ramps to the balcony, grab bars in the bathroom, and lower towel bars and robe hooks. The resort also has transfer systems for the pools and hot tubs, accessible entrances to all of the restaurants and bars, and more. I'm a big fan of Hawaii's different north shores, and this one was no exception. It can be easy for first-timers to assume that Waikiki is the place to be on Oahu, but I'd say once you have experienced it, it's time to explore more of the island, and heading north is a great way to do that. Previous slideNext slide1 of 5SUMMER HULL/THE POINTS GUY01234While Oahu's North Shore is certainly becoming more commercialized and tourist-driven, it still feels much more authentic to Hawaii than some other parts that are lined with resort after resort. Turtle Bay is a way to have a taste of the best of both worlds — the amenities and comforts of a large resort just a short drive away from small towns and true surf culture.
