Suffolk County police released a trio of 911 calls Friday from
the night Shannan Gilbert went missing in the Gilgo Beach area
more than a decade ago — providing some insight into her final
moments.

A troubled and confused Gilbert repeatedly claims to dispatchers
early on May 1, 2010, “something is going to happen to me” and
pleads with two men, “Please get me out of here … I just want to
go home.”

Gilbert, a Craigslist sex worker from Jersey City, NJ, was out
on Long Island that night meeting a client, Joseph Brewer, at
his home in the Oak Beach Association with her driver, Michael
Pak, police said.

At one point, Gilbert started acting “irrationally” and Brewer
asked Pak to have her leave, which appears to be when she made
the 911 calls.

“Please stop it. What are you going to do to me?” she says as a
dispatcher repeatedly asks where she is calling from.

“I’m on Long Island,” Gilbert says numerous times, but was
confused as to why she was in the man’s house.

“There’s somebody after me, I don’t know where I am. I am inside
a house. I don’t know where I am. Can you trace where I am?”
Gilbert says on the call.

“These people are trying to kill me,” she says at one point, to
which a man responds playfully, “Shut up,” and laughs.

She eventually ran from the house and knocked on several doors
in the neighborhood, interacting with two neighbors, before
disappearing, cops said.

Both neighbors also called police and could be heard in 911
calls reporting that they saw the troubled woman. One man said
she looked like a 14-year-old child, while a woman said she was
afraid to let her into her home.

As police scoured the nearby area for Gilbert, they discovered
the dumping grounds of a serial killer or killers with the
remains of nine others, seven women, a man and a toddler,

While the details of how Gilbert disappeared were unclear,
detectives believe her death was an “unfortunate accident” and
not connected to the Gilgo Beach murders. Investigators believe
there may be between 10 and 16 victims of the area’s possible
serial-killer homicides, half of whom apparently worked as
prostitutes, cops said.

“Based on the evidence, the facts, and the totality of the
circumstances, the prevailing opinion in Shannan’s death, while
tragic, was not a murder and was most likely noncriminal,”
Suffolk County Police Commissioner Rodney Harrison said at a
news conference Friday, according to ABC7.

Police also said they interviewed Brewer and Pak and determined
they were not responsible for Gilbert’s death.

Harrison, the former chief of department at the NYPD, has
renewed focus on hunting down the Long Island serial killer
since taking over the Suffolk department, creating a new task
force and releasing additional evidence in hopes it will develop
new leads.

The Gilbert family sued for the release of the calls in 2020,
with a judge later only ordering cops to turn over the
recordings to the family.

Harrison promised to release the tapes after becoming the
county’s top cop in January.

TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) - Topeka police have identified the woman
whose death this weekend on the city’s southwest side is being
investigated as “suspicious” in nature.

The woman, Hester Workman, 46, was found dead Saturday night at
a home in the 2800 block of S.W. James.

Police said earlier that officers were called around 7:13 p.m.
Saturday to a residence in the 2800 block of S.W. James.

Officers were responding to a 911 call requesting medical
personnel at that location, police officials said.

Upon their arrival, officers found an adult female -- later
identified as Workman -- who was deceased.

Workman’s death is being investigated as “suspicious” in nature,
police said.

Her death hadn’t been ruled a homicide as of mid-morning Monday.

Police officials on Monday morning said the investigation into
Workman’s death is ongoing.

TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) - The 16-year-old accused of the first-
degree premeditated murder of his friend’s mother appeared in
court Thursday afternoon. Amadeus Courage Ballou-Meyer appeared
via Zoom for a detention hearing before Judge Darian Dernovish
in Shawnee County District Court. 13 News was the only
television station that requested permission from the judge to
attend the Zoom hearing.

Ballou-Meyer is accused of killing 46-year-old Hester Workman in
Southwest Topeka on Saturday. She was found lying in her home’s
attached garage by her son and a friend on Saturday, April 24.
Her son called 911. Authorities will not say if the friend who
was with her son at the time was Ballou-Meyer.

Defense attorney Mike Francis recommended a mental health
evaluation and asked the judge to release his client to the
custody of his grandmother. She too was on the Zoom call. Ballou-
Meyer is currently in the custody of the Juvenile Detention
Center.

Prosecutor Jessica Heinen, an assistant district attorney, made
a recommendation to the judge that the defendant be held; the
judge considered Ballou-Meyer” to be “an extreme danger” to the
public. Ballou-Meyer will remain in custody with a docket
hearing on June 28th at 11 AM.

Ballou-Meyer’s grandmother asked if she could visit her grandson
in custody. Judge Dernovish told her she would need to go
through DCF to set up any visitations. The judge admonished
Ballou-Meyer and told him he had guards who would be monitoring
him every day. Dernovish advised him that any misconduct would
not be tolerated.

Prosecutors also added a charge of sexual exploitation of a
child related to a separate case from 2020.

Hester Workman was found with severe trauma to her head and
pronounced dead at the scene. Over the following two days,
officers canvassed the neighborhood and collected surveillance
videos from neighboring homes. That led to the identification
and arrest of Amadeus Courage Ballou-Meyer, a 16-year-old friend
of Workman’s son.

Ballou-Meyer is charged with: Murder in the First Degree,
Premeditated (Off-Grid Felony); Murder in the First Degree,
Committed during an Inherently Dangerous Felony (Off-Grid
Felony); Aggravated Burglary (Level 4 Felony); Aggravated
Battery (Level 7 Felony); Interference with Law Enforcement
(Level 8 Felony); and Theft (Class ‘A’ Misdemeanor). The DA’s
office has already started proceedings requesting that the Court
authorize Kagay’s office to prosecute Ballou-Meyer as an adult.

Amadeus Ballou-Meyer, a 17-year-old Topekan accused of beating
his friend's mother to death with a baseball bat last year, has
been scheduled to enter a plea in that case.

A plea hearing for Ballou-Meyer was scheduled June 7 and is to
take place at 4 p.m. July 22 in Shawnee County District Court,
according to court records.

Ballou-Meyer is being tried as an adult on charges linked to the
killing of Hester Workman, 46, who suffered severe head trauma.
He had been friends with her son, Dillon Jay.

Workman's body was found in April 2021 in the attached garage of
her home at 2843 S.W. James, about one-half mile west of S.W.
Gage Boulevard.

Ballou-Meyer first became a potential suspect when police saw a
home security video taken three or four blocks from the homicide
scene shortly after it occurred, Topeka police Detective Luke
Jones said last March at Ballou-Meyer's preliminary hearing.

That video showed Ballou-Meyer carrying a ball bat. A disc
golfer subsequently found that bat in Shunganunga Creek and
turned it over to investigators, Jones said.

Video of Jones questioning Ballou-Meyer about Workman's death
was shown at his preliminary hearing. Ballou-Meyer gave
conflicting accounts but admitted being present when she
suffered a head injury.

Shawnee County District Judge Bill Ossmann at that hearing bound
Ballou-Meyer over on charges he faces of intentional,
premeditated first-degree murder or, in the alternative, first-
degree felony committed during an inherently dangerous felony.

Ossmann also bound Ballou-Meyer over for trial on one count each
of aggravated burglary, aggravated battery, theft and
interference with a law enforcement officer.

Workman was employed at the time of her death as a legal support
staff supervisor for the Kansas Board of Health Arts.

TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) - Prosecutors appeared in a virtual docket
hearing Monday seeking to try Amadeus Ballou-Meyer as an adult
in the homicide case of Hester Workman and a separate sex crime
case involving an underage relative.

13 NEWS obtained a copy of the state’s motion supporting their
request.

According to the motion, on the night of April 24 officers found
two people sitting in the driveway of Workman’s home on James
Street consoling each other.

One person identified as “D.J.” told officers he thought he
accidentally ran over Workman with his car when he pulled into
the driveway after coming home from work.

The motion said that officers took statements from the two
people and they told law enforcement “as they pulled into the
garage they felt a bump and got out to see what caused the bump
and found Hester on the garage floor,”.

Investigators then determined Workman’s death was a homicide
noting blood near her body came from being hit with an object
multiple times not a car.

A neighbor told officers they saw a young man walking quickly
down James Street carrying a baseball bat.

Security footage from other neighbors showed the man running
down the street.

D.J. identified the person in the video as Ballou-Meyer, his
best friend.

D.J. described the relationship between Ballou-Meyer and Workman
as “good”.

On April 26, officers found Ballou-Meyer at his grandmother’s
house.

The motion details that he initially tried to jump off a second-
floor balcony before ultimately cooperating with police.

During questioning, the motion said he gave officers several
versions of what happened on the night of Workman’s death.

First, he said he stopped by her house and she gave him a bottle
of water and he left.

Then he said he decided to Workman she may have hit her head so
he panicked and left.

After more questioning, he told investigators he was upset with
D.J. because he would not let Ballou-Meyer smoke in his car
earlier in the day.

He then said while out walking he saw Workman outside and snuck
into the house planning to scare her because he thought it would
be funny.

He told investigators Workman fell backward and hit her head on
the metal rails of the garage door.

He said he could not see her breathing, saw the baseball bat in
the garage and decided to put Workman “out of her suffering” and
hit her twice in the head.

He told law enforcement he ran from the house and threw the bat
into Shunga creek.

The motion also details a separate sex crime case involving an
underage relative.

It states in July 2019, the child’s mother found secret videos
on Ballou-Meyer’s phone of her daughter getting dressed.

The state made several arguments Ballou-Meyer should be tried as
an adult for both crimes citing the seriousness and
sophistication for them.

A hearing for the motion is scheduled for September 16.

TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) - Amadeus Ballou-Meyer, the teen accused of
killing Hester Workman, appeared over Zoom in a docket hearing
Monday before Judge Darian Dernovish in Shawnee Co. District
Court.

13 NEWS was the only media on the Zoom hearing.

Shawnee Co. District Attorney Mike Kanagy’s office has filed a
motion to prosecute Ballou-Meyer as an adult in the death of
Workman and a separate case involving a charge of sexual
exploitation of a child related to a case from 2020.

Jessica Heinen, an Assistant District Attorney for Shawnee Co.,
is representing the state of Kansas.

She said the hearing could take about four hours or the length
of one day, considering there are two cases.

Defense attorney Mike Francis said in the months following
Ballou-Meyer’s initial court appearance he requested Ballou-
Meyer’s psychological and health records “some time ago” but
still has not received them.

Francis added that Ballou-Meyer has been in and out of treatment
for more than 10 years, which could lengthen the time of the
motion hearing.

A representative from KVC Kansas, an organization that provides
foster care case management, also appeared on the call. She said
KVC had requested any and all psychological records for Ballou-
Meyer and would check on their status later Monday.

An in-person motion hearing has been set for September 16 at
9:30 am.

Evidence will be heard to see if there is enough evidence to
prosecute Ballou-Meyer as an adult in both cases.

September 17 has also been reserved in case the hearing needs to
go on for more time.

The KVC representative also told Judge Dernovish that Ballou-
Meyer did not appear with his case manager when she attempted to
meet with him this month.

She encouraged that Ballou-Meyer meet with his caseworker.

When asked, Ballou-Meyer said he would meet.

Judge Dernovish told Ballou-Meyer to stay out of trouble and
listen to the guards.

Ballou-Meyer agreed.

He is being held in the Juvenile Detention Center.

TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) - Topeka teen Amadeus Ballou-Meyer, who is
accused of killing Hester Workman, his friend’s mother, has been
bound over for trial.

Shawnee County District Attorney Mike Kagay says on Friday,
March 18, Amadeus Courage Ballou-Meyer was bound over for trial
in district court.

On April 24, 2021, Topeka police were called to 2843 SW James
St. when a resident reported his mother had died.

Upon arrival, officers said they found Hester Workman’s body
laying in the attached garage. The caller had been found to be
Workman’s 16-year-old son, who found her when he and his friend
arrived at the home.

Court records indicate Workman suffered from severe trauma to
her head. She was pronounced dead at the scene.

Over the next two days, Kagay said officials conducted a
neighborhood canvas to collect surveillance video from the area.
The effort led to the identification and arrest of Ballou-Meyer,
a 16-year-old friend of Workman’s son.

Ballou-Meyer has now been bound over for trial on several
charges related to Workman’s murder, including:

Murder in the First Degree, Premeditated
Murder in the First Degree, Committed during an Inherently
Dangerous Felony
Aggravated Burglary
Aggravated Battery
Interference with Law Enforcement
Theft
Kagay said his office has received authority from the court to
prosecute Ballou-Meyer as an adult.

Ballou-Meyer remains in custody as his case is set for a status
conference on May 26.

TOPEKA, Kan. (WIBW) - A teen accused of killing his friend’s
mother in April will be prosecuted as an adult.

Judge Darian Dernovish said in court he does not like waiving
juveniles to adult status, but said the “law is the law” and
told Amadeus Ballou-Meyer he needs to pay the price.

Judge Dernovish considered eight factors when deciding if Ballou-
Meyer needed to be prosecuted as an adult for the death of
Hester Workman.

The factors include the seriousness of the offense, the
sophistication of the crimes and the previous behavior of the
defendant. All eight factors ruled in favor of the prosecution.

The prosecution called two witnesses in Wednesday’s waiver
hearing.

Ballou-Meyer kept his head down during the majority of the
hearing.

Workman was found dead in the garage of her home on James St. in
Topeka on April 24. Security footage from neighbors showed a
person running down the street with a baseball bat.

That person was later identified as Ballou-Meyer, a friend of
Workman’s son.

Shawnee Co. District Attorney Mike Kagay’s Office will now have
to file the adult case.

Kagay said Ballou-Meyer’s charges will be the same in the adult
case, which includes a premeditated first-degree murder charge.
He says juvenile court limits the penalties that can be pursued,
which is why his office took this course of action.

“When we come across something that merits a first-degree murder
charge like we have in this case, we’re always going to seek to
prosecute the individual as an adult so that’s what we’ve done
here,” he said.

If found guilty, Ballou-Meyer could face life in prison.

Members of Workman’s family were present in Thursday’s waiver
hearing. They did not wish to speak on camera, but told 13 NEWS
they are relieved with the ruling and grateful for the work fo
the detectives in this case.

Ballou-Meyer will also be prosecuted as an adult in a previous
separate sex crimes case.

No trial date has been set yet.

The U.S. Department of Education canceled about $5.8 billion in
outstanding student loans for more than 560,000 borrowers in the
largest single loan forgiveness action taken by the government
to date, the department announced Wednesday.

The cancellation applies to all those who attended schools
operated by the now-defunct Corinthian Colleges, one of the
largest for-profit education companies that filed for Chapter 11
bankruptcy in 2015.

Corinthian Colleges has faced several lawsuits since its
founding in 1995 — but perhaps the most notable is from 2013,
when Vice President Kamala Harris sued Corinthian while she was
attorney general of California for “deceptive and false
advertising and recruiting” among other allegations, according
to the department.

“As of today, every student deceived, defrauded, and driven into
debt by Corinthian Colleges can rest assured that the Biden-
Harris administration has their back and will discharge their
federal student loans,” U.S. Secretary of Education Miguel
Cardona said in a statement.

Qualifying borrowers won’t need to fill out the application to
receive the relief, either: it will be automatic, and they are
expected to be notified within weeks, the department said.

Wednesday’s news comes as the Biden administration considers
broader student loan forgiveness for millions of borrowers — so
far, the administration has approved $25 billion in loan
forgiveness for about 1.3 million borrowers.

While some politicians and economists hailed the move as a step
in the right direction toward addressing the $1.7 trillion
student debt crisis, millions of borrowers have yet to see
relief and are wondering when, and if, their loans will be
forgiven.

About two thousand serial killers are on the loose, hunting for
fresh victims all across the country.

That’s the word from California cold-case ace Paul Holes, who
nailed notorious Golden State Killer Joseph James DeAngelo in
2016 after a 40-year manhunt.

He believes many more like him are still out there.

“I’ve seen statistics that some two thousand serial killers are
operating in the United States today,” writes the acclaimed
criminalist in “Unmasked: My Life Solving America’s Cold Cases,”
out now, in which he chronicles his career-long pursuit of
DeAngelo.

“It’s a rough estimate, for sure, but it’s absolutely a
realistic figure,” Holes told The Post.

He said murderers go after the marginalized — particularly
prostitutes, drug addicts and the homeless — relatively easy
marks as they tend to lose touch with family and friends and
might have a history of disappearing for extended periods of
time.

“Often these predators are preying on people whose lives have
spiraled down, so when they go missing, no one is really paying
attention,” he said. “Killers are hiding behind the opioid
crisis.”

Widespread use of heroin, oxycodone and fentanyl provides serial
slayers with a “smokescreen,” Holes said, allowing them to choke
or suffocate victims with less violence than would be needed to
kill the fully conscious — and to fool investigators, who
wrongly assume that drugs are to blame.

“If the manner of killing is a softer manual strangulation,
where the victim is intoxicated and barely conscious, it doesn’t
take much to kill them,” he told The Post.

“Pathologists can write off these cases too fast: ‘This is an
OD.’ They’re not paying attention to a small bruise around the
neck, especially if the investigator is saying, ‘Let’s kiss this
off and get back to the bona fide homicides.’ “

Holes pointed to the example of Samuel Little, who confessed to
murdering 93 women between 1970 and 2012, making him the most
prolific serial killer in US history. Some he killed were sex
workers and drug users.

“He would strangle his victims and command them to swallow,” he
said. “You could see he’s doing this enough times to where they
are unconscious and the amount of physical evidence is very
subtle. It makes it difficult for the experts to determine what
exactly happened.”

A good number of serial killers are believed to be truckers like
the “Happy Face Killer” Keith Jesperson — long-haul drivers who
target prostitutes and take advantage of being on the road for
weeks at a time to hide their crimes.

“They can work a circuit,” Holes said. “Picking up sex workers
is something that has been seen over and over again. ‘Hey, you
need a ride?’ And the victim gets in their vehicle and they’re
done.”

The creation of the FBI’s Highway Serial Killings Initiative in
2009 underscores the pervasiveness of truck-driving predators,
he said. “It’s a huge aspect.”

Years ago killers like DeAngelo — a terrifying menace who raped
13 and killed 50 and sometimes taunted his victims afterward —
didn’t have to worry as much about disguising their whereabouts.

“Back in the day you’d find them working in any type of
community, though not necessarily living there. In the
distribution of crimes you might see a void area — so maybe
that’s where he lives,” said Holes.

“In the 1970s you had serial killers entering houses or picking
up hitchhikers. It was very obvious that something had occurred.
But as society adjusted to public security threats —
surveillance systems, for example — the predator tries to
minimize the risks to himself. They’re using technology to lure
and isolate victims through things like online sex work. They’re
no longer standing around in playgrounds.”

DeAngelo pounced on his victims while they slept in their homes,
shining a flashlight in their faces so they couldn’t see him. He
wore gloves, tied up and blindfolded his targets — typically
couples — and carefully mapped out escape routes.

He went four decades before being identified by Holes as a
suspect in a rape and killing spree that began in 1974. The
crime fighter discovered him using advanced DNA mapping and a
genealogy researcher.

Two recent cases have captured his attention, Holes said: The
Delphi slayings in Indiana — “that’s a serial predator, somebody
who needs to be caught” — and the Gilgo Beach murders on Long
Island, an ongoing mystery involving sex workers and others who
were strangled and dumped near the ocean.

“I think most of those cases are related,” said Holes, referring
to Gilgo.

He said serial killers as a group often blend in, leading
ordinary lives in seemingly safe communities.

“Most are not loners or outcasts,” he writes.

“They can and do function as your friendly next-door neighbor.
They know that what they are doing is twisted, and they can stop
for periods of time, but their urge to kill is stronger than the
fear of getting caught.”

Shares of rocket-builder Astra fell sharply in trading on Monday
after a weekend launch carrying NASA satellites failed to reach
orbit.

Astra’s rocket LV0010 took off on Sunday from launch complex 46
at Cape Canaveral in Florida, carrying two satellites on NASA’s
TROPICS-1 mission. The first part of the mission went as
planned, but the engine on the upper portion of the rocket shut
down early and the company was unable to deploy the satellites.

“We are reviewing flight data to determine the root cause of
this anomaly and will provide additional information when it is
available,” Astra wrote in a securities filing.

Astra stock fell 23.8% to close at $1.54 a share. The TROPICS-1
mission represents the company’s second mission failure in three
launches this year.

In a tweet, Astra CEO Chris Kemp noted that NASA needs to have
four of the planned six TROPICS satellites in orbit to be
successful, so “the next two launches need to work.” TROPICS-1
was the first of three missions that NASA awarded to Astra.

“Our team understands what is at stake,” Kemp said.

The company’s vehicle stands 43 feet tall and is considered a
small rocket in the launch market. Astra’s goal is to launch as
many of its small rockets as it can — aiming to hit a rate of
one rocket per day by 2025 — and further drop its $2.5 million
price tag.

Astra went public last year after completing a SPAC merger,
raising funds to build out production of its small rockets,
expand its facilities in Alameda, California, and grow its
spacecraft and spaceport business lines.

the patient. The patient remains isolated, and health officials
are working to identify anyone the patient may have had close
contact with while infectious.

Initial testing was completed at Kentucky’s Department for
Public Health.

“Identifying the first case of monkeypox in Kentucky is
concerning but not surprising,” said Dr. Steven Stack, KY Public
Health Commissioner. “Fortunately, the risk to the general
public remains low. We continue to work closely with CDC and our
local health department and healthcare partners to contain the
spread of this virus.”

As of June 23, the CDC reports that 173 monkeypox cases have
been identified in 24 U.S. states.

KANSAS CITY, Mo. —
The Kansas City Health Department and Missouri Department of
Health and Senior Services announced the state's first probable
monkeypox case in a Kansas City, Missouri, resident who recently
traveled out of state.

“This week, one of our excellent nurses suspected one of our
patients may have monkeypox virus,” Dr. Marvia Jones, director
of the Kansas City Health Department, said in a release.

She added, “We are considering this a probable case of monkeypox
virus until we receive final confirmation from the CDC labs. We
appreciate the work our disease investigation and nursing staff
have done to educate themselves on this rare virus and be on
alert for it.”

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention will test to
confirm the case. The Health Department is determining whether
the patient had contact with others while infected. Officials
will notify anyone deemed at risk for exposure.

The patient did not need to be hospitalized.

Health officials say monkeypox starts with flu-like symptoms and
swollen lymph nodes, and progresses to a rash on the face and
body. Most infections last two to four weeks.

The CDC says there are currently 113 confirmed cases in the U.S.
and that the risk to the general population remains low. It is
spread through close physical contact.

Here is the full release:

(KANSAS CITY, MO) – The Kansas City Health Department (KCHD) and
Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services (DHSS)
announced today a single probable monkeypox case in a Kansas
City, Missouri, resident with recent out-of-state travel history.

“This week, one of our excellent nurses suspected one of our
patients may have monkeypox virus,” said Dr. Marvia Jones,
Director of the Kansas City Health Department. “We are
considering this a probable case of monkeypox virus until we
receive final confirmation from the CDC labs. We appreciate the
work our disease investigation and nursing staff have done to
educate themselves on this rare virus and be on alert for it.”

Initial testing was completed June 18, 2022, at the Missouri
State Public Health Laboratory, and confirmatory testing for
monkeypox is pending at the Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC). Based on initial epidemiologic characteristics
and the positive orthopoxvirus result at the state laboratory,
health officials consider this a probable monkeypox infection.

KCHD disease investigators are working to determine if the
patient may have been in contact with any individuals while
infectious. Health officials will make notification with any
individuals if they are deemed at risk for exposure. This
contact tracing approach is appropriate given the nature and
transmission of the virus. The person did not require
hospitalization. To protect patient confidentiality, no further
details relating to the patient will be disclosed. State health
officials including epidemiologists, disease control staff, and
the laboratory are coordinating closely between KCHD and CDC.

There is no indication there is a great risk of extensive local
spread of the virus, as monkeypox does not spread as easily as
the COVID-19 virus. Person-to-person transmission is possible
through close physical contact with body fluids, monkeypox
sores, items that have been contaminated with fluids or sores
(clothing, bedding, etc.), or through respiratory droplets
following prolonged face-to-face contact.

Monkeypox is a rare, but potentially serious viral illness,
which belongs to the Orthopoxvirus family, and typically begins
with flu-like symptoms and swelling of the lymph nodes, and
progresses to a rash on the face and body. Most infections last
2 to 4 weeks. Monkeypox is typically endemic to parts of central
and west Africa, and people can be exposed through bites or
scratches from rodents and small mammals, preparing wild game,
or having contact with an infected animal or possibly animal
products.

Beginning in 2022, multiple cases of monkeypox have been
reported in several countries that do not normally report
monkeypox, including the United States. On May 18, 2022, a U.S.
resident tested positive for monkeypox after returning to the
U.S. from Canada. As of June 18, 2022, the CDC reports 113
confirmed cases of orthopox/monkeypox across multiple states.
Anyone, regardless of sexual orientation, can spread monkeypox,
but early data from this outbreak suggest that gay, bisexual,
and other men who have sex with men make up a high number of
initial cases.

According to federal health officials, clinicians should
consider a diagnosis of monkeypox in people who present with a
consistent rash, especially if they 1) had contact with someone
who had a rash that looks like monkeypox or someone who was
diagnosed with confirmed or probable monkeypox, 2) had skin-to-
skin-contact with someone in a social network experiencing
monkeypox activity; this includes men who have sex with men who
meet partners through an online website, digital application
(app), or social event (e.g., a bar or party), 3) traveled
outside the US to a country with confirmed cases of monkeypox or
where monkeypox activity has been ongoing, or 4) had contact
with a dead or live wild animal or exotic pet that exists only
in Africa or used a product derived from such animals (e.g.,
game meat, creams, lotions, powders, etc.).

People who have a new or unexplained rash, sores, or symptoms,
or have a confirmed exposure should see a healthcare provider
and avoid sex or being intimate with anyone until they have been
seen. If a person or their partner has monkeypox, they should
follow the treatment and prevention recommendations outlined by
their healthcare provider and avoid sex or being intimate with
anyone until all sores have healed or have a fresh layer of skin
formed.

Suspected cases may present with early flu-like symptoms and
progress to lesions that may begin on one site on the body and
spread to other parts. Illness could be clinically confused with
a sexually transmitted infection like syphilis or herpes, or
with varicella zoster virus.

British health officials will start offering vaccines to some
men who are gay or bisexual or have sex with men, who are at the
highest risk of catching monkeypox, in an effort to curb the
biggest outbreak of the disease beyond Africa.

Britain’s Health Security Agency said in a statement on Tuesday
that doctors could consider vaccination for some men who are gay
or bisexual and men who have sex with men at the highest risk of
exposure, whom they defined as people with “multiple partners,
(who participate) in group sex or (attend) ‘sex on premises’
venues.”

“By expanding the vaccine offer to those at higher risk, we hope
to break chains of transmission and help contain the outbreak,”
said the Health Security Agency’s head of immunization, Dr. Mary
Ramsay.

Last month, a leading adviser to the World Health Organization
said that the monkeypox outbreak beyond Africa was likely spread
by sexual activity by men at raves in Spain and Belgium.

Vaccines have previously been available only for health workers
taking care of monkeypox patients or for cleaners disinfecting
areas contaminated by the virus. The vaccine was originally
developed for smallpox, a related disease, but is thought to be
about 85 percent effective against monkeypox.

To date, more than 99 percent of monkeypox cases in Britain are
among men, and the majority of those are in men who are gay,
bisexual or who have sex with men. Scientists warn that anyone
who is in close, physical contact with someone infected with
monkeypox or their clothing or bedsheets is at risk of the
disease, regardless of their sexual orientation.

There are currently 793 monkeypox cases in the U.K., out of more
than 2,100 cases in 42 countries globally. No deaths beyond
Africa have been reported.

Until last month, monkeypox had only caused sizable outbreaks in
central and west Africa; the continent has so far reported more
than 1,500 cases and 72 suspected deaths in a separate epidemic.
Vaccines have never been used in Africa to control monkeypox.

Last week, World Health Organization Director-General Tedros
Adhanom Ghebreyesus described the continued spread of monkeypox
in countries that haven’t previously seen the disease as
“unusual and concerning.”

Tedros is convening an expert meeting Thursday to decide if the
expanding monkeypox outbreak warrants being declared a global
emergency. That would give it the same designation as the Covid-
19 pandemic and the ongoing effort to eradicate polio.

On June 13, a man in New York began to feel ill.

"He starts to experience swollen lymph nodes and rectal
discomfort," says epidemiologist Keletso Makofane, who's at
Harvard University.

The man suspects he might have monkeypox. He's a scientist, and
knowledgeable about the signs and symptoms, Makofane says. So
the man goes to his doctor and asks for a monkeypox test. The
doctor decides, instead, to test the man for common sexually
transmitted diseases. All those come back negative.

"A few days later, the pain worsens," Makofane says. So he goes
to the urgent care and again asks for a monkeypox test. This
time, the provider prescribes him antibiotics for a bacterial
infection.

"The pain becomes so bad, and starts to interfere with his
sleep," Makofane says. "So this past Sunday, he goes to the
emergency room of a big academic hospital in New York."

At this point the man has a growth inside his rectum, which is a
symptom of monkeypox. At the hospital, he sees both an ER doctor
and an infectious disease specialist. Again, the man asks for a
monkeypox test. But the specialist rebuffs the request and says
"a monkeypox test isn't indicated," Makofane says. Instead, the
doctor speculates that the man might have colon cancer.

A few days later, he develops skin lesions — another key sign of
monkeypox.

A misleading case count
On the surface, the monkeypox outbreak in the U.S. doesn't look
that bad, especially compared with other countries. Since the
international epidemic began in May, the U.S. has recorded 201
cases of monkeypox. In contrast, the U.K. has nearly 800 cases.
Spain and Germany both have more than 500.

But in the U.S., the official case count is misleading, Makofane
and other scientists tell NPR. The outbreak is bigger — perhaps
much bigger — than the case count suggests.

For many of the confirmed cases, health officials don't know how
the person caught the virus. Those infected haven't traveled or
come into contact with another infected person. That means the
virus is spreading in some communities and cities, cryptically.

"The fact that we can't reconstruct the transmission chain means
that we are likely missing a lot of links in that chain,"
Jennifer Nuzzo, an epidemiologist at Brown University, says.
"And that means that those infected people haven't had the
opportunity to receive medicines to help them recover faster and
not develop severe symptoms.

"But it also means that they're possibly spreading the virus
without knowledge of the fact that they're infected," she adds.

In other words: "We have no concept of the scale of the
monkeypox outbreak in the U.S.," says biologist Joseph Osmundson
at New York University. "

Why are so few cases getting detected? Testing. In many ways,
the U.S. has dropped the ball on monkeypox testing.

Across the nation, public health agencies are running too few
tests — way too few, Osmundson says. "State officials are
denying people testing because they're using a narrow definition
of monkeypox to decide who receives a test. They're testing in
only a very restrictive number of cases."

Take for instance the man Makofane knows. Eventually, after
seeing more than four doctors, the man finally finds an activist
who's trying to expand testing. The activist connects the man
with a doctor who orders a test through a private company
(that's working to produce a commercial test.) The result: He's
positive. He has monkeypox.

Makofane says the testing situation right now is so "abysmal" in
the U.S. that he launched his own study, called RESPND-MI, to
figure out the prevalence of monkeypox in New York City and to
help friends share information about monkepox.

The CDC would not divulge to NPR how many tests have been
performed across the country, nor will the agency say where
community transmission is likely occurring in the U.S. (NPR
emailed the agency multiple times about these questions but the
press person declined to comment or provide an interview.)

On Thursday, the CDC told the New York Times, it has performed
1,058 monkeypox tests. However, it's not clear how many of these
tests are duplications for the same person. And several sources
involved with monkeypox testing doubt the agency has tested that
many cases. One source told NPR that, as of last Friday, the CDC
had tested about 300 cases. At that time, about 100 of those
tests were positive, giving a positivity rate of more than 30%.

When the outbreak first began last month, the CDC quickly helped
to set up testing in about 70 state and local labs across the
country. Unlike with COVID, the agency already had a test
developed and ready to send to labs.

"We should celebrate that prior investment," Nuzzo says. "That's
what preparedness means.

An ineffective testing system
But as the need for testing grew — and the disease became more
common than officials initially predicted — the testing system
set up by the CDC stopped functioning well, because it actually
deters doctors from ordering a monkeypox test.

Providers have to go out of their way to order a test. They have
to receive permission and instructions from local or state labs,
Nuzzo says. The process is cumbersome and often time-consuming.
Sometimes a doctor has to sit on the phone for hours.

"That's really the bottleneck that we're worried about," she
says. "We need to cast a wider net with testing to find
infections that we're missing. And that's really hard to do if
we make it cumbersome and difficult for health care providers to
request a test in the course of their busy days."

Nuzzo says the CDC and local health departments need to remove
the barriers to testing. "I also want to make testing easier and
more widespread so that all clinicians feel that they can test a
patient. Any patient with a suspicious rash."

And doctors and nurses need to have a better understanding of
what monkeypox actually looks like in patients. It's different
from what's in medical textbooks. It can present like many other
diseases, including herpes, syphilis and colon cancer.

"Infections have been largely found in men who have sex with
men, who may typically seek care at a sexual health clinic,"
Nuzzo explains. "Those providers may be particularly well-
educated now about monkeypox and may be more willing to send a
specimen out for testing. But we may not be seeing that level of
education and willingness to test with other health care
providers, who see different kinds of patients. And that means
we may be missing infections in different patient groups."

On Thursday afternoon, the CDC announced they were working to
ramp up testing at the main labs that health providers normally
use. And the agency is aiming to make testing easier sometime in
July.

But Nuzzo says changes to testing need to happen right away. It
needs to be easier, right now, for doctors to submit samples to
the labs already doing this testing.

"Time is not on our side here," she says. "Every day we delay,
we are missing links in the transmission chain and are allowing
this outbreak to grow possibly beyond control."

And monkeypox, just like COVID, may become a long-term — perhaps
even permanent — problem here in the U.S.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. (WANE) — State health officials announced
Saturday the first probable case of monkeypox in Indiana in 2022
has been identified. No further information about the patient
will be released due to privacy concerns.

Initial testing was completed at the Indiana Department of
Health Laboratories Saturday. Confirmatory testing is pending at
the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Based on the
initial positive test and preliminary case investigation, state
health officials consider this a probable monkeypox infection.

The patient remains isolated, and health officials are working
to identify anyone the patient may have had close contact with
while infectious.

“The risk of monkeypox among the general public continues to be
extremely low,” said State Health Commissioner Kris Box, M.D.,
FACOG. “Monkeypox is rare and does not easily spread through
brief casual contact. Please continue to take the same steps you
do to protect against any infection, including washing your
hands frequently and thoroughly, and check with a healthcare
provider if you have any new signs or symptoms.”

Person-to-person transmission is possible either through skin-to-
skin contact with body fluids, monkeypox sores or contaminated
items, such as bedding or clothing, or through exposure to
respiratory droplets during prolonged face-to-face contact.

Monkeypox typically begins with fever, headache, chills, muscle
aches and exhaustion about 5 to 21 days after exposure. Within 1
to 3 days (sometimes longer) after the appearance of fever, the
patient develops a rash, often beginning on the face and then
spreading to other parts of the body. Some people may only
develop the rash. The illness typically lasts for 2 to 4 weeks.
People are considered infectious until all scabs from the rash
have fallen off.

The CDC reports that 113 monkeypox cases have been confirmed in
21 U.S. states and territories in 2022. Visit the CDC’s website
for more information on the monkeypox outbreak.

Monkeypox fir spread to humans from one infected animal like a

The Marine Corps marked the start of Pride month with an image
of a combat helmet adorned with rainbow-colored bullets on
Wednesday — sparking outrage over the mixing of warfare and
wokeness.

“Throughout June, the USMC takes #Pride in recognizing and
honoring the contributions of our LGBTQ service members,” the
Marines tweeted on their official account.

“We remain committed to fostering an environment free from
discrimination, and defend the values of treating all equally,
with dignity and respect.”

The message was accompanied by an image reminiscent of the
poster for the 1987 Vietnam War movie “Full Metal Jacket,” which
featured a helmet with rounds of high-powered rifle ammo tucked
into its band.

But instead of having “BORN TO KILL” scrawled across the
helmet’s camouflage cover, the updated version has “PROUD TO

yellow, green, blue and purple.

sarcastically asking, “Ummmm….. Is this satire?”

Jason Buttrill, whose profile says he’s a former Marine and
Defense Department analyst, wrote, “F–k out of here with this.
We don’t take political sides, and we don’t engage in social
commentary. We kill the enemy… period.”

User @Hannibalsbarka snarked, “Getting killed by a rainbow
bullet is so progressive.”

Another user, @TheRealEJones, lamented, “What the actual F. My

User @VrishnikG also referenced “Full Metal Jacket” by posting a
meme of the movie’s drill instructor, played by the late R. Lee
Ermey, telling his recruits, “Here, you are all equally
worthless.”

“They should’ve stuck with this message,” the tweet added.

Christina Pushaw, a spokeswoman for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis,
said, “Seriously? How does fixating on differences foster
cohesion and unity?”

A similar sentiment was voiced by user @JackedTNT, who urged,
“Focus on building warriors and less about social bulls–t.”

Legendary Marine Lt. General Lewis “Chesty” Puller was invoked
by user @RufusDryer, who said the Corps’ most-decorated member

A former CNN anchor has been arrested after an alleged hit-and-
run crash.

Ex-CNN anchor Felicia Taylor has been booked over an alleged car
crash in Palm Beach, Florida, on July 28.

Taylor reportedly hit the back of a black Ford that was stopped
for traffic with her white Mercedes. Palm Beach police said a 24-
year-old man driving the Ford suffered injuries to his back,
neck, and jaw as a result of the impact.

The 57-year-old ex-anchor was seen "fleeing the scene of the
accident without rendering aid or stopping to provide
information," according to the police report. Afterward, she
drove by the scene several times with her damaged car before a
police officer pulled her over.

The arresting officer said Taylor admitted her culpability in
the crash, but assured him it was "not a big deal." Taylor
insisted on verifying the other driver's injuries, claiming he
was OK. She also told the officer it's "hard to be a good
person."

Taylor was allegedly on her way from a hotel, which police
verified was closed. Then, she claimed she came from a
restaurant in the nearby Royal Poinciana Plaza, but again,
police could not confirm any restaurant that recalled her as a
guest.

Police arrested Taylor and booked her at Palm Beach County Jail
under charges of careless driving and leaving the scene of an
accident involving injury. Taylor made her $3,000 bail and
pleaded not guilty to the charges.

In 2015, Taylor was charged with an aggravated DWI in the
Hamptons in New York. At the time, she was three times over the
legal limit.

There was a wine bottle found in Taylor's car on July 28, but it
was out of reach, according to officers.
