Winking murderer who threw his daughter into a river strapped to her car seat apologizes to girl's mother for end of their relationship... but not for killing the toddler

A homeless New Jersey dad complained that his designer wardrobe of Gucci suits and Prada accessories influenced a jury into finding him guilty last month of drowning his two-year-old girl in 2011.
Speaking before he was sentenced to life behind bars for tossing his daughter into a stream still strapped to her car seat, Arthur E. Morgan III said he wouldn't have worn his expensive suits if he knew he would be criticized by the media for it.
He also said that the media insisted on publishing photographs of him that portrayed him in a bad light - including the moment last month when a suited Morgan , 29, winked to cameras after a jury ruled he murdered Tierra Morgan-Glover.
Sentenced: Arthur Morgan III is led into Monmouth County Superior Court by Sheriffs officers for his sentencing hearing Wednesday, May 28, 2014, in Freehold, New Jersey

Month of 'sanity' tests for Pistorius: Judge formally orders outpatient assessment at psychiatric hospital to decide if he is capable of knowing he did wrong – opening way for him to beat murder charge

The judge in the Oscar Pistorius trial has formally ordered the Paralympian to undergo psychiatric evaluation to establish whether he was criminally responsible on the night he killed his girlfriend.
Judge Thokozile Masipa told Pistorius he must report to Pretoria's Weskoppies hospital, one of South Africa's top mental institutions, as an outpatient for up to 30 days, starting on May 26.
The Judge named three of the experts - one for the defence and two appointed by the court - who will test whether Pistorius was 'capable of appreciating the wrongfulness of his action'.
The results could offer a way for the double amputee to beat both the murder charge and a lesser one of culpable homicide (similar to manslaughter) if the court is convinced he was not of sound mind when he shot Reeva Steenkamp.

As he lay sleeping in a muddy trench in France one night, William Bird woke to find someone shaking him. It was 1917. He’d just been through the Battle of Vimy Ridge, and he was exhausted. Irritably, he tried to pull away — but whoever it was continued to shake him with some urgency.
So Bird — a journalist in civilian life — wearily opened his eyes and, to his utter astonishment, recognised his brother, Steve, who’d been reported missing in action two years earlier.
‘Steve put his warm hand over my mouth as I started to shout my happiness,’ Bird recalled. ‘Then he pointed to the sleepers in the bivvy and to my rifle. “Get your gear,” he said.’

Unemployed gardener who was 'too proud' to claim benefits killed himself because he 'felt demoralised after applying for 40 jobs in three months with no success'

An unemployed gardener desperate for work killed himself after he was left ‘demoralised’ by hours of form-filling at his local job centre.
Martin Hadfield, 20, of Tottington, Greater Manchester, was so keen to get a job that he refused to claim any welfare handouts and applied for 40 posts over three months.
But he failed to get responses on almost every application after being ‘undercut’ on wages by younger and less experienced candidates.
Mr Hadfield's period out of work and government red tape left him feeling ‘put down with no self worth’, according to his family.

Toni Braxton unbreaks her heart: Singer reveals how she pretended to speak in tongues to survive her parents' cult, fixed her wide nose but regrets not having lipo on her 'Serena Williams thighs'

Toni Braxton is a survivor. She grew up poor, and her parents' religious cult forced her to speak in tongues. She hated her wide nose and tiny breasts. She’s had to declare bankruptcy twice. She’s divorced, has an autistic son, and has been diagnosed with Lupus, a debilitating chronic inflammatory disease.
But in spite of all the trials and tribulations,  Braxton is considered one of the best R&B singers around, with six Grammy awards under her belt.
Now Braxton has written a memoir describing her tumultuous life, Unbreak My Heart, published by It Books, an imprint of Harper Collins. ‘I’m looking ahead with that ultimate hope - that peering back at my past heartbreaks will ultimately lead to healing’, she writes in her memoir.
A star is born: Because of her parents joining the Pillar of Truth congregation, Toni couldn't go roller-skating or go to a movie. That left singing in the choir

Don't give up, I was always picked last in games! Football superstar David Beckham returns to his old primary school to encourage children to get active

He's played for club and country, scored wonder goals and become one of the world's most famous footballers. But despite rising to sporting stardom, David Beckham has revealed that he once wasn't even the best player at his school.
He said: 'I used to practise football on the field. We had a few good young players in the school so I don't think I was the best player in the class. For some reason I always remember being picked last in the school games at break time.'
The father-of-four recently returned to Chase Lane Primary School, in East London, in his role as an ambassador for Sainsbury's Active Kids scheme.
