Joan Rivers’ autopsy inconclusive

An autopsy has failed to determine the cause of Joan Rivers’ death.

Girl, 9, who shot instructor with Uzi lived in Sydney until last year

The 9-year-old girl who tragically killed an instructor at a shooting range in Arizona attended a Sydney primary school until last year, the Daily Mail reports.

It is understood that the girl was born in Australia, before she and her father, an investment banker, her mother, and two older siblings returned to the US this year. Her mother is believed to be an Australian citizen.

The family lived in the Sydney suburb of Mosman, and the girl attended the local primary school.

Their lawyer said the family was ‘devastated’ in a statement released shortly after the incident was reported. No further comment has been made after the identity of the family was revealed.

Secret recordings from the apartment of alleged Tinder murderer revealed

Secret recordings from the final hours of Warriena Wright’s life have been released by Queensland police, News Limited reports.

The recordings allegedly depict Gable Tostee – the man charged with her murder, who Wright met for a ‘Tinder’ date shortly before she died – verbally abusing her, calling her a “psycho little bitch” and threatening to throw her off the balcony.

Wright died after falling from Tostee’s balcony on August 15.

The recording, extracted from Tostee’s mobile phone, allegedly captures Tostee reprimanding Wright for being violent with him, saying: “That’s enough, you have worn out your welcome, you have to leave.”

Police allege that Tostee rang his lawyer 38 seconds after Wright’s death, and ordered a pizza within the hour.

Husband of mother who sent dance teacher child abuse texts appears in court

The husband of the woman who sent Sydney dance teacher Grant Davies explicit pictures of their two daughters has asked the court for her release.

The man described how his children are “suffering tremendously” without their mother, who has pleaded guilty to producing and disseminating child abuse material.

Speaking in Sydney’s District Court, the man described Davies’ now closed RG Dance studio as cult-like, saying, “I had no control over my wife and two daughters”.

The man said that the lure of child stardom was too great for his wife.

“She unfortunately, I believe, came across a very evil person and she was too weak to resist the temptation he put in front of her,” he said.

The woman will be sentenced on September 10.

ICJ postpones hearing in Australia/East Timor spy case

The ICJ has postponed their hearing in the Australia/East Timor spy case, stating that both parties are currently negotiating an “amicable settlement”.

The case concerns documents seized in an Australian raid on the premises of East Timor’s lawyers.

The documents relate to the East Timor gas treaty, a treaty with Australia that East Timor wants scrapped. East Timor alleges that Australian officials bugged their cabinet offices during treaty negotiations, rendering the treaty void.

In the present case, which only relates to the documents, the ICJ is considering whether client legal privilege exists on an international scale.

WHO to use survivors’ blood to treat Ebola

A range of experimental methods are being trialled to treat the Ebola crisis in west Africa, including the use of antibodies in the blood of survivors.

Following a two-day meeting in which various plans of action were discussed, using the blood of survivors of the disease – which has a 50 per cent survival rate – emerged as the most promising solution for immediate implementation.

Two vaccines are also being developed, and the early results from safety tests of each will be available in November.

“We have to change the sense that there is no hope,” Dr. Marie-Paule Kieny, a WHO assistant director-general, said during a press conference on Friday.
