I'm Sidney Sumner. New Jersey prosecutors have released audio from multiple 911 calls,
which were placed last month after a 17-year-old boy allegedly ran over two girls.
Seven emergency calls were made after the teen struck and killed Maria Niotis and Isabella Salas,
both 17, as they rode e-bikes in Cranford on September 29th.
I'm just a rear emergency.
I head by car to tell.
We need police, ambulance.
Billy's two people.
One's under a car.
One is down the street.
It doesn't...
Not good.
Are they conscious in breathing?
Nobody's conscious.
Nobody.
Everyone's done.
Not moving.
It's fatal.
Authorities claim the suspect was driving 70
in a 25-mile-per-hour zone
when he ran over the two girls
and drove away.
Our friends at Crime Online have more.
The hit-and-run driver doesn't get far.
Police find the suspect vehicle
a black 2021 Jeep compass broken down from damage sustained in the crash just blocks away on Lincoln Avenue
with a bike still lodged in the front bumper. The 17-year-old boy behind the wheel is briefly detained
and ultimately released to his family with 15 traffic tickets while police continue to investigate the crash.
The Neotis and Salas families release a statement claiming their daughter's deaths were not the result
of an accidental hit and run. They say the 17-year-old driver, a coward of a man, has been planning an attack
on Maria for months. Friends and family say the teen, Maria's classmate at Cranford High,
who once pursued Maria romantically, has been harassing, stalking, and threatening Maria
for at least three months. Neotis had a protective order against the suspect. Though prosecutors
have kept his identity private, traffic tickets reveal his name, Vincent Battoloro. Reports indicate
Bataloro parked outside Neotis's home for three months and was never arrested. The teen posted to his
gaming YouTube channel about his campaign against Neotis for Daining to complain to the school
about his behavior.
I think Maria's hungry.
I think we're going to send her a pizza.
Sure.
So, you all know I have a vengeance against this girl for accusing me of sending.
I'm going to call a pizza to her house.
Yes.
Ash at the door.
So, Fula, or my.
dad wants to call you, Faluba, don't fool me. Stupid fucking animal. You should not have accused
me of sending the porn, and you should not have dragged me into creating a police report.
A day after the deadly crash, he took to YouTube again to claim he was bullied. During the
live stream, he mentioned all the engagement he was receiving from viewers who admonished him
for Salas and Neotis's slings. Batallora was arrested two days after Neotis' deaths,
though he remains jailed on two counts of first-degree murder, he has not been charged as an adult.
Union County prosecutors have until December to petition to have the case moved from juvenile to
adult court. A trial is underway for a Tennessee mother accused in neglecting her 13-year-old
son to death. Cadarice Maddox had cerebral palsy and weighed just 38 pounds when he died on July 6th,
2022. An autopsy report said the boy died of malnutrition. A home health care nurse testified that she
frequently arrived at the home to find Kadaris laying in a bathtub, wearing a disposable diaper,
often filled with feces. Maisha Mays said his mother would invariably tell her she was about to wash him
off. Mays described the mother as absent and unresponsive to her son, frequently ignoring him,
blaming him for family issues, and even saying she wished she was dead. Mays testified that
Kadaris was a happy child away from his home during the week when his mother let him spend time
at her home. Mays recall on the stand, once my husband got home, he would interact more with
him, dancing with Cadarice, singing with him, we just wanted to make him feel at home. Mays said when
she brought him back to the Maddox home, the boy cried. Kidaris's pediatrician also testified about
his alarming weight loss. Dr. Gary Griffith said that the child weighed 47 pounds at his last
in-person visit in December 2020 and that his general examination was okay. He said the weight was low,
even for a child with cerebral palsy, but what I need is a second point, because then that
tells me what the rate is. Griffith never got that second point because Maddox never brought
the boy back to see the doctor. Cheyenne Maddox is standing trial for murder and aggravated
child neglect. The trial continues. A Missouri woman has been charged with domestic assault
after a violent fight with her boyfriend ended when she hit him with garden shears and tried to
run him over with his truck. During questioning, Newark told Douglas County Sheriff Deputies, if I
going to run him over, I would have run him over. You know what I'm saying? A probable cause statement
says that the pair had gotten into an argument, leading the boyfriend to get into his truck to
drive away. Newark followed him into the truck and began hitting and kicking him. The boyfriend
was also fighting with her and at one point bitter on the hand. The boyfriend said he struck back
in self-defense matching Newark's claims. That's when she said she grabbed the garden shears and
hit him in the head. Deputies noted contusions on the boyfriend's torso as well as a three-inch
cut on his head. Newark had a bruise below one eye and a cut on her thumb. After Newark hit him with
the garden shears, the boyfriend got out of the truck and ran for the house. That's when Newark
took over the driver's seat and drove toward him, prompting him to take cover behind a tree. Newark
drove past him and he ran into the house, locked the doors, and called 911. Newark broke the
screens on two windows trying to get in before deputies arrived. In addition to a charge of domestic
assault causing serious injury, Newark is charged with armed criminal action.
She was released from jail on Friday on her own recognizance.
The boyfriend was not charged.
