A long island architect arrested and charged with three of the gilgo beach murders which have kept the community on alert for more than a decade now. And Abcs Aaron Katersky is out, and back with the latest. Reporter good morning to you. For more than a decade those unsolved murders kept long island shore towns on edge, and those communities were stunned when police said the alleged killer is a suburban dad who had been living a double life. This is the moment rex heuermann, a suburban dad who took the train to work at his Architecture Firm in new york city was arrested outside his office and charged in the gilgo beach killings. Rex heuermann is a demon that walks among us. A predator that ruined families. Reporter ten bodies were discovered in 2010 and 2011, terrifying quiet shore communities on long island. Heuermann is accused of killing three women, amber costello, megan waterman, melissa barthelemy, and suspected in the murder of a fourth, maureen brainardbarnes, all four found in a wooded stretch of beach, in december 2010, their bodies wrapped in hunt g burlap, each in their 20s, petite and working as escorts. Prosecutors said heuermann sent this selfie he sent using burner phones to solicit the women for sex. They compared the victims phones with the burner phones and immediately honed in on some similarities. Reporter investigators say they linked heuermann to the killings through the phones, his car, a chevrolet avalanche, and dna lifted from this pizza box in a trash can outside his manhattan office. Rex heuermann seen in an old you tube video boasting about his career running his Architecture Firm. Im an architectural consultant, a troubleshooter, born and raised on long island. Reporter heuermann appeared in court handcuffed and dishevelled, his attorney entering a not guilty plea on his behalf, and saying heuermann denies being the killer. But prosecutors have been watching this suspect for more than a year. They feared he could still be a danger saying he was still using burner phones to search for child pornography and solicit sex workers and had 92 guns. Guys, hes now being held without bail.

Researchers find continued exercise throughout pregnancy may be the key to reducing the risk of depression, and one kind of exercise specifically showing the most benefits for expectant mothers. Abc news medical contributor, dr. Alok patel is breaking it down. Maybe bust a move. We enjoy having you. Tell us about this study. Ooh. Janai, this is a headline we should be able to vibe to. A meta analysis, a study looking at other studies, and it looked at 3,000 people over the course of 20 years and multiple countries and found that team based or supervised exercise, especially dancing during pregnancy can reduce the signs of post partum depression, reduce the risk of it. This is definitely something that we should all be happy about, especially given how debilitating post partum depression can be and how many people it affects worldwide. Janai you know, i am so moved by this because this is something thats on my mind, wanting to prevent post partum depression being pregnant now, but this is something to do during pregnancy to try to prevent this afterwards, and what do you recommend to get the most benefits from this type of exercise . Thats an important distinction because they found that the best benefit really occurred when people were doing this during pregnancy, you know, possibly its the blood flow, its the feel good neuro hormones, its the team environment, but whatever it may be, they found the best benefit came when people were moving and grooving or doing any type of exercise, 30 to 45 minutes per day, at least three to four times a week. Janai good to know, dr. Patel, we appreciate you being here with us, and man, the way you bust a move, if you could see whit johnson when he gets moving. Thank you so much, dr. Patel. Oh oh.

Turning up the volume on loud quitting with employees becoming openly unhappy on the job. And Alexis Christoforous is here with the details. Good morning, again. Reporter forget about quiet quitting, frustrated employees are loud quitting, instead of doing the bare minimum, and silently checking out of their jobs, loud quitters are actively disengaging in the workplace, and theyre not afraid to show it. A gallop poll found one in five workers are loudly tossing in the towel, it goes beyond being unhappy on the job. Its stressed out and fed up. Loud quitters are resentful that their needs arent being met, and theyre acting up, doing things like sending disruptive emails, making inappropriate outbursts at work, undermining their companys goals, and bad mouthing their boss on social media. The poll finds loud quitting is not something management can afford to ignore. Disengaged workers can be bad for company morale, and cost the Global Economy 8. 8 trillion. Employees reveal they value talking openly with their manager, having more control over daily responsibilities and having a fair shot at being promoted. Experts say leaders should check in with employees regularly, help them find purpose in their work and make them feel valued and connected to their team. As for workers, before you loud or quiet quit, take a beat. Decide what you want from the next opportunity and make sure youre running towards the next job, instead of running away from the current one. Guys. Whit anybody whos ever quit or been fired, though, you wanted to do it. Maybe you didnt, but you thought about it at least once. Janai did you, whit . Whit maybe. Some people, so i have heard indirectly. Thank you so much, alexis. Take a beat, as alexis says. Now to cricket, one of the most popular sports in the world, now hitting the pitch right here in the u. S. , a historic season is bringing high stakes excitement to texas this weekend. Take a look. Its the sport racking up 2 1 2 billion fans across the globe. Now cricket is taking its hardest swing yet at cracking the American Sports market, major League Cricket, hoping to score big with sports fans this weekend, transforming grand prr referee, prairie, texas, into cricket et city usa for the sports inaugural season. Whit our ashan singh sitting down with a National Hero in 2012 when he capped into indias under 19 team to world cup glory. Why come to america to play cricket . Everyone knows in the world theres Something Big happening in america, and they all want to be a part of it. Whit another headliner, former english international, liam lund kwit. When the chance came to be involved in cricket here, it was crazy and i jumped at the chance. Reporter what is it like being in the United States and having to explain your sport . When i used to say cricket, they thought i sat in a hole, whacking a ball around, playing croquet. Its exciting when people show interest especially coming across to america, someone whos never seen cricket or heard of cricket. Whit here with more more is mahela jayawardene, a card carrying member of the cricket hall of fame and joins us live from grand prairie, texas, good morning to you, its great to have you. Good morning, whit, good to be here. Whit lets jump into it. Major League Cricket starting its inaugural on thursday, how is the very first match . It was brilliant. I think we had a full house here. The atmosphere was amazing. And yesterday we had a double header, two games, it was brilliant, and i think everyone who was here is enjoying it, as in my franchise, we are very very proud to be here as well. Whit for a lot of americans, they might be new to the sport, how are the fans there in texas responding . They have been fantastic. They have flown from different parts of the u. S. As well just to watch the first edition, hopefully, you know, we get to take this around america in the future, but i think, you know, talent has been fantastic. I think, you know, everyones enjoyed it. A lot of people have been waiting for this for quite some time. But trivia, i mean, the first ever International Cricket match was played between america and canada way back in 1845, which is just something special. Its good to have cricket back in the u. S. Whit now that the new season is underway here, what can these new american fans expect from major League Cricket . What are some ways that they can get into the game and understand it for the first time . Well, i think its a bit similar to baseball because its averages, scores, you know, batters, pitchers, or ballers. So i think its a numbers game as well. I think, you know, people are used to baseball will probably adapt quite quickly with the game. And understand that, but i think, you know, its a sport that, you know, worldwide, a lot of people follow and theres a lot in the u. S. Who loves the game. Im sure that, you know, the world will go across and people will enjoy the atmosphere, not just on the field. Off the field as well, its been brilliant. Everyone will enjoy that. Whit mehala, we know youre a legend in the sport. We appreciate you taking the time to speak with us this morning. Thank you so much, and congratulations on the start of the new stop sign. Thank you so much, guys, appreciate that. Whit lets go back to Somara Theodore in atlanta. Good morning once again. Somara good morning, whit, this incessant heat is showing no signs of letting up.

Even though some of us are starting to let our guards down after memories of being woken up by rogue furbies screeching in the middle of the night. And while the new furby promises not to do that, its just just as weird. But thats what fans want. For decades they have been relegated to the darkest corners of our closets, plotting their return until now. Let go of me. Reporter yep, furby is back. 25 years after the furby frenzy of the late 1990s. More than 40 million furbies sold in the first three years of the market. People were into the fact that it felt like it a toy that you didnt just watch play. It played with you. It was kind of magical at the time, really innovative, new technology. Plus its a little weird, right. Some people love things that are a little bit weird. Reporter now all of these years later, the fur phenomenon strikes again. Stories of furbies waking up in the middle of the night starting conversations unprompted. For me, furbies occupy the same space as like big foot. So big foos at has all of these rumors. Furby has rumors, it talks when you take the batteries out, and all of that kind of stuff, but people also kind of like big foot. Reporter even still, big foot of the toy world, beloved by super fans. Theyre more interactive than a traditional stuffed animal but theyre more physical than a video game. Reporter hasbro resurrecting the owl hamster hybrid named one of historys best toys by time. In the list of big toys in history, its definitely up top.

But also its having a therapist has saved my life, and i think when something saves your life, youre going to talk about it. I remember i think it was in europe, i read a review that said something about, you know, going to an imagine dragons show is like going to church and dan reynolds is the pastor. I feel like that encapsulated very well just the healing and positiveness that comes out of the show. Reporter six albums and 15 years later, imagine dragons is just getting started.

Back on gma, were savoring summer with a seasonal staple that would be a rack of ribs, of course, and were serving up the top tips and tricks to ribs done right. Chris stark from hill country barbecue is in the house. Thank you so much for joining us. My pleasure. Whit folks here know ribs are very dear to my heart. I have been asking for them for a long time, they have been ignoring me. Today is the day. Thank you for being part of it. So what is the trick to making the perfect ribs . Number one is season it well. You cant get salt inside of it after its done cooking, right . Got to get that packed on. You know, you cant really go too far with the rest of the seasoning mix besides the salt. You can over salt it. Be careful, you know, but when it comes to the chili powder, garlic powder, its up to you as far as what your final product is going to be. Whit if youre an amateur, just getting started, the most important thing to keep in mind when youre making ribs . Be patient. Il tyre done, and people try to, you know, get them on the grill or get them on your smoker early. Theres no good way to hurry it up. Whit dont rush the rib. Dont rush the rib. Janai cant rush greatness. Theres a reason why i am as exhausted as i am right now. These were freshly cooked today. Whit what time did you start. Like 4 15 janai we appreciate you. We appreciate the chicken. Cooked at 4 18. Janai ribs can be intimidating. Give the folks at home some tips. Which cut of meat should we use . This would be collectively known as a st. Louis cut of a spare rib. You know, we try not to use the st. Louis terminology too much because that usually entails theres some sauce on there, but in this case, were talking about whit im going to go ahead janai tell him what you said about sauce, why you do a dry rub instead. Texas barbecue is spoken for by the quality of the meat, the quality of the smoke, and frankly, the seasoning is the third part of that triangle. These ribs whit you can put a few more on there. Thank you. Gio is a smoker required, because you talked about that smoke . Required, for what we do, absolutely. Gio looks like you prefer it. At home, you know, i dont think i can tell you youre not going to do it in an oven and have the same product you have here. I can tell you youre not going to do it on a grill and ever have it be good. Grill is too hot. It is direct heat. You cant control that temperature to get these to cook for three, four hours. Whit this is so good. He made this this morning. And i can tell. I mean, this is phenomenal. Its juicy. Somebody complains about it, they can janai the biggest question of the day we dont mind, but is there a less messy way to eat ribs . I suppose you could blend it and drink it, but thats gio in this case . No, i mean, the best process to follow up is a nice wet nap or a shower like i usually need. Whit were going to need a shower too, im going to need one when im done with these. Chris, thank you so much. My pleasure. Whit these are fantastic, were going to devour all of these.
