TEANECK, N.J. (CBSNewYork) — Charges had not been filed as of Monday for the tragic car crash that killed five members of a family from New Jersey. What caused a pickup truck driver to cross a center median in Delaware Friday before slamming into the family’s minivan? The Trinidads of Teaneck were as tight as a family could be. The four beautiful sisters were inseparable in life, and tragically so in death. “As a mother, the first thing you do is hug your kids because you don’t want anything like that to ever happen,” said Teaneck resident Paula Millan. The family was headed home from a vacation in Ocean City, Maryland on Friday when a pickup truck travelling in the wrong direction on Route 1 in Delaware collided with their minivan, killing 61-year-old Audi Trinidad and his daughters — Kaitlyn, 20, Danna, 17, and 13-year-old twins Melissa and Allison. Their mother, Mary Rose, was the only one to survive. The pickup hit Brian Kerns’ car right before the Trinidads’. He suffered only minor injuries. “I had gotten out and looked behind me and it sort of looked like a war zone,” said Kerns. “I heard about what happened to the family and I was sitting there in the emergency room and my heart was just pouring out to them.” Friends and loved ones are rallying to support Mary Rose Ballocanag while she recovers and lives with the unthinkable loss. Her daughter Kaitlyn was studying to be a nurse, the twins thrived in the arts, and friends say Danna was an honor student who selflessly helped others in need. “I would be falling behind and struggling and it was kind of obvious,” Danna’s friend, Armando Desequeira, said. “She’d just go, ‘Hey, this is the answer I’ll explain to you’.” Funeral arrangements were still pending as the family awaited the arrival of relatives coming from the Philippines. Meanwhile, grief counselors were being made available at Teaneck High School through Friday.

LONDON (CBSNewYork) – Serena Williams reached her 13th Wimbledon quarterfinal today, but she admits all that time practicing on the court forced her to miss a big moment in her daughter’s life. Instead of getting mom-shamed for it, many are coming to her defense on Twitter with their own missed moments, reports CBS2’s Alice Gainer. As the seven-time champion Williams overpowered the Russian Evgeniya Rodina 6-2, 6-2, the price of excellence was not lost on her. Serena Williams and her daughter Alexis Olympia watch the action during the first round of the 2018 Fed Cup at US Cellular Center on Feb. 10, 2018 in Asheville, North Carolina. (credit: Richard Shiro/Getty Images) She’s talked about her challenging pregnancy that left her bedridden for six weeks and her decision to stop nursing daughter Olympia after six months. But this weekend was different. “She took her first steps… I was training and missed it. I cried.” She took her first steps… I was training and missed it. I cried. — Serena Williams (@serenawilliams) July 7, 2018 Others tweeted in sympathy. “Ah Serena. I’m with you there. I’m in Russia at a World Cup. I watched mine take her first steps on a video, she’ll be proud of you when she goes up (I have to keep telling myself),” said @alibendertv. Ah Serena. I’m with you there.

Neither of us remember my first steps, but the lessons I learned from the way she lives life are so appreciated — Kashif Pasta (@KashifPasta) July 8, 2018 A lot of parents say being a mother or father is hard no matter what, and for some working parents, there’s a constant guilt. “Sometimes you’re at work and wondering what your child is doing,” said Alfred Varela, a father and grandfather. In New York City Park, it’s easy to find a park full of nannies, people watching other people’s children while their parents are at work. They say they hear that bit of regret from the kids’ parents all the time. “Of course there is the guilt because the nanny gets to see everything,” said Norma Prsaed, a nanny who is also a mom. “The first word, the first step, the first word – everything.” “It was tougher than the scoreline,” Williams said. “I knew we were both moms, and I’m not sure how often that’s happened, if ever. So it’s really cool. You can be a mom, you can still play tennis and you can still be great.”

SAN BERNARDINO (CBSLA/AP) — A Southern California prosecutor has been placed on leave following a report that he posted discriminatory comments on social media targeting a U.S. lawmaker and the victim of a police shooting. The San Bernardino County District Attorney’s Office on Monday said Deputy District Attorney Michael Selyem was placed on paid leave while an investigation is pending. The Orange County Register reported last week the gang prosecutor targeted Rep. Maxine Waters, former first lady Michelle Obama and Mexican immigrants with posts a critic described as “hateful rhetoric.” District Attorney Mike Ramos says he learned of the comments two weeks ago after other attorneys complained. “The San Bernardino County District Attorney’s Office does not condone hate, discrimination or incitement of violence,” Ramos said in a statement. “Our community and the entire criminal justice system depends on having fair, ethical, and unbiased prosecutors.” He says individual free speech rights must be balanced with the need for ethical and unbiased prosecutors. Deputy District Attorney Michael Selyem was placed on administrative leave Monday. (Photo via Facebook) Selyem apparently posted the comment in response to a Facebook post about controversial comments Waters made last month in which she apparently advocated for the public harassment of Trump administration members at public places. Since Waters made the comments, several administration officials have been heckled and harassed , including White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders and Homeland Security Secretary Kirstjen Nielsen. An email message was sent to Selyem seeking comment. (© Copyright 2018 CBS Broadcasting Inc. All Rights Reserved. The Associated Press contributed to this report.)

NEW YORK (CBSNewYork) – Continuous glucose monitors, or CGMs, have been around for some years. The devices were bulky to wear, had to be calibrated often and had limited ability to track and report blood sugars, reports CBS2’s Dr. Max Gomez. Now a new generation CGM is so good, many doctors say every diabetic should be using it. Keeping blood sugar within a narrow range is critical to avoid the long term complications of diabetes: blindness, kidney damage, heart attacks, strokes and amputations. For years that meant finger sticks to check blood sugar, a dozen or more times a day. “You’ve got to pull out a whole bunch of stuff and the fingersticks hurt, they hurt more than injections, you know, for people,” said Dr. Carol Levy of the Mount Sinai Diabetes Center. Even worse than the pain and inconvenience is that finger sticks only give a snapshot of blood sugar at that instant in time. “I never knew if it was going up or down or if it was staying stable,” said diabetic patient Lance Bergstein. Bergstein is a serious amateur race car driver who knows that high blood sugar means long-term complications, but low blood sugar on the track could be lethal because of impaired brain function. This is the point where continuous glucose monitors come in. The newest version, called the Dexcom G6, is a quantum leap in CGM technology. It’s a tiny needle that stays under a patients’ skin for about a week, sending signals about your blood sugar. “These devices have really been life changing for people,” said Levy. “It’s made a huge difference both in a reduction of high blood sugars and in the reduction of low blood sugars, these devices make dramatic differences.” The G6 CGM constantly uploads blood sugar readings to a smartphone, and from there to anyone a person decides should know the wearer’s levels. Also important is the ability to set alarms for too high or low sugar levels. “It’s the loss of fear of going to sleep at night worrying whether your blood sugar will be too high or too low,” said Levy. “You’re gonna get an alarm, you don’t have to wake up.” Another major plus is the applicator that attaches the G6. “The insertion of it is a night and day difference,” said Bergstein. “They’ve came out with a one button applicator that is completely painless and there’s no calibration involved.” Gomez notes there is another new CGM called the Libre, but patients have to wave a wand over it to get the readings instead of automatic uploads to a phone. Patients can’t set hi-low alarms with it.

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA/AP) — A film crew member is alleging in a lawsuit that Johnny Depp twice punched him on the Los Angeles set of a movie about the killing of the Notorious B.I.G. The lawsuit filed Friday in Los Angeles County Superior Court by location manager Gregg “Rocky” Brooks also claims that he was fired from the movie, called “City of Lies,” when he refused to sign papers saying he wouldn’t sue over the incident. “City of Lies” chronicles police investigations of the deaths of Tupac Shakur and Biggie Smalls, and is based on a book by Randall Sullivan titled “LAbyrinth”. Brooks alleges that in April 2017, the movie’s director forced him to inform Depp that an upcoming shot would have to be the day’s last. The lawsuit says Depp screamed obscenities at Brooks and punched him twice in the ribs, then offered him $100,000 to punch back.

It’s the latest legal trouble for Depp after two former bodyguards claim filed a suit in May claiming they’re owed unpaid wages, overtime and were allegedly forced “to protect Depp from himself”on the job.
