Arrest Made For Murder of Eddy Curry's Ex And Her Baby

2009_01_curry.jpg Chicago police have made an arrest in the murder of Nova Henry, the mother of Knicks center Eddy Curry's son, and her 10-month-old daughter, both killed last month. While police have not identified the arrestee, it was previously reported that Henry had a restraining order against ex-boyfriend Frederick Goings after he had choked her and threatened to shoot one of her relatives. Henry's mother told reporters, "I always had a feeling it was him. He told me that was what he was going to do. I never thought he would." The Chicago Sun-Times had broken news a few weeks back that sealed court paternity tests showed that Curry was not only the father of Henry's three-old-son Noah who witnessed the shooting, but also of Ava, the infant who was murdered. But in (another) strange twist in this case—not to mention an incredibly tumultuous period for Curry—the paper seems to have gone back to only alluding to one shared child between the two, despite no clear indication of a retraction.
