New York Knicks player Eddy Curry was awarded custody of his 3-year-old son Noah, after the murder of his ex-girlfriend and mother to the boy.  Nova Henry was murdered (along with 9-month-old daughter Ava - she was also Eddy's child) on January 25 of this year.  Henry's mother, Yolan, has been caring for Noah and she didn't want to hand him over to his father.

Yolan Henry, who has had custody of Noah since the murder of her daughter and granddaughter, told reporters last week, "I have spent the last few months trying to help my grandson adjust to life without his mother, Nova Henry, and baby sister, Ava. Noah clings to me every moment of the day and cries when I am not in his sight."

Noah's grandmother plans to appeal the court-ordered ruling because "[Noah] has seen his father twice his entire life.  They never knew my granddaughter and since she's been dead, [Eddy and his family] haven't seemed to care."

Eddy Curry is married to Patrice and they have four children together - Eddy III, Reign, Reigan and Reiganna.

Two counts of first degree murder have been brought against attorney Frederick Goings, 36, on February 22.  He had served as Nova Henry's lawyer in the custody case about baby Ava against Eddy Curry.
