Heather Mack, 21, told how she killed her mother Sheila von Wiese-Mack (bottom right) at the St Regis in Nusa Dua, Bali, in August 2014 before making her boyfriend stuff her body in a suitcase (inset) in three prison videos uploaded to YouTube on Thursday (left). She claimed the killing was revenge for her father James's 2006 death which she believes her mother was responsible for. She said she coerced boyfriend Tommy Schaefer (together, top right) into helping her get rid of the body and says she later forced him to confess to the killing in court so that she could keep her $1.3million inheritance. 'I don't regret killing my mother,' Mack, who now lives in prison with the pair's toddler daughter, said in the tape.

As a furious legal battle erupted over the president's controversial immigration executive order, a defiant Trump declared his team will win 'for the safety of the country' while attending a ritzy Florida gala on Saturday night. He was attending the annual gala of the American Red Cross at his Florida club's ballroom with First Lady Melania during the height of the legal tug of war battle. The 45th president looked stony-faced and said he was confident the Department of Justice would win its recent appeal against the Seattle court ruling that temporarily suspended his foreign traveler ban. Trump's policy, which was only in place for a week, sparked worldwide protests before it was swiftly undone by one federal judge on Friday. The president was at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida and seemed furious his celebratory weekend was interrupted by the ruling as demonstrators protested him nearby in Palm Beach (inset).

President Donald Trump raised eyebrows once again on Saturday after he justified his 'respect' for Russian President Vladimir Putin by pointing out that the United States has 'a lot of killers' and asking, 'Well, you think our country is so innocent?' Trump made the remarks in a recorded interview with Fox News host Bill O'Reilly. The full interview will air on the Fox network before the Super Bowl on Sunday. The remarks angered conservatives on Twitter.

Just minutes after Alec Baldwin returned to NBC studios as President Donald Trump, Melissa McCarthy surprised the audience by coming on stage to play a blustering Sean Spicer. McCarthy used the opportunity to mock some of Spicer's more controversial attributes, namely his use of 'alternative facts' and contentious relationship with the press. In her opening remarks as the Press Secretary, she says: 'Before we begin, I know the press and myself have gotten off to a rocky start. 'When I say rocky I mean in the sense of "Rocky" the movie because I came out here to punch you in the face, and also I don't talk so good.' Later, in an impersonation of Spicer taking questions from the press, he quickly grows frustrated at journalists asking about the role of chief strategist and key adviser Steve Bannon, turning to toys to explain the President's executive order.

Visa holders from seven predominantly Muslim countries hurried to board US-bound flights at the weekend while Donald Trump's travel ban remained blocked. They feared they might have only a slim window through which to enter the country after a federal judge temporarily stopped the week-old ban. US District Judge James Robart blocked Trump's measure Friday in Seattle.Those affected included Iran-born, Italy-based robotics researcher Nima Enayati (right), and Ammar Alnajjar (inset), who had been visiting his wife in Turkey when the ban was put in forced. Also affected was Hanan Isweiri, who was separated from her Colorado-based family (left, with Isweiri) after attending her father's funeral in Libya.

NEW A couple in South Carolina is fighting to keep a three-year-old girl they legally adopted at three weeks old after losing a court ruling to her biological father who was just released from prison and wants to raise her. Three-year-old Braelynn (pictured left) has lived with Tammy and Edward Dalsing (pictured right) since she was a newborn in Rock Hill. Despite legally adopting the toddler in 2015, a court recently ruled that she belongs with her biological father after he appealed the adoption order.

Tom Brady posted a heartfelt photo to social media on Friday announcing that his family has arrived in Houston for his sixth Super Bowl appearance. His mother, Galynn, has reportedly been sick for the last eighteen months, and it was feared she might not be well enough to attend the game. Brady admitted through tears that she hadn't been present at a single game this season, and his father only made it to one, which was 'atypical'.

Eric LeGrand, 26, was hit hard during a game against Army in 2010. The star player broke two of his vertebrae while making a tackle on a kick off. The damage was so severe doctors told him he would never breathe, eat or walk on his own again.  On Sunday he will watch his former teammates who now play for the Patriots (from top left clockwise) Devin McCourty, Duron Harmon, Logan Ryan and Jonathan Freeny . Falcons player Mohamed Sanu (center) was also on LeGrand's team at Rutgers.

NEW Cindy Mathis's 16-year-old Macy daughter died on November 25 in hospital five days after being in a car accident with her boyfriend in Tifton, Georgia. Her mother was still reeling from her death when she came across a pile of letters she had given her as birthday gifts earlier in the year. One, titled 'Open when you miss me,' read: 'Hey mommy. I'm sorry that you're missing me. I hope wherever you are or whatever you're doing you're okay. 'I'm probably missing you too.

In what's thought to be the first conviction of its kind, a Canadian court recently found two parents guilty of taking their 13-year-old daughter across the border for a sexual purpose when she was forced to marry Warren Jeffs, as their Canadian sect leader alone has 145 children with 27 wives. British Colombia Supreme Court Justice Paul Pearlman ruled Friday that former husband and wife Brandon J. Blackmore and Emily Ruth Gail Blackmore are guilty of taking their daughter across the border in 2004 to marry the now imprisoned Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (FLDS) leader Warren Jeffs. In addition, the charges against 59-year-old Winston Blackmore (left) came after Special Prosecutor Peter Wilson approved three 'unlawful removal of a child from Canada...' charges against the former couple and Oler. Winston Blackmore is married to 27 women with whom he has at least 145 children in the polygamist community of Bountiful, British Columbia. Top and bottom right children play inside the community at one of two schools.

Blanket Jackson made a rare public appearance in Los Angeles on Friday night amid claims his late father Michael was murdered. The 14-year-old - whose real name is Prince Michael Jackson II - looked in good spirits as he headed to Hollywood hotspot Catch with his friends. Laughing and joking with the group, the youngster seemed to be enjoying himself on the night. It was a rare public outing for the teenager - who is the youngest of Michael's three children - Michael, 19, Paris 18, and Blanket. His appearance came after elder sister Paris claimed their father had been murdered during a candid interview with Rolling Stone magazine. Blanket hit the headlines back in 2002 when his troubled father dangled him from a hotel balcony in Berlin, Germany (inset).

The Mail on Sunday reveals astonishing evidence that the organisation that is the world's leading source of climate data rushed to publish a landmark paper that exaggerated global warming and was timed to influence the historic Paris Agreement on climate change. The report claimed that the 'pause' or 'slowdown' in global warming in the period since 1998 - revealed by UN scientists in 2013 - never existed, and that world temperatures had been rising faster than scientists expected. But the whistleblower, Dr John Bates, a top NOAA scientist with an impeccable reputation, has shown The Mail on Sunday irrefutable evidence that the paper was based on misleading, 'unverified' data.

Cesilie Carlton, a 35-year-old American high diver, is seen leaping headfirst from a 55ft high platform aboard the Harmony of the Seas cruise ship as the fast-moving ocean churns past below her. Cesilie, who is also currently a Red Bull cliff diver, has amassed more than 250,000 views on Instagram since the footage was posted last week. The impressive and frankly terrifying video was shot aboard the Harmony of the Seas cruise ship by her colleague, fellow diver Sydney Brown.

Cerantola said he is moving past the incident and now has 29 photographers to choose from.

As an exhibition celebrates the life and wardrobe of the late Princess of Wales, David Sassoon - one of her favourite designers and confidants - reveals how he helped her become a fashion icon. He is the designer who, as one half of Bellville Sassoon, the label of choice among privileged young ladies in the late 1970s, took Lady Di from junior Sloane ranger - all floaty skirts, cashmere cardigans and pie-crust collars - and discreetly steered her in the direction of fully fledged fashion icon. Diana's loyalty to him was absolute: he designed more than 70 gowns for her over nearly two decades. (Pictured: Diana in some of his creations and his initial sketches.)

A woman who was left for dead after her neck was brutally broken by a high school wrestling coach returned to the woods where she once lay helplessly for more than 30 hours. Ashley Reeves (main with Elizabeth Smart) was thought to be dead by investigators who found her in the woods of Belleville, Illinois, covered in thousands of insect bites (top right) after Samson Shelton choked her with a belt in 2006. Upon revisiting the scene of the harrowing crime with kidnapping survivor and Crime Watch Daily 's Correspondent Elizabeth Smart, Reeves said: 'I think it's kinda hard to believe that this is actually where I was for that long and in that condition. '[It] makes me feel like maybe I am as tough as everybody says I am,' Reeves said, after she beat all odds and learned how to swallow, talk, and move her arms and legs again. Bottom right, Shelton during his interrogation

Long before he was elected president of the United States, businessman Donald Trump commissioned a Spanish firm to design (top and bottom left) the largest and most beautiful yacht in the world. Over the following months, Jaime Oliver (pictured with Trump in 1993 inside Trump Tower) and his son IÒigo built up a close personal relationship with the future White House resident. Together they worked on the conceptual design of the Trump Princess, from the first sketches through to the completed blueprints. The company was paid $170,000 to design the opulent 420-foot luxury vessel. Ultimately, however, the project was abandoned at a time when several of Trump's hotels and casinos had filed for bankruptcy.

Melbourne shoppers can now purchase their essentials at a one-stop shop that will sure come in handy at all hours of the day. Vitamin Warehouse, located in St Kilda, comes complete with 13 vending machines - all stocked with a range of products at cheaper prices than his competitors. Despite the automated shop operating 24 hours a day, there are no retail workers, including assistants or a manager to run the store. And that's because owner Hari Shotham (pictured) simply monitors his business by accessing the store's surveillance cameras through his mobile phone.

A video was posted online that shows a musically gifted chicken named Jogku as she pecks piano keys along to the tune of 'America the Beautiful'. The patriotic pecker is named Jogku, and is a 19-month-old Brahma Bantam who lives in Germantown, Maryland. The chicken follows a red light as it appears under different keys, signalling which one to peck next.

Breathtaking footage of a geomagnetic storm was captured by an airplane passenger while flying east over Canada. Better known as 'Northern Lights', the storms create 'auroral currents', which create the glowing colorful lights sparkling in the horizon. The currents' reflection can be seen appearing much whiter over the bright city - and growing a deeper shade of emerald as the city lights fade.

These spectacular images show lion siblings seemingly trying to rip each other part - but moments later they're once again best pals. The snaps were taken at Antelope Park in Zimbabwe by Irish photographer David Jenkins. He said: 'It was very exciting and fast - a real challenge to try to catch with a camera. After the fight, they were exhausted (bottom right) and just collapsed on top of each other before catching a much needed catnap.'
