Suspect Adem Nikeziq, 30, wept uncontrollably during his first appearance before a judge, after his lawyer broke the news that his seven-months-pregnant fiancee and unborn daughter were dead.
“No one told him that his fiancee and baby had passed,” Nikeziq’s lawyer, Mark Fonte, told The Post outside court. “He found out minutes ago, just before he came out [into the courtroom]. When I told him, he broke down crying, sobbing. He was at first completely in disbelief.”
His fiancee, Adriana Sylmetaj, 23 — whose sister is an NYPD cop — was in the passenger seat when the couple’s speeding SUV struck a barrier and a utility pole early Saturday, with the vehicle splitting in half, prosecutors said in court.
