DIRTY doc Zhi Alan Cheng drugged and sexually assaulted at least six women — including three passed out patients at a New York City hospital — and recorded his vile crimes on video, lawmen say. District Attorney Melinda Katz calls Cheng, 33, “a sexual predator of the absolute worst kind, a serial rapist” who was willing to violate “every standard of human decency” — and urges anyone who believes they were victimized to come forward. The gastroenterologist received his now-suspended medical license in June 2020 and was considered a promising talent at NewYork-Presbyterian Queens — until he was fired after his arrest. One of Cheng’s female friends contacted cops in December, telling them the sicko knocked her out and raped her — a twisted scenario made notorious by disgraced actor Bill…

Nuts fight depression! + SNACKING on just one ounce of nuts per day — roughly the equivalent of 20 almonds — may reduce the risk of developing depression by 17 percent! That’s the conclusion of researchers from Spain’s University of Castilla-La Mancha, who tracked the eating habits and mental health of 13,500 people aged 37 to 73 for five years. The scientists believe nuts’ anti-inflammatory and antioxidant effects on the brain may be responsible for warding off the blues. Bad air builds super bugs! + EXCESSIVE air pollution may be to blame for the rise in antibiotic-resistant infections, which make life-threatening diseases such as pneumonia and tuberculosis even more dangerous, a new study suggests.

SUSPECTED Gilgo Beach serial killer Rex Heuermann was just hours away from slaughtering his 11th victim — another pretty young prostitute — when New York police took him off the street, sources close to the investigation say. Once cops got Heuermann’s DNA from a pizza and linked him to the trail of bodies strewn across the beach on New York’s Long Island, lawmen began monitoring the hulking 6-foot-5, 270-pound monster’s every move. After worried shrinks analyzed his increasingly bizarre behavior, sick internet searches and unique patterns used to lure an unsuspecting hooker, they sounded the alarm that the kill-crazy fiend was ready to strike again, sources claim! The 59-year-old commercial architect had to be arrested immediately — or another young hooker was toast, say sources. “There was obviously considerable urgency…

FISHY behavior by Luke Jones and Laura Biles-kalne on Below Deck Down Under caused Capt. Jason Chambers to fire the troublemaking two-some for sexual misconduct — and critics tell GLOBE the shocking incidents are just the latest examples of on-set agonies caused by ratings-hungry honchos! Bosun Jones landed in hot water after clambering naked into the bunk of third steward Margot Sisson, who was passed out drunk after the crew’s wild night of partying. Sources dish alarmed producers feared the gal was in danger of being raped — and ousted the boozy ne’er-do-well! After Chambers made the cad walk the plank, second steward Bileskalne defended her boorish buddy and whined his axing wasn’t “fair!” But bellyaching Bileskalne was thrown overboard in the same episode after she kept cozying up to…

An insider snitches most of the stars’ perks will be gone when the game show returns in September and working on the show will no longer be “a five-star experience” like it once was. “Times are tough, and everyone must live with it, including Ken and Mayim,” says the mole. “They’ve been grumbling about their salaries for the longest time, but they’re being told they’re lucky to have what they’ve got. “Mayim and Ken wanted to bump their million-dollar  paychecks, but they’ve been told there’s not a chance in…

Insiders say it’s rubbing the 71-year-old former movie mogul the wrong way that Oscar winner Brody, 50 — who appeared in two of Harvey’s movies when the tubby tyrant co-ran indie studio Miramax with brother Bob — has been dating fashion designer Georgina, 47, since 2020. After a tsunami of rape and sexual assault accusations drowned Harvey in 2017 and forced him and his company out of business, he was convicted of charges including rape, forced oral copulation and first degree sexual misconduct.
