LAS VEGAS – It was all cordiality and handshakes Tuesday during the first of six Democratic presidential debates, making it a night to bolster the campaign of frontrunner Hillary Clinton.
Out of all the candidates on the debate stage, CNN gave the former secretary of state a whopping 30 minutes and 26 seconds of air time, compared with a meager 9 minutes and 2 seconds for Lincoln Chafee, the Republican senator and Democratic governor of Rhode Island. Bernie Sanders, an independent Vermont senator and Clinton's nearest competitor, ate up 26 minutes and 42 seconds.
HARTFORD, Conn. (AP) — A woman who sued her 12-year-old nephew for $127,000 over injuries she received when he exuberantly greeted her at his birthday party four years ago was forced to go to court over her medical bills, her lawyers said Wednesday as backlash against her on social media sites poured in.
A jury on Tuesday rejected Jennifer Connell's lawsuit, finding the boy was not liable for her injuries. She had said she broke her wrist when the Westport boy jumped into her arms at his 8th-birthday party, causing her to fall.
