Vilified woman ‘never comfortable’ suing Connecticut nephew

The Connecticut boy appeared dazed, giving short, spaced-out answers, in contrast to his chatty aunt from New York, who continued blaming legal jargon for her notorious suit.

The lawsuit had claimed the boy acted unreasonably by jumping into her arms, causing her to fall.

A jury threw out the case Tuesday in just 25 minutes.

“It heartbreaking and painful”.

“It’s incredible the power that the Internet has that something can go viral, completely out of context”, she said.

Law firm Jainchill and Beckert told NBC this week that Connell “had no choice” but to sue and this boiled down to “homeowners’ insurance” aline. They say she was never looking for money from him.

“We love each other very much”, she told Guthrie.

Sean said people didn’t know what they were talking about.

“I live in Manhattan in a third-floor walk-up so it has been very hard. I was never comfortable with that”.

However, later, it was learned that Connell was pressed to file the lawsuit in order to pay the medical bills she racked up in treating her wrist injury.

She explained on Thursday her suit was forced by a quirk of insurance law in Connecticut.

That’s what a woman says she suffered when her then 8-year-old family member knocked her to the ground in what was described in a complaint as a forceful greeting. Prior to the trial, the insurance company offered her one dollar.

Connell testified against Tarala on Friday. The boy lost his mother, Lisa Tarala, when she died past year.

A jury on Tuesday rejected Jennifer Connell’s lawsuit seeking $127,000. “She didn’t want to do this anymore than anyone else would”, the statement continues. “Her hand was forced by the insurance company”. We are disappointed in the outcome, but we understand the verdict.

That right there is the kind of keen insight about social media that only a 12-year-old can deliver. “Our client has been through enough”.

The hug happened March 18, 2011 when Connell showed up at the Taralas’ Westport home for the boy’s birthday.

Many in the media and on social media speculated that the boy would never want anything to do with the relative who took him to court, but that’s clearly not the case.

“This was meant to be a simple homeowners insurance case”, she said. At the time, Sean injured her when he jumped into her arms.

Connell also told the judge that the injury has had a massive impact on her daily life. She even took him shopping just a few weeks ago.
