Gabby Petito’s family gets $3M in lawsuit

The family of Gabby Petito, the 22-year-old found dead last year in Wyoming, was awarded $3 million in a wrongful death lawsuit against the estate of her fiancé, Brian Laundrie, who died by suicide. A federal judge in California will announce the sentence today of Elizabeth Holmes, the founder of the failed blood testing start-up Theranos. And the man charged with killing 10 people at a Buffalo supermarket is expected to plead guilty to all 25 state counts next week.

"It is better than we expected, absolutely," said Sue Abderholden, the executive director of the National Alliance on Mental Illness in Minnesota. "You get worried – if you're gonna have an extra 1,000 calls is our rate going to go down or are we going to be able to meet the need? And I really applaud the call centers because they were really able to ramp up and basically meet that need."
