Woman Sues 12-Year-Old Nephew for $127,000 After He Gave Her a Hug

Connell's Argument

After years of supposed suffering, Connell filed a $127,000 lawsuit against her nephew for damages that ensued after his reckless and powerful hug. The suit stated:

“The injuries, losses, and harms to the plaintiff were caused by the negligence and carelessness of the minor defendant in that a reasonable eight-year-old under those circumstances would know or should have known that a forceful greeting such as the one delivered by the defendant to the plaintiff could cause the harms and losses suffered by the plaintiff.”
