A former Virginia teacher who was shot by a 6-year-old student in 2023 says she thought she died that day. Abby Zwerner testified Thursday in a $40 million lawsuit accusing a former assistant principal of ignoring warnings that the student had a gun hours before she was shot. Zwerner was shot in the hand and chest at a Newport News elementary school. She spent nearly two weeks in the hospital and required six surgeries. Zwerner testified she thought was either on her way to heaven or in heaven. She then saw two co-workers applying pressure to her wounds. Zwerner no longer works for the school district.

A North Dakota judge has ordered Greenpeace to pay damages of $345 million, reducing an earlier jury award after it found the environmental group and others liable for defamation and other claims brought by a pipeline company in connections with protests of an oil pipeline nearly a decade ago. The lawsuit in state court reaches back nearly a decade ago to protests against the Dakota Access oil pipeline. Dallas-based Energy Transfer and subsidiary Dakota Access sued Greenpeace USA, Greenpeace International and Greenpeace Fund Inc. in 2019, alleging a scheme to stop the pipeline. Earlier this year a nine-person jury sided with the pipeline company and awarded hundreds of millions of dollars in damages.
