A Bronx judge recently dismissed more than 450 lawsuits brought by people who claim they were sexually abused while in juvenile detention. Plus, Gov. Kathy Hochul is warning New Yorkers about scams targeting the state’s inflation refund checks. And finally, the price of an avocado in New York City can range from 25 cents to $3, depending on where you live.
