Chunks of ice, you could actually see them floating down residential streets. Some of the residents had to be helped out of their homes and many furnishings. Complete loss for these folks. Thats got to make it even worse when you have the snow pitch mixed with all of the flooding. So back here in new york city, life is getting back to normal after the citys second biggest snowfall in history. Pretty much most mass transit is up and running. Major streets are cleared. But all that snow is piled high, making it so difficult to get around. Yeah, lets get a live update from abcs ray raimundi. Ray, good morning. Reporter hey, good morning to you, kendis and reena.

It was the second snowiest snowstorm here in the city. We were 0. 1 inch from breaking the alltime record.

He was later exonerated by dna evidence. Were now at the avery family i recently went to wisconsin to investigate the case. I met the former prosecutor who sent avery to prison, ken kratz, who now says hes being bombarded by online threats. Just examples upon examples of what i would refer to as cyberbullying.
