The lawyer, Frederick P. Hafetz, continued to chip away at the credibility of the 39-year-old witness in the trial of her mother, former state Supreme Court Justice Hortense Gabel; Miss Myerson and Miss Myerson's lover, Carl "Andy" Capasso.
Newly born Hurricane Gustav spun toward the northeastern Caribbean with 80 mph winds Sunday, tailed by Tropical Storm Hortense in the mid-Atlantic about a thousand miles to the east.
