Family Wants Photos of Chimp Victim Sealed

Attorneys for a Connecticut woman mauled by a chimpanzee are asking a judge to seal photos of the victim and her medical records from the public.
    
Nash's right to privacy overrides the public's right to see the photos, said Matt Newman, an attorney for the conservator of Charla Nash . The photos and records will be evidence in Nash's $50 million lawsuit against chimp owner Sandra Herold.
    
Herold's attorneys did not object to the request, and Stamford Superior Court Judge Edward R. Karazin, Jr. scheduled an April 27 hearing to discuss the request.
    
Doctors at Ohio's Cleveland Clinic say Nash lost her hands, nose, lips and eyelids in the Feb. 16 attack. She will be blind for life and faces two years of surgical procedures.
    
The 200-pound chimp, named Travis, was shot and killed by police.
