Sharon Love, the administrator of her daughter's estate, has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against George Huguely, who was convicted of second-degree murder in the 2010 killing of Yeardley Love, his on-again, off-again girlfriend. Huguely, who also played lacrosse at UVA, took the stand Wednesday in his only day inside the Charlottesville courtroom.
