RIVERHEAD - A jury in State Supreme Court in Suffolk County awarded a record $80 million last week to the family of a twin girl who was born 10 weeks premature and suffers from cerebral palsy. The family charged doctors with faulty prenatal care. The award is the highest ever recorded in the county, according to the New York Jury Verdict Reporter, an East Islip-based research and publishing company that tracks about 80 percent of the awards in the state. It surpassed the $10.7 million awarded in a 1999 personal injury case
