Families still refuse to leave:

The stalwart seven families fighting eviction on the Fort Trumbull peninsula of New London have lost significant legal battles, but they continue to vow they will not lose their homes.

On Monday, Suzette Kelo - the named plaintiff in the nation's most notable eminent domain battle in more than half a century - and others called on Gov. M. Jodi Rell to intercede before the May 31 deadline the New London City Council has imposed on the homeowners to abandon their properties or face eviction.

It was on Hannity tonight again too Kelo still refuses to leave and says that they plan on giving her land to a realestate devoloper who is going to build another house there and sell it to someone else.
