The case of a widow of an FDNY firefighter who worked at Ground Zero could set a legal precedent.
Jackie Kaht Fernandez is fighting for her late husband's full pension and medical benefits. FDNY Lt. Cruz Fernandez died while swimming in Florida in 2003 from 'coal miner's lung.'
The nine-time marathon runner was healthy and fit before 9/11.
Fernandez won her case in appellate court. She and attorney Chet Lukaszewski spoke with Good Day New York on Wednesday.
