NBC News: Trump-backed Senate candidate Sean Parnell suspends campaign after losing custody battle
Parnell’s estranged wife had testified about abuse she says she and occasionally their children endured from him.
The Philadelphia Inquirer writes: “Parnell, a decorated Army veteran who received a Purple Heart after serving in Afghanistan, won an August endorsement from former President Donald Trump, but his campaign quickly unraveled after a rival questioned his personal conduct and his wife, Laurie Snell, testified under oath that Parnell choked her, pinned her down and called her “a whore.””
