Vanessa Bryant settled her lawsuit on Tuesday against Los Angeles County for sharing graphic photos of the 2020 helicopter crash that killed her husband, basketball star Kobe Bryant, and their 13-year-old daughter, Gianna Bryant.
The county will pay Bryant and her three daughters $28.85 million, which includes a $15 million jury awarded in August. Bryant sued for negligence and invasion of privacy after she learned that employees of the county’s fire and sheriff’s departments had shared graphic photos of the crash victims.
The former Los Angeles Laker and his daughter, along with seven other people, were killed on Jan.
