1. Wow. A story about rich people getting millions of dollars. Fascinating.

2. We are the ones paying.

3. This is the death of free speech! BAR despotism and corrupt tyranny have eroded all individual rights.
   This verdict steals from the needy in California. No one should approve of this massive profiteering!

4. Just saying some people are just too greedy they have to have more money. When I have the poor people out here going hungry everyday.

5. Damn shame that tax payers have to pay this. Because of stupidity by a few. These deputies should foot part of the bill taken for retirement benefits.

6. No expectation of privacy in public. This is ridiculous theater. The "daughter" is a boy.

7. Don't celebrities give up the right to privacy in public – hence the paparazzi? If the crash had been in an accessable, site would she be suing the hundreds of photographers who would have quickly posted vids to Utube? "Much ado about nothing"

8. This isn't just effed up, this is straight up greedy…

9. Good for her! Unethical cops and after they have those rude behaviors they go home to call it a honest days work.

10. Hopefully after this big payout police will not do this anymore

11. 16M for your deceased daughter and husband

    Huh

12. Vanessa Bryant's lawsuit requested "unspecified damages". When Los Angeles County requested settlement negotiations, plaintiff attorney repeatedly refused – demanding the court proceed to trial so that all decisions would be left to the jury. However, in closing argument the plaintiff attorneys presented a specific formula and calculated a specific dollar amount request from this jury. And they specified a minimum amount for any damage award to guide the jury if it was feeling thrifty.
    The taxpayers of Los Angeles County should sue the Federal judge in the case to give his salary back – he didn't manage the trial, he watched it from the visitor gallery like everyone else.

13. SashaXXX 👽 wants all that belongs to her now 👽👽

14. Misuse of unauthorized use of power authority can hurt other people and must have consequences

15. big win for gold digger

16. I’m pretty sure this wasn’t about the money…it was hopefully the other kids would never see the photos

18. I wonder if Vanessa gave any thought to how many programs will get cut now, programs that were intended to help the people of Los Angeles County, but now the funding will be gone, because the money will be going into her bank account instead. Do you think Kobe would approve?

19. Suing people is a business model in the US. If I'd lived in the US, I would hope something mildly bad happens to me so I'd be rich.

20. Photos leaked by these irresponsible and immature govt. officials and law enforcement need to learn the hard way…'YOU'RE FIRE' and they should share some of the cost of the 16millions instead of tax payers‼️

21. So the taxpayers are paying for this. That'll teach those officers not to share photos!

22. The taxes will come from us. No way those employees have that kinda money. KOBE Bryant wife already has so much money left from Kobe. I hope she uses this 16M for something good. Because she sure doesn't need that much money. It's insane the wealth distribution in our capitalistic nation.

23. It's so weird to me that no one has brought up that Kobe has twin boys with his mistress. The lady doesn't like drama so that's probably why but Vanessa knows about the twins. Some of Kobes money should go to his twin sons.

24. Nothing but greed.

25. They should have zoomed into the upper upper midway point of those white dresspants

26. Time to buy another ring.

27. They are already rich and the guy who crashed is dead to so what exactly are they getting money for

28. That's bullshit. Kobe killed everybody on the helicopter he is a murderer. They told them not to fly the helicopter but he did it anyways. Weather was not good to fly and he did it anyways

29. Why don’t they disclose who showed the photos at the bar and fire his butt?

30. How's this $16 million being worked out ? Doesn't she have enough money already ? Giving it all to charity to benefit the poor and the needy.

31. Rest in power G ! Thank you for everything Kob

32. they should have been fired rather than give her 16 million out of our tax money

33. $16 million of tax payers money.
