This is a lawsuit that lasted nearly two years.

In January 2020, NBA legendary star Kobe and daughter Ji Anna died in a helicopter crash accident. Shortly after the accident, photos of Kobe's body flowed out. Los Angeles County Sheriff Alex Villanewa acknowledged that at least 8 police officers took or shared graphic photos at the crash scene, and he had ordered the police officers to delete these photos. He added that police officers may face investigation and discipline.

It is reported that some people passed the photos to others when playing video games, and some showed these photos to the bartender of the bar.

In September of the same year, Vanessa and the family members of another crash fought on the grounds of emotional distress and filed a lawsuit out of the photos. The lawsuit stated that the Los Angeles County Police Station did not conduct standard investigations. They did not check how many mobile phones were taken in violation of regulations, and they did not track whether these photos were transmitted or stored on the Internet.

Although the Los Angeles County claims that each photo has been destroyed, the family members of the deceased said that living in the control film may surface in fear.

On September 28 of the same year, Governor Gavin Newer, Governor of California signed a bill, stipulating that the photo or corpse anatomy of the corpse or body of the crime scene is illegal. A fine of $ 1,000. Earlier, California emergency personnel were not prohibited from sharing these photos.

On August 10, 2022, the case was officially opened at the trial scene, and Vaina cried many times.

After reading the verdict, Vanisa immediately hugged her lawyer and daughter Natalia. She left the court without a statement.

Subsequently, Vanisa posted photos of her with Kobe and Daughter Ji Anna on Instagram, and wrote the text: "Everything is for you! I love you! For Kobe and Jiji, justice!"
