Vanessa Bryant took to social media to express her delight after being granted $16 million in her lawsuit against Los Angeles County. The jury made its decision on Wednesday, finding that the LAPD and fire department did circulate images of the helicopter crash that killed Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna and seven other passengers.

Vanessa believes justice has been served. “All for you! I love you! JUSTICE for Kobe and Gigi!” she wrote on Instagram on Wednesday following the verdict. She captioned a picture of herself with her late husband and daughter with a touching message.

Vanessa’s co-plaintiff, Chris Chester, was also granted $15 million by the jury. Chester’s wife Sarah and 13-year-old daughter Payton were also killed in the crash. The jury unanimously agreed that the LA county invaded their privacy and caused them mental distress by circulating the crash photos of their loved ones.

Ironically, the final verdict was reached on August 24, which is celebrated as Kobe Bryant Day.

Vanessa tearfully testified during the emotional trial; however, remained strong so that she could bring justice to Kobe and Gianna.
