Vanessa Bryant Says She Has Been Threatened Online to Have Kobe Crash Photos Leaked

In a court filing obtained by The Washington Post, Vanessa Bryant, the wife of the late Kobe Bryant, says she has been “taunted online by people threatening to leak the photos or posting fake images of my husband’s dead body.” Her husband and daughter, Gianna, died in a January 2020 helicopter crash.

Bryant has alleged that sheriff's deputies and firefighters took unauthorized photos of the crash site and has since been involved with several legal battles related to the tragic crash. She is suing Los Angeles County for invasion of privacy.
