Vanessa Bryant testified Friday she experiences panic and anxiety attacks ever since she found out Los Angeles County sheriff's deputies took and shared photos of the helicopter crash site where her husband, Kobe Bryant; her daughter, Gianna Bryant; and seven others died on Jan. 26, 2020.
"They violated her, taking advantage of the fact that her daddy couldn't protect her," she testified, according to The Los Angeles Times. "He was at the morgue.
"I don't think anybody should ever see their family members in that way."
Vanessa Bryant, who is suing the county for invasion of privacy and emotional distress, also described how she initially heard the report that the photos existed and had been shared while she was with her two small children a month after the crash in February.
