Attorneys for LA County have asked a federal judge to order Vanessa Bryant to produce all therapy records dating back to 2010 in an ongoing lawsuit over leaked photos of the site of the crash that killed Kobe Bryant, their daughter and 7 others.
LOS ANGELES — Attorneys for Los Angeles County have asked a federal judge to order Kobe Bryant's widow to produce all therapy records dating back to 2010 in an ongoing lawsuit over leaked photos of the site of the crash that killed the NBA legend.
“The County continues to have nothing but the deepest sympathy for the enormous grief Ms. Bryant suffered as a result of the tragic helicopter accident," county attorney Skip Miller said in a written statement."Our motion for access to her medical records, however, is a standard request in lawsuits where a plaintiff demands millions of dollars for claims of emotional distress. I have an obligation to take this step to defend the County.
The lawsuit alleges invasion of privacy, and claims that Vanessa Bryant experienced"severe emotional distress" because of the leaked photos that compounded the trauma of losing her husband and their daughter Gianna.
