Vanessa Bryant Suing L.A. Sheriff's Department Over Photos of Kobe Bryant's Crash

Bryant's claim seeks damages for emotional distress and mental anguish

Now, Vanessa Bryant has filed a lawsuit against the L.A. Sheriff's Department over photos being leaked by first responders at the scene of the crash. Bryant's claim seeks damages for emotional distress and mental anguish after eight members of the sheriff's department took graphic photos from the crash site on their personal phones. Vanessa's filing criticizes the department for how it handled the investigation and for not disciplining the deputies who took the photos. Vanessa Bryant does not want her surviving daughters to ever come across photos of their father and sister's remains.
