Damn! She retiring? Hell, with how low their ratings have been she could probably buy FS1.


Edit: NVM, $28MM is from the guy who filmed her. Only $26.75MM from the hotel owners. She still has to show up for work Monday :(

Major developments today in this case. One of the executives who represents the Hotel, and who has testified at the trial, was caught watching the video with friends while eating at a Nashville restaurant. They were allegedly laughing at her, and he allegedly said that he was going to show everyone the tape since it is costing him millions.

Still unclear if the jury will hear this info though.



That executive should be fired with no golden parachute. Their whole defense depended on some sort of credible belief in their honest intention to respect guest privacy. If he can't understand how his behavior undermines that argument he's too stupid to be employed.

She looks rough lately

Article says she may not ever see any money from the guy himself

quote:

The jury divided the responsibility for paying the award ... pervert Michael Barrett must pay just over $28 mil, and the hotel is on the hook for nearly $27 million.
Erin was asking for $75 million, but this is a clear victory on her part. She may never see a penny from Barrett, but she'll be able to enforce the judgment against the hotel.
The jury deliberated for 6 hours before reaching a unanimous verdict.
After the jury was dismissed, some of the jurors hugged Erin and one asked for her autograph.


That seems bias. Find jurors who never heard of her next time. (just kidding)

I'd be surprised if she gets paid out even $1 million of that over her lifetime.

Question: doesn't this payment hurt her in the long run? This basically removes moral responsibility from the would-be viewer. Morals would hold them back from watching it.
