Vanessa Bryant, the widow of NBA legend Kobe Bryant, has reached a settlement of nearly $30 million with Los Angeles County to resolve a lawsuit over photos taken at the scene of the 2020 helicopter crash that killed her husband. The settlement brings to an end litigation over photos taken by first responders and shared with others, and is a major victory for Vanessa Bryant and her family. It is also a reminder of the importance of respecting the privacy of those affected by tragedy.
