According to the LA reporter Alene Tchekmedyian,
“When Sheriff Villanueva told Vanessa there were no survivors in Kobe’s crash, she implored him, ‘If you can’t bring my husband & baby back, please make sure no one takes photos of them.'”
Soon after, grisly photos were texted & AirDropped by deputies.
It’s devastating to see Vanessa go through so much turmoil even after losing her husband and daughter in a horrific crash. Thus one hopes the matter resolves soon.
