Describing herself as “blindsided, devastated, hurt” and “betrayed” by existence of the photos, Vanessa said she filed her lawsuit against the county because she “wanted answers.”
“I live in fear every day,” she explained, adding that she never wants her kids Capri, Bianka, 5, and Natalia, 19, to ever see the pictures. “All you want to do is protect your babies.”
Elsewhere in her testimony, Vanessa accused those who took the photos of exploiting her late daughter. She claimed they took advantage of the situation by taking images of her remains because “her daddy couldn’t protect her, because he was at the morgue.”
“[I] expected them to have more compassion and respect,” she said. “My husband and my daughter deserve dignity.”
