[Perianne]

She was recorded nude in her hotel room. Millions of people have viewed the videos.




A Nashville jury on Monday awarded television broadcaster Erin Andrews $55 million, to be paid by her stalker, a Nashville hotel's management group and its owner.


The jury of seven women and five men deliberated for seven hours after the nine-day negligence trial. Andrews filed the lawsuit about six years ago against Michael David Barrett, a man who secretly recorded her through an altered peephole in her room at Nashville Marriott at Vanderbilt University in September 2008, and the hotel owner and operator.


The guy who actually recorded her and posted the videos online served 20 months in prison.

The jury showered her with money. Of which she will get very little after settlements.

And is also 51% at fault.


Andrews filed the lawsuit about six years ago against Michael David Barrett, a man who secretly recorded her through an altered peephole in her room at Nashville Marriott at Vanderbilt University in September 2008, and the hotel owner and operator.She also sued Marriott International, but Circuit Judge Hamilton Gayden dismissed claims against the hotel giant in late January, saying that, among other reasons, the franchisor was not responsible for security at a local hotel.
Jurors found Barrett 51 percent at fault in the case, which would mean he would have to pay 51 percent of the $55 million award. The jury said the hotel owner, West End Hotel Partners, and the hotel management company, Windsor Capital Group, also were at fault and were on the hook for the remaining 49 percent.

Idiots who acknowledge negligence and damages apparently.
