Jurors had awarded $2.5 million for future pain and suffering, and $1.5 million for past emotional distress.
A judge has denied the city of Los Angeles a new trial in a lawsuit in which a jury in 2022 awarded a police captain $4 million over the internal distribution of a topless photo that was falsely purported to be her.
Jurors deliberated for about a day before reaching their verdict on Sept. 30. The panel awarded Carranza $2.5 million for her future pain and suffering and $1.5 million for her past emotional distress. The city’s attorneys further maintained that their post-trial investigation of the verdict shows it was influenced by alleged jury misconduct.
“When I attempted to discuss that this was not in the evidence, he engaged in name-calling by saying I was naive on how much the photograph was passed around,” the one juror said.
