According to the Los Angeles Times, Vanessa’s lawyer shared that she will be donating the money won to the Mamba and Mambacita Sports Foundation which is “to shine a light on Kobe and Gigi’s legacy.  

Vanessa’s lawyer shared how important this lawsuit was for her. Now she hopes that so many people will learn from this moment. He says “From the beginning, Vanessa Bryant has sought only accountability. Our legal system though, does not permit her to force better policies, more training or officer discipline,” her attorney added. “Those measures are the responsibility of the sheriff’s and fire departments. Responsibilities that Mrs. Bryant’s efforts have exposed as woefully deficient, even giving amnesty to the wrongdoers. ”Mrs. Bryant’s hope is that this important civil rights case will put to a stop this abhorrent and callous behavior.”
