This week, Vanessa Bryant’s lawyers filed an amended complaint in federal court that added the four deputies and the L.A. County Fire Department to her civil rights suit against the county, and the Sheriff’s Department. According to the Los Angeles Times, it seeks damages for negligence and invasion of privacy, alleging deputies and firefighters took and shared photos of the children, parents, and coaches who all died in the horrific Jan. 26, 2020, crash.

Vanessa even took to social media this Saturday to say, “Kobe’s name was released when he was accused in 2003. Why should sheriff’s get away with hiding? #doublestandard.” However, county lawyers want to keep the deputies’ names under seal, arguing that making them public would make the deputies’ addresses and other personal information only a click away on the internet and that hackers could target them.

Aside from this, Vanessa also clapped back at Evan Rachel Wood and film producer Abigail Disney on social media today after they called her late husband a rapist. Check out what she had to say below:

Vanessa Bryant’s Mom Responds To Extortion Claims: ‘Why Would She Do This To Her Own Mother?’

Vanessa Bryant’s Mom Responds To Extortion Claims: ‘Why Would She Do This To Her Own Mother?’

Vanessa Bryant addressed her mother’s “unimaginably hurtful” lawsuit in a statement on Thursday. Vanessa said her mom, Sofia Laine, is trying to “extort a financial windfall from our family” nearly a year after the tragic death of her husband Kobe and daughter Gianna Bryant.

As we previously reported, Sofia, 68, is suing Vanessa, 38, for financial support, claiming she worked unpaid as a “longtime personal assistant and nanny” for the family, according to documents obtained by PEOPLE Magazine. Sofia claims in the lawsuit that before Kobe’s death, he “promised to take care of” her “for the rest of her life.” Vanessa explained in her IG Story statement post that “I have supported her for nearly 20 years, and she was never my or Kobe’s personal assistant, nor was she a nanny,” Vanessa began. “I have always been a stay-at-home mother and my husband and I were our daughters’ full-time caregivers.” Vanessa says her mom’s claims are “obviously false” and insists she repeatedly tried to “work things out with my mother.” She added, “this lawsuit is frivolous, disgraceful, and unimaginably hurtful. My husband never promised my mother anything, and he would be so disappointed in her behavior and lack of empathy.”

Vanessa Bryant’s mother has responded to her daughter’s statement saying it’s Vanessa who is lying and she has “proof.” “For starters, I would like to state that I do not enjoy airing our family grievances in the public,” Sofia Laine said in a Friday statement, according to TMZ. “Although I filed a lawsuit, I did not make any public comments and was hoping for the court process to run its course without the publicity, as hurtful as it is. I did not want this and do not want this.”

She continued, “All I wanted is what I worked for. Vanessa, despite everything that I have been promised and done for her and the family, has attempted to sever all ties and renege on all obligations and agreements. Why would she do this to her own mother? I am so disappointed, hurt, and wronged to the point that I had no choice but to file a lawsuit.”

Before concluding she noted, “I am nearly 70 years old, my health is deteriorating, and my own daughter is doing this to me?” She also claims she WAS the family nanny for nearly 20 years noting, “[Vanessa] drafted and enforced an extremely strict schedule for the round the clock care of my grandchildren. It is simply ridiculous that she would deny this.”

According to TMZ, the complaint in Los Angeles County Superior Court against Island Express Helicopters and Island Express Holding Corp. alleges that pilot Ara Zobayan, who also died in the crash, failed “to use ordinary care in piloting the subject aircraft” and was “negligent.”

“Defendant Island Express Helicopters’ breach of its duty and negligence caused the injuries and damages complained of herein and Plaintiffs’ deceased, Kobe Bryant, was killed as a direct result of the negligent conduct of Zobayan for which Defendant Island Express Helicopters is vicariously liable in all respects,” the lawsuit said.

Not only does the suit state that the pilot failed to properly monitor and assess the weather prior to takeoff, failed to obtain proper weather data prior to the flight, failed to abort the flight when he knew of the cloudy condition, failed to maintain control of the helicopter, but it also says that Island Express engaged in unnecessary and needlessly risky means of transportation under the circumstances, TMZ reports.

In addition to that, the lawsuit also says the pilot, Ara George Zobayan, was disciplined in 2015 for violating the visual flight rule minimums by flying into airspace of reduced visibility.

The amount she’s suing for hasn’t been shared. However, Vanessa is asking for punitive damages, claiming the pilot and Island Express were reckless, and the damages could be untold millions.
