Pelinka stated that he had witnessed Vanessa experience panic attacks several times over “numerous instances” because of the unauthorized photos. While Rob noted that Vanessa—who is also mom to kids Natalia, 19, Bianka5. Capri, 3—is “always very mindful of being strong and courageous in front of her daughters,” he said that Vanessa is wracked with grief and anxiety behind closed doors.
 
Vanessa’s trial comes a little less than two years after she filed her lawsuit against L.A. County officials. CelebHomes News received the complaint at that time. Vanessa claimed that several deputies took photographs of remains at the site of the crash and then forwarded the images to colleagues. The surveillance video showed one of them showing his smartphone to a bartender.
