Nikki Catsouras Crime Scene Photos
Nikki Catsouras has long been dead from a horrible accident that happened in 2006, but because of two CHP dispatchers, who leaked her crime scene photos, the photos have gone around thousands of websites and blogs and the Catsouras family couldn’t do anything to remove them from the internet. Now, Nikki's family is suing CHP for $20 million dollars.
The story:
18-year-old Nikki Catsouras was killed in a car crash. A few days later, Catsouras' teenage cousin - answering a text message - flipped open her cellphone and was confronted with a picture of the mortally wounded Nikki, who suffered massive head trauma and lost most of her face and head, at the scene.
While Catsouras was still being mourned, more pictures from the scene were anonymously posted on the dead girl's formerly benign MySpace page, and they are now - without the family's consent, which is not needed - being used in at least one criminal-law class at a local community college. (Police admitted on Tuesday that an officer leaked the pictures; the family has filed a $20 million lawsuit.)
"It's evil," says Lesli Catsouras, Nikki's mother. "It's evil, and this was done maliciously, as a joke, and it has devastated our lives completely. People should know that this can happen to them."
This is very sad and indeed can happen to anybody.
