This is the matter:On Halloween 2006, 18-year-old Nikki Catsouras reportedly got into an argument with her father and he took away her car keys. She then took her father’s black Porsche 911 Carrera and while driving at speeds of up to 100 miles per hour, she lost control of the vehicle and smashed into a concrete tollbooth. She was killed instantly and then just a few days later, nine graphic Nikki Catsouras car crash photos were published all over the internet.
Two officers from the California Highway Patrol (CHP) had been accused of leaking the photographs on the internet. The Catsouras family has sued the CPH “for negligence, privacy invasion and infliction of emotional harm, among other charges,” but the charge was dismissed because there is no law related to the violation of the privacy rights of the dead.
Inspite of this, the Nikki Catsouras’ case may have a significant impact on the court proceedings related to Internet Privacy and defamation cases. However, one of the CHP employees who had leaked the photographs claimed that his real motive was genuine; he actually wanted to warn the young crowd about the consequences of reckless driving.
It is really disappointed how irresponsible the two CPH are. How could they regard this tragic matter as a joke? With a 18-year-old girl leaving, the parents must have gotten through a great sadness, and until now again and again the matter bring new pain to them.
