Jury Awards Erin Andrews $55 Million

The jury in the Erin Andrews peephole case awarded the sportscaster $55 million dollars.

Andrews won a $55 million judgment against a stalker and the owner of a Nashville hotel where he recorded secret nude videos of her.

The judgment, announced by a jury in the late afternoon, is less than the $75 million Andrews sought from the owner and operator of the Nashville Marriott and the stalker, Michael David Barrett, who has already served a prison sentence.

The jury deliberated for less than eight hours, splitting the blame — and damages — roughly equally between Barrett, who will have to pay about $28 million, and the two companies, which are on the hook for about $26 million.

It is doubtful that Andrews will ever collect near the $55 million, but she should end up with millions in the end..
