Following the Hulk Hogan vs. Gawker Media lawsuit, the jurors for the case are now able to speak out and several of them have been doing so.
Salina Stevens, one of the jurors, discussed the case during a recent Yahoo.com interview and said viewing the tape made her believe Hogan was unaware he was being filmed and thus had his privacy violated. She said,
“When we actually viewed the video, that changed the game,” Stevens said. “I believe his privacy was violated and that’s not OK…I just feel like, if he knew he was being videotaped he would not have spoken about the things he spoke about. The conversation that was going on between him and the woman in the video, it was very human. And if you are going to be videoed, you would not be talking like that if you know.”
Following the $140 judgment for Hogan, he told Good Morning America on Wednesday morning, “I feel great. I am really happy about everything that’s happened. And, I think we made history today. We protected a lot of people from, maybe, going through what I went through. So, we are very excited, very happy.”
