According to lawyers representing the woman, Jackson is currently out of state and has not been extradited for further prosecution.
Lead Attorney Bradford J. Gilde, of Gilde Law Firm, PLLC, said in a statement: “We are grateful that the jury took a strong stand against the defendant’s abhorrent behavior and against image-based sexual assault.
‘Although a judgment in this case will probably not be recovered, the compensation judgment gives DL her good name back.
The sentencing is also the jury’s plea to raise awareness of this technology-fueled national epidemic.
“We will forever admire DL’s courage to fight back. We hope the staggering amount of this verdict sends a message of deterrence and deters others from engaging in this despicable activity.”
