I don’t believe this was an insurable claim like someone getting injured on school property. By definition, defamation and slander are willful acts that don’t involve mishaps, negligence, etc. And even if compensatory damages in a case are insurable, punitive damages are not.

There WAS an insurance company involved in these proceedings on behalf of the school, but that was only because the school was required to post an appeal bond after the original judgement was handed down. As I understand it, the bond process involves a major financial company putting aside the cash to cover the amount of the award after determining that the school had sufficient assets (real estate, endowment, etc.) to cover the full amount.

One small win in a wave of crime throughout America where the businesses shut down as the police ignores cries for help.

If this one business was due over $30m, how much more to the thousands of businesses looted and burned to the ground over absolute lies like “hands up, don’t shoot”?

The owners of this store had passed away during the long delay for Justice.

It is a win but likely won’t stop the wave of liberal communist insanity destroying the country.
