Odd...Published and visual media have stated that the shooter was awarded a civil settlement for an injury.

True.

The Court turned the funds into a trust that was controlled by the lawyer in question.

Not true. the trustee was someone else. The attorney was representing the actual trustee. This person had requested to be removed from the trust (due, in part, to Strier threatening her).

The lawyer would not pay any of his medical bills.

Not true; the attorney didn't control the money.

Is there any truth to what I was told => That the trustee would not release the money for this guy to have back surgery, but was sucking it up in the form of fees? Is there an FR post with the true story?
