Swift Seeks Justice 

 

After hearing evidence for several days, the jury took only four hours to find in favor of Taylor Swift and award her everything she was asking for - $1. Taylor Swift was only seeking $1 as damages against the DJ who grabbed her inappropriately during a meet and greet. 

The DJ had initially brought the suit against Swift, and rather than simply defend herself from his allegations, Taylor Swift claimed that he had harmed her by grabbing her. 

Her suit seeking $1 was only to show that men can't simply grab women without repercussion; that there is a price to pay. Swift's suit for $1 was to prove a point and to avoid any allegations that she was doing this for money. 

Her victory was not simply a victory for her, but for all women who have been the victim of similar actions.
