I'm pretty sure a movie too. You know this is one of those cases where I don't mind people receiving cash for their stories. She suffered enough now is time for her to start enjoying a little and if money can provide that then why not.

I believe a lot of mistakes were made in this case. I do not know what would have happened if she was found earlier or not. We can always look back and say we should have done this or that and she would be saved earlier. I just hope that they learn from the mistakes of the past to better help others in the future. This is why you look back at things. To learn and grow to make the system work better.
The $20 million was calculated with estimates on earnings, housing requirements, schooling and for counselling for her and her children. The money will be invested properly to ensure that it continues to produce earnings throughout her life. Even at a poor 1% return on investment, that is still $200k per year.
No sum of money can make up truly for what she lost, but she has to choice to work or not to work with this settlement. I think it is fair for a very unfair situation.

Vincenzo I still think she got too little however I think after all the things she went through she is just grateful for anything that can help her and her kids. So sad.
