Maybe, if she had a house, a car, a dog and a few million to fund the lawsuits. I guess it's just her fault that she's a hapless victim and doesn't have the means to sue, so she doesn't deserve justice. At least, that seems to be the essence of the system.

    Generally lawyers take cases for post payment from the payout, if it's a good case.

    She's going to win this one.

    But the payout will come from tax payers, yhe budgets and pensions of police will be unaffected, and the facial recognition abuse will continue.
