Five men and four women made the decision based on content that the blogger posted after Megan was shot by Tory Lanez in 2020.
They also determined that the blogger encouraged her social media followers to view a sexually explicit deepfake video of Megan.
The amount awarded to Megan was originally $75,000 before U.S. District Court Judge Cecilia M. Altonaga brought it down to $59,000, NBC News is reporting.
The blogger was found guilty of “promoting an altered sexual depiction and intentional infliction of emotional distress,” per NBC.
Megan was originally seeking tens of millions in compensatory and punitive damages.
“I’m not ecstatic. Of course you want things to go your way but like I said I respect the jury and what they decided,” Milagro Gramz said afterward.
Attorney Jeremy McLymont added that they were grateful that the amount did not hit the seven digit mark, telling reporters: “We respect the jury’s verdict you always have to right? Whether we agree with it or not, we respect it. At the end of the day it was not a complete win for any side.”
At the same time, Megan Thee Stallion recently broke her silence on a new romance.
