Attorneys Siannah Boutté and Thomas Conroy of Simon Law Group secured a $41.6 million verdict for a disturbing case where Canadian graphic novelist defendant tortured and murdered his fiancée Diana Kasian. The gruesome torture methods that he used on the mother of his child were based on a graphic novel that he had already written. The defense withdrew from this case, which meant that the plaintiff attorneys had to clearly illustrate the magnitude of horrific damages that occurred to Diana Kasian. The total verdict following a two week bench trial was $41.6 million, with $10 million in punitive damages assigned against the defendant.

The Simon Law Group utilized MotionLit’s Video and Trial Technician Support team to assist with demonstrative graphics, courtroom technology, and visual presentations during the trial. Displaying the brutal crime scene images on a big-screen TV during questioning helped the jury to understand how much pain and torture Kasian had experienced before her death. Bringing MotionLit’s cutting-edge video technology and trial tech services to this case was a crucial factor in this substantial verdict.
