Inside the Erin Andrews trial

A jury has awarded Erin Andrews $55 million as a result of her lawsuit vs. a Nashville Marriott and a man who took and posted a video of her.

Andrews, was asking for $75 million in her civil suit vs. West End Hotel Partners, which operates the Marriott at Vanderbilt, and Michael David Barrett, who tampered with her hotel room's peephole to record a video of her while she was in her hotel room. Barrett then posted the video online in 2009.

The jury found Barrett 51 percent responsible and the hotel to be 49 percent responsible, meaning Barrett is on the hook for approximately $28 million in damages while the hotel is ordered to pay $26 million.
