YouTube Description
as posted by the channelA former JP Morgan analyst was awarded a $35 million verdict after the glass door of a Manhattan building suddenly shattered on her nearly a decade ago, leaving her with permanent brain damage, The Post has learned.
The ruling in favor of Meghan Brown, 36, followed a three-week trial in which jurors were shown shocking surveillance footage of the moment the seven-and-a-half foot-tall lobby door seemingly exploded as she was walking through it while leaving a physical therapy appointment in 2015.
“I do remember seeing glass, like, everywhere, in the lobby, near me,” Brown told jurors in Manhattan Supreme Court.
The harrowing incident at 271 Madison Avenue caused a traumatic brain injury to the then-27-year-old, leading to the demise of her promising career in investment banking.
