On Monday night, a jury ruled in favor of Taylor Swift in her countersuit against David Mueller for assault and battery. The jury awarded Swift $1, the amount she sought for Mueller’s assault and battery. Douglas Baldridge, Swift’s lawyer, said that the dollar she asked for in damages is “of immeasurable value.” “It means no means no,” Baldridge said on Monday. “And it tells every woman that they will determine what is tolerated with their body.”In a statement published later Monday night, Swift thanked the judge and jury, and announced that she will be donating money to organizations that help survivors of sexual assault in court. Therefore I will be making donations in the near future to multiple organizations that help sexual assault victims defend themselves.”
