Kicky, correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe there are two parts to an award like this. There is the compensatory award, which pays the victims for the damage they suffered. Then the is the punitive award, which has nothing at all to do with what the victim deserves, it is a punishment sized to make sure e perpetrator has sufficient motivation to not do it again. If the perpetrator has a lot of money the punitive award is larger.
So it has nothing at all to do with wether or not she deserves 55 million.
