Virginia woman awarded $1.5 million after TBI
The Augusta County Circuit Court of Virginia has awarded Vickie Johnson-Rankin $1.5 million. Johnson-Rankin and her family were hit head-on by a drunk driver. She lost her job due to the traumatic brain injury she suffered in the accident. The jury deliberated for two hours before the award. All too often victims of such crimes are unable to access the necessary care and seek recourse because of their injury. Vickie Johnson-Rankin’s jury award is the exception rather than the rule.
