I could justify a ludicrous award like this under the right circumstances. Perhaps the jury was presented evidence that the company had done a background check on the mutant and knew he was a violent criminal, but hired him anyway.

Even if the company had PLANNED to kill her by burying her purposely under a mountain of old cell phones, that wouldn’t justify 7.3 BILLION.

I could justify a ludicrous award like this under the right circumstances. There are no right circumstances for unserious awards. This alone would justify a mistrial in my mind.
A Jury that frivolous cannot be relied upon to actually weigh evidence.

IIRC, to not hire a black con may now be grounds for a racial discrimination lawsuit. As Barry Goldwater once said, “extremism in the defense of Negroes is no vice”.
