question

A 15-year-old boy was killed during a gang fight. Two days after his funeral, the boy's mother saw a television program about gang violence and was shocked to see video of herself weeping over the boy's body. The video had been shot by the television reporting team while the boy's body was still lying on a public street. The mother suffered severe emotional distress as a result of seeing the video. If the mother sues the television station for invasion of her privacy and that of her son, will the mother be likely to prevail?

choices

  1. No, because a person has no right to privacy after his or her death.
  2. No, because the street was open to the public and the subject was newsworthy.
  3. Yes, because the mother did not give permission to have the video used in the program.
  4. Yes, because the mother suffered severe emotional distress as a result of viewing the video.
