Part of the settlement undoubtedly included making public statements that file-sharing is wrong. Before the settlement, these are quotes from the girl and her mother:
"I got really scared. My stomach is all turning," Brianna said last night at the city Housing Authority apartment where she lives with her mom and her 9-year-old brother.
"I thought it was OK to download music because my mom paid a service fee for it. Out of all people, why did they pick me?"
"It's not like we were doing anything illegal," said Torres. "This is a 12-year-old girl, for crying out loud."
After:
"We understand now that file sharing the music was illegal," Sylvia Torres, Brianna's mother, said in a statement. "You can be sure Brianna won't be doing it anymore."
