Deanne McDonald must repay the money she got for agreeing to remain tight-lipped about the actor Adam Sandler.

A court has ordered Deanne McDonald who was hired as a nanny in 2009 to pay back $80,000 in damages after she accused him of treating her like a slave. Sandler then paid McDonald $48,000, as well as a further $29,000 to her attorneys to make the matter go away and she signed a confidentiality agreement.

However despite agreeing not to speak about the matter, last year she changed her mind and tried to file a lawsuit. But an arbitrator quickly ruled she was in violation of the confidentiality agreement by repudiating it, disclosing confidential information and threatening to sue and an appeal’s court told her to pay back the $80,000 Sandler had paid to keep her quiet.

The US Justice System is broken!  We can refer to race, but also we must take into account the differences between the RICH and POOR.

  • The arrest rate of African American youth is nearly two times that of white youth.  African American youth are 1.4 times more likely to be detained than white youth arrested for the same crimes, and are twice as likely to be transferred to adult court.
  • African American youth are 10 times more likely than their white peers to be sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.  This is just one example of disparities in sentencing.  African Americans of all ages are given sentences twice as long as whites.
  • African Americans make up more than half (56.1%) of youth sentenced to life without parole.  This is almost identical to the disparity seen among the overall population sentenced to life without parole, where 56.4% are African American.
