The victim would still be dead. And there are not that many murders who even have $12M. This whole thread is so ridiculous...
Pay $12m in litigation to prove in litigation why your business thing is fine and legal
Pay $12m to off whoever's the driving force behind your harassment preventing them from doing it to the next guy who's pockets might not be deep enough to fend it off.
It's the pro-social thing to do really.
