Antonio Lopez Chaj, a 43-year-old house painter, appears with his attorneys at a news conference in Los Angeles, on July 1, 2013. Lopez Chaj is so badly brain damaged from a beating in a bar that left him with half his skull permanently bashed in that he cannot speak. His lawyers announced he has been awarded a $58 million by a jury in Torrance Superior Court. (Photo by Nick Ut/Associated Press)
