Brainerd Woman Music Re-Trial

A Brainerd woman gets another day in court today on charges of illegally sharing copyrighted music. Jammie Thomas-Rasset was ordered to pay more than $200 thousand in 2007. However, the judge says he gave the jury the wrong instructions and ordered a new trial, which began Monday in Minneapolis.

Thomas-Rasset is accused of sharing 24 tunes on the KAZAA network, although industry lawyers claim the number is more like 1,700.

Defense attorney Kiwi Camara says the record companies can't prove that the Brainerd woman shared any songs. Thomas-Rasset is expected on the stand today.
