To which, many other football players have also sued due to the leagues slow move to better protect its players. You have to separate the crime from the lawsuit, as they have nothing to do with each other. It's an emotional drive that connects the two, but just because he committed horrendous crimes doesn't mean he didn't receive the injuries he did.
I hate the guy, I think he was a thug pos, but a study of his brain showed serious damage. There are 2 distinctly different issues here, of which they don't overlap.
