A “culture of callousness” saw emergency service workers take and share pictures of Kobe Bryant’s body, a court has been told.

Photographs were taken of the basketball star – and other victims of a helicopter crash – by Los Angeles County deputies and firefighters, a lawyer for Bryant’s widow told a jury on Wednesday.
