Gloria Allred Ready To Convict Hilary Swank For Not Being Compassionate Enough
Posted on Thu Oct 14, 2010 03:11 PM PDT
Attorney Gloria Allred always has to give her two cents on everything!
Hilary Swank is promoting her new film Conviction - here she is outside Letterman in NYC - a true story about Betty Anne Waters, who worked years becoming a lawyer to free her wrongfully accused brother Kenneth from prison.
So why does Allred have some "particularly strong words" for the actress herself? Because Swank, who's also an executive producer on the film, never consulted with the actual murder victim's (Katharina Brow) children.
Gloria Allred says: "The murder victim's children feel that no proper respect or compassion has been shown by Ms. Swank for the murder victim and her family."
In a press conference today, Allred and the kids say they want a sit-down with the actress. Le sigh.
Conviction opens tomorrow; will this stop you from seeing the critically acclaimed film?
Not at all!

Sounds like Gloria Allred and the family just want a hand out. I don't doubt that this family has had a terrible time having to deal with the murder, however, I have a very hard time believing that no one was contacted in the 10 years that this film was in production. Out of respect, perhaps they should have met with this family(if it is true that they infact didn't) but they don't need the families consent to proceed with the film. This isn't about the murdered woman, it's about a remarkable woman, a sister who loves and believes in the truth of her brothers innocence. This family needs to foucus on the real matter(not their 15 minutes of fame), and that's finding the real killer.
This family, along with Gloria Allred are jokes.
Gloria Allred just needs to stop it. She is a joke.
Only time Gloria was right.. Hillary is a nasty, selfish ..itch.
Gloria is still looking for her fifteen minutes and she can't count.
Who cares? Hillary is AMAZING! Boys Don't Cry, Million Dollar Baby, etc. she is one of the best actresses of our time and she can do no wrong in my eyes.
