Hello those reading along on the UTUBE trailer that caused all the riots
and deaths.... something received;
By ANTHONY McCARTNEY AP Entertainment Writer
LOS ANGELES September 19, 2012 (AP)
An actress who appears in the anti-Muslim film trailer
that has been blamed for causing riots in the Middle East
wants a judge to order YouTube to take down the clip.
Attorneys for Cindy Lee Garcia plan to seek the injunction
Thursday against the 14-minute YouTube trailer for
"Innocence of Muslims" in a Los Angeles court.
On Wednesday Garcia filed a lawsuit against the filmmaker
for fraud and slander, claiming she was duped by
Nakoula Basseley Nakoula, the man behind "Innocence of Muslims"
who has gone into hiding since the trailer rose to prominence
last week.
She said she was unaware of the film's anti-Muslim content
and the pages of the script she received had no mention of
the prophet Muhammad, religion or sexual content,
according to her complaint.
YouTube has refused Garcia's requests to remove the film,
according to the lawsuit. The complaint contends that keeping
it online violates her right of publicity, invades her
privacy rights and the post-filming dialogue changes cast
her in a false light.
"(Garcia) had a legally protected interest in her privacy
and the right to be free from having hateful words put
in her mouth or being depicted as a bigot,"
the lawsuit states.
The Bakersfield Californian/Zuma PressActress Cindy Lee Garcia
talks about the script that she read and performed in contrast
to the video published on YouTube in Bakersfield.
YouTube said it is reviewing the complaint and its lawyers will
be in court on Thursday.
The site is owned by search giant Google and has blocked users
in Saudi Arabia, Libya and Egypt from viewing the
"Innocence of Muslims" trailer. It has also blocked the video
from being viewed in Indonesia and India because it violates
laws in those countries.
The lawsuit states Garcia responded to an ad and thought she
was appearing in an ancient Egyptian adventure film called
"Desert Warriors." Dialogue in the amateurish film was
later dubbed to include anti-Islamic messages and to portray
Muhammad as a fraud, a womanizer and a child molester,
and it was also translated into Arabic.
"The film is vile and reprehensible," Garcia's attorney,
M. Cris Armenta, wrote in the document.
Her client has received death threats since the film's trailer
began drawing attention, and she is no longer able to care for
her grandchildren, the lawsuit states.
"This lawsuit is not an attack on the First Amendment nor on
the right of Americans to say what they think, but does request
that the offending content be removed from the Internet,"
the complaint states.
Garcia, who lives in Bakersfield, Calif., claims her association
with the film has harmed her reputation and caused "shame,
mortification, and hurt feelings" and will impact her ability to
get future acting roles, according to the lawsuit.
A man who answered the phone at the law offices of Steven Seiden,
who represents Nakoula on any criminal repercussions he may face,
declined comment. He said Seiden does not represent Nakoula,
who is on probation for a bank fraud case in which he opened
600 fraudulent credit accounts, in civil matters.
According to the terms of his probation, Nakoula was allowed to
only access websites with the permission of probation officials
and for work purposes. It is unclear who uploaded the film
to the site.
The lawsuit also names Sam Bacile, an alias that Nakoula gave
to The Associated Press after the trailer was linked to protests
that have since killed at least 30 people in seven countries,
including the U.S. ambassador to Libya.
