‘Innocence of Muslims’ Actress Loses Another Legal Bid to Get Anti-Islam Film Pulled

A California federal judge on Friday denied another request from one of the actresses in the anti-Islam film “Innocence of Muslims” to have the film’s trailer removed from YouTube.

Cindy Lee Garcia lost a similar legal challenge in September. Her attorney told Reuters she plans to appeal the latest decision.

Garcia has said she was duped by the man behind the film, Mark Bassely Youssef, about what the final product would look like. The 14-minute clip for β€œInnocence of Muslims” posted online depicts the Prophet Muhammad as an adulterer and murder and was blamed in part for igniting violent mob protests throughout the Arab world.

Garcia said the project she participated in made no references to Muhammad or to Islam and that her voice was dubbed over after filming. She has claimed she received death threats for her participation in the film and has accused Youssef of fraud and slander.

Her federal lawsuit included claims of copyright infringement, asserting she has a copyright claim over her performance. According to Reuters, the judge said even if she could prove a legitimate copyright interest, she would have essentially relinquished it to the filmmakers.

U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice’s initial references to “Innocence of Muslims” as the reason for the terror assault on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya have been central in an ongoing effort to determine the truth behind the attack that killed four Americans.

    Worked and did business around Hollyweird people for 30 years and they’re too stupid when it comes to what happens after the casting couch.

      This story is almost like a bad re-occurring dream that is so stupid that it would be funny if not for the people who were killed for no reason except for the complete stupidity of the Muslim world. Personally I could not worship a god that had little or no respect for life. I think that Satan may have a higher score then the Islamic world on this. In either case the bottom line is both are bad and this song was written to them called
      β€œThe Devils Song” http://www.reverbnation.com/play_now/song_10789987
      It puts into perspective why these people think the way they do.

    She is upset for nothing. Obama lied as usual. Very few muslims saw this rat-trap film and it was not the cause of the deaths at the embassy. Those people died because obama let them die rather than help them.

    don’t you imagine that every person involved in that movie has been

    checked out from ******* to appetite by the gov’t – note she was in a movie

    what was put on You Tube was just a 14 min manufactured ‘trailer’

    using the most disagreeable portions to INSITE riots – who used “THE VIDEO”

    as an excuse for WHY things happened like they did in the Middle East ,,,

      Agree. Something very odd about this entire set-up. Also the so-called investigation disappeared as fast as the guy supposedly involved. (This was handled even faster than that Russian spy ring case back in 2009. One spy Russian guy was a prof at CUNY using an alias . Nice , huh ? A Russian spy teaching in an American university ! Shades of Obama ) Has a distinct Russian mysterious government squelching to it. Another one of those Trial By Media events we have come to know under the Obama Administration.

      The voice for Luke’s Aunt in Star Wars was dubbed over as well.. this happens. Your performance in a film is the copyright of the producer, unless you are also the producer.

      KICK: Agree. People always need to protect themselves when they get involved in any project. A contract would have been a much better deal, but at least a script would prove something. ( This entire case needs investigation but have a feeling that Obama Administration would NOT want that to happen…something stinks here. )

      She never saw the movie, “Singing in the Rain”. That’s probably why it was dubbed over.

People who make their women walk around in blankets, covered from head to toe. Na, nothing fishy going on here. I once met a muslim man on the street in Berlin, who I had known and worked with for years, and his wife stopped 6 feet behind him as we spoke.
