CSI: Crime Scene Ivestigation Gets Sued For Getting PERSONAL
This one is pretty funny. One of the writer’s for CSI: Crime Scene Investigation has gotten into some hot water and is taking CBS for a bumpy ride. This writer got personal with her writing skills and used a real life story for an episode to get back at some peeps that screwed her over in a real estate deal.
According to the suit, filed moments ago in L.A. County Superior Court, Scott and Melinda Tamkin claim “CSI” writer Sarah Goldfinger sought revenge against them by allegedly using their names and likenesses to craft a recent episode of “CSI.”
Here’s the rub — the Tamkins claim their fictional counterparts “engaged in a reckless lifestyle of sexual bondage, pornography, drunkeness, marital discord, depression, financial straights and possibly even murder.”
The Tamkins claim CBS acknowledged the problem and changed the names “at the eleventh hour,” but because the first names matched, and the original last names had already made it to the Internet — the damage was already done.
Sounds like these people are real ‘winners’ and now that the dirty laundry is out for the world to see, they are pissed. Lesson here: don’t mess with people in showbiz, they will get the last laugh! I highly doubt they will get the $6 million that they are suing for. Give me a break!
