Pierce Brosnan Joins Growing List of Celebs Sued By Paparazzi

Posted by Eriq Gardner

Brosnan Pierce Brosnan is being sued for assault, battery and negligence after allegedly shoving a freelance photographer. The suit was filed on Monday in Los Angeles Superior Court by Robert Rosen.

Public figures have for years pushed for new laws and criminal investigations against picture-hungry photographers. But with the recent explosion of celebrity-focused magazines and Web sites, there has been an uptick in claims brought by the photographers against their subjects. Among the celebrities recently sued for revengeful acts are Bruce Willis, Woody Harrelson, Denise Richards and Pamela Lee Anderson.

Pierce Brosnan is real James Bond

Pierce Brosnan is good,The photographer something would make,That bothered the Pierce Brosnan.

Surely Pierce Brosnan and his wife have seen the story about Carol Plants and her belief - one that appears to be true - that she is Pierce Brosnan’s sister? Her story was seen in numerous media, and televised on Inside Edition. Carol came to Los Angels/Malibu looking for answers. A letter in her mother's Bible at her death stated that her father was not the man who raised her, but Thomas Brosnan. She approached individuals close to Mr. Brosnan - only to have the door literally slammed in her face – ultimately leading to her homelessness. It is ironic a man who claims to be such a family man, a wife who touts her own charitable efforts, have failed to come forward. If family is important to Mr. Brosnan, why not come forward? I challenge humanity starts at home. IF Mr. Brosnan and his wife are the great humanitarians portrayed to be, they should have no problem coming forward. He, himself, has nothing to lose, everything to gain; if she is his sister, she is his family. She needs and deserves the truth - is Thomas Brosnan her father; is Pierce Brosnan her brother? Why are doors closed in her face; is someone hiding something; why keep her a secret, hidden in shadows? She has contacted a relative of Mr. Brosnan's in Ireland willing to provide DNA. Experts say there is no way to prove Mr. Brosnan is her brother, other than through a sibling test. She wants no money from him. All she wants and DESERVES is to know who her family is. If tests prove he is not, she will slip quietly. If he is, what he chooses to do is entirely up to him; but for Carol it will provide answers she rightfully deserves to know. It would be a travesty if this story was left unfinished because of Mr. Brosnan's celebrity status; and greater travesty if she IS his sister and they both lose something precious - family.
