The attorney for Richard Jewell, who came under suspicion in the 1996 Olympic Park bombing before he was exonerated, criticized the movie 'Richard Jewell,' calling its depiction of a reporter at the center of the movie 'false and damning.'
Wood went on to write that evidence showed Scruggs was dating an Atlanta police officer at the time of the investigation and that the newspaper independently confirmed with the FBI that Jewell was a leading suspect before publication.In 2011, the Georgia Court of Appeals ruled for the newspaper, which had refused to negotiate a settlement of Jewell's lawsuit.
One of the things I love about directing is the ability to control the voice and message of the film. As an actor, it’s more complicated, and I want to share my perspective on my role in the film “Richard Jewell”."Contrary to a swath of recent headlines, I do not believe that Kathy 'traded sex for tips,'" Wilde tweeted."Nothing in my research suggested she did so, and it was never my intention to suggest she had.
Wilde also said in her Twitter thread that Scruggs was at the center of the"brutal and unjust vilification" of Jewell and that the film centered on the tragedy of the accusations against him.
