Celebrity Justice
Charges Against Kristy Swanson Dropped

Kristy SwansonCanadian prosecutors have dropped assault charges against "Skating with Celebrities" star Kristy Swanson, stemming from a confrontation between Swanson and the ex-wife of her boyfriend and skating partner, Olympic medalist Lloyd Eisler.

According to Swanson's attorney, Constance Baran-Gerez, "The Crown and I worked together in the best of all parties to resolve the matter." Her other attorney, Randolph W. Wright, adds, "These charges should never have been brought against Kristy Swanson."

Swanson, through rep Michael Sands, says, "I am thrilled and excited that the charge has been dropped ... this never should have happened and our family can move on."

Police in Ontario arrested the "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" star last June for allegedly assaulting Marcia O'Brien, ex-wife of Eisler. Swanson says she was with Eisler to visit his two young children when O'Brien attacked her in front of the children, bruising her knee and scratching her arm. No charges were filed against O'Brien.

16. Who the hell CARES?! She is a washed up has-been!

It's sad that the only media coverage she can get lately is either surrounding her homewrecking ways, or being smashed in public. Maybe if she made another movie we'd all truly care what the hell she does in her spare time (good or bad)... until then, keep this "newsworthy" stuff in the recycling bin where it belongs.

20. Kristy is crazy if she thinks she'll ever be viewed as anything but a washed-up, homewrecking Jezebel. i bet Lyle is really thinking all this was not worth it.

21.
I guess the relationship was not one where she should have went along to visit with the kids knowing the ex was to be there.
some woman get stupid when they are wanting to force themselves into a situation not ready for them.It becomes less about the kids and more about who's the top dog now

23. If he was there to see his children, why was she there? To antagonize an already-touchy situation. The ex-wife should have kicked both their asses, his for being so stupid to bring Kristy and hers for being the bitch she obviously is for messing with a married man in the first place and then having the effin audacity to show up at her house. I would STILL be beating both their asses. They would NEED to call the cops to get me off.

24. I live in the same city as Lloyd Eislers ex-wife and had the pleasure of having her, and both of her parents, as teachers. Marica is the most amazing and generous person I have ever met! Kristy Swanson is a whore, and a homewrecker. Lloyd was and still is not well-regarded around town as he was fired for acting innapropriately with a 15 year old girl that he was training. Marcia is doing fantastically and wants no business with Lloyd or his stupid wife and wants to move on. Kristy and Lloyd should go live in a hole. They are not welcome in my town.

25. This woman is the worst kind of whore - she shopped for a husband in someone else's marriage. Frankly, I think the ex-wife should be entitled to a full fifteen minutes of time with Swanson in a locked room to beat the living hell out of her. I wouldn't want this whore around my kids either. Good for the ex-wife!

26. Any woman who cheats with a married man is a hoe. Blame the hoe, blame the hoe. Takes 2, not one to have an AFFAIR. She will end up and a dried up lonely old hag when he gets tired of her and finds himself a new one. Better yet, when he goes back and sleeps with his ex wife. His ex will sleep with him to get Kristy back. Karma baby Karma.
Anyone who says blame the husband, has to have been cheating with a married person herself. Unless you have been cheated on, you would know why Kristy got a beat down, lol Usually people who say blame the married spouse is because they cheated with one and they don't want to take the blame as well. Wake up your not perfect. Your a slut.

27. Most of you have it ALL WRONG!!!! Those of you who post about the whole thing in a negative manner do not have your stories straight.
Kristy Swanson did NOT break up any marriage. She started dating Lloyd after he was seperated (not living with) from his ex-wife and that is the truth! She is NOT a homewrecker or a whore as many of you say. His marriage was over and his ex even said so in interviews. Said that they had seperated once before, before Kristy had ever met the man.
Also, I believe that it was Lloyd's ex wife that attacked Kristy. Look at all the interviews from last June. Kristy says that Lloyd's ex got into Kristy and Lloyd's car. Why the hell would that woman be in Kristy's car? It looks to me that Kristy defended herself and Lloyd's ex tried to make it look like Kristy did the damage. I think that the police had to drop the case because it makes zero sense for the ex to have been in Kristy's car plus the fact that Kristy would have zero motive to hurt Lloyd's ex. It is the ex that has ALL the motive in the world to go after Kristy, just look at her press she has done and bad talking on TV about Lloyd and Kristy. I believe that it is Marcia O'Brien that is the perp here.......not Kristy.

That's how I see it.

Congrat's to you Kristy for being patient and letting the law come around to be on your side! It's about time!

28. #24--Kristy you are sooooo wrong. Lloyd and Marcia were not separated at the time Skating with Celebrities was being taped in August and September. Kristy went out with them frequently and knew they were married, living together etc. Yet another ridiculous story from Swanson and Eisler. Kristy's boyfriend at the time of their taping in September caught Lloyd and Kristy together in her hotel room and Eisler was jumping over the balcony while trying to get his clothes on! Marcia O'Brien (Eisler-ex) found out about all of this in November while 8 months pregnant.

Police charged Swanson--check this out:
