Media hound Gloria Allred should be disbarred.
Representing an illegal immigrant who is a former housekeeper of Meg Whitman, who just happens to be running for Governor of California, Ms. Allred has taken to the airwaves in a blatant, if not illegal attempt to tar Meg Whitman with the label of liar just ahead of the California gubernatorial election.
Ms. Allred appeared with her client Nicky Diaz Santillan on national television yesterday to show what a big meanie Meg Whitman is. With tears dripping down her cheeks and a quavering voice, Santillan detailed how (Republican) Meg Whitman abused her. She was actually forced to drive a car and allegedly Whitman refused to pay her overtime.
Allred actually referred to her client as a modern day Rosa Parks - willing to risk deportation in order to expose the various injustices perpetrated upon her. "Americans appreciate the huge risks she is taking" Allred said. Huh?
Gloria Allred has informed the nation that her client has entered this country illegally and has used a stolen social security number in order to obtain employment. In essence, Gloria Allred has exposed her client to deportation and/or jail time. Other illegal immigrants who have gone public for various reasons have eventually ended up deported.
No amount of spin can gloss over the legal jeopardy Allred has exposed her client to. And no amount of ginned up indignation can obscure the fact that Allred has sacrificed her client for her own agenda.
Allred has manufactured a reputation of being a 'woman's advocate.' She envisions herself as a protector of all women against the patriarchal system of old white men. Her reputation is a direct result of accepting only those cases which will guarantee her publicity. No matter how frivolous. I know this from personal knowledge, having done business with Allred's firm.

“Do you believe it actually took 9 years to realize this woman, described as part of the family, was in this country illegally?”
Do you realize it never occurred to the wife of the BTK serial murderer that her husband would ever hurt anyone? I believe he committed those murders over a fifteen year spread, too.
Lots of people have secrets, AuntB, that others never suspect.
EXACTLY!
The letter specifically says that it was sent to clear up a mismatch in her SS number so that the SS office could begin to apply her earnings to her SS record and that it makes NO statements as to their immigration status. So what happens if the person never "clears" that up? Where do those 'earnings' get applied?
In fact, the letter explicitly states that it is not intended to question an individual’s immigration status.
Allred is Allwet.
