Sasha Pieterse says Alison has forgiven Charlotte in Season 6 of Pretty Little Liars.

“Charlotte’s gotten a lot better, that’s kind of how we open. I’m asking the girls to basically come back and approve of Charlotte’s trial to be let out as a normal citizen, which is hard, obviously, it brings a lot of turmoil back. It’s interesting to see how all the girls handle each other again because they’re all totally different people now, and this is really their first time coming together again. So it’s surreal and it’s dark and it’s twisted and it’s hard to deal with.”

Kitty Genovese‘s brother is part of The Witness, a new film about the tragic murder of Kitty, a lesbian, and what might have really happened that night when her neighbors ignored her screams.
