After John Sweeny was released from prison after only serving two and a half
years he found work quickly. Dunne's mother, Ellen Griffin, started a
grievance support group called, "Justice for Victims of Homicide." On
the nights that he worked (as a chef) Griffin and other group members
would hand out slips of paper to restaurant patrons that read, "The
hands that will prepare your meal tonight also murdered Dominique
Dunne." He was fired almost immediately.
