Vampire movie studio says Argentine admitted theft

BUENOS AIRES, Argentina - August 5, 2011

Summit Entertainment is suing Daiana Santa in a U.S. federal court and alleging she stole images from the latest installment of the "Twilight" series. Santia says she stumbled onto them while surfing online and denies distributing them.

Summit responded to her denial Thursday in a news release saying Santia earlier acknowledged making a systematic attack on the company's servers and email accounts over several months.

The 24-year-old student has accused Summit of trying to seize her computers. The company says it needs to inspect them to see if the stolen images were shared and if they have been erased.
