Kevin Spacey Issues Statement on Sexual Assault Allegations
- Thread starter Vectorman

Yeah, you're right. But it can't be some wishy-washy gaslighting nonsense where it's half-apology and half-denial.
I agree.
Crappy people that abuse their power/status are in all walks of life. I am sure in major corporations/politics/law enforcement these scum exsist. Just in Hollywood it gets more traction so its more pronounced. There are 1000's of people in Hollywood but if we hear about 10 horrible ones it seems like its everyone.
Not saying Hollywood is innocent but I bet % wise its probably not to far off from the rest of society. And this doesn't excuse horrible behaviour of course.
His brother is a Rod Stewart impersonator/limo driver that lives here in Boise. He's the fun sort of eccentric that you see around town. Usually he's in these flamboyant zoot suits leaned up against his limo outside of a coffee shop, or the airport. I think he's been a bit broken by his brother's success and has always wanted a bit of the limelight. One of the local stations here had an interview with him talking about the childhood abuse that he and Spacey suffered growing up. That's not to excuse Kevin's behavior, I just thought it might be of interest.
I wish there weren't bad people in every facet of any industry / organization, but I do believe it's the few that ruin it for the many. Not to be a pollyanna but what keeps me from going nuts is the fact that there are still a lot of good people out there that outweigh evil.
I can't make threads yet, but, add another one to the list: Jeremy Piven accused of sexual assault by reality star Ariane Bellamar
It's getting crazy. At this point I half expect guys to start outing girls (and guys) who slept their way to the top as some sort of backhanded retaliation.
It's gonna be a race to give the first tell all book/interview, though I suppose Feldman has already given his price.
A buddy of mine has had his IMDB Pro info used to try to catfish him into sexual stuff. Hollywood is nuts.

Kevin Spacey was brought up by a Nazi father who raped his brother and brutalized his family so badly that they called him The Creature, his older brother exclusively told the DailyMail.com.
Now, as the Oscar-winning actor faces allegations of trying to seduce Star Trek's Antony Rapp when he was just 14 years old and of sexually assaulting a relative of former US news anchor Heather Unruh, the truth of his own troubled upbringing has been revealed.
Spacey's older brother Randall Fowler, 62, described the current allegations leveled at his brother as 'disturbing' to DailyMail.com, as he acknowledged he had been made aware of them in the early hours of Monday morning.

Additional information regarding his allegedly upbringing from his brother Randall Fowler on "DailyMail.com" as well as his personal take on this current situation.
PS: Excuse my lack of information regarding this current thread but like a few others I am still in shock and it seems it is going to take me months to sink in that my second all-time-favorite actor would be part of something of this nature.
I feel disgusted and ashamed.. of myself. Upon reading the new allegations today my first thought was 'Damn we're really not getting the sixth season of HoC now'. When really my first thoughts should have been with the survivors for their courage for speaking out. I'll go and sit on the naughty step and do some self reflection for a while.
Some more men have come forward with allegations:

I've heard a lot of rumours that it was an open secret he was a creep during his time at the Old Vic.

Yup, just saw this and the news about Piven. He denies his accusations, so thats up in the air.
But Spacey? Yea...its getting clearer now that he has some serious issues.
This is why the timing of him coming out is BS and he should be outcast form Hollywood and anywhere for doing that. We are living in some messed up times.
Not only is House of Cards done, but Netflix also scrapped the Gore Vidal biopic that already paid for/was in post-production
so his career REALLY done right now. Whoever got that Ridley Scott movie starring Spacey is up shit's creek with no paddle.

I'd say Spacey would be well off financially by this point but he did that cat movie like last year so who knows.
It feels weird to have someone go from a favorite actor to a top candidate for your "fall off a very tall bridge" wishlist in just a matter of days, but here we are.
Career implosion is too light a punishment for this abhorrent behavior, but at least it's better than nothing.

Richard Dreyfuss's son is another in a long list of people to reveal that he was assaulted by Kevin Spacey:
Actor Harry Dreyfuss: When I Was 18, Kevin Spacey Groped Me
Actor Harry Dreyfuss: When I Was 18, Kevin Spacey Groped Me
That's just too horrible. His father was in the room and that happened? I would say that if i were in his shoes i'd have stood up and said WTF are you doing man. But that's easy talk for me. Truth be told, i've never been in such a situation and can't imagine it either.
oh my god. Dude I can't even imagine the level of rage Richard must be feeling right now.
fuck Spacey. Piece of shit.
Sorry guys, I really need to vent rn.
I'm just about disgusted with Slate's coverage of the scandal. With all of the allegations coming out against Spacey, they instead choose to focus on how calling him a pedophile is "problematic." See this article: http://www.slate.com/blogs/outward/...acey_a_pedophile_hurts_the_gay_community.html

That's a pretty fucked up article. By the date of it it does look like it's from a few days ago though, before all the other allegations came out, including actual child sex. But yeah, there should not be two standards. Don't have sex with anyone at all who is under the age of consent in your country - whether you're straight or gay.
