|
|
Quote: | The actor Kevin Spacey has been charged with four counts of sexual assault against three men, the Crown Prosecution Service said.
Rosemary Ainslie, the head of the CPS special crime division, said: “The CPS has authorised criminal charges against Kevin Spacey, 62, for four counts of sexual assault against three men.
“He has also been charged with causing a person to engage in penetrative sexual activity without consent. The charges follow a review of the evidence gathered by the Metropolitan police in its investigation.
“The Crown Prosecution Service reminds all concerned that criminal proceedings against Mr Spacey are active and that he has the right to a fair trial.”
More details soon … |

Quote: | The first two alleged assaults took place in London in March 2005 against the same man, who is now in his 40s.
The third alleged assault and the charge of causing a person to engage in penetrative sexual activity without consent relate to an incident that took place in August 2008 in London, against a separate man who is now in his 30s.
A fourth alleged assault took place against a third man, who is now in his 30s, in Gloucestershire in 2013.
|
Quote: | The Old Vic theater in London, where Spacey was the artistic director for 11 years until 2015, said two years after his departure that during its own investigation into his conduct, it received 20 allegations of inappropriate behavior and encouraged 14 of the people who made the allegations to go to the police.
Those allegations covered interactions between 1995 and 2013, all of them dealing with men. The alleged incidents ranged from behavior that made people feel uncomfortable, to "sexually inappropriate" touching, but there were no allegations of rape reported by the theater.

And I apologize. I hope for justice if he’s guilty, despite my love for his work, and i don’t mean to belittle the victims so much as take a poke at the naive question. _________________ “We must always take sides.

It's not that hard (no pun intended, but it is pertinent) to figure out.
The person who is not giving consent is not going to be the one doing the act, nor are they likely to be in the condition to be forced to do the act. _________________ You thought God was an architect, now you know
