Kevin Spacey assaulted 18-year-old man last year, claims alleged victim's mother
Actor Kevin Spacey has been accused of sexually assaulting an 18-year-old man last year, by the alleged victim’s mother.
Former television anchor Heather Unruh alleged at a press conference in Boston that Mr Spacey had purchased her teenaged son “drink after drink” and then grabbed the young man’s genitals. “To Kevin Spacey, I want to say this: Shame on you for what you did to my son”, Ms Unruh said, according to the Associated Press, adding that “Nothing could have prepared my son for how that sexual assault would make him feel as a man”. Ms Unruh said her son had filed a police report, spurring an investigation. A spokesman for the Nantucket, Massachusetts police department said he could not confirm or deny whether that was the case, noting that state law makes reports of sexual assault confidential. The Independent was unable to reach a spokesman for Mr Spacey, whose former public relations representative recently severed ties. Last week, a representative said the actor - an Academy Award winner and star of the Netflix show House of Cards - was “taking the time necessary to seek evaluation and treatment” and that “no other information will be available at this time”. Multiple men have accused Mr Spacey of sexual harassment or assault. Actor Anthony Rapp, the first to come forward, claimed that Mr Spacey had made unwanted advances on him when Mr Rapp was 14. Mr Spacey responded that he did not remember the incident but owed Mr Rapp “the sincerest apology”.
