Total independent accusations

Once the charges against him were approved, Spacey announced his intention to travel to the British state to have the charges denied to the press.

“While I am disappointed with his decision to proceed, I will voluntarily appear in the UK as soon as possible and defend myself against these accusations, which I am sure will prove my innocence,” the representative said in a statement.

Since the charges against him became known, the actor has disappeared from the public scene.

Since 2017, he has been persecuted for allegations of sexual assault. In November of that year, London’s Old Vic Theater said it had received 20 separate charges alleging Spacey’s conduct against 20 men who had contact with him at the theater between 1995 and 2013.

When allegations of sexual misconduct surfaced, the actor was removed from the popular series ‘House of Cards’ and the movie ‘All the Money in the World’.

Some actions were set against the Oscar winner or prosecutors or the attorney general’s office decided to withdraw the charges, although this did not excuse Spacey from paying expensive damages.
