Kevin Spacey asked a judge to throw out actor Anthony Rapp's sex abuse lawsuit, saying through his lawyers that the allegations of abuse are false
NEW YORK CITY -- Actor Kevin Spacey asked a judge Friday to throw out actor Anthony Rapp's sex abuse lawsuit, saying through his lawyers that allegations that he abused the then-teenage Rapp at a 1980s party are false.
Spacey's lawyers argued the alleged encounter cannot qualify as sexual abuse under New York's laws because the only alleged contact with an"intimate" part of the body by Spacey was when his hand grazed the 14-year-old Rapp's buttocks when the older actor picked him up. The lawyers said Rapp"wriggled out" with no resistance during an encounter of less than 30 seconds.
When Rapp first spoke publicly of his claim in 2017, others went public too and Spacey's then-celebrated career abruptly halted. At the time, Spacey issued a statement saying he didn't remember the encounter but apologized.
