I love how Spacey's statement makes it all about HIM. "Oh, yes, this has been my lifestyle choice" blah blah blah. Someone was traumatized by an event thirty years ago, fine, let's talk about ME. Typical egomaniac actor.
But I will say this--we don't know Spacey knew Rapp was a minor: Rapp was (presumeably) at this adult party unaccompanied and unsupervised, it was at the
end of the party, is that people would hook up so unusual? Rapp had NO BUSINESS BEING THERE IN THAT SITUATION, and that he would be propositioned by SOMEONE is highly probable. Rapp suggests Spacey did not use force or coerce him, at least from what he stated now. Rapp WAS victimized: it's a clear lack of appropriate monitoring of a minor. (Even if: he lied to a parental figure to go to the party, if he arrived with a dozen friends, who were of age, etc--NO MATTER.) Somebody dropped the ball and it wasn't Spacey. |
