A prosecutor says it's more than a coincidence that three of Kevin Spacey’s four accusers described similar crotch-grabbing incidents.
said the interactions with the Hollywood star that left the men feeling “small, diminished and worthless” were similar not because the men had conspired — they didn’t know each other — but because it was, as she said earlier in the case, Spacey’s trademark move.“There comes a stage when so many people are saying the same thing,” Agnew told a London jury. “It just becomes, I’d suggest, overwhelming.
That changed after allegations in the U.S. arose in 2017 during the height of the #MeToo movement when a fellow American actor accused Spacey of sexual misconduct decades earlier.Other allegations followed and eventually led the four men to independently complain to police in the U.K. about incidents between 2001 and 2013, mostly during the period Spacey was artistic director at the Old Vic Theatre in London.
“Are they all motivated by ‘money, money, money’ as you were told rather dramatically by the defendant?” Agnew said in quoting a snippet of Spacey’s testimony. “Or have they all just had enough of the secret of the truth that they have been carrying around for many years? They’re no longer prepared to be the secret keeper of someone who treated them so badly.”
Agnew admitted being star struck by the singer’s appearance, which was beamed into the court by video link from Monaco, but told the jurors not to be “sidetracked by the glitter.”
