Kevin Spacey consistently engaged in illicit behavior. This was well-known in communities near the ‘Old Vic’ theater in London, where he served as artistic director, according to one of his victims.

The jurors in the Spacey trial, which is taking place in London’s Southwark crown court, viewed a taped police statement with the first of Kevin Spacey’s victims, whose identity is protected.

The man asserted that the celebrity was a ‘predator’ about whom attractive young men were ‘warned’ because everybody knew he was up to bad things.

According to The Guardian, the supposed victim of the Oscar-winning actor told detectives that Spacey was a very deceptive, slithery, and difficult individual who groomed him.

The 63-year-old actor allegedly attempted to entice him with assurances of referrals to Hollywood celebrities before assaulting him 12 times.

The man stated the situation was once a source of humor. It was understood. People would say, “You’d better be careful” if a new college-educated apprentice – a handsome young man – entered the workplace.

It was common knowledge that [Kevin Spacey] was up to no good.

In the early 2000s, according to the actor’s first accuser, Spacey routinely caressed him before laughing off the man’s objections.

Allegedly, Spacey’s behavior escalated over time, leaving the man sick, humiliated, and embarrassed.

The accuser stated Spacey touched his thighs and genitals (over his clothing), smacked his buttocks, and placed the man’s hands on his genitals.

However, according to the accuser, even though Spacey was an enraging man, the actor could also be charming. The individual claims the incidents occurred over the course of a few years.

The man also made comparisons between Spacey and his on-screen persona in the Fincher movie, that he is somewhat similar to his Se7en character. A tad eerie, but possibly not as awful.

In the 1995 film, Spacey portrays a deranged killer influenced by the seven deadly sins.

The man described how, from the time he met Spacey through his position as artistic director of the Old Vic theater in London, Spacey showered him with inquiries and praise.  According to him, Spacey almost immediately began grooming him.

Because he was ’embarrassed’ and feared career repercussions, the man waited a decade before making his allegations public. The alleged abuse triggered anxiety, tension, and depression in him.
