LONDON - An alleged victim of Kevin Spacey told a London court on Monday that he believes the Oscar-winning U.S. actor drugged him before performing oral sex on him after he had passed out. Spacey is on trial at London’s Southwark Crown Court on
Gibbs said it was “well-known in the theatre industry that Mr Spacey liked to flirt with men”, which the alleged victim accepted.
He also said he had brought a civil lawsuit against Spacey in Britain, seeking around 400,000 pounds in damages, but added: “What I want is criminal justice.” He said in a recorded police interview played to jurors that they met in central London before going to Spacey’s flat, where the pair drank beer, ate pizza and smoked some cannabis.
Later in his interview, the man said he had been told that Spacey liked “young, straight guys”, but was then unconcerned as he “didn’t know at that point that he was a predator”.
