LONDON : An alleged sex assault victim of Kevin Spacey said the"slippery" Hollywood actor had tried to"groom" him before later repeatedly groping him, a London court heard on Monday.
He has denied all the charges and his lawyer said last week at the start of the trial the jury were going to hear some"damned lies". After two to three weeks of being with Spacey, the actor had begun rubbing the man's legs and neck while he was driving, before later starting to grope him or force the man's hand onto his genitalia, he said.The alleged victim, who cannot be identified, said the"touchy feely" actor had on one occasion aggressively grabbed his crotch so hard when he was driving him to a party hosted by singer Elton John that he almost crashed the car.
