Kevin Spacey Charged with Sexual Assault

HeadlineDec 27, 2018

The actor Kevin Spacey has been charged with sexually assaulting a teenager in a bar in Massachusetts in 2016. Spacey is due in court on January 7 to face a felony charge that could bring him up to five years in prison. Spacey has denied the charges. On Monday, he posted a cryptic video on social media posing as the character Frank Underwood from the Netflix show “House of Cards,” where he spent five seasons. Spacey was fired from the show last year after more than a dozen men accused Spacey of sexually harassing or assaulting them.
