Los Angeles prosecutors said
on Wednesday they were reviewing a second sexual assault case
involving Oscar-winning actor Kevin Spacey.
"A sex assault case was presented yesterday to our office by
the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department involving Kevin
Spacey. It remains under review," Los Angeles District Attorney
spokesman Greg Risling said in an emailed statement.
Risling declined to give any details on the latest case.
Representatives for the actor did not immediately return
requests for comment on Wednesday.
The District Attorney's office said in April that it was
reviewing a case involving Spacey dating from 1992, involving an
adult male. Spacey last October publicly
acknowledged for the first time that he was gay.
More than 30 men have said they were victims of unwanted
sexual advances by Spacey, who became embroiled in controversy
last year when actor Anthony Rapp accused him of trying to
seduce him in 1986 when Rapp was 14. In October, Spacey
apologized for any inappropriate conduct with Rapp but has not
commented since.
The fallout resulted in Spacey, who won a best actor Oscar
in 2000 for " American Beauty," being dropped from the final
season of the Netflix series " House of Cards" and erased from
the 2017 movie " All the Money in the World."
Netflix in January reported a $39 million write-off on
Spacey-related projects.
London's Old Vic theater, where Spacey served as artistic
director for 12 years, said last year that it received 20
accusations of inappropriate conduct by Spacey between 1995 and
2013.
Spacey is one of dozens of men in the entertainment industry
and politics who have been accused of sexual misconduct in the
past 10 months, partly as a result of the #MeToo social media
movement.
