A lawyer for Kevin Spacey sought Tuesday to poke holes in the story of fellow actor Anthony Rapp, who says Spacey made a sexual advance on him when he was a teenager.
During an aggressive cross-examination at a civil trial in Manhattan, defense attorney Jennifer Keller zeroed in on inconsistencies between Rapp’s account of how he first met Spacey in 1986 and that of an older friend who was there.
Considering the friend’s deposition, “You knew you had a problem with your story, correct?” Keller asked.According to Rapp, it was days later when he went to Spacey’s apartment for the first time for a party. He has testified that after the other guests left, Spacey forced himself on him by pinning him to a bed — an allegation Spacey denies.
The cross-examination came during the second week of a trial stemming from the accusation Rapp first made publicly in 2017 before suing Spacey. It was among similar claims that largely shut down Spacey’s career with allegations of inappropriate touching or sexual advances.
