K.J. Yossman Kevin Spacey has made his first appearance in a U.K. criminal court on charges of sexual assault.Last month the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS), similar to a District Attorney in the U.S., authorized charges to be brought against the actor.
He has been charged with four counts of sexual assault in the U.K. against three men between 2005 and 2013. He was also charged with “causing a person to engage in penetrative sexual activity without consent.” The alleged victims are now in their 30s and 40s.The actor, who was once the toast of Hollywood, appeared calm as he was led in through the courtroom and into the dock, dressed in a dark blue suit, white shirt and black tie with glasses.
He spoke to give his name, date of birth and U.K. address and nodded as the charges were read. Initially, deputy chief magistrate Tan Ikram referred to Spacey as “Mr Fowler” – his birth name – until the actor’s barrister, Patrick Gibbs QC, explained to the court he would refer to his client as “Mr Spacey.” When the deputy chief magistrate asked Spacey directly how he would prefer to be referred to by the court, the actor indicated he would prefer “Mr Spacey.”Much of the hearing was taken up with discussing bail conditions, with the CPS requesting bail on condition that Spacey surrendered his travel documents, promised not to apply for any other travel documents, slept at his London address and did not contact the prosecution’s witnesses except via lawyers where necessary.In particular, prosecutor Natalie Dawson said that while she understood Spacey wanted to return to the U.S.
