A jury concluded Tuesday that Kevin Spacey didn't molest fellow actor Anthony Rapp in the 1980s, bringing to a conclusion to a sexual misconduct civil trial that was an outgrowth of the #MeToo movement.
The verdict in the Manhattan federal court civil trial came after jurors considered whether to believe Rapp's claims that he was psychologically damaged after Spacey made a sexual advance on him in 1986, when he was just 14 years old. Both were relatively unknown actors in Broadway plays.
Spacey testified that the encounter never happened, and said he was sure of it.
