NFT: Corey Feldman re. Haim rape, doesn't name names but

Dr. D : 10/19/2017 8:29 am
"In his book, Feldman writes that Haim was raped at age 11 on the set of the 1986 film “Lucas,”.."

“The man who had stolen his innocence,” Feldman writes, “ . . . walks around now, one of the most successful people in the entertainment industry, still making money hand over fist.”

For years, there were accusations about Weinstein that weren't taken seriously. Will more people start taking Feldman and others like Molly Ringwald seriously about pedophilia in Hollywood? I've personally never doubted them.

Feldman can't name names for legal reasons (stupid statute of limitations in CA). He has said he/they are powerful and are "still making money hand over fist", so it probably wasn't a stage assistant. I'm tempted to list the names of the director and producer of the film "Lucas" here, but instead I'll just link the credits:

His friend was raped, and it obviously fucked up the guy badly enough that he ultimately ODd on painkillers.

The child predator situation in this country is alarming. When they had Sandusky, the implications that he was involved in a ring of powerful child traffickers had me hoping they would dig deeper and uncover some of these assholes, but no dice. The FBI keeps busting one operation after another, but no big names or operations seem to come to light. I hope these fucks get what's coming to them, one way or the other.

it's way back to Feldman legally. Testifying in court would be a different matter, but if all he wanted to do was financially take out the person responsible, there are ways to do it.

Otherwise, you don't find 'this is a really bad guy who's in a position where he could be doing this every day, did it to my good friend who ultimately killed himself, but I'm not talking' to be just a tad self-serving?

To come out, I never doubted that they were real accusations.

The whistleblower who was involved with the beginning of the Sandusky stuff did say the next phase of the story would be a larger underground circuit of pedophilia uncovered. Similarly I don't think that was made up either

In 1993, when police interviewed him as a potential witness in the Michael Jackson case, Feldman told police about the abuse and named names, but they pretty much ignored him and only focused on Jackson. He did try to do something about it and the authorities weren't interested.

pjcas18 : 10/19/2017 8:59 am : link
his musical debut with Corey Feldman and the Angels didn't exactly turn out as well as he hoped.

And what is he worried about statute of limitations for? that's only criminal isn't it? So the people can't be prosecuted criminally, maybe he can at least protect other children.

If he's worried about being sued, that could open all kinds of publicity to the accused that could actually make things worse for them (if the story is true and he names the right person/people).

jcn  
Dr. D : 10/19/2017 9:02 am : link
again, he has his own family to protect. Naming names isn't going to bring back his friend and could ruin him financially.

I think by specifically mentioning the film "Lucas" (everyone can look up the powerful men involved, i.e., the producer, director, et al.) and even for talking about this in the first place, he's doing the opposite of self serving.

I don't think this has helped his career. I believe he's put this out there to warn other parents.

If CA changed the statute of limitations law, which he is asking for, and he still didn't name names, you might have a better argument, imo.

I can sympathize with that - I don't want to make it seem like he's a bad guy in any way.

It's just that he's taken half a step forward - and he's waiting for someone else to pop up and take the ball the rest of the way. It's what he did with Jackson, and the others let him down. Maybe, given the fact that he's no longer being fed by that machine, he can take the rest of that step to bring those people to justice.

Imagine how many rich and powerful fucks in all walks of life must be involved for this to have popped up in a number of different industries and for it not to be uncovered yet.

There's still so much about that case that seems.....I don't know, incomplete to me.

pjcas18 : 10/19/2017 10:24 am : link
doubt Feldman. At least not many on here, one person mentioned his credibility but not in terms of did it happen, just if he could prove it. So not sure who "the doubters" are.

However only a very small part of the issue would be solved by hinting at the perpetrator and helping current parents of would be child actors keep their kids away from this animal.

This person would still be free to live life unencumbered and even if statutory justice cannot be met, their life should still be ruined for what they've done.

So, whether Feldman publicly has a press conference himself and names names (I wouldn't think that's necessary) or does it through a reporter it would be good to bring these people (or person) to justice in the court of public opinion. reporters protect their sources all the time.

I doubt Weinstein does time, but I'd be surprised if he works again. Haim's attacker should suffer a similar fate.

This is one of those cases where the kids have no say, and anyone who is empowered to or responsible for their care likely doesn't give half of a shit.

a lot of documentaries missed the mark. They used child stars as ways to show how "fame and fortune" led to substance abuse and adult woes. I wonder how much of that was due to predators. Todd Bridges alluded to molestation on the set of Diff'ent Strokes, and it wouldn't surprise me given the issues they all had.

The Corey's were looked at as being drugged out weirdos who self-destructed when it is entirely possible they were hooked on drugs by predators who then robbed their souls. Horrific.

1) Feldman has been saying this for a number of years, but has never named names.

3) I despise the current statute of limitations laws in most states, including NY. It has prevented my wife from getting full closure on her past. I have spoken to several local and state politicians about this. They will all say they support changing the laws, but there is no traction there.

They don't anymore, the statute of limitations was repealed last year and there were loopholes on the 10 year limit anyway, but because Haim is deceased it complicates things regarding the 10 year statute of limitations loophole.
And even if he were sued for slander or libel

The truth is a complete defense. As the plaintiff, any alleged perpetrator would have to establish that he did NOT commit the acts alleged by Feldman. Who exactly would want to go through that sort of very public lawsuit?

So do most states. In NYS there is a statute of limitations. I believe you have 5 years from the committed act for child sexual abuse. It is really ridiculous, as many (most?) victims don't come forward until years later for a variety of reasons. Sexual abuse can be crippling for anyone, but it is especially true of a child and it has long lasting effects. Many can't even begin to deal with the trauma until well into their adulthood, when the statute of limitations is long gone.

This is where my wife is. As a young girl into her teens she was molested. When she finally came forward her family didn't take her seriously because it was a family member. It wasn't until her mid-20s that she began dealing with this in therapy and the it was far too late. In that regard, there is no real sense of closure for the victims.

2) Why does CA Statute of Limitations prevent him from naming the alleged perpetrator?



Because if he names names, he can be held liable for slander and be subject to lawsuits.

Unless he has footage of the acts, and especially if a studio is tied to the claims, he will likely have to spend a crapload of $$ defending himself, once again becoming a victim.
As others pointed out, though, that is assuming the alleged perpetrator wants to also go through that. Just as in this case, the Cosby case, etc. once one person comes forward, a lot of high profile victims come forward.

I understand his position. It just infuriates me how difficult it is for victims. And, I believe Feldman was abused as well. So, it is not just dealing with the nightmare of a deceased victim.

The mental and emotional trauma is indescribable. This is why I get so angry when people here (and in general) get cavalier about a male teenage student having sex with a female teacher, but up in arms when it is a female student and male teacher. In either case, the teacher is acting inappropriately, illegally, immorally, and abusing their position of authority...even if it appears to be consensual. The long term affects are immeasurable.
jcn, I understand the Sandusky comparison  
ij_reilly : 10/19/2017 10:43 am : link
I would point out three differences:

1. This is a Hollywood story, and Hollywood stories are likely to generate more interest than college football stories, especially on in a global sense. Disclaimer: I don't mean to categorize the Sandusky situation as a college football story. I don't see it that way, but others do. It's much more than that.

2. There is tremendous buzz right now regarding abuse in Hollywood. It's a very hot topic. I don't think the Sandusky disgrace generated the same energy and urgency (sadly).

3. Social media. What kind of social media presence did the Sandusky story have? Very little. The Hollywood abuse thing is screaming all over social media, for example, #metoo. Social media can be very powerful.

I'm hopeful that people will be "outed", although there are multiple significant reasons for skepticism. I'm going with "hopeful" because I'm just that kind of person and it's something I really want. This stuff has to end.

True....but Feldman is not necessarily without options to fight back. While I don't know the ins and outs of California law and Statutes of Limitations, if the plaintiff were to bring these issues up, then he would likely be opening the door for Feldman to assert counterclaims in the millions of dollars for pain and suffering, lost earnings, and other damages relating to the alleged abuse. With the plaintiff's already difficult road to prove that Feldman is lying, plus potential liability on counterclaims by Feldman, Feldman could be in position for a good settlement if a perpetrator were to actually bring a slander or libel lawsuit.

If what Feldman

says is true and he has proof or even corroborating witnesses it would be beyond risky for anyone to sue him for libel or defamation.

Plus, Feldman would be able to counter-sue for legal fees and damages.

Given the high profile nature of this case, I can almost guarantee a Gloria Allred type would do it pro-bono.

The risk a pedophile has of suing a person who accuses them of a a true act of pedophilia is enough of a deterrent IMO - especially if their closet is littered with more skeletons like it probably is.

IMO they'd be better served (if it's true) issuing a swift denial, maybe even threaten to sue, and hope it goes away.

Lastly, Feldman has a very low net worth, he's at risk of losing almost nothing. In fact in the court of public opinion it could even help to have him viewed sympathetically.

Foley & DC pages. Hastert and his student (?). Coaches & their players. And of course Clergyman & children. To name only some. (I’d cite a couple more high profile men but that would send the thread to deletion).

Important to highlight a distinction between harassment and actual physical abuse (especially toward minors) but it’s all fucking disgusting.

Isn't why this poor slob doesn't name names, it's why does CA have the statute of limitations law for child rape?

So do most states. In NYS there is a statute of limitations. I believe you have 5 years from the committed act for child sexual abuse. It is really ridiculous, as many (most?) victims don't come forward until years later for a variety of reasons. Sexual abuse can be crippling for anyone, but it is especially true of a child and it has long lasting effects. Many can't even begin to deal with the trauma until well into their adulthood, when the statute of limitations is long gone.

This is where my wife is. As a young girl into her teens she was molested. When she finally came forward her family didn't take her seriously because it was a family member. It wasn't until her mid-20s that she began dealing with this in therapy and the it was far too late. In that regard, there is no real sense of closure for the victims.


Matt, Excellent post and I feel for your situation and your wife's trauma. People that have experience with this understand perfectly well why very strong people often do not come forward and the many institutional barriers to doing so. Survivors of molestation that come forward are to be applauded and protected, not chastised for doing too little too late.

my mention of the "media elites" was specifically in reference to Keith's post about Barbara Walters' (I don't know of anyone in the media more "elite") total dismissal of Feldman's allegation, which could easily have been interpreted as a defense of the hollywood scumbags.

I'm not sure what you're talking about as far as my tone.

Do you think it's appropriate that Barbara Walters in a TV interview completely dismissed Feldman's allegation without consideration that it might be true? Treating him like he's an irresponsible nutjob?

Do you think it's appropriate that Woody Allen (accused by multiple people of being a child molester) and Roman Polanski (a known child rapist - drugged and sodomized a 13 year old girl) get standing ovations at award ceremonies?

Your big problem is that I called them hollywood/media elites?

The word "elite" bothers you that much?
I don't know about Polanski...  
FatMan in Charlotte : 10/19/2017 11:28 am : link
but Woody Allen is definitely revered in Hollywood and people fawn all over themselves to work with him.

He's pretty much the definition of elite.

The term is splitting hairs anyway. The point was that Hollywood has no problem lauding and fostering people who have had some really nasty allegations tossed their way.

Tarantino sometimes gets on my nerves but I give him credit that he didn't just feign shock as so many other close to Wienstein did, but has come out and said he knew.

“I knew enough to do more than I did,” the director told the New York Times on Wednesday. “There was more to it than just the normal rumors, the normal gossip. It wasn’t secondhand. I knew he did a couple of these things....”

"What I did was marginalize the incidents,” he said. “Anything I say now will sound like a crappy excuse...."

But guys like him and Roman Polanski get standing ovations at award ceremonies by those self righteous pedophile enabling hollywood elites.


The Whoopi Goldberg quote on Polanski was insane and sick. They don't care in general. Scum.

I was hoping you would join this discussion. I figured you would have some insight. The fact they named names back then, deflates the argument about why he doesn't name names.
jcn56 you are a liar

It's very rare that I get on the net during games. I think you just want to excuse your disgusting behavior. You are trash.


I googled what Whoopi  
Dr. D : 10/20/2017 10:10 am : link
said. "It wasn't rape rape".

What a dumb bitch.
Anyone...

...who wants to make light of these kinds of stories or mock victims is a dumb bitch.

and her friends in Hllywood can get away with it.

Can anyone imagine referring to a 13 year old girl being raped vaginally and anally as - "not rape rape"?

The girl was drugged and repeatedly said no. But it wasn't "rape rape"? If that's not rape, WTF is?

I guess..

..Whoopi believes that rape must include some sort of a physical struggle. This probably means that she believes Bill Cosby never raped anyone either.
Everyone knows that rape only occurs in dark alley ways

On the View discussing Polanski she tried to insinuate his rape wasn't "rape rape" as he wasn't as bad as people were making it out to be. Like drugging a 13 old isn't as bad as breaking into a house I guess.

Sad and disgusting

That's what's so insane. That many would stand and cheer him. My opinion is that deviance and depravity is their norm. What concerning adults to is fine. But there seems to be no level

Out. Walters is a pile of shit too. Why the fuck would Feldman lie?

isn't making money hand over fist nor does he hold any power in Hollywood.

David Nicksay the producer is a different story.
I think Nicksay

Is the Haim abuser. It’s weird that a guy of his success level doesn’t have a Wikipedia page. And while that doesn’t prove anything, it’s suspicious.
These cases
