"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:

How about a pedophile and scumbag hunt?
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.

The limitations law should be changed.

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?
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
Exactly, that's mentioned in the one article. Those people make me want to puke. And yet so many in this country seem to take the opinions of these hollywood/media elites seriously; like we should look up to them and trust their judgment.

How about the porn star that named tiger woods? No credibilty right? What does she know - just looking for that 15 minute of fame. Right.
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).
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.
And a more basic question - does Feldman actually make any Hollywood money these days?
Often, even if you win, you lose - financially and otherwise.
And there's what Greg linked.
What about Elijah Wood? He's said the same things in recent years. You gonna call Frodo a liar?

I get it's not easy - but why go half the distance then?
“I literally heard that they were ‘passed around,’” Arngrim said. “The word was that they were given drugs and being used for sex. It was awful–these were kids, they weren’t 18 yet. There were all sorts of stories about everyone from their, quote, ‘set guardians’ on down that these two had been sexually abused and were totally being corrupted in every possible way.”
Anyway, since we're talking about pedophiles in powerful places.....I'll go ahead and put on my tinfoil hat here and wonder about Penn State and Sandusky. There's still so much about that case that seems.....I don't know, incomplete to me. I wouldn't be surprised if there yet turned out to be some truth to the rumors that Sandusky was being protected by wealthy PSU boosters to whom he was pimping those Second Mile boys out.
While it is not at all a surprise to me (my own wife had to speak to HR over sexual harassment at work) the #MeToo movement sure has been eye opening.
Also, not that he was the greatest actor or anything but I also find it strange that he cannot get ANY work at all. Not even a small part somewhere. There are roles that fit his skillset and character type.
Yep. It's not limited to Hollywood. Capitol Hill, Wall Street, Fashion Industry. You'll find it everywhere.
Again, he has his own family (he has at least one son) to protect financially.
Even if he's not making a living acting, do you think he wants to blow his savings on legal fees?
Are the doubters here willing to pay his lawyers?

That's a fair point, even if it doesn't cut off his money supply having to fend off a series of lawsuits would be just as effective.
Sheen has money, seems to have no filter, enjoys the limelight, was on the set of Lucas so probably knows the story, and Sheen enjoys #winning
Isn't him saying that it's happening enough? Why is he responsible for naming names? Shouldn't it be the parents due diligence to take the idea that it's happening and do their own due diligence when letting their child enter the field?
The Producer of "Lucas". He would fit Feldman's description.
If you're speaking only for yourself, you probably shouldn't assign responsibility to him.

Sheen doesn't strike me as the selfless type. He's not going to put himself out there unless he's going to benefit from it.

That's what's most troubling to me. It was actually considered chic and trendy to support Polanski.
Again, it's pretty freaking easy to look up the credits for "Lucas" and see the couple of powerful men that fit Feldman's description.
Why does he have to risk his life savings? If any parent reads these allegations and doesn't take them seriously because Feldman doesn't name names, you've got to be f*cking kidding me.
I think we will see some news break soon.

I really hope so, but I doubt it. Look no further than Sandusky for proof. All that attention, he claimed he was hiding others, and nobody was ever flushed out.
I'm more disappointed in law enforcement than anything else - if anyone should be able to work around people covering for higher ups, it should be them.
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.
