Elijah Wood claims Hollywood child abuse ring is real

[Muze]

If Corey Feldman today voices the accusation that someone sexually abused him, that person could sue him because the supposed offending act is the accusation that happens today, not the actual sexual abuse itself. So there is no statute of limitations, unless the accused person waits for several years before launching the defamation or libel suit.

That stated, while the alleged abuser cannot be prosecuted, should this theoretical defamation suit go to an actual trial, Feldman has the advantage of basically being able to tell the whole story up on the witness stand. I am not a lawyer, but it's my understanding that in tort/civil trials, there are fewer limitations as to publicity and/or allowable evidence that you get in criminal trials, so he can really let loose and get justice just by destroying someone's reputation. The problem is whether he can afford to be involved in a civil suit for the length of time it takes to go to trial.

I understand his apprehension. but chances are good that him taking that next step would get other accusers to come forward. if there's an active pedophile out there, Feldman sort of owes it to the other victims to do more than just continually hint at this stuff. one of his best friends is dead because of the aftermath of child predation. Feldman could be a real hero. or he could start looking like someone who pedals conspiracy theories to get another 15 minutes of fame.

He told the police back in 93 when he was protesting Michael's innocence that he was molested by others in the industry, and they didn't give two ****s. They only wanted him to say something about Michael, which is all kinds of disgusting.

So Bryan Singer gets a free pass but Michael Jackson doesn't?

 

[Rodrigo90]

Perhaps, but a grown man hanging out with children for fun is already rather alarming; a grown man continuing to hang out with children after one has already accused him of molesting him is on another level of creepy.

He was too emotionally dedicated to children. It was psychologically impossible for Michael to stop being around them, or at least drop them from his interests.
Lisa-Marie often tried keeping him away from them in their marriage. One time she told a sick girl to go away on the phone who asked to speak to Michael, and he blasted her, saying to never talk to children like that.

He's always been open about the lengths he'd go to help kids, pedophiles don't usually be so open. He never went near them again after 2005, and for good reason. But he still wanted to donate money to hospitals, charities, and open courses that went into helping children and their families.

Murray confirmed he slept with a doll. I think that goes into why he slept with children. It's always been about comfort and security for him, he needed that. Even telling Rabbi Shmuley he wanted to be buried around them. Yes, it's creepy, but more sad above all.

More comic-book movie fans than Michael fans nowadays, so yeah.

I do remember a statement from Corey Feldman about Corey Haim shortly after his passing:

In 2011, Feldman claimed that a "Hollywood mogul" who abused Haim was to blame for his death. The 2013 memoir by Corey Feldman, Coreyography, details the sexual abuse he and Haim suffered as young actors in the film industry; during the filming of Lucas, Feldman stated that Haim "allowed himself to be sodomized," and "had been tricked into engaging in a painful session of anal sex by a man on the movie set. The man told Haim that sex between men and boys was normal in Hollywood, saying that 'all the guys in the entertainment world do it.' After this experience, Haim proposed the idea to Feldman that they should be engaging in that with each other as well. Feldman turned him down, explaining that was not 'just what guys do' and that children should not be having those kinds of interactions with adults."

 

[Rodrigo90]

I hope not.
Schumacher's always come off as a little odd, mind.

Michael was an easy target because he was eccentric.

People are more easily convinced that weird people are devious monsters.

The normal and seemingly well adjusted people must be good natured and innocent.

Such a tragedy. It's possible Haim could've lived a long and happy life if he wasn't raped.

Michael Jackson's glorification and obsession with childhood was abnormal but the real tragedy is how a neurotic yet innocent person might've been wrongly persecuted for being an evil predator when he was just misunderstood.

It says more about the cynicism of our society than anything. A grown man can't obsess about childhood unless he's a rapist.

 

[Warhammer]

Innocent or not (not implying either), it's not "normal". Stay in your lane like everyone else, especially if you are a celebrity (let alone one of the biggest celebrities of all-time).

"Stay in your lane"?

Is that you're way of saying it should be a crime to be different?

The world needs more compassionate and mold breaking eccentrics and fewer thoughtless and selfish drones.

 

[Warhammer]

No, it means that if the majority of people in this country think that a grown man shouldn't just be casually hanging out with children that aren't his, just don't do it. Every single person on these forums adheres to societal norms to varying degrees.

Society has alot of taboos. Maybe we should question and scrutinize these taboos before treating anyone who doesn't adhere to them like criminals.

He shouldn't have put himself in that position.

Michael knew even before Jordan Chandler made the claims to the doctor or the police that Evan was going to say things about him involving paedophilia, but he didn't take it seriously, and shrugged it off as misunderstanding and jealousy.

That's ideal but that's not how the world works. We are all guilty of not following that.

Exactly. As a celebrity, be aware. In the media, what something actually is and what something appears to be can be the same. As fast as the media likes to glorify someone or something, they are even quicker to want to tear it down. That's the price of fame. Stay in your lane.

 

[Rodrigo90]

I agree with that.
