Groping case against Kevin Spacey dropped
By ALANNA DURKIN
RICHER
Associated Press
BOSTON — Prosecu-
tors dropped a case Wednes-
day accusing Kevin Spacey
of groping a young man at a
resort island bar in 2016 after
the accuser refused to testify
about a missing cellphone the
defense says contains infor-
mation supporting the actor’s
claims of innocence.
Spacey was charged with
indecent assault and battery
last year in the only criminal
case that has been brought
against the actor since his
career collapsed amid a slew
of sexual misconduct allega-
tions. The two-time Oscar
winner was among the ear-
liest and biggest names to
be ensnared in the #MeToo
movement against sexual
assault and harassment that
swept across the entertain-
ment and other industries.
Spacey denies groping the
man, whose mother first went
public with the allegations in
2017.
A phone message seeking
comment was left with Spac-
ey’s lawyer.
The actor’s accuser was
ordered to take the stand
earlier this month after he
said he lost the cellphone he
used the night of the alleged
groping. The defense said it
needed the phone to recover
deleted text messages it says
would help Spacey’s case.
The man denied deleting
messages or manipulating
screenshots of conversations
he provided to investigators.
But when he was pressed by
the defense about whether
he knew that altering evi-
dence is a crime, he invoked
his Fifth Amendment right
against self-incrimination,
and the judge said his testi-
mony would be stricken from
the record.
The judge then ques-
tioned how prosecutors
would be able to bring
Spacey to trial if the accuser
continued to refuse to tes-
tify, and prosecutors told the
judge they needed time to

pretrial hearing at district court in Nantucket, Mass.
decide how to proceed.
On Wednesday, Cape
and Island District Attor-
ney Michael O’Keefe said
in court documents that they
were dropping the charge
“due to an unavailability of
the complaining witness.”
Prosecutors said in an
emailed statement that they
met with the man and his
lawyer Sunday and told him
that if he wouldn’t testify in
further proceedings, they
couldn’t move forward with
the case. The man “elected
not to waive his right under
the Fifth Amendment,” pros-
ecutors said.
Prosecutors said they
could further pursue the case
and grant the accuser immu-
nity but then they would need
more than his uncorrobo-
rated testimony.
Furthermore, “a grant of
immunity compromises the
witness to a degree which, in
a case where the credibility
of the witness is paramount,
makes the further prosecu-
tion untenable,” they said.
Mitchell Garabedian, a
lawyer for the accuser, said
in email that the man and
his family “have shown an
enormous amount of cour-
age under difficult circum-
stances.” Garabedian said he
had no further comment.
The hearing at which
the accuser testified came
days after the man abruptly
dropped a lawsuit he had
just recently filed against the
actor that sought damages
for “severe and permanent
mental distress and emo-
tional injuries.” The suit was
dismissed “with prejudice,”
meaning it cannot be refiled.
The man did not receive
a settlement to drop the civil
case, his mother said. His
lawyer said he dropped it
because he was emotionally
overwhelmed and wanted
only “one roller coaster ride
at a time” and so chose to
focus on the criminal case.
The man’s mother, former
Boston TV anchor Heather
Unruh, alleged in 2017 that
Spacey got her son drunk and
sexually assaulted him at the
Club Car, a bar on Nantucket
where the teen worked as a
busboy.
The man told police he
went over to talk to Spacey
after his shift because he
wanted to get a picture with
the former “House of Cards”
star. He said Spacey bought
him several drinks and tried
to persuade him to come
home with him before unzip-
ping the man’s pants and
groping him for about three
minutes.
Unruh’s son told police
he tried to move Spacey’s
hands, but the groping con-
tinued, and he didn’t know
what to do because he didn’t
want to get in trouble for
drinking because he was
underage. The man said he
fled when Spacey went to the
bathroom.
Shortly after Spacey was
charged, he posted a video
on YouTube in the voice of
his “House of Cards” char-
acter who was killed off
after the sexual misconduct
allegations emerged, saying
“I’m certainly not going to
pay the price for the thing I
didn’t do.”
Spacey has faced several
other accusations.
His first accuser, actor
Anthony Rapp, said Spacey
climbed on top of him on a
bed when Rapp was 14 and
Spacey 26. Spacey said he
did not remember such an
encounter but apologized if
the allegations were true.
The Associated Press
does not typically name peo-
ple who say they are the vic-
tims of sexual assault unless
they identify themselves
publicly. Rapp has; Unruh’s
son has not.
