Kevin Spacey was found not liable in a civil sexual misconduct trial Thursday following more than an hour of deliberations by a jury in a New York courtroom.
Jurors reached the verdict shortly before 4 p.m. in the civil lawsuit filed against actor Kevin Spacey.
The former “House of Cards” actor is accused of assault, battery and emotional distress stemming from an incident against Anthony Rapp in 1986 when he was 14 years old.
Rapp initially made the accusations against Spacey in a Buzzfeed interview five years ago, to which Spacey issued a statement saying he didn’t remember the encounter, but also apologized for the incident.
When Rapp, a star on Broadway, filed the lawsuit against Spacey in 2017, the “American Beauty” actor denied the accusations.
