The civil trial began in New York for a lawsuit filed against Kevin Spacey, famous for the TV series ‘House of cards’.
The plaintiff is accused of committing sexual offenses against his colleague Antonio Rapp in 1986, when he was 14 and Spacey was 26. However, at all times he pleaded not guilty and it seems that this would also have been his position in the trial.
