against him. The accusers, who have provided graphic testimony in the courtroom this week, cannot be named publicly under British law.
Patrick Gibbs, Spacey's attorney, told the 12-person jury that the actor had come back to Britain to rebut the allegations by explaining"what actually happened." "What has been reimagined with a sinister spin? What has been made up or twisted?" Spacey's lawyer asked the court.
The accuser described Spacey as a"slippery, snaky, difficult person" who had initially made him uncomfortable by questioning his sexuality, before later becoming"touchy feely" and aggressively groping him when the two were alone together. "I can't stand watching the man. It makes me feel sick," the man said in a video clip of his interview with police that was played in the court.On one occasion, the accuser said Spacey had grabbed his genitals while he was driving the actor to a party hosted by singer Elton John in 2004.
The man rejected insinuations by defense counsel Patrick Gibbs that he had in fact been flirtatious towards Spacey. The man said he was looking for a coat to wear outside to smoke when he accidentally let Spacey's dog out. After getting the dog back into the room, he said he"turned around and Kevin was about five yards away from me."
