Corey Feldman says he’s working on a plan to bring his Hollywood abusers to justice — but he won’t name names to protect his family.

On Thursday, Feldman — who’s been outspoken for years about alleged abuse he and his late friend and childhood co-star Corey Haim suffered — tweeted, “I will not [be] going on a talk show 2 disclose names of my abuser or [anyone else’s] abusers.” However, he added he’s “working on a plan” that might “shed some [light] on this situation if I can figure out a way 2 get actual justice while not risking my safety & well being. You will know when that time comes! . . . Let me add, this not about fear of being sued! Yes, that’s a real possibility but the bigger reason is safety 4 my family.”

A meteor? Come on. The odds of a meteor hitting Hollywood are about the same as a nuke from North Kore . . . uh, never mind.

The thing with Feldman is, he's got nothing to lose.

Except his life. Pedo rings don't last without burying a lot of bodies.

They say Cory Haim committed suicide, but maybe he didn’t.

Staging suicides is an old way of removing a problem for people in power who want the problem to go away quietly.

If Haim had said he was going public to the wrong individual these Hollywood elites have the kind of money in the petty cash drawer to make such a problem go away.

I have no tolerance for actors who knew what was happening and by whom but never came forward. They are enablers of the behavior and no excuse will I accept when many kids were raped or harassed by men/women Corey speaks of.

No one will start legal proceedings against him unless he names names. Otherwise they’d be saying “Look at me!”

Feldman is still entitled to royalties from his moves and commercials.

He only gets the money if the movies are shown.

Just imagine if the companies that own those movies removed them from circulation.

Feldman would soon be forced in to selling his home and need to find a job as janitor.

Always been a stand up guy, Feldman. Even if he has strange sexual proclivities. At least he’s honest about them.

To protect his family? What are we dealing with, the Mafia?

Not the Mafia, but almost as bad: lawyers.

He has an eleven year old son,whom he does not permit the media to photograph. Think he just trying to protect his family at this point.

Yeah, you don't think people are still watching his films?

Lost Boys, License to Drive, and Goonies are classics. So yes, he is still getting money for nothing.

I bet that Corry family sighed a settlement with the abuser years ago and that Corry would end up owing a fortune he does not have to his abuser if he mentions the name. if you listen to Corry he gives enough info that it narrows it down to one of three director he worked with.

It wasn’t considered a suicide, unless you count the slow suicide of drug abuse. It was ruled pneumonia and his mother was by his side when he died (and no whisper of a Sid Vicious situation that I know of).

It’s way past time for Feldman to put his money where his mouth is. How many dozens of kids have been abused by his molesters in the intervening years, because he can’t man up and name names?

“Yes, the A gays in Hollywood are effectively the mafia - pretty, vicious.”

In Hollyweird?

Try everywhere.

Also, Bubby’s Dad used the casting couch quite a bit.

Uh, that was the point of saying “Just imagine”

If he became enough of an issue they could remove those films from circulation.

Who would notice and of those that noticed who would say anything?

Would the press say anything? I doubt it. They were pretty much dragged in to saying anything about Harvey Weinstein.

If these companies decide not to circulate his films what can be done about it legally?

As for "resurrecting" his Hollywood career - Feldman is still entitled to royalties from his moves and commercials. So it's not like he's hurting for money.

It's not the money. It's the adoration, the celebrity. It's getting invites back to the big parties again, the award ceremonies, the pats on the back, "Good to have you back Corey!" It's being a part of the cool people club, not standing outside looking through the window. It's not being treated like a bad joke.

He had a taste of the good life and he lost it.

And as far as the money goes, I doubt he's sitting on a gold mine. A estimated net worth of $2 million is far from rich in Los Angeles for a 46-year old whose prime earning years are long behind him.

No he isn’t. He’s a victim. Don’t turn him in someone worse than the perp. That is a very nasty thing to do.
