'X-Men' director Bryan Singer accused of sexually abusing 15-year-old boy at California mansion

Famous Hollywood director Bryan Singer has been accused in a new federal lawsuit of sexually abusing a 15-year-old boy.

The suit, filed Wednesday in federal court in Hawaii, accused the 48-year-old “X-Men” filmmaker of first preying on the 15-year-old aspiring actor at a party at a California mansion where underage boys were plied with drugs and alcohol and taken advantage of.

“The stories that I’ve heard of what went on at the estate are truly despicable,” the accuser’s lawyer, Miami attorney Jeff Herman, told the Daily News Wednesday night.

Herman identified the accuser as Michael Egan III. Egan, who is now in his 30s and will appear at a Thursday news conference at the Four Seasons Hotel in L.A., was forcibly sodomized by the director when he was 15 in the late-1990s, according to the suit. Singer had promised Egan a role in one of his movies and had numerous sexual encounters with the boy when he was 15 and 16, Herman told The News. Singer also allegedly brought Egan to Hawaii for multiple extended trips when he was 17.

Why do accusations like these often come out many years after the fact?

I would guess because abused kids are ashamed of what happened and want to forget about it, but eventually find that they can't.

MONEY? A charge easy to make and if one can sob at the appropriate time one can make a fortune.

Also they don't want to wind up sleeping with the fishes.

That's what happens to anyone who dares to threaten a powerful pedophile ring.

Because there is a huge amount of shame involved and fear.

I can't imagine being raped as a teenager, then having to tell my parents, especially if I was a male. Teenagers go through enough emotional ups and downs, can't imagine having to deal with that too.

Surprised? Not particularly.

But Singer has a movie coming out and there's no such thing as bad PR. Timing on this is fascinating.

X-Men were a rip-off of DC’s Doom Patrol.

The (gay) actor who plays Magneto (and Gandalf) has said that he delights in teenaged boys running up to him at fandom conventions.

Child actors are drugged then raped. That’s why many can’t live after they grow up.

Because kids can’t get help, thats why they are singled out. They only seek to have things set right when PTSD becomes acute later in life.
