In an interview, Judy Haim says she believes Feldmans documentary fundraising and appearance on NBC's 'Today' show, is a distraction from his recent drug arrest just part of a long con.
Actor Corey Feldman who announced a $10 million fundraising campaign on Oct. 25 for a purported documentary meant to expose Hollywood pedophilia will be kicking off a national TV tour on Monday with back-to-back sit-downs on NBCs Today show with Matt Lauer and Megyn Kelly.
Spurred by a new spotlight on the intersection of sexual assault and power in the wake of the Harvey Weinstein allegations, Feldman, 46, already has brought in more than $140,000 from over 3,000 backers. Hes been assisted by an emotional YouTube promotional video in which he discusses his wish to finally identify entertainment industry predators while explaining how his public comments on the subject in recent years have hurt his professional and personal life.
Feldmans would-be whistleblowing isnt sitting well, however, with Judy Haim. The mother of late actor Corey Haim Feldmans starring cast mate in a slew of 1980s films and, according to his 2013 memoir Coreyography, a fellow sex abuse victim during their Hollywood youth believes its a bogus exercise.
Hes been talking about revealing the names of his and other abusers for seven years, since my son died, says Judy, who has tangled with Feldman in the past about his contention that Haim, who died in 2010 at 38 of pneumonia, was repeatedly abused as a child by multiple individuals. (Shes convinced that a molestation incident involving her son occurred on a single occasion, at the hands of one man.)

I believe Corey, but I also believe he is scamming.
That’s funny, Mrs. Haim...
Robert Downey Jr. says the SAME thing as Feldman.
Is he just a scam artist too?
Exactly....
I wonder if shes a Scientologist?
Yes, that's a very interesting phenomenon.
I blame the legal system for that.
Maybe. Polanski was convicted. It's not "the legal system's" fault that he's out of the country. I think the audience that still supports Allen and Polanski would do so regardless of their being convicted and jailed. They still support Moumia abu Jamal (Wesley Cook), the convicted cop killer, after all these decades.
