Hollywood's Sexual Predator Problem Explodes
Townhall.com ^ | May 7, 2014 | Michelle Malkin

Hollywood is sick, sick, sick. Behind its curtain of holier-than-thou progressivism, the entertainment world's top A-list stars have engaged in the most depraved sexual abuse against vulnerable children and teens, according to a growing number of victims. After years of cover-up, the institutional scandal is exploding. Finally.

The latest alleged atrocities involve "X-Men" director Bryan Singer and at least three other power players in the business: veteran television executive Garth Ancier, former Disney executive David Neuman and producer Gary Goddard. Last month, former child actor and model Michael Egan filed civil suits against the men, alleging that they passed around underage boys "like pieces of meat at sex parties" in the late 1990s. Egan's X-rated lawsuit exposes a cabal of alleged predators who plied young boys and teens with hard drugs and alcohol before sexually assaulting them.

Egan was repeatedly molested, raped and beaten from the age of 15, he says, at an infamous gay sex mansion in southern California. The mansion was owned by another of Egan's alleged abusers: scumbag Internet video mogul Marc Collins-Rector. He's a registered sex offender who lured young boys online, drugged and raped them, and reportedly threatened them with a gun if they did not submit.

Collins-Rector was convicted in 2004 of transporting five underage boys across state lines with the intent of raping them. He was allowed to leave the U.S. in 2006 by claiming a "brain tumor," according to The Hollywood Reporter. The (U.K.) Sun reported in 2007 that he was "swanning around Britain in a chauffer-driven limo and surrounding himself with young boys." He can no longer be located, despite supposedly being under police "supervision."

Egan's mother reported the abuse to the FBI and Los Angeles Police Department back in 2000, the family's lawyer, Jeff Herman, says. Nothing was done.

Singer's lawyer calls Egan's suit "absurd" and "defamatory." But the allegations just keep piling up. Singer is now the subject of another lawsuit filed this week by a young British man who alleges Singer's producer pal Gary Goddard groomed him online from the age of 14, raped him at 16 and shared him with Singer after the London premiere of Singer's movie "Superman Returns" in 2006. Internet photos have been circulating for years showing Singer with a parade of young boys and men draped around him.

Egan's claims are especially chilling in light of similarly lurid allegations made 17 years ago on the set of Singer's movie "Apt Pupil." Three underage boys -- ages 14, 16 and 17 -- filed suit claiming Singer and his crew forced them to take off peach-colored G-strings and strip naked in a shower scene for the movie. Authorities investigated. The suit was dismissed. Nothing was done.

"Everyone's ducking for cover," Paul Petersen, a former child actor and child actors' advocate, told Entertainment Weekly in 1997. "It's a complete and total breakdown of the protections Hollywood pretends it accords children."

The same industry that sanctimoniously convenes anti-bullying summits with the Obama White House and falsely accuses conservatives of waging a "war on women" has allowed countless children to be stalked, groomed, beaten, molested and raped on casting couches, in movie trailers, and at drug- and alcohol-drenched parties by Tinseltown predators. The alleged child rape scandal exposed by Egan does not exist in a vacuum:

--Last year, child actor Corey Feldman sounded the alarm on rampant pedophilia in a brave, scathing memoir. He recounted how his best friend and co-star, the late Corey Haim, was sodomized by an older male on the set of their hit film "Lucas." The boys, fed cocaine by a string of predators, attended parties with Hollywood talent manager and child actors' rep Marty Weiss. Now a registered sex offender, Weiss pleaded no contest in 2012 to lewd acts on a child under the age of 14. The victim, another young child actor, alleged Weiss sexually assaulted him between 30 and 40 times from the age of 11.

--Registered sex offender Jason Murphy, a Hollywood casting agent, had kidnapped and molested an 8-year-old boy before joining the industry.

--Boy band impresario Lou Pearlman was a con artist and sleazeball who hosted sleepover parties wearing only a towel and solicited massages from young male singers. "Certain things happened, and it almost destroyed our family," boy band star Nick Carter's mother told Vanity Fair years ago. "I tried to warn everyone."

--Former child actor Todd Bridges, of "Diff'rent Strokes" fame, says he was abused by his agent.

--Former teen pop princess Debbie Gibson has spoken of "older male record executives" who hit on her while she was still underage.

--Despite disturbing and longstanding allegations of molestation and rape, directors Woody Allen and Roman Polanski still enjoy professional acclaim and adoration of their peers.

--Perv fashion photographer Terry Richardson continues to enjoy the support of Lady Gaga, Beyonce, Rihanna and Miley Cyrus despite years of allegations of misogyny, manipulation and sexual misconduct against young models.

If all of these sickos had been Catholic priests, college fraternity members or charter school teachers, we wouldn't have heard the end of it. Perhaps the social justice awareness-raisers in the Hollywood left should take a break from pointing fingers at everyone else -- and put a stop to the monsters in their own midst.

Very much like the parents who allowed their kids to go to Michael Jackson’s Neverland ranch and actually sleep in Jackson’s bed. Either they naively believed nothing would happen to their children, or (more likely) they’re so star-struck themselves, they simply don’t care what happens to their children so long as they (the parents) get to rub elbows with celebrities.

Sickening.

The longer this has gone on, the greater the scope became.
Now they can’t keep a lid on it.
This will unravel like the British parliament.

If you believe homosexuality is a healthy lifestyle, you must believe Benghazi was caused by a video.

or...as scary as it might be.....were ready for that big out of court settlement that some got...
Is it possible they knew what would happen and allowed their children to be abused for a big payday????

As this all comes out it will come to light that not all the victims are male and not all the predators are male either.

The booze, cocaine, and other drugs will be pretty ubiquitous.

Excellent post. Keep pounding this story. First and foremost to get justice for the victims of these monsters. But this also has the potential of blowing up a key part of the communist/democrat coalition.

worse than homosexuality....pedophilia! 2 sad old faggots who do what they do in private is not the same as abusing children whether homo or hetero( think Roman Polanski, an child rapist and abused young girls like Judy Garland)

You mean people like Smiley and Lady Gag me are not normal? I thought they were what Hollyweird is trying to portray in shows and movies.

You are absolutely correct. The parents of these children are complacent with the depravity. They are so enthralled by celebrity worship and greed, they allow their children to be debased. This of course does not excuse the lowlifes that abuse the children.

A suitcase nuke, set-off in Hollywood, would be a good beginning.

While in the employment of the ‘Big Rat’, I often heard the cafeteria talk of gay entertainers lamenting their being passed around like snack trays. All employees working in the public eye have to re-audition for their jobs every six months, even waiters and janitors. So, unlike the usual schmucks who only put out once to get a job, these gays have to re-offer themselves on the casting couch every 180 days.

I think Lady Gaga is just a smart business woman who claims to love the homos for lots and lots of record sales after learning about her background and her upbringing (she was an A student and studied fashion and theatrics in college; in addition she was a real nerd growing up). I’m not so sure she loves them theway she says she does. Ask Kelly Osbourne. They’ve had quite a few tiffs about this very matter. It may be aways own the road but I think Gaga will go clean later. Just my personal opinion.

When I did theater, I was propositioned by a guy. It was just part of the scene.

In the old days, Hollyweird celebs could have their careers destroyed by allegations of sexual impropriety...think Fatty Arbuckle (who was found not guilty of the crime he was alleged to have committed) and Charlie Chaplin who had to leave the country. So did Roman Polanski. Times are different. Now Polanski is treated as some kind of artistic hero, and we have any kind of perversion permitted.
