'This is a place where adults have more direct and inappropriate connection with children than probably anywhere else in the world,' claimed former child actor Corey Feldman.
Last week, former child actor Corey Feldman (Stand by Me, The Goonies) tweeted that he'd been asked for a statement about Harvey Weinsteins sexual-harassment and rape allegations. It makes sense, since he has spent years speaking out about sexual abuse in Hollywood-not of women, but of young men. He has long alleged that pedophilia is the worst problem in Hollywood and that it's in part responsible for his best friend Corey Haim's eventual death by drug overdose.
Speaking to The Hollywood Reporter in 2016, Feldman said: "[Haim] had more direct abuse than I did. With me, there were some molestations, and it did come from several hands, so to speak, but with Corey, his was direct rape, whereas mine was not actual rape. And his also occurred when he was 11. My son is 11 now, and I can't even begin to fathom the idea of something like that happening to him. It would destroy his whole being. As I look at my son, a sweet, innocent, 11-year-old boy and then try to put him in Corey Haim's shoes, I go, 'Oh my God-well of course he was erratic and not well-behaved on sets and things like that.' What more could we expect of him really?"

Libtards are such nice people ... !
Hollyweird is a liberal cesspool.
The young under aged are the actual loosers.
What’s so sad is this has been known for YEARS - yet nothing was ever done.
Shows the power of Hollywood, doesn’t it?
WHO RAPED HIM COREY? Name NAMES or shut your mouth!
NAME the PEDOPHILES! You know who they are!
The fact is, Harvey's "victims" are all adult women, not children, and the fact that they're only coming forward years later for a publicity stunt means that many if not most of them willingly sold themselves to him to boost their careers. Child actors never made that casting couch choice because they couldn't.
I love these Hollywood affairs where all these complainants are dressed like wealthy sluts.
If the NFL was full of dry tinder, then Hollywood is a dynamite factory
Too bad Trump couldn’t have thrown a match to it as well
I’m surprised Feldman hasn’t accidentally shot himself in the back of the head 3 times yet.
WATCH: An Open Secret.
eye opening, foreboding, heartbreaking.

There were rumors of of young actor who eventually went on to Star in Top Gun and Edge of Tomorrow... aka Tom Cruise.
I don’t think I’ll ever go to the movies again...
Adult seduction of children, who then are groomed to think they wanted it, is a LIE!
Whether or not they physically fought back, they were still raped, as kids do not have the emotional skills to handle sex with powerful, manipulative adults in their world.
I just watched Corey in Gremlins. He was so cute. Because of my own experiences, I always thought Hollywood was heterosexual harassment, not homo. I thought only NYC show biz was gay. Wrongo!
Is Weinstein an unsavory character? Sure. Is he worse than the typical Hollywood mogul? Probably not, in fact he's probably at the tamer and less perverted end of the spectrum.
Casting couch stories that are no different from what Weinstein was doing have been floating around Hollywood since the early 20’s.
Not to defend him, but that’s nine decades of young women eagerly willing to play along.
You make some good points. I just think the corruption in Hollywood is a lot worse than you do, and I believe someone as depraved as Weinstein appears to be would use his power in order to get his rocks off with anyone, including girls under the age of 18.
And where are all the criminal complaints?
