Actor Kevin Spacey has been found not guilty of allegations of sexual harassment. This decision was issued by the jury at the latest hearing in New York, United States on Thursday, October 20.
Anthony Rapp reported that the jury stated their decision. They concluded that Rapp could not prove that he sexually harassed Kevin Spacey in 1986.
After the verdict took place, Kevin Spacey immediately hugged his attorney in the courtroom. This is one of the cases of sexual harassment that dragged the name of the actor.
"We thank the judges for seeing these false accusations," said Jennifer Keller, Kevin Spacey's attorney after the trial.

"I am grateful for the opportunity for my case to be heard, and I thank the jury," wrote Anthony Rapp, launching NME.
"Taking these demands always about seeking light as a form of campaign to stand up against all forms of sexual violence," he continued.
Anthony Rapp sued Kevin Spacey for sexual harassment in 1986. Rapp, who is still 14 years old, admitted to being harassed by 26-year-old Spacey.
