It is in the Daily Mail,so presumably can be said without all the usual hints on threads about Corey Haim.

Michael Egan, sorry.

stressedbeyond123 · 09/11/2017 13:19

I find this whole sorry, sordid mess of Hollywood very uncomfortable at the moment. I can't see how this can be taken further Corey Haim has passed away.
All you seem to be reading about at the moment. Everyone and their aunty is jumping on the bandwagon. I get that there's safety in numbers, but why are they all jumping out of the woodwork now, some of them being 15 years or more after the event. If it had that much of an effect on you, why leave it so long to say something.

Not trying to downplay what anyone has alleged, but obviously the allegations against Charlie Sheen are a lot more than serious, than he tried to kiss me, or touched my knee type of thing....

i just smh at the whole sorry mess, and hope the victims get the justice they desire and deserve!

I think Michael Jackson was trying to protect these boys and that's why they brought him down and went after him so obsessively

That's so unlikely. Haven't you seen the interview of MJ being interviewed with a teenage boy where they're holding hands? The boy says on camera that MJ wanted him to share a bed with him but that he didn't want to. He goes on to say hoe MJ explained to him how when you love someone, that's just what you do and it's all fine so he did sleep in the same bed as MJ. I can't remember the name of the boy but it was a video which supposedly triggered one of the court cases.

Having seen it, if MJ wasn't a paedophile, I'd eat my hat.

stressed because those with power and money wield it and do so ruthlessly.

Thanks Mission - what a sad article.

kiss that's interesting, so CH did talk about it in his lifetime? I wonder why CF denied it at the time only to open up about it later.

WomblingThree · 09/11/2017 13:28

Oh god you’ve done it now @Copperkettles. Wait for the paedo-apologist MJ fans to descend!

Yeah, sure Jan.

HangryHanderson · 09/11/2017 13:31

Kroll also amassed a file on Egan. He was convicted of fraud and his own victims deserve justice (two years is not long given the crimes) but that does not mean his previous allegations should automatically be tarred as a 'shakedown'.
Sadly victims of abuse will not always make what are perceived as 'good' witnesses in court and anything that can be used against them will be.

noeffingidea · 09/11/2017 13:40

x2boys the version I have heard is that CS told him that boys should have sex together in order to get ahead in the film/entertainment industry. He then went off willingly with CS and had sex with him. In fact he was disappointed when CS wouldn't do it again with him.
The inference was that CS was also (or had been in the past) a victim, and also that CF and this third actor were also implicated in that they were bringing boys that they knew in.
I don't know if any of this is true but this does happen in paedophile rings sometimes. Children are manipulated into abusing other children and either used as bait or even actively recruit other victims, presumably so they are unable to report their own abuse without being implicated themselves.
It was also suggested there were links to Jeffrey Epstein who has some extremely powerful friends. Can't say their names on here for obvious reasons.

smashyourglasses · 09/11/2017 13:41

No one's apologizing for Jackson. You'd have been the same people cats-bum mouthing when the two Coreys first piped up years ago. No addressing of the fact that that very family went to journalists to secure a substantial payment before going to police. I guess that's only bizarre to us 'MJ apologists'👌

noeffingidea · 09/11/2017 13:49

You have no fucking idea at all.

Scaredycat3000 · 09/11/2017 13:50

I've read that before, but the Savile/children's homes/pedo rings. This type of abuse is about getting off on power rather than the actual rape. So with a group of victims available the groomer insists on a show/them abusing each other. This is sexually exciting for the abuser and make the victim even more ashamed and often believing they too are abusers so assuring their silence.

Scaredycat3000 · 09/11/2017 13:55

Sorry to qualify This type Large powerful pedo rings.
Haim was an alleged victim of pedo rings as well as individuals.

kissmethere · 09/11/2017 13:59

The program was called "The 2 Corey's" I think. CH had asked CF to come to a therapy session with him and he said it and CF said it wasn't true. That's if my memory serves me right. He didn't name names though.

QuimReaper · 09/11/2017 15:13

kissme is the clip you're thinking of, or one of them? They seem very angry with each other. It's sad.

stopfuckingshoutingatme · 09/11/2017 15:19

I dont think this is a secret OP Hmm it's been inferred to as much

I do find this thread title very unpleasant and given it's someone child that committed suicide .... is it the most sensitive wording ? NO

liz70 · 09/11/2017 15:28

"I do find this thread title very unpleasant"

And I do find that it's rather difficult to use "pleasant" or "sensitive" phraseology when referring to the rape of a child. I also think that whispering and pussyfooting around difficult subjects such as these is a major part of the problem.

scrabbler3 · 09/11/2017 15:35

Agreed, liz70.

kissmethere · 09/11/2017 15:36

Quim, thanks I can't watch it at the moment though but it probably is. Yes they were both angry.

stopfuckingshoutingatme · 09/11/2017 15:40

I am not pussyfooting about
I believe it happened
There is a reason we use the term 'sexual assault' and it's to protect the victims

But I think the OP is putting her righteousness over the feelings of the victims family

They will surely have a google alert or something and if this happened to my child and I saw people using this thread title I do not think I would find it hugely respectful

I find it shocking that expressing a concern for the victims family leads to accusations of trying to cover up a vile crime . I think most people can take an educated guess at what happened to him Angry

liz70 · 09/11/2017 15:43

"accusations of trying to cover up a vile crime"

Nobody here has accused you of that. Confused

Scaredycat3000 · 09/11/2017 16:03

Stop You do realise that the situation is possible in part because many parents of these dc are happy to pimp their own child out, turn a blind eye or are willfully naive? Other parents protect their dc from this exact threat, as Elijah Wood explains in an interview, his DM protected him.
Which do you think the Coreys parents were as their boys were passed around?

MissionItsPossible · 09/11/2017 16:12

quim I have seen that clip before and I don't know if it's just the way I construed it, but CF to me looks guilty at the accusations CH was saying. Does anyone else think this? I don't know if you saw the comment from Scaredycat3000 above but that is exactly what I said on the last thread that got pulled. It could be that CF did things (by force) to CH and that's why he was so defensive and angry because the abused was forced to become an abuser. It could also explain why he didn't outwardly name names. There could be video footage of him raping or abusing other children.

They just seem so lost in that clip. I feel so sorry for them.

kissmethere · 09/11/2017 16:19

(I will get round to watching the clip)
Yes I was utterly shocked when CH said what he said and I remember in other parts of the show how CF was treating him like shit basically and pretty much laughing at him and flaunting his car and house as CH had no where to live. It was heartbreaking.
