8 ‘House of Cards’ employees accuse Kevin Spacey of sexual assault

Eight Netflix employees have accused Kevin Spacey of creating a “toxic” work environment on the set of “House of Cards.”

The employees, who all made the allegations anonymously to CNN, claim the actor targeted young, male staffers with “predatory” behavior including “nonconsensual touching and crude comments.”

One production assistant claimed that he was driving Spacey to the set when the actor put his hands down the assistant’s pants.

“I was in a state of shock,” he told CNN. “He was a man in a very powerful position on the show and I was someone very low on the totem pole and on the food chain there.”

Another crew member claims Spacey routinely touched him without consent.

“He would put his hands on me in weird ways,” the crew member told CNN.

“He would come in and massage my shoulders from behind or put his hands around me or touch my stomach sometimes in weird ways that in normal everyday conversation would not be appropriate.”

Netflix told the outlet that it had sent a representative to the set Monday, but was aware of only one incident five years ago.
