Скачать или смотреть Kevin Spacey accuser's mother in court

(9 Jul 2019) The mother of a man who accused Kevin Spacey of groping him at a Nantucket bar in 2016 says they did not receive a settlement to drop a lawsuit against the actor.
The man voluntarily dismissed the lawsuit last week.
Testifying in Nantucket District Court on Monday his mother, Heather Unruh, said during a hearing in the criminal case against Spacey that there was no settlement in the civil case.
The man's lawyer said earlier that the man dropped the lawsuit because he's on an "emotional rollercoaster'' and wants to focus on the criminal case.
The accuser invoked his Fifth Amendment right not to testify after being questioned by Spacey's lawyer about text messages the defence claims were deleted.
Unruh acknowledged deleting some things from her son's phone but denied deleting anything relevant to the case.  
The Associated Press does not typically name people who say they are the victims of sexual assault unless they identify themselves publicly.
Spacey pleaded not guilty to indecent assault and battery in January.
The man's decision not to testify caused the judge to question the viability of the case against the two-time Oscar winner, whose career collapsed in 2017 amid a string of sexual misconduct allegations.
The judge said he would not immediately dismiss the case, but acknowledged prosecutors would have a tough time bringing it to trial if the man won't testify.
