Anthony Rapp Takes The Stand In His Sexual Misconduct Lawsuit Against Kevin Spacey
deadline.comActor Anthony Rapp began testifying today in his sexual misconduct lawsuit against Kevin Spacey, with initial questioning covering only his upbringing in the Chicago suburbs before the court took a lunch recess.
