Kevin Spacey faces charge in sexual assault of teenager

Boston • Kevin Spacey is scheduled to be arraigned next month on allegations he sexually assaulted the teenage son of a Boston television anchor in a restaurant, a Massachusetts prosecutor said Monday.

The Academy Award-winning actor, 59, is due in Nantucket District Court on Jan. 7 to face a charge of indecent assault and battery, Cape and Islands District Attorney Michael O'Keefe said.

A criminal complaint was issued by a clerk magistrate at a hearing Thursday, he said.

Shortly after the charge became public, Spacey posted a video on YouTube titled "Let Me Be Frank" and tweeted a link to it, breaking a public silence of more than a year.
