Kevin Spacey pleads not guilty after appearing in UK court for five sexual assault charges

 The actor has pleaded not guilty to all five charges of sexual assault.

Kevin Spacey has appeared in court in London on Thursday charged with a string of sex attacks dating back 17 years. The Oscar-winning actor allegedly assaulted three men in London and Gloucestershire and is charged with four counts of sexual assault and one other sex offence. He has denied all allegations against him. All the counts were allegedly carried out between 2005 and 2013 on men who are now aged in their 30s and 40s. Four of the charges were said to have taken place in London and one was in Gloucestershire. The 62-year-old arrived at the Old Bailey wearing a blue suit and spotty tie. At his last court appearance, last month, the House of Cards star was granted unconditional bail. The Met police launched an investigation in 2017 and Spacey was later interviewed under caution two years later. He wasn't arrested but spoke to officers about a number of allegations.
