Speaking after the jury at Southwark crown court found him not guilty of sexually assaulting four men, the 64-year-old said he was 'humbled' by the outcome of the trial and that he had 'a lot to process'. The jurors, who were given a majority direction by the judge, reached a verdict after 12 hours and 26 minutes of deliberation.

![All Kevin Spacey Scenes in Call of Duty Advanced Warfare [4K]](/img/1.gif)
Wow - Kevin Spacey innocent. Just shows how we should let courts decide and not have trial by media. Poor man having to see everything he worked for crumble and be destroyed. I really hope he can now get his life back.
👏👏👏👏👏💯
Two words Dan Wooton.
Today is his 64th birthday, too ... nice present. ☮️
Specifically we need TRIAL BY JURY. Some politicians want to do away with this for their own purposes.
3 of his 4 accusers died in a span of a year one a month before testifying in court
Weird 🤔
So many wasted years and so much stress due to lying and deceitful people.
He deserved this justice but hopefully there is more to come and he can fully get his life and career back.
AHAHAHAHAHAHA
Say what you want about Kevin Spacey, but at least he slows down in school zones.
😂
@@Hastur876you get out of the car though, right? Hide behind some bushes, right? Am I close?..
@@Hastur876lmfaooooo
I didn’t even know he was found innocent.
Press has been real quiet on this one.
Yeah, the press is always quiet when an innocent verdict is reached…
This case was another example of H@m@s trying to get rich quick by means of falsely accusing another innocent man.
You are watching this on the press...
Press was a direct part of the witch hunt against Kevin Spacey.
Mate i only found out about this because of the piers morgan interview. Man deserves a break @lCreepersRevengel
I didn't find out from the press. I found out from Piers Morgan@@lCreepersRevengel
I always believed he was innocent. Such a great talented actor and it's so unfair his reputation was tarnished. I hope he gets back to his acting because he is simply wonderful in all his roles.
Sounds like you were just hoping he'd be innocent because you love his acting so much. Because of people like you, other people can't get a free trial in this country against celebrities
I'm afraid Antnj81 is right.
@@Antnj81 or he flew to the UK to face his accusers when he did not have too..does not sound like a guilty man an the courts have proved it
@@simoncox9689 no
Really? Innocent?
Can he legally via the courts go after his accusers? After all, his accusers came up empty and they did their best to damage, destroy this man. He should have legal recourse to protect himself.
You clearly know nothing about how the legal system works.
3 of his 4 accusers were died before they could testify in court……..
you can file for damages…
@dootie8285he absolutely can sue civilly but he has a high burden. Remember, he was NOT proven guilty therefore he is INNOCENT of all charges.
If the accusers where women would you think the same?
Always said he was innocent, disgusting what they did to him, and House Of Cards 6 was terrible, we want Kevin back in the business!
Nobody lied you chongo. They only didn’t have enough evidences to condem him. It doesn’t mean he didn’t do it.
@@intothedragon- *Exactly!!!*
Everything after House of cards 1 was terrible
Everybody claims innocence even being sentenced
@@intothedragon And it means he didn't do it too genius.
Bravo. The witch-hunt is over. The people leading the witch-hunt clearly recruited those gold-diggers
I am not sure it's over - American media seem very reluctant to report it. We will see how Hollywood will treat him...
The people leading all mysteriously, permanently disappeared, before testifying.
His best friend, Ghislaine Maxwell, also had similar witch-hunt feelings.
@@imaginary-unit Nope, that was only a very limited crowd. One potential motive for suicide is a guilty conscience, and that's what that limited crowd more than likely had. They were manipulated into making the false allegations.
@@keineahnung3937 We already knew from how they treated Johnny Depp!
exactly what were these "gold diggers" stand to gain?
are you telling me they ruined house of cards for nothing...?
They probably ruined one of the best actors for nothing
Acquitted =/= not guilty, it means not enough evidence to be found guilty.
It is entirely possible the events still happened. To say "for nothing" is to vastly misunderstand our legal system
@@StabbyJoe135 NOT GUILTY.
@@StabbyJoe135 acquit
/əˈkwɪt/
verb
past tense: acquitted; past participle: acquitted
1.
free (someone) from a criminal charge by a verdict of NOT GUILTY.
"she was acquitted on all counts"
yes
This whole thing of GUILTY until PROVEN INNOCENT has come from the United States. And now it's everywhere. People resigning, or apologising or being cut, or cancelled BEFORE anyone knows the truth. Careers ended. It must stop. It ruins lives
That concept certainly existed prior to the USA.
@@fiscalcpiano It's something deeply rooted in our beings as animals, humans - we are not a peaceful species.
Most of the stuff online are owned by us companies so it's obvious their ideologies would be the most spread by the internet
Private companies aren’t going to hire this dude again. Even if they didn’t meet the burden of proof required in their charges, it’s pretty obvious the dude is a creep. What do you want? To force private companies to work with this liability? That’s injustice
Hope the companies that canceled him learn a huge lesson here.
Nope they don’t care he won’t work in Hollywood never again. He is a big liability!
lol, the dude is obviously a creep even if they didn’t meet the burden of proof required
This was all about $. Willing to bet my mortgage that these ‘victims’ put forward this stuff quite simply because they had $$ for eyes.
££, but right.
So why is it that every rich man is sued for assault ?
Hmmm wonder why
This one was sued by men though
@@joewhitehead3that makes no difference at all.
@@orphanoforbit7588 Kinda does considering men are less likely than women to come forward about having been sexually abused
Give this man House of Cards back for a season we all deserve.
Kevin Spacey currently limping away from court before breaking into a stride...
I see what you did there....
🤦🏾🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🤣
And like that he was gone.
I also see what you did there…😂😂😂😂😂
Hope he makes movies again. Evil people out there. I hate those accusers!
HOLD ON, ARE YOU SUGGESTING THAT KEVIN SPACEY IS ACTUALLY INNOCENT? IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE SAYING?!
@@tarikkash4282 Hold On, are you saying you're better than judge ,Jury and all who had investigate this case? do you have any evidance your self?
@@tarikkash4282 Most certainly yes
@@tarikkash4282 You strike me as an Amber Heard supporter.
Two words Dan Wooton.
I can't imagine all of the wasted years...
I never believed all of the allegations made on him.
I hope he can get his career back and wishing him all the best in the future and truly can't wait to see him on big screen again!
He's literally best friends with, Ghislaine Maxwell.
Keep hoping!
@@imaginary-unitI heard you were besties with Jeffrey Epstein. Care to explain yourself??
You think all 30+ of his accusers were lying? I hope you said the same thing about Deshaun Watson
He was found not guilty. Bro stop coping😊@@Sickwitit18
@@Sickwitit18 Reading this comment a second time after I already replied to you saying the same thing in another one, I find this very interesting. On one hand you have a point, but on the other hand what happens if I pay 30 people to declare you robbed a bank? By your own logic you'd be going right to jail
I hope he makes it back - great actor.
If he was a woman yall would be crying about how they never take male assault seriously
True
so true.... so sick of all these ppl defending him
I'm deeply sorry that you were proven innocent when everything you've worked so hard for has been destroyed - your reputation, your art, your work. I can't imagine the stress you've gone through due to people's intolerance and their readiness to throw you under the bus when those allegations came in. More power to you, Kevin Spacey.
You think all 30+ of his accusers were lying? I hope you said the same thing about Deshaun Watson
@@Sickwitit18you must really like repeating your comments.
@@Jase583 just like to make sure everyone has a chance to see it lol
Why is isnhard yo believe 30 people can lie? Is the a limit of the amount of liars in the world?
@@TheSealOfTheRose they were from all different times and different situations, and to different levels. Idk. You're right they can, they did lie against Deshaun Watson so it's def possible
3 of his 4 accusers died
What a lucky coincidence
Except that's just not true? Their was more that just four accusers, how did this trial happen with 9 charges possibly happen if that's the case?
@@epiclamp44 a literal 1 minute google will prove you wrong
@@epiclamp44 and the lack of response shows that you have realised the truth
@@epiclamp44 silence
yeah you should be the one of 3
Turns out Anthony Rapp is actually Anthony Capp
So, what happens to the people who conspired to ruin another person's life?
Nothing because such people do not exist in this case. His list of victims goes well beyond these 4 individuals. More will come forward. this was a travesty of justice.
@@C12341people forget about how crazy and coincidental that is. Remember that creepy Christmas commercial he released when the allegations first came out.
We clearly need laws that protect people from being punished for unproven allegations. It's total and complete b.s. how mere accusations can destroy someone's life.
The accusers all were killed or comitted suicide mysteriously before court
This isn't the case you want to build that on
@@kaneqost Accusers were not needed after as evidence spoke facts about his innocence!
It was such a mis- justice to Kevin Spacey that he was ever charged in the first place. Will Netflix now admit their mistake and reinstate him and repay what they took from him. They should if there is any justice in this world.
Hear, Hear! Although his career may never recover, he can at least take solace in this Second Set of Not Guilty charges.
So sorry you were put through this. I wish people would not lie and cause the great harm you were subjected to based on false allegations.
i feel bad for his victims.
I feel bad for your brain
@@octoman511 at least i have one.
Nobody lied you chongo. They only didn’t have enough evidences to condem him. It doesn’t mean he didn’t do it.

One of the greatest actors of today x
Greatest friends with, Ghislaine Maxwell.
The accuser should go to jail. Unbeilevable to be allowed to destroy people's life like that and not face any consequences !
Another reason not to go for accusations only. Thank you mainstream media for your fair reporting..... what a mess is this.
he`s still guilty though.
@@cinnamon8884how so?
@@Sailormoonc3038 Because he's left a trail of victims behind him as long as your arm. There's a reason he had to leave the US. This isn't over, the truth cannot be hidden forever. This is a travesty of justice.

You are very wrong. That’s not how the studios work. He won’t be hired again he is a big liability and studios don’t like that. It’s bad for business.
Everyone in every comment of social media now “knew he was innocent” , but everyone on social media was saying the total opposite seven years ago.
I never believed him to be innocent.
I wonder if anyone else from the me too thing will be able to come back. I miss Tavis Smiley
@@swhiting100belief is not fact just like religion 😂
Great actor, no matter what happens, I'll keep my fingers crossed for him. I can't imagine movies without him.
No matter what?
What an oddly disturbing statement. I hope your "friends and family" know about you.
It just shows you the Cowardly Tendencies of Netflix, they did the same thing with Johnny Depp
All the men making the Allegations mysteriously all wound up dead so it makes sense why he was proven innocent.
Hope they ruin the accusers lives for this. Ruined his life and legacy for $. Twisted world.
I am shocked he was not found guilty. So many boys came forward with accusations. Smh
I completely agree. He has left a trail of victims behind him. This ruling is an absolute disgrace and a travesty of justice.
So many of the comments here make me feel sick, all celebrating the outcome of this and calling him a great actor. My thoughts are with the countless victims who have been completely let down by the justice system. It's shameful and disgusting.
@@Fractalchemysticalhave you ever thought the victims made it up for money???
@@steventalik4782 I doubt he thought of this. Lol
@@Fractalchemystical Nothing proves that the "victims" were indeed victims. Yet another internet judge not qualified to be a judge irl.
I don’t know what to think. His accusers were proven to be liars but I’ve seen a lot of his costars on interviews talking about how weird he was around attractive men. There’s no smoke without fire but at the same time his lying accusers should also face charges.
Hollywood its a dark place to work and live ...
He was found not guilty or have you been reading the Fall of Cabal for the 20th time??? Go ask Q... no dont his predictions never come true ..... Saddo
Hollywood encourages people to do wrong, for example, they applauded Will Smith for slapping Chris Rock, with the exception of people like Wanda Sykes, Jim Carrey, etc!
We need more movies from you Kevin🥰
Bravo Kevin! Always knew you were innocent! So sorry you were put through this. Much love!
Strange how his accusers all died
except Anthony Rapp
smoking that pack
Just because a court says he innocent doesn’t make it true.
But there’s no proof that he’s otherwise guilty. It’s a pretty high standard to operate under a presumption of guilt AND refuse to believe the accuracy of a jury of peers once they conclude a lack of guilt
So happy that he can return to his life. What a wonderful birthday present. Justice prevails!
3 of his 4 accusers died in a year before they were going to testify
Yes you are absolutely right, justice has been done today....I wish Mr Spacey a very happy birthday 🎈 🎂 too, however I think he will be just too exhausted to have his Birthday tonight....🫂
The right decision. Now back to work, Kevin.
What they have done to Kevin Spacey is entirely wrong!! I'm glad the TRUTH is coming out now and that we can get him back with the Love and Respect he deserves.
What about the love and respect for all the accusers who mysteriously, permanently disappeared, before testifying.
Is it the same love and respect for his best friend, Ghislaine Maxwell?
you realise the jury found him not guilty, it has to be unanimous as well. Chances are he is innocent, unless you think all 12 of the jury are lying.@@imaginary-unit
Can he sue those money boys (old geesers now) for jumping into the bandwagon to destroying someone’s life?
I mean, he is rich, I wouldn't call him destroyed. Plus he is risking that his case would fail and that would mean that he is not innocent for 100%, just it's difficult to prove was he guilty or not.
He can, but Guilty or not, often it is too much emotional stress to go though a court process.
@@erikals Stress for rich actor?
@@MIloszKluskiHe said emotional stress ... we all feel that, rich or poor
@@txtworld Why would he be under emotional stress if he's innocent, huh?
He's acting innocent, it's some of his best work...
😂
He’d be in jail if he had to use the public defender. Innocent or not.
@chrisdebenedetto860 that's a fact 💯
Real life Jonothan Irons 😂😂😂
Hope they will start showing his movies again.
MISCARRIAGE OF JUSTICE.
Evidence?
Doesn't help for the fact that not a lot of people speak highly of Kevin Spacey outside of his acting profession.
"What you're seeing is advanced warfare." - Kevin Spacey, 2014
Let this be an example to all those who think they know Brand is guilty.
In any civilised society it is for the courts and not social media to decide
Brand kinda did it to himself though either way ,I'm not saying he has/hasn't.
This man is a legend. I think he is stronger now than ever. Can’t wait to see his future work!
It won't be the same. People will still see him differently. Like when OJ was acquitted.
Legendary best friends with, Ghislaine Maxwell.
Too bad no one will see all the accusers' future work after mysteriously, permanently disappearing, before they could testify.

@@justforfunlol2258 You bet.
Yeah he is stronger now knowing he can get away with this stuff
Congrats Kevin!! We're waiting for a comeback really soon!
Can we get a reboot of season 6 now?
He’s been through allot, mental stress e.t.c
People in his position, need to be compensated. His career was recked.
damage is done already.
'Innocent until proven guilty', folks.
I feel bad for Kevin. Anyone can say anything about a celebrity. It is always he said she said. So frightening. LQTBQ pushes light blue and pink for liking little boys and girls. Those who live in glass houses should not throw stones.
Accusers should now be given his sentence
Can he sue back for defamation?
Surely he now has the right to put the CPS and the Police in court for compensation for damage to his reputation
Kevin Spacey needs to be reinstated in everything and payed back every thing
There are sick and powerful people just like him who are protecting him even some of his accusers have came up dead smh
Agree. He's definitely guilty in my eyes. I've seen enough travesties of justice to know that this court ruling doesn't mean the truth was arrived at here. If 4 separate people all accused me of the same thing, I'm sure a jury would find me guilty, but then I haven't appeared in a load of Hollywood movies and can't afford the best lawyers that money can buy, unlike Kevin Spacey. It's so obvious he's guilty this just makes me sick.
So now ,what happened now to the people who destroyed his reputation
Being acquitted or found not guilty does NOT mean he ain’t do what he’s being accused of. Just means there wasn’t enough evidence to convict. A lot of y’all need to understand the difference.
i do not see the difference really he is not guilty so in our justice is blind system he did not do it.
In the eyes of the law he didn't do what he was accused of. You are free to believe whatever you like.
It also doesn’t mean he did it and indicates it is likely he didn’t. You want to cast shade on someone without evidence?
I agree!!
His accusers are dead so it was easy to find him not guilty.
We want Spacey back in House Of Cards
He should counter sue all the accuser
Can we now have a remake of the last season of House of cards?
No unfortunately he won'
Won't*
Kevin Spacey is one of the most talented people Hollywood has ever known.
And word on the street, one of the most evil.
im an old man so im not up on the way things go nowadays but it seems to me some people tell lies and ruin people's reputations when these lies are proven false they walk away surely this is not right the law should not be used like this
Your a wise old man Sir, I agree with you whole heartedly. 🇦🇺🦘
Is it awfully bold to assume they're all lies when all the accusers mysteriously, permanently disappeared, before testifying?
They unfortunately all won't grow up to be as old and wise as you.
Do you think his best friend, Ghislaine Maxwell, will age as wisely?
I absolutely love this man. I wish he sees our comments so that he knows he'll never be hated or forgotten.
This guy career was destroyed, and him being not guilty is not a big news
There needs to be a formal apology to this man get this man a job.
I miss Kevin Spacey, bring him back

I wish he could be the president in 2024.

Not guilty of assault, just a wierd creep that nobody likes
Hope hes innocent for real tho
Indeed.
Was he actually proven innocent though....or was it simply that they didn't have enough evidence to prove him guilty?
Just because the internet people say he's innocent or guilty doesn't make him so...
But then neither does a court system in all cases.....
He's a creep for sure. He admitted it himself

Rooting is not a word I would have used under the circumstances lol.
Congratulations, justice's been done. Kevin Spacey's a great actor, certainly a great man who for having money was caught in the net of outlaws. They ought to be punished.
3 of his accusers died the same year
And one before they could testify in court weird coincidence

False accusations are terrible.
Literally 3 witnesses were killed off
The first so-called "Witness" was a disturbed and obsessed lunatic who was thrown in jail for making bomb threats against Spacey. And she wasn't even the one that was supposedly "groped". It was a patient of hers... supposedly. The second "witness" is some anonymous "John Doe" who no one even knows who it is. The third "witness" committed suicide and not even the family disputes that he killed himself. So your post is literally b.s.
Lol sure
Is he really innocent?
I hope he returns to great movies, I missed him.
I never knew the is and outs of this trial. As far as I was aware he was guilty. Disgusted how the media made talked about him as if he was guilty
He should have done this speech in Frank Underwood character.
Now he can run for the Office.
i wonder what he really did to hollywood?
Congrats Kevin ... you're a living legend. We can't wait for your next cinematic masterpiece
I still don’t trust him
50+ allegations tells you that it might be a calculated and planned attack because it came simultaneously, don't believe anything, anyone who is suddenly attacked by the media, know that there are reasons, maybe he rejected the devil's offers, and when you don't do what they want from you, they attack you fiercely, the media is a weapon, I don't believe anything anymore, you only hear from one side and not for a moment did you think that we should listen to Kevin, he and his words are covered up, grow up and don't follow the herd.
