Recent Charges of Sexual Abuse of Children in Hollywood Just Tip of Iceberg, Experts Say

Dec 6th, 2011 | Category: Latest News | 123 comments


It was mentioned in several articles that child stars who are introduced to the “Hollywood System” often go through all kinds of trauma and abuse. This disturbing news article basically confirms that cases of child abuse do not just happen, they are widespread in Hollywood and may be considered a “hideous epidemic”. These kinds of stories tells loads about the mind state of those who run the entertainment industry.

Recent Charges of Sexual Abuse of Children in Hollywood Just Tip of Iceberg, Experts Say

Allison Arngrim (left) starred on 'Little House on the Prairie." She said stories about Corey Feldman and Corey Haim (right) being abused as child stars were common in the 1980s and 90s.

If a spate of recent allegations proves true, Hollywood may have a hideous epidemic on its hands. The past two weeks have brought three separate reports of alleged child sexual abuse in the entertainment industry.

Martin Weiss, a 47-year-old Hollywood manager who represented child actors, was charged in Los Angeles on Dec. 1 with sexually abusing a former client. His accuser, who was under 12 years old during the time of the alleged abuse, reported to authorities that Weiss told him “what they were doing was common practice in the entertainment industry.” Weiss has pleaded not guilty.

On Nov. 21, Fernando Rivas, 59, an award-winning composer for “Sesame Street,” was arraigned on charges of coercing a child “to engage in sexually explicit conduct” in South Carolina. The Juilliard-trained composer was also charged with production and distribution of child pornography.

Registered sex offender Jason James Murphy, 35, worked as a casting agent in Hollywood for years before his past kidnapping and sexual abuse of a boy was revealed by the Los Angeles Times on Nov. 17. Murphy’s credits include placing young actors in kid-friendly fare like “Bad News Bears,” “The School of Rock,” “Cheaper by the Dozen 2” and the forthcoming “Three Stooges.”

Revelations of this sort come as no surprise to former child star Corey Feldman.

Feldman, 40, himself a survivor of childhood sexual abuse, unflinchingly warned of the world of pedophiles who are drawn to the entertainment industry last August. “I can tell you that the No. 1 problem in Hollywood was and is and always will be pedophilia,” Feldman told ABC’s Nightline. “That’s the biggest problem for children in this industry… It’s the big secret.”

Another child star from an earlier era agrees that Hollywood has long had a problem with pedophilia. “When I watched that interview, a whole series of names and faces from my history went zooming through my head,” Paul Peterson, 66, star of The Donna Reed Show, a sitcom popular in the 1950s and 60s, and president of A Minor Consideration, tells FOXNews.com. “Some of these people, who I know very well, are still in the game.”

“This has been going on for a very long time,” concurs former “Little House on the Prairie” star Alison Arngrim. “It was the gossip back in the ‘80s. People said, ‘Oh yeah, the Coreys, everyone’s had them.’ People talked about it like it was not a big deal.”

Arngrim, 49, was  referring to Feldman and his co-star in “The Lost Boys,” Corey Haim, who died in March 2010 after years of drug abuse.

“I literally heard that they were ‘passed around,’” Arngrim  said. “The word was that they were given drugs and being used for sex. It was awful – these were kids, they weren’t 18 yet. There were all sorts of stories about everyone from their, quote, ‘set guardians’ on down that these two had been sexually abused and were totally being corrupted in every possible way.”

In fact it is the very nature of a TV or movie set that invites predators, experts tell Fox News.

“A set in Hollywood with children can become a place that attracts pedophiles because the children there may be vulnerable and less tended to,” explains Beverly Hills-based psychotherapist Dr. Jenn Berman. “One thing we know about actors, psychologically speaking, is that they’re people who like a lot of attention. Kids naturally like a lot of attention, and when you put a kid on a set who is unsupervised and getting attention from someone who is powerful, it creates a vulnerability for a very dangerous situation.”

Feldman, who claims he was “surrounded” by pedophiles when he was 14, says the sexual abuse by an unnamed “Hollywood mogul” led to the death of his friend Haim at the age of 38. “That person needs to be exposed, but, unfortunately, I can’t be the one to do it,” Feldman told Nightline.

“There’s more than one person to blame,” says Arngrim. “I’m sure that it was not just one person who sexually abused Corey Haim, and I’m sure it wasn’t only him and Corey Feldman that knew about it. I’m sure that dozens of people were aware of the situation and chose to not report it.”

Arngrim, a board member and the national spokeswoman for protect.org, an organization that works to protect children from physical, sexual, and emotional abuse, says greed in Hollywood allows sexual predators to flourish. “Nobody wants to stop the gravy train,” says Arngrim. “If a child actor is being sexually abused by someone on the show, is the family, agents or managers – the people who are getting money out of this – going to say, ‘OK, let’s press charges’? No, because it’s going to bring the whole show to a grinding halt, and stop all the checks. So, the pressure is there is not to say anything.”

“It’s almost a willing sacrifice that many parents are oblivious to – what kind of environment do they think that they’re pushing their kid into?” said Peterson. “The casting couch is a real thing, and sometimes just getting an appointment makes people do desperate things.”

Arngrim, who revealed her own sexual abuse in her 2010 autobiography, “Confessions of a Prairie Bitch,” explains: “I’ve heard from victims from all over the country. Everyone tells the same kind of story, everyone is told to keep it secret, everyone is threatened with something. Corey Feldman may have opened a can of worms by speaking out, but yes, this does go on.”

Even though Feldman spoke candidly about the abuse, he hasn’t named the predator. “People don’t want to talk about this because they’re afraid for their careers,” says Peterson. “From my perspective, what Corey did was pretty brave. It would be really wonderful if his allegations reached through all of the protective layers and identified the real people who are a part of a worldwide child pornography ring, because it’s huge and it respects no borders, just as it does not respect the age of the children involved.”

    “It’s almost a willing sacrifice that many parents are oblivious to – what kind of environment do they think that they’re pushing their kid into?” Sick. I remember an old Michael Jackson interview in which he said his dad passed him to grown men to sleep in the bed with them. People actually wondered why he thought it was "normal." People only went after Joe Jackson for the physical abuse, but I noticed no one confronted him about the sex abuse, he dresses and looks like a pimp. I blame the parents foremost, they turn a blind eye for the money, whether it's neglect or just vieweing the child as chattel…this is human/child trafficking.

    • Seeking Truth says:

      Just as in his song Money, "Anything for money, would lie for you would die for you, even sell my soul to the devil." :/

      • Budda says:

        For the record…Hollywood is not the only place this happens to children. There are thousands of victimized children as I type this right now being shipped around the world by ship, boat, plane, car, train, truck, van..to pedophiles around the world. Hollywood is just a them park for the Pedophiles. BELIEVE THAT!

        However, if youhave chilren or plan on having children in the future, Please be a great parent and do what right and protect your children and raise them correctly.

    • Carolyn says:

      I am the parent of a teenage daughter and may not be the most amazing parent in the world but it makes me sick to my stomach that stuff like this goes on. Just the other day I seen an article about a 4 week old baby had been raped!!

      I had a terrible experience of sexual abuse as a teenager by a family member although it could have been a lot worse, it totally messed me up for many years.

      I honestly do not understand why anybody would want to abuse anybody at any age for any reason. I wouldnt even wish harm on my worst enemy although I had done in the past I have dealt with all this stuff in my head now on my own and am just glad that I managed to and that it wasnt worse because it wrecked my life for many years. Even in my early twenties I went to see a hypnotherapist because I had terrible dreams and flashbacks.

      I understand why it may be hard for people to come forward and put this out there but am sorry for the sake of their careers!? At what expense. I dont know how anybody could know this and not say anything knowing that its still going on and more children are being abused maybe not directly because of this but it could be stopped if they did!!

      It surely is a f****d up world we live in. So sad and so disheartening!! Its no wonder so many people are messed up and why so many people do end up commiting suicide, what hope is there really unless something big changes!! People who dont speak up are just helping to perpetuate this, if these people think they are untouchable they will just keep doing what they are doing and it will never end!! Someone speak up ffs!!!

    • face in the crowd says:

      Bravery is naming names. The fact he did not say "Larry King" or "Steven Spielberg" or whoever…at least to me…shows he is not brave. He is still very, very afraid of his own interests, be it his estate or his life, who knows.

      He should name names. More children are being abused because he is not naming names.

      • Deveny says:

        He's brave for talking about it. I'm not surprised he didn't name any names, if he did he and his family could be in danger. I would love to know some names though.

      • Bingo Starr says:

        If he names names, who will protect him? Not Hollywood, not the government. I can understand why he doesn't want to go there. As a victim, it's his choice.

      • LornaDoom says:

        Feldman has a family, his own children, these r very dangerous people who r capable of anything. He spoke out and I believe he did it for his friend Corey Haim, whom he loved dearly and if u watched their reality show when Haim confronted Feldman about being sexually abused and asked why Feldman did nothing to help him, Feldman and everyone watching then realized what was at the crux of Haim's self-destructive behavior and I know that broke Feldman's heart because he had to confront issues and situations he had buried deep inside himself for years.. I feel for Corey and I admire his bravery, He is taking on a juggernaut and I really hope he isn't rent asunder. We need to pray for him…

    • rose says:

      I would if i could

  2. Dominique says:

    When people start naming names and that "reasonable doubt" kicks in, Hollywood could be on the verge of shutting down.

    Eerily I feel that there are more than just people in the entertainment world that know and are a part of it. THEY will go to no ends to keep THAT hidden.

    • BRAVELION says:

      You are correct Dominique,

      It goes all the way to the top. People have come forward and named names,

      like Brice Taylor who came forward and exposed she had been owned by BOB HOPE,

      and used by everyone from entertainment stars, to presidents.

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0y1zhBspJY8

      Similarly Barney Frank, the LONGTIME Congressman was running a male brothel from his DC

      home, and was never arrested, for the same reason, the people that were using his

      "services" were so high up, everything would fall apart.

      http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=weSzkIB8184

      Lawrence E. King was released from prison in 2001.

      These people are very well connected, they "party" with the judges that try their cases.

      They aren't called "Mickey Mouse" Courtrooms for nothing…..

      Same with what's currently going on with Sandusky case @ PENN STATE.

      Apparently members of "the trust" were also given access to the children they were so concerned "helping". These vultures target the vulnerable, desperate and poor, because no one wants to admit these "upstanding pillars of the community" are truly monsters in disguise.

        bravelion — excellently written!!!

      • Jennifer says:

        Yes, and don't forget the Franklin Cover-up. The abuse that goes on in Disney. Children are being exploited everywhere by everyone and there is no one that can protect them, expect GOOD parents. Unfortunately, money seems to mean more than their children's happiness and safety. I feel bad for Wil Smith's children. I think they're headed down a dangerous path.

  3. Raquel says:

    This is very sad and disgusting. I will never understand what satisfaction could you possibly be getting from molesting or raping a child? What other pschological planet do these people go to in order to be able to do these things? Come On! Leave people's children alone. I couldn't care less about rather they belive in God/Jesus or not (even though I'd rather they did)with religion aside though for a minute…what happened to the common sense in people, the decency, morality, and the not only "knowing" right from wrong but the "CHOOSING" to do right instead of wrong in humanity. Where has it gone? Being a demonic creep has become too popular these days and it needs to stop. Please. Another thing that needs to stop is all this crap in music and other entertainment. It's annoying! Can't they make it to wherever they want to get to in status without all that crap. They should try it!

    • AwakenedOne says:

      Common sense has been dead since a long time ago.

      • freetoday says:

        The sickness is old in Hollywood. It makes me think of "Hollywood Babylon" by Kenneth Anger. Finally, the truth comes out. As the story spreads, people can speak with their money. Enough is enough.

    • Rebecca says:

      It goes beyond common sense and all of that. It is pure evil, and I think they pedophiles must know it is evil. That isn't stopping them. I would never let me kid do anything "hollywood", even if approached by talent scouts or whatever. I don't care about the money, I care about my daughter!

      Corey Feldman needs to name names, also! I would make that the goal of my life if I were him. What about the kids that are still being molested by whoever that guy is? Protect children!

    • Sandra says:

      there are a lot of people out there who are just pure evil at this point and they will do the most vile things and laugh over it.

  4. Raquel says:

    Oh and the other sad thing is that for some of the parents who help or push their children into becoming a star….if they were to find out the things that could possibly happen to their child for a transaction (as I like to call it) of fame… some of those parents still wouldn't pull their children out of it. It's all about "Fame! I'm gonna live forever….!" Whatever whatever yeah yeah yeah… how about protecting your child. Try that out. If you love your children, act it out.

    • Dee Dee says:

      Many of these "parents" are not really parents but handlers given children that are used to carry out the agendas. So these are not loving parents putting their children out there, but evil monsters using these children in the worst ways possible.

  5. Dr. Octagonapus!!!! says:

    And people would why our society is so fucked up…..blame Hellywood.

  6. Manders says:

    Whether or not the source is "Fox news" should be irrelevant. Sexual abuse is a horrific crime and if you are an avid reader of this site, you KNOW this stuff goes on in Hollywood. Focus on the issues, not the source. May the perverts who have mishandled, abused and scarred these children for life, get what is coming to them… one way or the other.

  7. juan says:

    "People don't wanna talk about these things because they're afraid for their careers" I think they're more afraid for their lives than for their career, after all, only the living can speak out.

  8. BRAVELION says:

    Thanks VC, This widespread corruption if FINALLY coming into the light, on a grand scale.

    I studied Art and Design in University and my first big job after graduating was for Disney/

    New Line Cinema. I was flown out to Los Angeles to do designs for the Hairspray Movie.

    On my first day a tall cold woman came in and said "ZAC EFRON is Disney's new IT BOY".

    The " Rising Star" was now ready to have his face plastered over 1,000's of lines of merchandise. (From water bottles, to back packs, to Binders, you name it.)

    I designed several graphics for the company. It was the biggest paycheck I've ever received.

    But that conversation stuck with me, because something about it (and the way she referred to Zac felt WRONG) and I later realized, Why would a company (like Disney) spend $$$$$$$ selling a random "rising star"? Unless s/he was a company "INVESTMENT". We all know Disney doesn't "Invest" in starts unless they are going to have LONG and LUCRATIVE careers.

    Aguilera, Timberlake, Spears, Gosling, Cyrus, Gomez, Lovato, etc. etc.

    It wasn't until YEARS later that I started to come across Youtube series like MKCULTURE,

    and THE FREEMAN PERSPECTIVE, where you actually start to get the breakdown of the

    History, and CULTURE these people are immersed in, and the pieces started to line up.

    So every day is unbelievable because we have it paraded around in front of us so blatantly.

    Now when I watch the award shows, and "competitions" the symbolism is everywhere.

    Aimed primarily at young kids, and increasingly performed by younger and younger kids.

    On Fox's "So You Think You Can Dance" Two of the choreographers have been convicted of

    Child Molestation/ Rape Charges ( Shane Sparks & Alex Da Silva) Tip of the Iceberg?

    http://924collective.wordpress.com/2011/10/31/bla

    It's not just Hollywood, look @ Jerry Sandusky & the WHOLE Penn State sex ring being exposed after YEARS of cover-up. WHY? For 1,000s all they care about is their football? WTF

    That's what it is a CULTURE, groups of people doing these horrors. They have no problem

    exposing a lackey for a diversion, and continuing on as if nothing happened, that is how

    arrogant they are….See ( CONSPIRACY OF SILENCE) on youtube for more proof of this.

    But that facade is starting to crack thanks to all the Vigilant Citizens waking up Everywhere!

    Peace, Love, and Enlightenment

  9. Vanessa says:

    This story reminds me of a ritual rite into Hollywood. They do say if you want to be famous you have to give some things up. The greed, ignorance, and deception is what keeps parents from throwing their kids into this Pedophile ranking system. Isn't it suspicious that a lot of child stars from way back have some form of issues with drugs, mental health, and whatnot. I think when children are put into the spotlight and enter Hollywood as the next big star a sacrifice has to be done, and unfortunately it's the child's mind, body, and soul. I fear that every young star in Hollywood has to go through this look how at Britney, Lidnesy, Miley, and a whole lot of kids who grow into adulthood and can't manage. Now look at what it will be like for Willow, Beiber and others. There was a story not too long ago that a member from B2K said that their manager raped them and had forced the ex-band mates to engage in sexual behavior. The ex-band mates were not pleased about his forthcoming and denied his allegations. I thought the story was true, and I may be wrong, but whether the statement was true or not I felt the ex-band mates attitude towards men/boys possibly being or have been raped was shame. I think society as a whole as more pity on a woman if she gets raped, and society wants to nurse her back to health (only if she wasn't promiscuous, drunk, or on drugs at the time), whereas men if they get raped they were never men to begin with (gay or straight). This mentality can drive men into suicide, drug addiction, and mental anguish. As a society I think when women and men come and confess they have been raped they both should get the same equal amount of understanding and care. I think the higher rankings in Hollywood are all pedophiles and not even just that, I think the higher uppers in all aspects of life are all Lucifer worshiping, menace to society, money loving, pedophiles. I don't know if ever more stories from children who have been abused in all forms can one day speak about what happened and who was their perpetrator. Hopefully, the lid being blown off of Universities sports coaches being accused of being pedophiles can give others men, women, boys, and girls the courage to speak up and speak out against these heinous acts and the perpetrator. These are cold days in history and the saddest part is it's going to get colder and colder as mass deception is going to be promoted on its highest level.

    • LVB says:

      That is very well said, Vanessa.

      There is no doubt that these "higher uppers", as you call them, form a massive, powerful and wealthy global cult that reaches through all layers of society – which is just so evil and tragic that it is very hard for many people to accept as truth. But it IS truth.

      Top politicians, entertainment lawyers/managers/agents, the highest ranking law enforcement officials, judges, corporate CEOs, music producers, fashion photographers, university professors, journalists, captains of industry and mass media, bankers, priests, bishops, cardinals and Popes, teachers and coaches at all levels, doctors of all specialties and so many "mental health professionals" are at the top of the list of those who are in such a unique position to exploit, abuse and destroy society's most vulnerable victims.

      While "a sin is a sin" unto God, I have to believe the darkest corner of Hell is set aside for those who sexually abuse, assault and murder children. There will be no mercy or forgiveness for these monsters who knowingly and repeatedly destroy the lives of God's most innocent and vulnerable creations.

      Parents, keep your children very close to you in these times, and always beware that these degenerate scum of the earth always gravitate to careers and places where they will be near children, and give themselves the most opportunities to commit their crimes.

      These monsters do not "suffer from a disease", as if to imply that they are somehow the victims and simply cannot control themselves and their evil fantasies and desires. They CHOOSE to do what they do – and as difficult as it is for good and decent people to grasp this concept – they ENJOY it and absolutely will not ever stop or become "cured" by any form of medication and/or therapy.

      Their death and final judgement after their wretched lives end is the only remedy for the plague that they truly are in our world. Again, they are not the only sinners among us, but they are certainly among the worst and least likely to ever change their behavior – unless they receive the most aggressive and permanent "lead therapy" – in the form of a bullet to the head.

      • guest says:

        NO, not all sins are the same. Sometimes we misinterpret the bible.i used to steal sugar and cookie as a child, are you comparing my sin of disobedience to my parents with someone who raped a 1 month old baby?

        Sometimes jesus protested against evildoers who use some verses of the bible and forget the most important ones. we should have a full understanding of cirtain scriptures before we use them.

        i can imagine being a parent. i would keep my child under my eyes at all times. trusting neither man or woman.

        i would never sell out my child for money.

      • Nic says:

        @guest you have good parental skills. Who knows what happened to that baby boy? The adults were bailed out apparently. Where is the Sharia Law when you need it?

      • Nic says:

        check out a recent link about that little one:
        http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-kent-1617686

        At least he hasn't deteriorated, hopefully he'll make it.

  10. AW says:

    I am glad I am young and am reading about all this stuff, these poor kids. Spread the word… that's all I can do.

  11. Weber says:

    I agree it's about being killed that is the reason for silence. How much love would a community of rich pedophiles have for the moral codes of religion? Especially some goodie two shoe one like Christianity? NONE.

  12. Trace says:

    It's even more disturbing that these hollywood fools think their ideas should run the country?

  13. Isis says:

    I cannot stand when someone will come out & say they were molested or abused but they won't NAME NAMES. Doesn't he realize that him outing who the perverts are, he could be potentially saving hundreds of other children? I don't get it. Maybe it's because he's scared, or he has something to lose. I just think it's sad when people won't speak up on things like this, especially if the people who did it are still in the business & working with children.

    • Daniel says:

      Yes they have a lot to lose, like their lives. They are threatened with death if they name the perpetrators of pedophiles.

    • MissLambert says:

      I understand your frustration but it's not that simple. Pedophiles groom their victims and never complete a "session" without a non-disclosure statement. That statement could entail a threat to the victim or someone/something close to the victim, it could be a statement of reverse psychology making the victim think they will be blamed if anything came out, the victim is even sometimes shamed into silence. I speak as a victim who didn't tell anyone for six years. I've worked with juvenile sex offenders as well. It's frustrating from the outside looking in, so try to imagine what the victim is going through.

    • Ralphster says:

      Maybe he doesn't have any proof. Or maybe the statute of limitations has run out since it was more than 20 years ago. I agree it would be better to tell, but if he doesn't have evidence to back it up he could be sued for slander.

    • Tee says:

      Naming names would get him killed or his wife or his child! He's not protecting the perv, he's protecting himself. These people are powerful with deep pockets who do whatever it takes to protect their 'secret'.

    • Jag says:

      It is harsh to judge the victims like that. Speaking out can be the hardest thing in the world. In addition to possibly putting their own lives and family's lives at risk, naming names could destroy hundreds of other families and right or not it is a heavy burden for someone to bear knowing that what they say would have such an impact. If you haven't been in that position don't assume you know what it feels like. The problem with this type of crime is that reporting it often has a worse impact on the victim than the perp. It is a strange situation where victims often continue to have some kind of relationship with their attacker into their adulthood because the attackers are almost always family members/ in the same social circle/ an important individual in the victim's life

    • LibraryChick says:

      Regarding why people are scared to name names, I can think of at least one particularly good reason. When a former coworker of mine was found guilty of child molestation, he was also charged (and found guilty) of criminal intimidation. The 9-year-old child who had been abused told the court he had been scared to tell because the person had threatened to kill his parents. If someone had told me as a 9-year-old my parents would have been killed for telling, I probably would have kept my mouth shut too and just put up with suffering for their sakes. As an only child, I wouldn't have been able to conceive of life without my parents at that age. I know the celebrities speaking now are not children anymore. If they have young families of their own, they are probably so worried about the repercussions for their loved ones that they feel they can't afford to name names. Here's to hoping they find a way to do it while also protecting the ones they love.

    • star says:

      I don't believe he wanted this out there but Corey Haim exposed what went on to the world. Now Corey F has to play his cards right and protect him and his family – who knows what these sick people may do. Corey has the world listening to him right now and if something happened people all want answers.

  14. HappyCynic says:

    money money money monaaaaaaaaaaayyy……………….monaaaaaayyyyyyyyy *singing* this kind of thing should not be talked about. Take care of your babies and family at home and don't talk about this.

    • HorrorFreak says:

      Why should it not be talked about, may I ask? This is an issue that people need to know about. We should not just sit back and watch children be hurt. We need to talk about it to raise awareness so we can stop it or better yet, prevent it before it happens in the first place.

      • Maudfaith says:

        notice the guy's/girl's name is Happy Cynic. that gives a clue about the nature of his comment…not to be taken as is.

  15. clau says:

    so sad to see this the world is polluted mentally and physically, i believe the reason they go after kids is because they are innocent, pure and for rituals or any type of sacrifice the innocent and purer you are the more benefit for the one doing the ritual. have you ever figured or thought where did they come up with the word hollywood if you separate the words holy-wood it becomes diff. meaning could that have to do with that place called damm where they gather and worship the big wooden owl? anyways crazy thoughts .

    • Me Myself & Eye says:

      I believe the name Hollywood originates from the druids who used to fashion their magic wands from the wood of the Holly Tree. That should make you think differently about the moving images that come outta Hollywood & what type of craft these so called movie studios/directors/screen writers etc are practicing. Apparently even Harry Potter's wand is made from Holly Wood.

  16. Tee says:

    IMO, if they 'revealed' all of the sexual predators and pervs in the entertainment industry, they would have shut down hollywood…I believe it is so widespread until it's considered 'business as usual'! People don't report it because it happens all the time, including the people in the article. They'll never get to the bottom of it…ever!

  17. Chris says:

    Nothing gets me ragin' like these sick pedos ><

    I'd like to go vigilante style on these psychotic hollywood execs who are sexually abusing kids. Nothing is worse than ruining a childs life, after sexual abuse there is very little chance they will turn out well adjusted and normal unless they get hundreds of hours of therapy and even then I'm sure it will stick with them for life and they will probably end up as drug addicts or commit suicide.

  21. sugary says:

    It's not just the upper echelon of hollywood that breeds, nurtures, houses and protects these FILTHY pedophiles; this sickness has long since proliferated politics, popular sports, the music & fashion industries, religious institutions, governmental agencies like FBI, CIA, & CDC (in addition to many other powerful organizations that mold and direct our lives)

    How a grown person can view a child as a sexual object is revolting and detestable; it is unthinkable that a human could torture an innocent child.

    As I have come to understand it, sexual perversion towards a child is a manifestation of possession. Essentially these people lust after children – whether for sexual or sacrificial means – because the entities controlling them desire the 'energy' released when a child is being terrorized. A child's energy is more pure than that transmitted from an adult because they have not yet experienced hormonal change/puberty. I suppose you could liken it to the movie, Monsters Inc; the monsters would scare the kids to harvest their screams (energy); art imitating life, eh?

    Peace and Love to All.

      Hollywood probably is a hot bed of peodophilia, but lets not pretend this doesn't happen elsewhere, in normal homes, wealthy homes, poverty stricken homes, across religion, culture etc. Peodophilia happens all over the world. It is not restricted or localised to Hollywood.

  26. Amy says:

    I'm pretty sure a lot of parents that keep quiet about the pedophiles and their horrific crimes are not responsible parents at all. Unfortunately I suspect some are just concerned about money and fame and take advantage of their own children as well. The environment in show business can sometimes be sadistic and abusive because of the hierarchical and powerful nature of it.

  29. God gifted says:

    I've always said Hollywood is built on top of Hell, just like in the movie Percy Jackson in the Lightning Thief. The secret entrance to get into the Underworld was underneath of the Hollywood sign. I do not have any children but I pray that if and when I do, they never want to be in the movie business or want to sing. Entertainment, unfortunately is the trappings of much blatant evil. People scoff and will not allow themselves to think that true evil even really exists but it does. It's not in secret, it's hiding in plain sight and we see it every single day. I feel so sorry for Corey Feldman and others like him who know the names of the vultures who picked their innocence like bones and who are dead set on calling them out for fear of retribution of even worse. And all of them tumble down the same rabbit hole; alone and full of despair and anguish. It's all sad and twisted.

  30. GrowingUp31 says:

    I know I posted this quote few minutes ago in another article, but after reading this article, I can't help but to think about these words of Gaga:

    "As an artist, that's something I prayed for. I really want to experience something psychotic and outer-body and magical and inconvenient to help breed my creativity, to push my tortured reality to the place of the double rainbow."

    I guess this 'psychotic' experience and 'tortured reality' she is talking about refer to being used by pedophiles.

    LA REID is a pedophile/predator. I was 12 when he tried to have sex with me.

    • pw says:

      Thank God you avoided rape and molestation during that time. I heard some disturbing things about L.A. Reid and wondered if it was true. I wouldn't trust anyone in the "industry".

      • Reach4wisdom says:

        Yep, L.A. Reid, the late Jeryl Busby (record exec at Motown, MCA, Universal) and others I've forgotten were part of a panel I attended back in the early 90's at a music convention in New Orleans. the group TLC was showcased that afternoon…I'll never forget how after they finished performing, the panelists were commenting on them and I expected critiquing and all I heard to my utter shock and total disbelief were blatant sexual references and jokes at their expense and the whole room in uproarious laughter.

        Those kids at the time were about 14 or 15 years old and there was a panel of grown men and old men cracking jokes about taking those girls to their offices for private performances etc.. I mean they were going on and on! I watched for a reaction and those girls didn't even flinch!

        Years later L.A. Reid's wife, Pebbles (she discovered and managed TLC) went ballistic on him when she found out he'd been having an affair with Chili of TLC. I believe that's when she finally filed for divorce. I also remember rumors about how L.A. and Babyface literally passed back and forth a young singer, Johnny Gill (later became a member of New Edition with Bobby Brown).

  35. anamericanmom says:

    Someone told me just yesterday how every year. in whatever city the Superbowl is in, hundreds of children are brought in to the hotels for the "pedophiles" who will be at the game. That was one of the worst things I have heard, horror for those children. We both said, how do the police, the hotels, the people involved, get away with it? What amazes me, that it happens on American soil, the land of the free? Mothers of the world need to stand up for the children. I should say, all of us, need to speak out, open the windows, and let the sun shine on these evil fools.

  36. ShiningBrownOne says:

    I hate reading about pedophilia! It's so heartbreaking and most people you try to inform don't care or don't wanna know. It's like cognitive dissonance. This will continue if people do nothing only thru people can this be exposed and stopped!

  37. Domani says:

    Steven Spielburg is probably the pedophile, he's usually directing huge hollywood films centered around children.

  38. Eternal says:

    Many child stars especially females are made to look like sex-figures especially with the sex-kitten look. This sex-figures at a young age promotes pedophilia. Hollywood should try stemming this trend else pedophilia in show business is bound to rocket to higher levels

    • Niki says:

      Hollywood has a warped body image ideal anyway. The participants are made to look like mini adults with heavy make-up and inappropriate clothes. It's appalling to see these little boys/girls exploited and made up to look like prostitutes. Everything to satisfy the brain damaged child predators. I wouldn't hesitate to put each one of them out of their misery, if I had the chance, even though I'm against violence.

      • Niki says:

        I have boycotted Hollywood to such extent that I haven't spent a penny in anything related to them. You can even get their movies for free nowadays.

  39. Niki says:

    Pedophiles are deprived but it's even more disturbing that parents would put their children out there to make easy targets for predators. Caring and loving parents don't ride the gravy train at their kids' expense. On the other hand unbalanced/greedy parents are more than willing to instil in their sprogs the belief that physical beauty and an unhealthy sexualized childhood will get them what they want.

  40. Larry Morgan says:

    Just read a novel that deals with secrets that have been embedded in the family structure and linger for generations. It's called "REVELATIONS" and it's written by Laurel Dewey. It's a MUST read if you are into this subject matter. In the story, a 15-year-old BOY is kidnapped and feared dead until a strange series of events point to a deeper conspiracy. When I read this thread, it was almost like that book was coming to life. The book really shows you how embedded people are in NOT revealing the truth because they are either protecting themselves or someone else who has something over them. The parents of the missing boy are absolutely chilling and, I think, the author purposely put a lot of mind control symbolism into the story for those of us who are open and understand the significance of it.

  41. freetoday says:

    Good for Corey Feldman. That took some stones. I applaud him for telling the world why these kids spent most of their lives killing themselves. That said these pedo bears deserve general population is Chino. They may not get it, but I don't believe people get away with anything– including the Elite. Good thing the bottom is about to fall out on Hollywood as people increasingly will download their movies online– sidenote. I feel like vomiting, so that's enough.

  42. Reeces says:

    I have recently been studying Michael Landon, his personal life and revolt toward Christianity. It concerns me that there are so many unsuspecting people who do not want to know the truth/reality behind this man and the shows he wrote/produced. One thing you might be interested to not VC is that while we were watching a dvd from the series, my son demanded that we stop and rewind the disc, as he thought he had seen something suspicious. He had indeed…an Egyptian Ankh. It only appears on the screen for a brief second or two, but it is undenable. Perhaps this is something you might be interested in researching further, as I would be curious as to what other symbols lay hidden throughout the series and whether anyone else has found anything untoward.

    Its insane I was reading the current issue of W magazine (it's a fashion magazine) Dekota Fanning and her sister are on the cover. They younger sister is basically asked how she liked working with Steven Spielberg on the set of 'super 8' since her sister (at the age of 12) worked on 'war of the worlds' also directed by Steven Spielberg. She blaintly explains how it's crazy that at the age of 12 she was ALSO asked to play in the movie…strange age coincidence?

  47. Everybodywillbow-Chr says:

    I am always sad to here of child abuse and not just in Hollywood nation. I am so afraid that most of the parents of Hollywood child stars consistently turn a blind eye in order to rip the financial benefits. The parents should be investigated as well.

    • Queen says:

      I have to agree, My friend and I were molested as children we were in dance. My grandmother walked away for a few seconds. My friend and I talked about it amongst each other but never told, Corey Feldman, You are the bomb, Hollywood will fall don't you worry.

  48. Bingo Starr says:

    This is so sickening, I find it hard to put into words how I feel. I'm heartbroken and outraged. This reminds me of the blind items on gossip sites that talk about the latest kid star that's gone wild, engaging in risky sexual behavior, abusing drugs and alcohol and engaging in all manner of inappropriate behavior. Surely many, if not all of these kids have been abused. But people get a salacious kick from reading about their struggles. Not cool.

    Also, it should be said that not only kids are being exploited. I'm totally convinced that some adult celebs have been MK'd and are continually used in sex magick rituals. I believe they were targeted long before they landed in Hollywood.

    In every facet of life these days, there's predators out there waiting to pounce. Stay vigilant…

  49. Bingo Starr says:

    Maybe Corey can find an alternative means of outing his abusers. Write a screenplay or a book (fictionalized, but with clues that lead to the real perpertrators). Has anyone read Palo Alto by James Franco? I think he outed his childhood abusers by writing "fictionalized" accounts of what happened to him. Corey should consider that.

  50. guest says:

    i care more for the 1 month old that was raped and battred by two grown ups. A man and a woman.

    When i was a child if someone touched me inappropriately i knew it was wrong. i remember a grown man rubbing down my legs. i felt disgusted and i told on him. Im happy it didnt get further than that. thank God! but it still terrify me today, so i can imagine what it is to live in the terror of this kind of abuse.

    what i dont understand how these kids never screamed or tell on them. i would. but i did hear that pedophiles will threathen children.

    I do notice that some of these celebs who are speaking out on the entertainment business about programming society for distruction through satanism never had a problem with what they were getting into at the begining. They chose to join in and manipulate us and when all hell brake loose, they all of a sudden decide to start slandering.

    If i go to a restaurant and buy food then i happen to be disgusted by the food then i wouldnt eat it and i wouldnt go back.

    • Nic says:

      The incident with the vile couple and the little one is shocking. But don't worry their human rights will be protected, that's Hague for you.

      When I was in my late teens I had a strange encounter in a central bookstore. A sly little man approached me and started interrogating me. Is your father alive, are your parents divorced, how old are you, the Spanish inquisition blah blah. He then showed me some disturbing polaroid photos of a young girl, 15 years old whose father passed away when she was a child and that twerp somehow seduced her. As soon as I reported him to the store staff, he fled faster than the wind the little coward. Apparently he was preying on the vulnerable in public places, may be schools. Who knows.

    hollywood is a mayjor money making industry . they pull in trillions of dollars every year.

    Do you think the law enforcements will do much for the victims?

    yes! they will convict a few but thats only to calm the fire not to put it out.

    this is a spiritual warfare, not only only in hollywood but worldwide.

  52. Prose says:

    He doesn't have to name names. He is giving a who's who hint when he says he realized he was surrounded by the perverts when he was 14. All you have to do is go onto IMDB and look at the movies he was in during that time and see the names of many of the sick, twisted culprits that are listed from directors, producers, executive producers… Two in particular were known to be gay. But look at the list closely and you will also easily see who the Hollywood mogul is. Read between the lines. The same people society celebrates and applauds are the same ones hurting our children. They will have to give an account to God for that evil and they will be judged. It is so sad that these evil people are ruining these poor, innocent children who grow into broken, confused adults that can't seem to break free of their emotional pain.

    • alexia says:

      He doesn't have to name names. I agree, he pretty much blew the whistle on who is responsible. Feldman is married now and has kids, these people can easily go after him and attack his family so I can't say I blame him for not spitting out the name directly in the interest of protecting his family.

      As for this "Hollywood Mogul" person, did you know that Oskar Schindler's wife was living in poverty in Argentina and never received a dime from the film?

  53. soulsabor says:

    Its also advertised in music. There are several songs encouraging pedophilia. Beyonces "we like to party" starts off with "i might be young but im ready" Or moves like jagger " u say im a kid"…

    • Fee says:

      This is true, it seems to me that they are programming people to unknowingly embrace pedophilia or to not think anything of it, while also putting in our face without us knowing it what sick things they are involved with. Disney movies are known to have sexual subliminal messages in them. I discovered this many years ago but at the time didnt know what to make of it other than it being sick, so i just put it aside. Now it all makes sense. In the movie aladin you can hear him say in a very low voice "good teenagers take off your clothes" which is the subliminal message, but it should be heard as "good tiger take off and go" or the other way around. Also britney spears first single "hit me baby one more time" played backwards sounds like she is saying "sleep with me im not too young".

      There is a lot of proof that these people are pedophiles, and I am glad to see Corey and Allison speak about it. They arent naming names most likely because of obvious reasons but speaking about it could mean a lot to them in their hearts.

  54. Fuff says:

    This is disgusting and sadly rings true through out different privileged groups.

    I am born and raised in Canada, and my father used to work for the government here when he was much younger. His duties were nothing special in particular, mostly worked for the liberal party on campaigns and ideas.

    One year he was asked to accompany a leader down to the states for a head conference. He soon realized he was being used as a gopher more than anything else, getting food, alcohol etc. He left after a final straw, which was when a USA congressman approached my father and asked him to bring him a number of girls, and not any kind of girls but young ones… 14 and under. My father was appalled, at the time he had two kids (myself being only 8).

    The man offered my father a huge sum in cash, which my father rejected as he couldnt wrap his head around the whole idea.. he said to have felt sick to his stomach. He left abruptly , quite his job and never went back to the government.

    I just remember when he told me this story, I myself was only 16 years old… at the time I had aspirations of being a 'triple threat'.. He told me this and concluded by saying its a dark world we live in and people want to exploit others at any costs.

    Its truly disgusting what people will do but knowing about the corruption is the first step to stoping it.

    So, what really WAS the deal with Michael Jackson? It's obvious that he was clearly a victim of multiple pedophiles himself, but did he become one himself? I'm still so undecided on this one. Just think how monstrous it was if he was not only falsely accused, but an actual victim, and meanwhile his molesters were never named, much less charged.

    I think it's interesting that Feldman testified that Jackson wasn't one.

  60. dirtygurl says:

    hello all,

    it has lomg since been established that hollywood is full of sick twisted perverts, but the buck doesnt stop there it goes all the way to the white house and beyond. Religious leaders, politicians, athletes, captains of industry, military officials etc are all pedophiles who do indeed rape/sodomize their own children as well as others. I understand from my own research that ancient greek men often seduced young boys as evidenced in their art, and they did believe that it gave them some kind of power to do so. Most of these pedophiles come from long lines of inbred families who violate their own children, so most of them have been victimized as well. This is why it is so easy for me to believe that MJ actually did molest young children, because he was in fact molested/raped himself. My question is, how do we blame those who were life-long victims themselves. For some of them, it is how they have been raised their entire lives…so should they know better? I'm not taking any pedophiles side, because i was victimized as a child. But if we start the blame game, then who do we start and end with?

    As a mother, there is no way that I could allow my children to be in any kind of show business. I will not allow them to join organizations like the boy scouts, boys and girls clubs, etc or even play sports because it is a fact that pedophiles put themselves in position where they are around children all the time. Look at Sandusky who created an organization just so he could prey upon the same kids that he was supposedly "helping". There are no sleepovers no playdates none of that. I hate to be so overprotective but I have to look at what I went through and what it did to me. ln my case long after the actual molestaton, I was and am still dealing with the aftermath to this day, and there's no way Im going to let anybody do this to my children.

    But I digress…back to Hollywood, this Satanism crap is what Hollywood was built on. I was told that if you google earth century city you will see masonic symbolism on the rooftops of some well known buildings. I've heard that it's been going on since Hollywood's inception, and that the murder of Elizabeth Short aka The Black Dhalia was a ritual sacrifice. Look at how Brittney spears programming had broken down a couple years back when she was seemingly going crazy she told someone that she was tired of people touching her…now what do you think she meant by that? Look very closely at the unholy coupling of Jay Z/Beyonce which is not husband and wife, but handler and slave. There have been so many instances where she is obviously under some kind of control, and I have pics on my blog of her in a childlike state where she has to be assisted to the car with this spaced out look on her face. Look at the video of Britney on dateline nbc with diane sawyer where she clearly says hello to her alter on national television after diane triggers her with the word "spasm"…AND NOBODY THINKs ANYTHING OF IT! Look at the video of Anna Nicole Smith in one of her child alters, and know that they killed her son right in front of her at the hospital to keep her quiet and under control! There is no monetary value on the happiness and well being of my children.

  61. realist says:

    The problem with naming names is that instead of cautioning parents on the general dangers of Hollywood it becomes a witch hunt of a single offender. If someone manages to get that person prosecuted without ending up dead like Haim or Phoenix, then everyone thinks the treat is gone and the pedo's go back to life as normal.

  62. Jane says:

    Hollywood is not only a haven for Pedophilia but also for The Occult and Satanism. There is a long documented history of this. Many Hollywood celebrities were Satanists such as Marilyn Monroe, Jane Mansfield, Sammy Davis Junior, the list goes on and on. Read David McGowans Laurel Canyon. These folks basically settled this area. Violating children is part of their religion. I don't hear that mentioned enough. People have to start becoming aware that their rituals involve some horrific and unimaginable acts against infants and children. Only then I think will people start to wake up and bring about change when they realize that Pedophilia is entwined with Satanism. It is a religion that attracts such people because it's accepted and encouraged.

  63. spitintheeye says:

    child abuse and abuse in general has been around a long ass time, its just possibly worse now and more depraved. you think how much ponography is available and how easy it is to view not only that monsters create monsters, its a vicious circle. it would take devine intervention to make anything right in this world or dimension. its crupted to the core, this world was created this way manipulated this way, the whole entire world would have to be on the same note for anything to change . theres to much distraction going on for anyone to see clearly. so in the meantime keep your soul positive and spread info whenever u can (in a peaceful manner)

  64. Truevoiceman says:

    So one year later and the machine goes on! NO mention in the "Main Stream Media" and nothing is changing. Does this shed any light on how powerful the Ped Community is?

    In Australia we have a on going case where an actor (Pedophile Robert Hughes Molested) from a TV who called 'hey dad' was molesting a young actress and no body did anything thing. (I hope they get every one of you sick asreholes)
