Michael Jackson Accused of "Assaulting" Corey Haim
Corey Haim was a beloved child actor who died too soon. For a lot of his life, he was better known for his drug use — and for being a survivor of childhood sexual abuse.
Recently, an accusation came forward that Charlie Sheen had been one of Haim’s abusers.
Now someone else has stepped forward, claiming that Corey Haim had told him of Charlie Sheen … and had also described an alleged assault by Michael Jackson.
As more and more stars come forward with their #MeToo stories, some consider it only a matter of time before every sexual predator in the entertainment business is exposed.
Others aren’t so optimistic.
Some predators are organized and know how to keep their victims silent. Harassment campaigns and threats of lawsuits can keep people from coming forward even when so many are shedding the culture of silence.
Corey Haim’s friend, Corey Feldman, survived Haim’s death and has spoken and written about what they both endured at the hands of sexual predators.
But Corey Feldman has named only one name, citing that the others are too powerful for him to risk trying to expose.
Remember — anyone with enough money can sue someone who lacks the financial means to fight a long, expensive court battle.
But sometimes, accusations slip through the cracks.
It’s now been claimed that Charlie Sheen raped Corey Haim when Haim was just 13 years old.
Charlie Sheen would have been 19 at the time.
It was Haim’s close friend, Dominick Brascia, who made the claim. Charlie Sheen responded with a denial.
But now another famous celebrity has been named as one of Corey Haim’s abusers.
And this one … well, he’s not exactly around to defend himself.
RadarOnline reports that film producer Ed Meyer has come forward with allegations that he says Corey Haim made in 2008, before his tragic death.
“Corey said, ‘I have a problem with Michael Jackson and with Charlie Sheen."”
Well, that could mean a lot.
“‘I was assaulted by these guys, and a few others."”
Note that Meyer says that Haim didn’t call it “sexual assault.” That can be hard to say, especially for survivors and especially for male survivors.
Meyer explains why he didn’t press for details or more names:
“I didn’t feel it was appropriate to say, ‘Who are the other people?"”
That sounds best.
“He didn’t use the word sexual in either case. [It was just], ‘I was assaulted by these guys and a few others.’ It was also clear Sheen turned him on to drugs. That was 100 percent clear …”
We don’t know what Haim said to make that so clear to Meyer.
“He sounded like he was calling Charlie a pimp.”
That’s not what it sounded like to us, but maybe you had to be there?
Critics have been quick to point out that coming forward with a dead man’s alleged accusation against another dead man isn’t exactly a bold move.
And skeptics have found it suspect that Meyer just happens to name a man who’s already been accused … and a controversial man who isn’t alive to respond.
Both of those are fair points. These are secondhand accusations
Michael Jackson is also a complicated person to accuse because, well, he’s dead. Accusing an active predator who’s living the good life is one thing.
Some argue that accusing someone who’s dead … doesn’t really help anyone.
Oh, if somebody wants to take down a statue or rename a street, bringing up someone’s troubled history is totally valid.
But in Michael Jackson’s case, he has living relatives — including his children (despite conspiracy theories about Paris Jackson’s paternity). They stand to be hurt by accusations that can’t help anyone.
Honestly, though — isn’t the truth always worth it?
If this is the truth, that is. Again, we’re talking about secondhand allegations from a decade ago. Corey Haim isn’t around to speak for himself.

Sylvester Stallone Accused of Sexually Assaulting Teen
In the wake of the Harvey Weinstein sex scandals, it seems not a day goes by without a Hollywood or D.C. power player being accused of some appalling act of sexual misconduct.
Today alone, two universally recognized and widely beloved men have faced allegations of sexual assault and harassment.
First, Senator Al Franken was accused of groping a female colleague and now, film icon Sylvester Stallone is
According to a police report uncovered by CBS’ Los Angeles affiliate, a 16-year-old girl claimed that she was forced into sex with both Stallone and his now-deceased bodyguard, Michael DeLuca, back in 1986.
The girl says she was staying at the same hotel as Stallone, who was traveling in promotion of his film Over the Top.
DeLuca reportedly gave the girl a key to Stallone’s room and instructed her to visit the actor that evening.
When the girl arrived at Stallone’s suite, DeLuca reportedly “took her into a bedroom, where they had sex, while De Luca waited in the bathroom.”
The victim claims that Stallone then asked her if she’d ever had a threesome and invited DeLuca into the room.
Stallone, who would have been 40 at the time, then allegedly forced the girl to perform oral sex on both men.
The victim says Stallone then told her that he would “beat her head in” if she told anyone about the attack.
According to the police report, the girl elected not to press charges for fear of retribution.
“She indicated that if the sexual encounter had only been with Stallone, she would not pursue this matter,” the report states, “but due to the fact that (De Luca) became involved in the sexual incident, she didn’t know what she wanted to do.”
The victim says Stallone, who was married at the time, was aware of her age, as he remarked on her youth one day prior while flirting with her in the hotel lobby.
She says she informed him that she was only 16, and the actor replied by asking “how she got such a build.”
The victim claims she laughed off the question and was surprised when Stallone proceeded to kiss her.
“He replied that he would give her a kiss at a later date that she would not forget,” the report reads.
Stallone has not yet commented on these allegations.
We will have further updates on this story as more information becomes available.

Jeremy Vuolo: Arrested for Drunkenly Assaulting a COP?!
If you follow news of her family closely, then you’re probably aware that Jinger Duggar has been branded as the resident “rebel” of the Counting On clan.
For the most part, the 23-year-old’s acts of defiance have been incredibly tame by the standards of the non-Duggar population.
For example, Jinger’s decision to wear pants despite her family’s strict long skirts-only policy is often interpreted as a very mild way of flouting the strict rules under which she was raised.
But while the pants get all the attention, Jinger’s most salient act of disobediance was her decision to marry Jeremy Vuolo.
If you watched the young couple’s courtship on Counting On, you know that Jim Bob was slow to embrace the idea of his daughter marrying Vuolo.
And it seems that as Jim Bob’s feelings on the situation haven’t changed much in the year since Jinger and Jeremy tied the knot.
One major issue is that Jeremy and Jim Bob disagree on matters of religious doctrine.
(Jeremy, a Texas-based minister, preaches the doctrine of Calvinism, a tenet that flies in the face of many of Jim Bob’s core beliefs.)
But we now know that there’s more to Jim Bob’s disapproval than arcane theological disputes.
Vuolo has spoken publicly about his troubled youth in past interviews, but only now do we know the extent to whichthe 30-year-old rebelled against authority.
Police records recently obtained by Radar Online detail a 2008 incident in which Vuolo was taken into custody for drunkenly harassing a police officer.
“An intoxicated male who appeared to be a friend of the male that was involved was acting belligerent and shouting obscenities while in front of numerous subjects,” the reporting officer wrote.
“Identified later as Jeremy Vuolo.”
“For no apparent reason, Vuolo walked up to [the officer] and grabbed his right arm/bicep in a forceful manner,” the report reads.
“Subsequently, Vuolo was arrested and transported back to HQ, where he was booked and later released to a sober friend.”
Vuolo’s BAC was reported as .13 at the time of his arrest, which is considerably higher than the allowable Duggar family limit of 0.00.
“I was part of the college party scene and was living foolishly,” said in an interview last year.
“I’m not perfect, but I sought out accountability and I now see great victory in my life.”
Many Duggar fans feel that even though Vuolo has put his (relatively) hard-partying ways behind him, his less-than-godly past goes a long way toward explaining why Jim Bob was so reluctant to give his son-in-law permission to marry his daughter/
Yes, the incident took place nearly a decade ago, but unless criminal acts took place within his own immediate family, Jim Bob doesn’t forget easily.
(In case it wasn’t clear, yes we’re talking about the Josh Duggar sex scandals.)
Watch Counting On online for more from reality TV’s most controversial family.

Melissa George Opens Up About Husband Violently Assaulting Her: What Did She Say?
Melissa George is struggling to come to terms with an alleged assault that she was on the receiving end of last September.
That assault was allegedly at the hands of her ex-husband, Jean-David Blanc.
The 40-year-old Grey’s Anatomy alum opened up about her ordeal on an Australian TV program named Sunday Night.
George revealed that things became physical between them after an argument at their penthouse apartment in Paris.
“It started with him on top of me, with my arms locked above my head,” she claimed.
‘I couldn’t walk, I couldn’t turn my neck.’
Melissa George’s full @sundaynighton7 interview airs this Sunday, 8:30pm on Seven. #SN7 pic.twitter.com/ANqTT97I7N— Channel Seven Perth (@SevenPerth) 17 March 2017
“I just tried to fight for myself, which made him more angry, which made me more angry and he pushed me into the door and then struck my face, and I hit the wall and fell on the floor. He stood over me and said, ‘Now you’re a real actress."”
George further claimed that Jean-David then “grabbed the back of my head and smashed it on the metal thing where you hang your coats.”
When Melissa got to the police station after escaping the dire situation, the police called an ambulance for the actress, presumably they could tell she had been severely beaten.
Jean-David was later arrested.
It’s such a horrible thing to happen to anyone, but things took a strange turn in court about the whole thing.
The judge convicted both Melissa and Jean-David for assault and said they had attacked one another.
As you can probably expect, both of them are appealing their convictions, while going to war with one another for custody of their two sons Raphael and Solal.
Melissa revealed during the interview that her ex-husband continues to taunt her via text messages about her lack of parenting skills.
While Melissa took to TV to reveal her side of events, Jean-David revealed to Daily Mail that Melissa’s take on events are lies.
He revealed that he was the one who was attacked first and acted in self-defense.
What do you think about all of this?

Migos: Accused of Assaulting Sean Kingston!
Well, here’s a hip hop feud we certainly never saw coming.
If you’re over 25, you probably remember Sean Kingston as the one-hit wonder behind the 2007 chart-topper “Beautiful Girls.”
If you’re under 25, you almost certainly know Migos – the crew responsible for the omni-present club banger “Bad and Boujee.”
Now, it seems the cross-generational stars have collided in unlikely fashion, as TMZ is reporting that the three members of Migos have been accused of brutally beating Kingston following a verbal confrontation in Las Vegas last night.
Sources tell the site that Migos and Kingston got into an argument regarding the feud between Chris Brown and Soulja Boy.
According to witnesses, Migos viciously attacked Kingston, kicking and stomping on his head after he fell to the ground.
A member of Kingston’s entourage reportedly pulled and fired a gun, but no one was wounded.
Police reports indicate that Migos and Kingston had fled the scene by the time law enforcement arrived.
A short time later, Kingston was pulled over following a traffic violation, and was “semi-cooperative” when police questioned him about his injuries, but he did not point the finger at Migos.
Interestingly, despite the fact that several witnesses have reportedly identified the group as the culprits, they’re not currently wanted by police.
Cops tell TMZ that they do wish to speak to Migos, but they are not planning to issue a warrant.
That doesn’t mean the rappers aren’t in trouble, just that police don’t have sufficient evidence to arrest them.
Kingston’s life has taken many unfortunate turns since he first gained fame a decade ago at the age of 17.
In 2011, Kingston was badly injured in a jet ski accident, and there was a time when it looked as though he wouldn’t survive.
In 2013, Kingston was accused of rape, but no criminal charges were filed, and a lawsuit filed by the alleged victim was settled out of court.
The extent of Kingston’s injuries is currently unknown.
At this point, neither Kingston nor the members of Migos have addressed the incident publicly.
We’ll have further updates on this story as more information becomes available.

Kate Major Arrested for Assaulting a Police Officer, Being a Menace
Kate Major is a major loser.
Kate Major is a majorly terrible mom.
Kate Major is the majority leader of Poor Decision-Makers of America.
Or whatever.
In any case, Kate Major – who’s married to Michael Lohan, Lindsay’s dad – was arrested in Palm Beach, Florida yesterday for battery of an officer, as well as drunkenly disturbing the peace.
She should have been booked for having the bad sense to marry Lohan, as well as the real reason she should have been arrested.
Major caused a scene after she went to a friend’s house and got drunk.
After getting drunk, she tried to pick up her child from Michael’s home, and when Michael smelled alcohol on her breath and noticed her drunkenness, he took the keys away from her.
Lohan then called the police when Major got combative, and after officers arrived on the scene, she kicked and fought them as they arrested her.
Major is currently incarcerated, and TMZ reported that her latest arrest could land her some serious jail time …
Especially considering that she’s already on probation for assault.
Her current probation stems from an arrest back in 2015, where she was removed from a plane after drunkenly threatening the flight attendants.
Prior to the air incident, Major was arrested for attacking Lohan.
If you’re wondering whether or not Major was drunk – again – for this incident, ask yourself a harder question like, “Does the sun rise every day?”
It’d be like playing brain games, giving the old cranium something to strain over.
When police arrived on the scene, it was apparent that she was drunk.
She’s scratched Lohan down his back, and reportedly clawed as her own throat in order to make it look reciprocal.
Previously, Kate Major was in and out of rehabs, arrested on multiple DUI charges, went missing, and had two children with Michael Lohan.
In 2015, both Major and Lohan lost custody of their children, Landon and Logan, after a video emerged featuring a vicious fight between Michael and Kate.
(But “Logan Lohan?” Really?)
After the children were put in temporary guardianship – at their grandmom’s house – Michael was cleared of criminal child abuse charges.
Despite being cleared, the children remained in their grandmother’s custody.
The two have been separated for nearly a year, after Kate filed on the grounds that Lohan tried to “sabotage” her rehabilitation stay.
Kate requested legal custody of the couple’s two children, as well as joint physical custody, and in addition to spousal support.
“Good luck,” we say.
Poor kids.
