After a scandal broke out in Hollywood with the famous American film producer Harvey Weinstein, who was accused of sexual harassment, the press constantly appears new stories on this topic. Yesterday the media published a sensational news: 61-year-old illusionist David Copperfield was also accused of sexual violence.
Brittney Lewis told an unpleasant story
A few days ago, on his social networking page, the 61-year-old magician decided to write a short post in which he supported the Me Too movement. These are the words David wrote:
"This post I want to express my positive attitude to the activists of Me Too. This movement must flourish. Any person on this planet should have the opportunity to speak out, especially when it comes to sexual violence. However, I want to warn ... Sexual accusations are so serious that you need to have at least some evidence that they took place. You can not blame people simply because there is a desire, because such stories break lives and fates. "
We do not know with what purpose Copperfield issued such a statement, but literally the next day he was accused of having raped a minor 20 years ago. In the press appeared an interview with ex-model Brittney Lewis, who told the following:
"It's very difficult for me to talk about this right now, but still I decided on this step. I met David Copperfield in 1998 in Japan, when I participated in the beauty contest. After that, we met in California in one of the bars. We drank alcohol, and then went up to the room, where David kissed me on the lips, and then began to descend lower in the body. Further I do not remember anything. In the morning he told me this phrase: "There was nothing between us. I did not enter into you. Do not worry…". Despite this, I submitted tests, but they did not show anything. My friends who were aware of this story told me to forget everything, but I still can not do this. I'm sure that Copperfield gave me some drugs in alcohol, and used a condom during intercourse. "

David was already accused of sexual violence
Copperfield's biography already had a similar case, but the accusations against the celebrity were put forward not in 2007, but in 2007. Then Lacy Carroll, a former Miss Washington, applied to the police of the Bahamas, in which she indicated that David had raped her in one of the hotels. While local police officers were working out the version of the crime, the illusionist left the resort and flew to the USA. The fact of rape has remained unproven.
