Director Bryan Singer's alleged sexual assault victim claims he was repeatedly raped during parties attended by some of the most powerful people in Hollywood.
Michael Egan, 31, came forward to speak about his accusation during a press conference on April 17. Egan claimed he and his mother went to the FBI and LAPD back in 2000 with his accusations of sexual assault, but nothing came out of his meeting. Egan is unsure why authorities didn't further investigate the incidents. Egan was a 17-year-old aspiring actor during the time of his alleged rape.
"They pulled me away for their threat sessions and told me...'At the end of the day if you don't keep the members of this group happy, we control Hollywood. We can eliminate you. We will eliminate you,' threat after threat after threat," Egan said during the press conference, referring to what he was told by the moguls the the Hollywood parties.
"I had drugs put in drinks. I had liquor poured down my throat," he added. "There were rules in the house of no swimsuits, no clothes out by the pool area. I was raped numerous times in that house by numerous individuals, various types of sexual abuse all throughout that house...you were like a piece of meat to these people and they passed you around between them...if I could define what that house was it's evil."
According to TMZ, Egan said he previously sued two of his alleged rapists, but Singer was not named in the lawsuit. Criminal charges were filed against Marc Collins-Rector, one of the alleged rapists named in Egan's lawsuit. Collins-Rector took a plea deal to one count of having sex with a minor, but fled the country soon after. Egan and his attorney confirmed they will file three or four additional lawsuits by next Thursday.
