This whole thing is really f'd up. Roman Polanski was one of the first guys that got nailed for it, and you never heard much about it other than Michael Jackson allegations, and then what the 2 Corey's were saying. Polanski had high profile actors DEFENDING him for f sake.
It's disgusting if what Feldman is saying is true, and I hope they drain the swamp if it is.

If you look at Feldman's imdb listings he was still prevalent in movies and TV in 1993 when he started going public, after that a combination of probably Hollywood blacklistings and his drug problems really crushed his opportunities and he bounced from crap to crap, he went from being pretty much a teenage heart throb and a well paid at least B list actor right into the toilet.
I can just see the hollywood execs sitting around a darkened table
Exec one - "That Corey Feldman is talking about Haim being raped and sodomized again, and he's also throwing out accusations that he was molested.
Exec two - "Are these allegations true master?"
Exec one - "Of course they are, its a hollywood tradition, you want to be in our movies, you have to play the game"
Exec two - "So now what do we do my lord"
Exec one - "What we always do, we don't cast him in anything good, we crush him and eventually he'll look like a fringe failure of an actor desperate for attention and nobody will pay attention to him"
Exec two - "Excellent plan eminence"
Exec one pushes a button and a receptionist asks what he wants
Exec one - "Time to celebrate . . . Darlene why don't you bring in a 12 year old . . . "
Darlene - "Scotch sir"
Exec one - "No boy"
He hangs up the phone shaking his head
Exec one - "You just can't get good help these days"
