Gay Movie Director Drugged, Raped Teenage Boy in 1999, Lawsuit Alleges
Posted on | April 17, 2014 | 59 Comments
Bryan Singer, the openly gay film director best known for X-Men movies, has been accused of molesting a teenage male model in 1999. The lawsuit is described by the Hollywood Reporter:
Bryan Singer, director, producer and writer of more than two dozen productions including the X-Men films, was accused Wednesday in a federal lawsuit of having sexually abused a 17-year-old boy at estates in Los Angeles and Kailua . . .
According to the suit, the Los Angeles parties were held at a mansion in Encino referred to as the M & C Estate, whose residents were Marc Collins-Rector and Chad Shackley, whose younger brother Scott Shackley was in [victim Michael F.] Egan’s high school class. Collins-Rector and Chad Shackley were principals of Digital Entertainment Network, an early online streaming video company. The complaint asserts that Collins-Rector sexually abused Egan and threatened him with a gun, but does not name him as a defendant.
(Collins-Rector subsequently was charged and pled guilty to transporting minors across state lines for sex, and is a registered sex offender.)
Details from the federal lawsuit:
The parties were typically sordid and featured sexual contact between adult males and the many teenage boys who were present for the parties. Further, the parties included the distribution of drugs and alcoholic beverages to the teenage boys at the party. Upon information and belief, the nature of the parties was well-known and notorious among many men in the Hollywood entertainment industry. . . .
During the infamous and degenerate parties at the M & C Estate, the adult males engaged in sexual contacts with the Plaintiff, as well as the other boys present. Plaintiff never freely, voluntarily, and knowingly consented to these sexual interactions, and often resisted them. . . .
Approximately 2–3 months after Collins-Rector began sexually abusing Plaintiff, Defendant Singer was socializing with Collins-Rector around the estate’s swimming pool and Plaintiff was in the pool. In compliance with the “rules” imposed by Collins-Rector that people in the pool area were not allowed to wear clothes, Plaintiff was nude as was Defendant Singer. Collins-Rector ordered Plaintiff out of the pool, and Defendant Singer hugged Plaintiff and grabbed his bare buttocks. They then went to the jacuzzi where Collins-Rector had Plaintiff sit on his lap and fondled Plaintiff’s genitals. Collins-Rector then passed Plaintiff to Defendant Singer and Plaintiff was made to sit on Defendant Singer’s lap. Defendant Singer provided an alcoholic beverage to Plaintiff and mentioned finding a role for him in an upcoming movie that he was directing. Defendant Singer told Plaintiff how “this group” controls Hollywood, and that he was sexy. Defendant Singer masturbated Plaintiff and then performed oral sex upon him. Defendant Singer solicited Plaintiff to perform oral sex upon him which Plaintiff resisted. Defendant Singer flagrantly disregarded Plaintiff’s unwillingness to submit, and forced Plaintiff’s head underwater to make Plaintiff perform oral sex upon him. . . .
Defendant Singer visited the estate regularly and continued to sexually assault Plaintiff. He coerced Plaintiff to masturbate him and to acquiesce to his masturbating Plaintiff, and to each performing oral sex on the other. Defendant Singer also continued to anally rape Plaintiff. . . .
On more than one occasion, Plaintiff was flown to Hawaii when he was 17 years old. Two of these trips took place on or between August 1, 1999, and October 31, 1999, during which times his stay lasted roughly one week. Plaintiff stayed in the Paul Mitchell estate in Kailua, Hawaii, with Collins-Rector, Shackley, and others, including a number of other juvenile males. . . .
On each occasion when Plaintiff was in Hawaii, he was required to interact with Defendant Singer while at the Paul Mitchell estate. On more than one occasion, Defendant Singer provided him with drugs, including cocaine, a pill identified as “green triangle” which is believed to be a reference to the drug Ecstasy, Xanax, Rohypnol, pain pills believed to be Vicodin or Percocet, and alcoholic beverages. . . .
Defendant Singer put a handful of cocaine against Plaintiff’s nose and forced him to inhale it. Defendant Singer then provided Plaintiff with a beverage which he drank which significantly impacted his consciousness and his motor skills. Defendant Singer then entered the pool where he nonconsensually masturbated Plaintiff and performed oral sex upon him. Defendant Singer caused Plaintiff to rub his erect penis against Defendant Singer’s buttocks. He forced Plaintiff’s head underwater and made Plaintiff orally copulate him. He then caused Plaintiff to get out of the pool and lie face down on a lounge chair. To continue the sexual assault, Defendant Singer spit on Plaintiff’s buttocks, spanked him, and forced a handful of cocaine onto Plaintiff’s face. He then anally raped Plaintiff. He subsequently caused them to go to the jacuzzi where he provided another beverage to Plaintiff. Defendant Singer attempted to insert his penis into Plaintiff’s mouth which Plaintiff resisted, but he ultimately was able to force his penis into Plaintiff’s mouth. Defendant Singer then assisted Plaintiff to their room where he again anally raped Plaintiff. . . .
So, was this an action film or Bryan Singer’s idea of a romantic comedy?
For the record, the director’s attorney says none of it ever happened.
Who ever heard of a Hollywood director being into drugs and sex, right?
Remember: Corey Feldman said pedophiles are “everywhere” in Hollywood.

This. Is. Bad. If it is true.

The hilarious thing is that these people needed a go-between. Like Bill Clinton and his State Troopers.
As a musician, the only time I ever needed a third party involved was when I wanted someone to get someone else to stop bothering me.
Well, that, and the good people I hung around with who set a better example than I did. So that kind of third party was the best kind.
Always hang out with good people.

I always cringe when a friend or neighbor tells me their kid is going into acting, modeling, or “film school.”
I can’t imagine what the true burnout rate is for that stuff. Behind every supermodel are thousands of young women who were totally used up by the business and often ended up in sex work to get by.

I neglected to mention that Brock Pierce is a former child actor, having had small roles in the first two The Mighty Ducks movies and the title role in Sinbad’s First Kid movie about a Secret Service agent guarding the President’s son. http://youtu.be/GxxSCwOP8HA

Such parents come in all forms. Well known is the story of former pre-NFL Oakland Raider lineman Marv Marinovich, who raised his son from day one to be an NFL quarterback. That didn’t work out so well. I still remember the shock when the truth was revealed about Ila Borders, the most successful female baseball pitcher of the last half-century.
As the story goes, Borders announced to her father Phil after a Dodgers game that she wanted to be a baseball player when she grew up. Instead of saying “Baseball’s not for girls, honey,” her dad promised to teach Ila everything he knew if she was serious, and she was. He got her into Little League despite resistance from league officials. This eventually led to her defying monumental odds and doing well enough on her junior high, high school, and community college teams.
But after her time in pro ball was over, a secret was revealed: To give Ila more experience among tougher competition, Phil Borders forged identification so the 5’10” Ila could participate in a men’s semi-pro league in which the minimum age was eighteen.
At the time, Ila was fourteen.
Ila never reached the majors nor played for a team with Major League affiliation. She didn’t distinguish herself as a minor league pitcher, but still exceeded all expectations. To our knowledge she had no life-scarring experience. But the fact remains; Phil Borders gambled with her childhood with that stunt. He and she both lucked out.

That’s telling.
“Brock Pierce” probably isn’t his real name. It sounds like something the SImpson’s writers would come up with as a parody actor name.
