Kevin Spacey is now the subject of criminal investigations in two countries. The Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office has confirmed to the Hollywood Reporter that it is reviewing a sexual assault case against the actor passed to it by the sheriff's office earlier this month. Police say the alleged events occurred in West Hollywood in Oct. 1992 and involved a male adult, reports the Guardian, which notes that British police are investigating allegations Spacey sexually assaulted three men in London between 2005 and 2008. The BBC reports more than 30 men have come forward with allegations against Spacey, who has been removed from Netflix hit House of Cards and other projects. (London's Old Vic theater says it received more than 20 "personal testimonies" against Spacey.)
