COREY FELDMAN ARRESTED JUST DAYS AFTER SPEAKING OUT ON HOLLYWOOD CHILD SEXUAL ABUSE

• Collective-Evolution

Amidst all of the Harvey Weinstein scandals, Feldman chose to bring more attention to his child sexual abuse allegations in Hollywood, as sexual violence is extremely common in Hollywood and affects not only an astonishing number of women, but many men and children as well.

Feldman tweeted multiple times late last week explaining that although he will not name "anyone else's" abuser, he would "love others to come forward."

"For the record: I will not be going on a talk show to disclose names of my abuser or anyone else's abusers. So please stop asking me to do so," he tweeted.

He also noted that without proper protection for him and his family, he could not name names for safety reasons. "Also let me add, this is not about fear of being sued! Yes that's a real possibility but the bigger reason is safety for my family," Feldman tweeted.

"My career was shut down, I have been mocked and shamed for doing what I have done to this point!"

He added that he would "love others to come forward as there are many other witnesses to the crimes I have addressed. Still not one of my peers has offered anything up in a decade."

Shortly after Feldman chose to recount his child sexual abuse allegations over social media, he was arrested for marijuana possession. However, the official story is full of holes, and Feldman was quick to point out the irony over the timing.
