The Hollywood Sentinel attended the red carpet and screening of the film AN OPEN SECRET when it came out. several years ago, here in Hollywood. We heard one of the producers Gabe mention on the panel how he was upset that one of the producers and director–Amy Berg was not in attendance, and not promoting the film.
One of the actors appearing in the film, now an adult, and a victim of child abuse documented, spoke with me, and had planned to do an interview with me about the film. He later told me that he could not do any publicity regarding the film, because he stated how Amy Berg had personally asked him not to, claiming that she had been threatened with lawsuits, and that he could be sued to, if he or Berg did any publicity for the film. The victim said he could not help if I spoke about the film further, but that he was not going to and could not.
He said that it was sad, that all of the work they had done was not getting the recognition that it deserved, to expose the abuse further, but he said the he couldn’t do anything else about it, that he had to respect Berg’s wishes, because he had signed contracts. He told me that he received no money for appearing in the film, and as far as he knew–no one did.
Now, with the recent ongoing allegations and also factual disclosures of rampant sex abuse, and harassment in Hollywood this year; from Harvey Weinstein, and earlier–Bill Cosby, to now Kevin Spacey, and many more; speaking out against abuse has become not only after space for victims to do, it has become a trend– from the @MeToo twitter movement among more;, victims are naming real and alleged perpetrators nearly every week.
Corey Feldman, who I once met at Michael Jackson’s repass funeral, years ago stated how Hollywood was a breeding ground for child pedophiles, and that Hollywood was filled with them. He noted how he and his childhood friend Corey Haim were both abused. he stated that Haim later killed him self with drugs and alcohol due to the pain and embarrassment he suffered from the abuse.
Corey Haim’s mother stated that Dominick Brascia abused her son. Corey Feldman had for years– refused to name his abusers publicly, reportedly for fear of danger to his life. He has since–as recently as last week, now named two of his abusers. He stated the two abusers as former child talent agent Marty Weiss, and also Cloyd Jon Grissom (aka John Grissom); the latter who has a very long rap sheet including resisting arrest, drug possession, shoplifting, theft, child sexual abuse, and more. Corey Feldman stated that he as opened up a new compliant against those that abused him with the LAPD, yet the LAPD stated they can do nothing, as the statute of limitation has passed, as the crimes were committed before the new law ending a statute on limitations for rape.

Corey Feldman is reportedly going to be naming 4 more abusers he has referred to, later on. Three of the abusers–he states, still work in Hollywood. He named one more of the abusers today–Alphy Chris Hoffman (aka Alphy Rivas, aka Chris Alphy Hoffman, aka AC Hoffman, aka Alfie Hoffman, aka Chris Hoffman, aka Christopher Hoffman, aka Albert C Hoffman, aka Alpy Hoffman, aka Laphy C Hoffman, aka Alphy C Huffman), the former owner of Alphy’s Soda Pop Club. Hoffman may also go by the name Joshua, and did or does also operate as BH Casting at a hotmail address. He resides in Hollywood, California.
Corey Feldman is also now working on raising money for a film to address this topic and help stop the abuse and name abusers. Congratulations to Corey Feldman for doing something about this, and thank you to all others who fight to stop rapists and abusers in Hollywood. Thank you to those especially who help to fight child abuse and child sex abuse in Hollywood and the world.
Thomas Edward Sizemore, reportedly living in Santa Clarita, California, was dropped from his agent and management firm today for accusations of sexually molesting an 11 year old girl on a movie set in which she was reportedly sitting on his lap in a nightgown, in 2003–which became public today. Sizemore, who reportedly has been arrested for beating women and drug and alcohol problems, denied the charges when they were claimed, yet some cast and crew members reportedly stated that he was regularly drunk and high on set, and considered the claims valid, according to news sources today. Sizemore’s only current known rap sheet includes failing to pay child support, and an eviction.
