Sexanklagelser mot Hoffman: Utsatte mig 1985
Skådespelaren Dustin Hoffman anklagas nu för att ha utsatt en praktikant för sexuella trakasserier under inspelningen av ”En handelsresandes död” år 1985.
Anklagelserna kommer från författaren Anna Graham Hunter, som var 17 år vid tillfället. I Hollywood Reporter skriver hon om händelsen och berättar att Hoffman redan hennes första dag frågade om hon kunde ge honom fotmassage.
”Han var öppet flirtig, han tog mig på rumpan, han pratade om sex med mig och framför mig”, skriver Graham Hunter.
Hoffman kommenterar anklagelserna i ett uttalande och säger att han ber om ursäkt och känner sig hemsk om något han gjort ”har satt henne i en obekväm situation”.
