Kevin Spacey finishes testifying in sexual misconduct civil trial

Kevin Spacey remained composed Tuesday during cross examination at a civil trial in New York City, repeatedly rejecting suggestions that he wasn't telling the truth when he denied an actor's claims that he made a sexual advance on him when he was 14 in the 1980s.

His testimony for several hours on cross examination by a lawyer for actor Anthony Rapp, 50, went smoothly enough that Spacey's lawyer did not ask any questions after the examination was completed by early afternoon. Rapp testified earlier in the trial, now in its third week. He is seeking $40 million in damages.

Addressing Rapp's lawyer as "sir," Spacey didn't seem rattled a day after he emotionally testified that he regretted following the advice of his handlers to be "friendly and cordial" in responding to Rapp's claims in 2017 that Spacey picked him up and briefly laid on top of him on a bed in his apartment in 1986 when Rapp was 14 and he was 26.
