The singer and his partner David Furnish answered questions via video link from Monaco.
Furnish asserted that, to his knowledge, Spacey had only ever been a guest at one of their balls, and, when asked by prosecutor Christine Agnew, stressed that there was no chance of Spacey’s attending another without having been photographed.
“It was understood we were promoting a charity involving the eradication of stigma surrounding disease,” he said. “For celebrities wanting to come to our event, it was always understood they needed to be photographed.”John was also asked about a photo of him leaving London’s Victoria Palace theater after a performance of, asserting that the photo showed him “looking straight forward at my car,” and that he didn’t notice anybody else. “Anyone who is on my periphery, I wouldn’t notice them.
Spacey is facing 12 charges, including four counts of indecent assault, seven counts of sexual assault, one count of causing a person to engage in sexual activity without consent, and one count of causing a person to engage in penetrative sexual activity without consent. He has pleaded not guilty to all 12, with his defense having labeled the case of the prosecution as “weak” and accusing the complainants of lying and overexaggerating their stories.
