Last November, a man named Scott R. Brunton accused George Takei ofgroping him without consentback in 1981.

In a subsequent interview withtheOregonian, Brunton also said, I know unequivocally he spiked my drink.
I asked him to clarify the issue.
Did he touch your genitals?
You know … probably … Brunton replied after some hesitation.
He was clearly on his way to … to … to going somewhere.
We shared a pause.
So … you dont remember him touching your genitals?
Brunton confessed that he did not remember any touching.
I shared the toxicologists observations with Brunton, who admitted that this made him feel better.
He was probably right all those years when he thought he was just drunk.
Burton still feels he was taken advantage of that night by someone he considered a friend.
Brad and I are especially grateful for the many fans who stood by me throughout this ordeal.
Your support kept us going, and we are so immensely thankful for you.
