New York, New York - A Manhattan jury took less than two hours on Thursday to determine that Kevin Spacey should not be held liable for Anthony Rapp's decades-old sexual misconduct allegations.

The verdict came after a quick deliberation at the end of a two-week trial.

Rapp’s $40 million lawsuit accused Spacey of coming on to him as he was starting out on Broadway when he was 14 years old.

He claims the American Beauty star, then 26, climbed on top of him in a sexually aggressive manner after a party at his Upper East Side apartment until Rapp squirmed away.

The jury did not know that more than 20 men have accused Spacey of sexual misconduct, or that he faces criminal charges in the UK, although Rapp himself and his attorney heavily hinted at other sex abuse accusations, which drew complaints from the defense and criticism from the judge.

Spacey continues to deny all allegations.

Rapp, who first told his story in a 2017 interview, was presented as jealous of Spacey's success and lacking credibility. Spacey, meanwhile, was accused of manipulating the jury by crying and describing his difficult childhood as a gay person with a "neo-Nazi" father.

"I’m very grateful to the jury for seeing through these false allegations," the former House of Cards actor attorney was quoted as saying.
