Famous Star Trek actor George Takei just made headlines as he is accused of sexual assault on a former actor and male model, who claimed Takei drugged him and when he awoke his pants were off and he was being groped. This comes after only 11 days since Takei condemned Kevin Spacey for the sexual assault allegations leveled against him.
“When power is used in a non-consensual situation, it is a wrong,” Takei said. “For Anthony Rapp, he has had to live with the memory of this experience of decades ago. For Kevin Spacey, who claims not to remember the incident, he was the older, dominant one who had his way. Men who improperly harass or assault do not do so because they are gay or straight — that is a deflection. They do so because they have the power, and they chose to abuse it.”
Let’s find out how much money George Takei has. All his accuser says he wants is an apology from Takei. So, that means the Star Trek actor’s many millions doesn’t have the potential to be threatened in a court of law. But how many millions exactly?

George Takei’s Sexual Assault Allegations: Full Story
Takei is now being accused by Scott R. Brunton of drugging him and later sexually assaulting him in 1981. He said that they met at a bar, and Takei was consoling him after he broke up with his boyfriend. After they talked, they returned to Takei’s apartment for drinks, and after consuming more alcohol he began “feeling very disoriented and dizzy” and thought he “was going to pass out,” according to an interview with The Hollywood Reporter.
At the time, Brunton was 23 years old, while Takei was 43 or 44 years of age.
“The next thing I remember I was coming to and he had my pants down around my ankles and he was groping my crotch and trying to get my underwear off and feeling me up at the same time, trying to get his hands down my underwear,” Brunton told The Hollywood Reporter. “I came to and said, ‘What are you doing?!’ I said, ‘I don’t want to do this.’”
Bunton was able to escape Takei’s apartment despite alleged pleas for him to “relax” and “get comfortable.”
