Singer Corey Feldman says he had a near-death experience this week “where I felt like I was almost going to be killed” by speeding trucks.
The reason, he hints, is someone trying to stop his efforts to expose a Hollywood pedophile ring that he claims targeted him and the late Corey Haim as children.
The Los Angeles-born former child star says he and his friend Haim were “passed around” among Hollywood pedophiles.
Now Feldman, 46, aims to raise $10 million via Indiegogo to hire security and lawyers. He also wants to make a movie about his experience.
“Ever since I discussed the fact that I have this plan, my life has turned to utter chaos,” Feldman says in a video posted Wednesday. “I’ve been silenced my whole life, but just over the past few days since I made that announcement, I’ve been arrested.”
He says he is proposing a plan that can “literally change the entertainment system as we know it. I believe that I can also bring down, potentially, a pedophile ring that I have been aware of since I was a child. Right off the bat, I can name six names, one of them who is still very powerful today, and a story that links all the way up to a studio. It connects pedophilia to one of the major studios.
“I am very afraid to do this. I’ve been living in fear and I’ve been living with this my entire life, as most victims have. I’ve been made to feel awkward, misunderstood, and I’ve been degraded at great levels.
“Rumors have been told, stories have been made up about me, and I’ve been insulted and degraded in ways that have been unimaginable to me, all because they fear what I know as the truth. And I’m not alone, I know that there’s thousands others who’ve experienced what I’ve experienced in the industry. I also know there [are] peers of mine who know exactly what I’m talking about … that have been afraid to come forward with their own truths.”
