"I have a lot of respect and admiration for Anthony Rapp as an actor," Spacey's statement, released on Twitter , reads. "I'm beyond horrified to hear his story. I honestly do not remember the encounter, it would have been over 30 years ago. But if did behave then as he describes, I owe him the sincerest apology for what would have been deeply inappropriate drunken behavior, and I am sorry for the feelings he describes having carried with him all these years."
