Californian police have said that they have uncovered a tape from Corey Feldman where he has listed the men who abused him in the past. The news comes following Feldman’s claims that he had given a list of names to the Santa Barbra County Sheriff’s Office, of sexual predators in Hollywood during the 1993 investigation into Michael Jackson’s molestation charges.

Feldman made the claims in October; however, despite the sheriff’s office previously denying these reports saying they had no record of the information, they have now claimed that an audio recording has been found from the original 1993 abuse investigation.
Last month Feldman made an appearance on the Today Show where he insisted that he was telling the truth. “I sat down and I gave then names. They’re on record. They have all this information,” he claimed.
“We are aware of the statements that Mr. Feldman is making regarding an investigation in 1993. Our records do not indicate that he named any suspects,” the sheriff’s office said in October. Nevertheless, things have changed in the last three months and the sheriff’s office released some new information this week.

In a statement sent to Fox News, Kelly Hoover, the public information officer with the Sheriff’s Office said “Following the recent inquiries into the Sheriff’s Office interview of Mr. Feldman in 1993, the Santa Barbara County Sheriff’s Office conducted an additional review for any stored items remaining from the Michael Jackson investigation. In a container which included the original reports from the investigation, the Sheriff’s Office located some detective working copies of audio recordings made during the investigation. A copy of Mr. Feldman’s interview was located.”
She explained that the recording has been turned over to the LAPD, and due to the fact that the case involves the alleged sexual abuse of a child, they are unable to comment any further on the evidence related to this case.
Furthermore, during an interview last month with Dr. Oz, Feldman revealed the names of two of his alleged abusers. He claimed that actor Jon Grissom, his former assistant was the first to take advantage of him in the 1980’s.
During his interview with Dr. Oz, Feldman said “This guy on his My Space page and his Facebook page has got pictures of me and Corey Haim. He still taunts it and flaunts it.” What’s more, Dr. Oz’s legal team uncovered Grissom’s criminal past including a child molestation conviction many years ago.
In a video posted to Facebook, an attorney for Dr. Oz said that Grissom “has an extensive arrest record” from assault, theft and drugs to being currently in violation of reporting following a 2001 arrest on child molestation charges.
In a separate interview with Megyn Kelly, Feldman also publicly names Marty Weiss, a former child talent manager and convicted sex offender as one of his abusers. In 2012 Weiss was sentenced to a year in jail with five years probation for two counts of child molestation. However, he was released immediately after entering a plea for time served.

Corey Feldman has been trying to raise upwards of $10 million to finance a film he claims will expose a ring of Hollywood pedophiles. He claims this ring molested both he and childhood friend Corey Haim on numerous occasions.

Feldman is said to feel vindicated following the LAPD’s recent findings and hopes they will now re-open the case.
