LAPD investigating 28 Hollywood or media sex-crime claims

The LAPD says it has 28 open sex-crime investigations linked to Hollywood and the media, and that it expects more will come.

As well as the investigations it currently has open, the force has also passed on 37 cases to other jurisdictions where it believes the crimes may have occurred.

'We anticipate the LAPD and other jurisdictions will receive even more high profile sex crime reports in the coming weeks and months,' Police Chief Charlie Beck told the LA Times.

'We encourage all victims of sexual assault to come forward to report these crimes.'
