Now we get to the story of Alexander Polinsky<\/strong>, who is a former child actor.  He was kinda the Danny Pintauro <\/strong>of Charles in Charge<\/em><\/strong>.  Polinsky claims that he was on the receiving end of physical abuse, assault, mental torture, sexual harassment, and homophobic bullying by Scott Baio<\/strong>.  The part I took special note of is when Chachi allegedly threw a cup of hot tea in the boy\u2019s face and called him a \u201cfag\u201d.  Now, I\u2019m no expert, but I believe the very definition of the term \u201cfag\u201d is a person who throws hot tea in someone\u2019s face!  Some of Polinksy\u2019s other allegations include Baio once pulling the 12-year-old\u2019s pants down in front of a group of 100 bystanders.  Another time, Scott cut a hole in the canvas wall of Polinsky\u2019s dressing room and shoved his genitals through it.  If pushing your junk through a hole in the wall is a crime, I\u2019ve been a very naughty boy.  I have, however, never had any complaints.<\/p>\n

Polinsky has gone public in order to support his friend and Charles in Charge<\/em> co-star, Nicole Eggert<\/strong>.  Days earlier, Eggert filed sexual assault charges against Baio with the LAPD.  The twosome was joined by everyone\u2019s favorite ambulance chaser, Lisa Bloom<\/strong>.  Polinsky claims his problems with Baio began in an unusual way.  \u201cDuring the first year of the show, when I was 11 or 12, I observed Scott with our co-star Nicole on his lap backstage.  I was so na\u00efve, I innocently hopped on his lap, expecting to hear a story about Fonzie or Happy Days<\/em><\/strong> or something awesome.  Scott Baio was a hero to me.  I was 11 years old.  Instead of telling us a story, Scott immediately threw me off him and began angrily calling me \u2018faggot\u2019 while Nicole laughed.\u201d  We now know that when Eggert was on Baio\u2019s lap, he was often manipulating her vagina with his fingers \u2013 something I suspect Polinsky wasn\u2019t into.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
