Viraldice: Scott Baio’s ‘Charles in Charge’ Costar Accuses Him of Molesting Her When She Was 14

weet Jesus, where to start.

Scott Baio has denied, unequivocally, that he molested Nicole Eggert, his Charles in Charge costar, when she was underage. The denial comes after Eggert accused the actor of molesting her from age 14 to 17 via a series of tweets.

Eggert began the tweetstorm in response to an unrelated political tweet mocking Baio, who is an ardent Trump supporter.

 

“Scott Baio was not able to go with the President to Switzerland but in support he will only be using Swiss cheese on all the subs he makes at Subway on his shift tonight,” the original tweet read.

Eggert replied, “Ask @scottbaio what happened in his garage at his house when I was a minor. Creep,” and then she launched into a series of now-deleted tweets alleging that the sexual abuse “started when I was 14. Wasn’t a one-time deal.”

In response, Baio blasted the actress via a lengthy Facebook Live session as well as Twitter, saying her accusations were “100% lies.”

“I am here today to talk about some allegations that have been made against me that are untrue by somebody named Nicole Eggert,” Baio said in the Facebook Live post, which was recorded by his wife Renee.

 

“The reason I’m doing Facebook Live is because nobody can edit me, nobody can change what I said. These are my words,” Baio said. “And I’m telling you the truth. So I’m going to knock down all these false claims against me.”

But the truth isn’t so cut and dry.
