There are just a lot of sex offenders in Hollywood. There are some whose names are already popular in the public eye and then there are some that are still kept a secret. Charlie Chaplin is one of those people who are considered “legends” in Hollywood. The only problem is that he has his own preference to woo girls that are younger than him. It is normal for him to impregnate girls who are 16 years of age.

He was threatened with statutory rape in the past but there was nothing that came out of it. It seems that Chaplin had an unbalanced childhood which caused him to be the way that he was. Is he the worst sex offender? It would depend on what people would consider to be bad to begin with.

Charlie Chaplin was a comedic actor, movie director, and one of the founders of United Artists Pictures, which is a major Hollywood film studio. He is also one of the worst sex offenders of all time. Some of the specific details of Charlie Chaplin’s private life have been disgusting to hear. He was also abusive to women. Just ask his second wife, Lita Grey.

Chaplin met Grey when she was eight years old, and when she was 16, she became pregnant with Charlie Chaplin’s child. Grey’s mother threatened Chaplin and told him that she would report him if he did not marry her daughter. Under California law, Chaplin could have been prosecuted for statutory rape.

The two were married on November 25th, 1924. When she filed for divorce, the papers stated that the reason was that Chaplin wanted her to perform very degrading sexual acts. She claimed that Chaplin forced her to perform these acts. It has also been said that Chaplin liked to bed younger girls, and he supposedly had sexual relations with more than 2,000 women.

Charlie Chaplin was popularly known as a sex offender. However, I think he should not be regarded as the worst sex offender in Holly wood. Charlie stood out as a sex offender because of his interest in girls. Charlie's story with women was a unique and interesting one. Charlie's first divorce was with his first child bride Mildred Harris in 1927. Charlie divorced her three days after the death of their baby on the ground that they were “Irreconcilably mismated” this caused an uproar but later died because he was the most famous man at that time.

I personally do not think that Charlie Chaplin is the worst sex offender in Hollywood, although I believe that he hid behind a persona that made people like him even if he was doing a lot of bad things behind people’s backs. One of the most obvious things about Charlie Chaplin is that he preferred girls.

Some of these women bore his children, and the reason why they did not have a good experience is because of Chaplin’s sadistic tendencies.

Hollywood is a place filled with sex offenders. Yet, the industry chooses to keep their actions hidden, even in death. One of those people is famed actor Charlie Chaplin. Though he is a motion picture legend and genius, he had an issue where he engaged inappropriately with underage children. The first victim of his was Mildred Harris. The start of his encounters with her are unknown, but eventually, she ended up pregnant and was forced to have his child.

Chaplin feared being looked at for statutory rape, so he ended up marrying Harris. They eventually divorced and Chaplin went on to have a younger victim, which was Lita Mac Murray. She was six when they met and got pregnant at sixteen. That pregnancy resulted in an abortion.

Charlie Chaplin has been called “the only true genius motion pictures ever produced.” He had a depraved affinity for children. Chaplin's first underage victim was Mildred Harris. While is unclear when their relationship began, Harris gave birth to a child by Chaplin. To keep from being prosecuted for statutory rape, Chaplin married Harris.
