Scott Baio is now being accused of physical an possible sexual abuse by Charles in Charge co-star Alexander Polinsky who has retained attorney Lisa Bloom to represent him

Polinsky is the second Baio accuser to emerge following “Charles in Charge” star Nicole Eggert, who has also alleged Baio sexually abused her as a minor. Eggert is also represented by Bloom.

Polinsky will speak out at a press conference on Wednesday, which Eggert will also attend.

Last week Nicole Eggert appeared on an episode of The Talk and Alexander released a statement to back up her claims and add his own.

“Working on the set of Charles in Charge from age 11 to 15 was no picnic, it was a toxic environment,” he said. “I witnessed Scott Baio acting inappropriately towards Nicole Eggert during my first year of working on the show. I walked in on them together behind the set. Nicole was on Scott‘s lap and he did not appreciate my intrusion. He yelled at me and called me various homophobic slurs. Growing up on the show I received regular verbal attacks, mental abuse and I also suffered a physical assault at the hands of Scott Baio.”

Nicole Eggert, former “Charles in Charge” star, accused out-spoken Trump supporter and former actor Scott Baio of molested her when she was his 14-year-old co-star on “Charles in Charge” 

“It started when I was 14,” Eggert tweeted. “Wasn’t a one-time deal.”

Baio — who played college student “Charles,” caretaker to Eggert’s young character “Jamie,” eldest of the three Powell siblings in the 1980s .

“Ask @scottbaio what happened in his garage at his house when I was a minor. Creep,” Eggert tweeted, replying to a mention of Baio on Twitter.

She then accused Baio of digitally penetrating her beginning at age 14.

Eggert alleges that she was between 14 and 17 years old when the abuse took place, adding that she covered it up for years.

Baio issued a statement on Facebook calling her claims “100% lies.

Baio acknowledged that the pair did have sex, but claims it was consensual, and that Eggert would have been at least 18 years old at the time of the encounter.

“I remember her calling me and asking me to come over and coming in my house one time, and seducing me,” Baio said into the camera.

“Any normal heterosexual, red-blooded American guy, the outcome would have been the same,” he said.

Baio slammed Eggert for making the claims on social media, rather than filing a complaint with police.

“If you have a claim, go to the police. There is a special unit there that handles this kind of stuff,” Baio said

“If you have a real claim, you go to the real people, not to social media where people like me get beat up,” he added
