Dennis Hopper, former actor, filmmaker and artist is in the news but this time it is his 21 year old son that is the lead actor. Henry Hopper is being accused of raping a 15 year old girl after he plied her with drink and drugs.

Henry is the only son of the Dennis whose successful career in Hollywood was ended on May 29th 2010 from Prostate cancer in Venice California.

Henry Hopper, 21, had communications with the girl on social networking site Facebook severally before he invited her to his home in LA, California, according to the legal documents.

According to the girl, Henry waited till she was intoxicated with booze and drugs then “engaged in sexually offensive conduct with her.”

Legal documents accuse Hopper of plying the girl with drugs and alcohol at his home in Venice California before having sex with her, including forced oral copulation and sodomy.

Her lawyer says the young actor “preyed upon a young impressionable child, suggesting that he cared for her.” He went on to further accused Hopper of “luring her into his home with promises of alcohol and illegal drugs, and then repeatedly taking advantage of her youth and vulnerability.”

Hopper is now being sued for unspecified damages by the girl’s mother, who says her daughter met Hopper through a mutual friend in February 2011. She also claims the girl has been emotionally damaged and has sought treatment from psychiatrists.

It is not clear however if the girl reported the matter to the police.

He portrayed three small characters in the 1996 movie. He did not act again until he starred in Gus Van Zant’s Restless 5 years later in 2011.

Attempts to reach Hopper on the matter were unsuccessful.
