Alexander Polinsky, who played “Adam Powell” on the hit TV show “Charles in Charge” from 1987-1990, called out Scott Baio on Twitter. We’ll let the former-child star speak for himself:
Hey @ScottBaio I need to speak with you regarding those things we talked about on the phone a few years ago. Please follow me so I can DM you.

Nicole Eggert, who also starred on the show, quickly told her followers to retweet Polinsky’s comment:

Nicole Eggert, born Jan. 13, 1972, has said in the past that she lost her virginity at 17 to Baio, born Sept. 22, 1960.
The tweets from Polinsky continued (and got worse):

So @MrsScottBaio sent me a DM. I don’t know her.
I asked for @scottbaio to DM me. I was his costar when I was a child, for 4 years & 100+episodes of Charles in Charge. It’s not like he doesn’t know me.Pls RT the tweet at the TOP OF MY FEED. Thanks for all the awesome support.

Here’s what I want. I want @ScottBaio to write me by DM. Thx but I don’t need any other contact info or for anyone else to be a go-between. I‘m not comfortable communicating with him on the phone at this time.
I hope he reaches out. Pls RT my tweet at the top so he will DM me.

For 30 years I’ve held in the embarrassment and shame of being abused daily on the set of Charles in Charge. I had to watch other children be abused as well. It was devastating, destroyed me personally and made me an angry person for many years. I’m not embarrassed anymore. RT!

If you are in reaction to abuse…it doesn’t matter how long ago…those wounds are real. I am sending out massive love to you. Together we can bring our abusers to the light and see them crumble to dust like the vampires they are. ❤️?#ForeverEndeavor

My abuser thought he was above the law, above morality and beyond judgment.
To the quiet ones, the shy ones, the different, the unique ones, and you too.
Fuck the pedos, the abusers and the sleazy womanizers…
We are in charge now.
