I Raped Luce Kid, 13 (Time mag heiress asked lover to rape her daughter in “the swinging ‘60s”)
NY Post ^ | October 2, 2006 | Philip Recchia

A former lover of Time magazine heiress Leila Hadley Luce says he bedded the socialite's daughter when she was just 13 - at the urging of the child's mother.

John Palcewski says he "committed statutory rape" by having sex with Victoria Barlow in 1967 after Leila Luce allegedly told him, "Maybe it would be better if she lost her virginity to someone like you."

But Palcewski says the girl wasn't a virgin - and that the whole incident was wrapped up in the mores of the "swinging '60s."

The $20 million suit also alleges Henry Luce III, 81, sexually abused Nicholson's daughter, now 17.

In a recent deposition for her sister's suit, Barlow says Leila Luce purposely incited Palcewski's lust for her.

One day, while Barlow was in the hallway on her way to her room after taking a shower, Leila Luce "pulled the towel off me in front of John," she says. That incident was part of "a pattern . . . of [Leila] setting up situations in which we children would be abused," Barlow says in her sworn deposition.

The night of the towel incident, Barlow says in her deposition, "I walked into the den . . . to talk with him . . . and we had sex …

Palcewski does not dispute Barlow's account of his single sexual encounter with her.

"I don't want my 15 minutes of fame to be as some perverted child molester,"

An odd way to prevent that would be to call up a major newspaper and admit that you’re a perverted child molester.

I'm pretty sure he married her when she was 6, generously waiting for her to mature to 9 before deflowering her.

Ahhhhh, the lives of the rich and infamous.

Bet they were and are proponents of abortion, euthanasia and racial cleansing too. Having no regard for life, they have to be.

He should have directed some edgy movies first - then no one would ever mention it.

I'm confused. So did the man who is being accused (or admitting) to sleeping with the 13 year claim that the 'mother wanted it'(as if that can make a grown man sleep with a 13 year old, whatEVER) or is the daughter claiming it?

Eitherway, sleazeball alert.

And the guy doesn't look 81.

Pardon me, the Parlowski guy is 64. I have no idea who the 81 year old is and how he fits in with the "Nicholson" girl who is 17.

This is one of the most confusing articles I have ever read.

The rapist and the victim are both claiming that the mother wanted him to do it.

For reasons only he can fathom, the rapist seems to think that this clears him of the accusation that he's a "perverted child molester."

I see. Yes, this follows in the mindset that it wasn't abuse because the child 'wanted it'.

Henry Luce used his own money to defend Whittacker Chambers from the defamation lawsuit filed by the spy Alger Hiss and after Chambers showed Nixon where he had hidden the 'Pumpkin Papers' in a hollowed out pumpkin in his pumpkin patch. Chambers was foreign affairs editor for Time Magazine but resigned to save the magazine any embarrassment about his spy dealings.

William Buckley asked Chambers to be a starting partner with him when starting National Review but declined for the same reason.

BTW, Chambers, Luce, Nixon and McCarthy (Joe) became close friends.

Chambers won his case against Hiss and Hiss went to prison.

The 81 year old was married to Mom. Don't know if he was Dad or step-dad.

Also the writer calls him the "the late Henry Luce III" but then gives his age as 81. Is he dead or alive?

Very confusing article.
