My solely heartbreak is for my household. My spouse and I must sit our kids down, one among whom is on the age the place her mates will certainly see the press and ask questions in regards to the nature of those claims, and clarify the cruelty and greed of individuals. I mourn one more lack of innocence. Kids shouldn’t must endure such at their younger age. It’s unfair to must attempt to perceive inexplicable levels of malice meant to destroy households and human spirit.
My coronary heart and help goes out to true victims on this planet, who’ve to look at how their life story is wearing costume for profitability by this ambulance chaser in an inexpensive go well with.
You’ve made a horrible error in judgment pondering that each one “celebrities” are the identical. I’m not out of your world. I’m a younger man who made it out of the venture of Brooklyn.

Solely your community of conspiracy theorists, pretend physics, will imagine the idiotic claims you may have levied in opposition to me that, if not for the seriousness surrounding hurt to youngsters, could be laughable.
I look ahead to exhibiting you simply how completely different I’m.”
