The truth is my allegations about Daman Mills were false.

When Daman left our friend group back in 2015 we were angry at him and I guess a little jealous because his career was starting to take off. I had a stupid idea about how to get back at him, so I wrote this document accusing him of all this stuff. Another friend talked me out of posting it at the time because it wasn't true, but then this year, when I heard him in a show I grew up watching, Dragon Ball, and heard he might be taking over one of the roles, I guess I just got angry about the way I feel like he just kind of disowned us. And I used the stuff from the old document to lash out.

It wasn't right, and I have no excuse except that I was in a really bad place at the time. I know that isn't really an excuse, and I am so sorry. This isn't who I am and I had no idea how much pain all
this was going to cause him. I was just angry, and I wanted him to feel sorry for just abandoning me.

The screenshots I provided were made up and not real at all, or happened between friends of ours and we just changed the names and stuff. The screenshot from Brian about being unrequited was one of the only ones that was real. Daman and I never dated. By the time he said that, we weren't close any more, but sharing a bed and joking before that was all consensual, and he did not do those other things we accused him off.

Like we literally never touched each other like that, and there definitely wasn't sex or a rape like people keep hinting at implying on the internet and on forums. Daman literally hadn't even had his first real kiss the whole time I knew him. He was pretty shy and awkward back then. But he was honestly an amazing friend like 90% of the time and someone who was really important to me. I was just angry because I felt like he didn't want to have any of his old friends in his life anymore, and I did something stupid. I didn't know how to stop this once it started. I kind of hoped that when Daman's attorney sent those screenshots that proved what I said wasn't true, the story would stop, but I quess it was too late for any of us to stop it.

People on the internet keep coming up with random conspiracy theories about why I've retracted my allegations, but they're are all wrong. I haven't been pressured by Daman's lawyer to retract my statement. I literally haven't heard from them in months. I also haven't been contacted by anyone in the industry about any of this. I don't even think they know who I am? And no one reached out to me about Daman being suicidal, or pressured me to retract. I don't even know where people came up with that one, but it's not true. I haven't talked to anyone about this except one reporter, my attorney, and a few close friends, and none of them pressured me to do anything. It might not be what people want to hear, but I'm just trying to do the right thing now.
