Drake Bell further details past abuse allegations against him: I 'was incredibly irresponsible'

Drake Bell is giving further details about the abuse allegations he faced before pleading guilty to sending inappropriate text messages to a minor in 2017: I 'was incredibly irresponsible.'

“I was being investigated, and that was really difficult on my family, and thankfully through 18 months of subpoenaing my social media and computers and witnesses and everything, it turned out a lot of most of what was being accused of me was not true.” During the sentencing hearing, Bell’s victim characterized the actor as "the epitome of evil," claiming he began grooming her when she was 12 and eventually allegedly sexually abused her at 15. NBC News reported that Bell's accuser claimed to have received extensive vitriol online following the release of Quiet on Set.
