James Marsden, Alan Thicke, more wrote letters of support for convicted child abuser Brian Peck

James Marsden, Alan Thicke, Taran Killam, and 'Boy Meets World' stars Will Friedle and Rider Strong all wrote letters of support for convicted child molester Brian Peck before he was sentenced for abusing Drake Bell.

In the forthcoming docuseries, Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV,Bell reveals that he was the anonymous teenage victim whose testimony led to the 2003 arrest of Peck, whom the actor met while working on The Amanda Show. The letter from future Saturday Night Live cast member Killam, who also stared on The Amanda Show, included the sentence, “I have seen the affects this situations has had on Brian and I know for a fact that he regrets any mistakes made.” Quiet on Set makes a point to note that it is unknown what any of the letter writers were told about Peck's situation, and it's entirely possible documents may have been written in good faith due to misinformation about the case.
