The people saying he's speaking out because of money or because he wants to make a "comeback" are disgusting. He declined doing the documentary multiple times. He was approached years ago by another documentary, and when he declined, they made him feel like HE was the problem because he wasn't ready. He had MANY reservations to come forward, rightfully so after that first experience. It wasn't until he started therapy that he decided to do this one. His story is going to help the industry, and other survivors heal. I'm so proud of Drake. He has great things ahead of him.

@@freddyharrison877 Snow questions Bell about this situation during their conversation. “It could sound to some people like a contradiction, that you’re speaking out about your own past and trying to help other children avoid being abused, and yet you pleaded guilty to doing something with a younger girl,” she says. “Of course. But I also think that there is a picture that a lot of people are painting of a cycle of abuse,” he replies. “‘Oh, well, he did to someone else what has been done to him.’” He considers that a “difficult parallel to make.” He adds, “I should never have engaged with anybody online, even if I knew what their age was. Anything like that … absolutely should not have happened. But it’s a very difficult parallel to make, between that and what I endured at 14 years old, the physical abuse that I went through, the things that (Peck) had done to me, over, and over, and over, and how dark it got.”

@@mayflower7811 There's nothing to "agree to disagree" with. You only can speak for yourself. Yeah, he should be proud of himself for speaking out about his abuse, but he became a predator himself when had inappropriate messages with a 12 to 15-year-old girl. Yes, I know you're probably going to say, "She lied about her age" and/or "He stopped talking to her once he found out her age." that can be true, but it doesn't change the fact that a crime was still committed. Bell is both a victim and a predator and yes, two things can be true at once.

@@BMFstudiosNYC He only moved to Mexico a few months ago-- years after his sentencing in 2021, if you're trying to imply that he fled the country lol. He's genuinely much more popular in Mexico than in the US, so the move is practical.
