@dustindailey My husband often works out of state, which on average is 1.5-2hr drive. He listens to books on audio and one of the first books he listened to was Jeanette's and he said the stuff her mom did to her was gross and weird. He said it was a good book though.
DARVO is short for "deny, attack, reverse order of victim and offender." This term is used in abuse survivor circles and psychology. Now that there's more talk about victimization, abusers are commonly framing themselves as victims. It's so common.
Very true. Gotta thank her for making that horrible apology video though. If she didn't then we wouldn't have gotten that beautiful MeatCanyon video. Haha

It's easy to say as a commenter on UA-cam, but the culture in Hollywood is very unforgiving. If the parent of a child actor says "This is kinda weird" their kids acting career is OVER. The problem is, a lot of these parents live through their kids careers since they didn't get to have one of their own. Read Jeanette McCurdy's memoir. If you give anyone in the industry the impression that you are difficult, it's over. Drake Bell got Drake and Josh as hush money. Dan Schneider basically ran Nickelodeon. Any mention that Schneider did something wrong meant that your career would be reduced to an improv comedy trope in the Midwest, and that's it.
What so he's not in jail? Sure there has to be some proof, I don't know what's the case with this guy but you would hope people think before they hire him to work with children or that he himself has the sence to stay away after accusations.

I'm sure there are other former child actors that have come out to expose the industry, but either they have been labeled as "crazy" or have been "silenced."
Corey Feldman already made another documentary about the children that were abused by Brian Peck. Cory Haim I think was one of them. However, a lot of people has said it’s Charlie Sheen, which would check out considering Brian Peck ended up on 2 1/2 men after he got out of jail.
I have a feeling that ever since Britney's conservatorship along with Alexa coming out was when it became the beginning of the end for nickelodeon and Jennette's book sped it up.
Drake Bell was a child victim of the industry and the predators within in it that take advantage of working with young children, but he is also a predator himself. Two things can be true at the same time, he is a classic case of the cycle of abuse. Drake breaking his silence is huge for the victims of Hollywood but I also hope he is taking the time to cycle break and deal with his trauma in a more productive manner…
But that’s what happens in Hollywood Hollywood the printed the people who were prayed on become the predators because that’s the cycle of Hollywood Hollywood has demonic roots in that industry sensitive since its inception cycles of abuse have been happening for about 100 years in Hollywood. just nobody said anything because they didn’t want to lose their career.

It’s always blamed on drugs or mental health. But never once do they look into what caused the drug use, or the mental break? There’s always a reason people end up there. Hopefully those people are given a little more empathy from the public & media.
As good as it is that Drake was able to come forward about what happened to him, it still doesn’t excuse what he did & how horribly he handled being exposed.
You ever stop riding the medias dick and actually do research yourself? Im not explaining how he was lied to from a minor pretending to be older than they were. Google is a click away
From every comment Ive read so far, Drake was not guilty of anything except being catfished by a minor. Apparently her own family has come out and said she was lying.
Drake and Josh was SUCH a fun show to watch. I was already in my early 20's, but it was my guilty pleasure. It was my little secret that I'd get home from work and watch Drake and Josh.
I hope you’re able to make copies or digitally store it! I have Caitlyn’s Way burned onto a stack of Discs from back then! It’s one of my favorite things in my sentimental box 🫶

I was a Nickelodeon and a TGIF kid too!! When my mom was in the hospital/nursing home for a time I’d go and watch the shows until I had to say goodbye to her. I read Jeanette McCurdy’s book last year and it was very sad to hear what a lot of these young actors went through. Thank you for sharing the story
when youre explaining stuff try showing the documents and stuff to show more things in the video. shit like that scratches my brain you feel me. keep doing you
I swear I always knew for some reason deep down that Brian Pecks unnamed victim was Drake Bell. & it’s sad that Drake went on to continue perpetrating this cycle of abuse..🥺
Honestly, I didn't like Nick sitcoms as much as their cartoons, because something always felt off. The actors just never seemed to feel comfortable on set.
@@dustindailey Hey babe! I’m finally breaking down & going to sub to the patreon so I can finally watch the podcast about the whole Voldemort cosmetics thing (😂) because it never got posted to memberships on here but I can’t find your patreon. What’s it called? I tried to search it up but no luck! Please lmk! W love alwayssss 🥰
As an child rape victim myself I think it’s important that we look into facts properly, I’m no drake fan but I believe he was found to be innocent and a lot of lies that the girl told were revealed. It was also brought to light that the girl was in an adult forum and drake believed that she was of consenting age. As for the rest of your message I completely agree!
I feel for Drake. I hope he sues or gets justice from what Nickelodeon has done to him, and how they took away, his childhood and his soul. I Know what he’s done to others is wrong, however when you’re abused in your mind that becomes normalized and all the adults around him were predators. Of course he’s not gonna know better and thinks what he’s doing isn’t wrong
I was blown away seeing Drake Bell walk in after I watched Sloan’s video maybe a couple days before and he said it was Drake Bell. It doesn’t excuse his crime but I do want to hear him speak.
Why weren’t they protecting those babies?!?! I feel there needs to be someone protecting child actors. This whole thing makes my stomach sick. Hollywood needs to be brought down! I was a huge Boy meets world fan!
It's because his kind always has protections and connections. That's why they never truly get punished. The only one that actually got any was Epstein.
Terrible what so many child and adult actors go through. On a different note Drake Bell came to my college in Alpine, Tx for a Halloween concert in 2015. Apparently he was hitting on all the college girls 😅
@@dustindailey so many of the other college kids were so disappointed when they heard it was Drake Bell and not Drake lol. Didn’t know how to brake it to them that Drake wouldn’t be coming to a small country college town 😂
2:41 the major red flag isn't that he worked with Dan Schneider a lot. It's that he worked with Dan Schneider AND Bryan Singer a lot. That's an insane trifecta right there
@annjepsen1621 He was cruel to Haim too. Haims family has been begging for him and the media not to allow him to use Haims name or past anymore. Haim said he wasn't a friend to him.
I feel like these insane issues either child actors goes back far beyond what we can imagine. For those old folks out here, we remember Cory haim and Cory Feldman talking about this stuff in the 80s
To explain your question of why did they plea it down to two charges. It allows for the state to secure a conviction and avoid a trial. Avoiding a trial means the victim doesn't have to testify or be cross examined. Most child abuse cases end in plea deals for this reason.
I’m curious if he was paid an NDA to keep quiet? Because it appears that it has been exactly 20 years since the case was wrapped up. That’s a nice even number. Any idea?
I am still proud of Drake for finally speaking out against Dan, Brian, and Nickelodeon. However, Drake is still taking a big risk, and I don't just mean with his own legal troubles. What I mean is Drake, like so many Nick stars under Dan Schinder, signed the NDA agreement. So even though I am glad Drake did this. I just wonder what's going to happen to him now
I think about Amanda Bynes who lived with Dan, she was amazing and I am sure she has the most trauma. Ariana Grande too, no wonder she is the way she is because of what Dan made her do. It’s disgusting…prayers for anyone who worked with Dan and Brian. Good for Drake for speaking out and exposing these perverts
Amanda was one of the first few child stars from Nick to start having problems and this was back in 2011/2012 but unlike her Kel Mitchell was going through his own demons but it wasn't so publicly talked about until just recently where his Ex wife came out of no where and began talking about all the things that happened when they were together. Ariana on the other hand is a whole different case. There's no doubt in my mind she went through some horrible things when at Nick but how in the hell was she able to launch a successful music career and shine brighter than all of the former Disney stars? She's the only one from Nick that was able to fully transition while Miranda and Victoria weren't so lucky.
Keep up the great work! I am so glad these videos are being made. I was molested by my father and seeing all these stories come to light in recent years brings more awareness to all these dark and twisted predators out there.
Nickelodeons Live-Action scene is infamous for extremely questionable hiring acts. Brian Peck aint the only predator they employed, Dan hired several. There were even a few that were on the Registry at the time of hiring.
Nothing can take back the horrible things Drake did but the fact that he's coming forward and at least doing his part to expose predators certainly brings back a bit of my respect for Him.
@@badkitty101 are you serious??? That's insane. So was any of the claims against him true ? I know there was not just one. There was something about grooming as well. Either way though I'm happy to hear that.
Drake’s dad was amazing at taking care of him, and the fact that he warned the mother and she still let him go to Bryan’s place… I think there needs to be some accountability on Drake’s mom‘s part. What kind of mother lets their son stay at a strange man’s house? Even after the father warned her.
There are all kinds of age gap friendships when you’re into things like music and screen. When I was 16 my band mates were 15, 35, 42, and 76. I played with a very gifted 13 year old guitar player in my 20s. The thing is, nobody was tryna touch any pp. That part is crucial. People can be professional at any age, but they can also be unprofessional at any age. People should know better than to do sus shit when they’re being trusted not to be sus.
I wish people can just ask the most important questions rather than fucking criticize Drake. Did Josh KNOW?? They were on the same set for a long time, I don’t believe Josh didn’t know something. Is this why Drake was mad at Josh for the wedding?? Think about WHO else would Drake consider a friend WHILE being on set being molested?? Josh. He felt closest to him and TBH rewatching Drake and Josh, it’s hard to stomach knowing what happened to Drake. Idk why y’all focus on still saying “well he did”…..wow that’s just BS I’m sorry but it is and y’all can try to be politically correct but that’s not what this is about
@@Quit3Cut3 Which I believe because many channels that dive into the Drake and Josh show, they say Josh was jealous and jealous people won’t believe ANYTHING if it doesn’t add up in their minds. I know people dislike Drake for his actions, even if they were proven false 💀💀, but it still doesn’t add up that the public can’t wrap their heads around a child being extremely sexually abused and had to hide it for years and the network gave them a show with their name on it as a compensation and HE TOOK IT because of how successful it became. Isn’t it weird that maybe Drake WANTED a teen heartthrob character because a man was abusing him and that was his way of saying “See I’m not gay” like that’s fucked
I think he did, but maybe not the extent. I don’t want to make assumptions but I think it was a situation where Josh was one of the kids who WASN’T abused and from what he claims, even treated well, so he was able to turn a blind eye more easily.
@@calebreynolds9183 I’m not holding that against him it’s more so understanding Drake a bit more now. When he was just John Doe in that case we could’ve judged him as being nuts and crazy but now it’s understandable that maybe he felt Josh was the only real friend he had and to be told “We aren’t close” when he thought they were it’s kinda up in the air for me as if Josh knew or he didn’t know? Definitely won’t hold it against him because he was also a child
I like all your videos but I really have been enjoying the ones recently where you've been discussing crime issues, like the messages in the food and this video. It's so sad that people do this to children.
Wasn't sure what to make of this Dustin dude at the beginning of this, but I'm impressed with what he has said and I learned a lot. Brett Cooper did a video on the subject and I wanted to know more, and now I do. Good video.
This is just blowing my mind in too many ways that I'm not sure I have capacity to keep up with. Thank you, for your always right to the darn point videos (not that I mind long ones) I just appreciate yours. Also listening to your voice is nice. You're a precious bean, 🫶🏻
"You should be on death row" My guy I don't know you but I appreciate and wholly agree with that statement. - The reality is these people abusing children are literally setting that child up for a lifetime of problems and trauma. - It may not be taking a life but it has every potential to ruin one. We shouldn't have to share air with these kinds of people.
🍍 I can’t wait to watch this! I’m ready to hear what Drake has to say. It’s sad because he ended up in a similar position but the accuser was found to be lying under oath. He did admit to talking to her but once he knew how old he was he blocked her. That’s what he admitted too. I know there’s more but it’s sad that he was being abused.
Bro im glad your speaking on this. This news is a slap in the face to all of us 90s kids its sad these young adults had to endure this crap. Im glad i never got to get on these shows and so sick.
@@JNB520He still took advantage of a child himself. There are people who’ve been abused and don’t become abusers. I don’t feel there’s really an excuse but it’s difficult to point blame.
He didn't plead guilty to SA!!!! Even the judge said that. Her aunt brought her to his hotel in Dec 2017 and they continued going to his concerts in 2018. @@dustindailey
@@JustineSalisbury he did get charged with it, it doesn’t matter your opinion. If you look at his background he was charged with a sex offense against a child. You’re a weirdo and going to every comment defending him. You are probably a pedo defender.
Aside from all the dark disgusting stuff involving kids ....anyone remember the hillbillie skit from The Amanda Show when Amanda would chase Drake around with that damn ham hock?! Lol it just popped in my head so I pulled up a clip of that skit right here on UA-cam and now Im straight up wheezing laughing! 😄😂
This whole situation is just heartbreaking. It just goes to show how the cycle of abuse can affect someone from being a victim to a perpetrator. This is a situation where empathy and accountability both play a role. I feel for Drake’s younger self. He was a child thrown into an adult’s world and his abuser saw that and completely took advantage of his trust. I wouldn’t be surprised if the trauma changed his perspective on trust, relationships, etc. With that being said, current adult Drake needs to take accountability of his actions. There’s no reason anyone over the age of 20/30 should be trying to flirt with a child. Especially someone who looked up to you, knowing that you have the upper hand based on your status. I can’t wait to see what this expose has to offer, but at the end of the day, I hope anyone affected by this generational trauma finds peace one day
Apparently he was charged only with endangerment of a minor because he flirted with her without knowing her actual age, no photos were shared and he never knowingly made in person contact with her and even blocked her account once he found out she was underaged.
@@loricawley54 I know that it doesn’t, I just say that to say that there is credence to the cycle of abuse. The abuser has usually been abused too; it all depends on the person you are. I can sympathize with you; I’ve been through those things as well, and I never thought of hurting anyone in the same way.
"How can there be so many people on set and none of them know..." Denial. I have friends who were CSA victims and SA victims. I've talked with a couple of their parents... it's abject denial. Many people see the signs right in front of them, but they don't want to. Not just they choose not to see it, or they're too afraid or too selfish to say anything... It is such a horrid and terrifying thought to them that they do everything they can to reject it, to convince themselves that it isn't happening, until they can't deny it any longer. It all comes out, and many of these people are shocked, and horrified, and they feel horrible because they could have done something, but it's not an act... We see fiction represent someone having selective amnesia after a traumatic event, but this is a good example of that in real life on a smaller scale. The reality in front of them is too gut-wrenching for them to wrap their minds around, so they gaslight themselves. And it's not an excuse, it's sick and frustrating, and we as a society need to learn not to ignore the signs.
Yeah I don't doubt this at all. Not just with all that has come out with Dan Schneider, but also with what Drake ended up doing. When I heard about what he did I was like, "another victim of the kids who grew up in nickelodeon."
My sister in law Used to work for Nickelodeon as a graphic design artist!!!! She worked for them for yeeeaarrrss at least like 7 or 8 years!!!! And couple WEEKS AGO SHE and 800 other people GOT LAID OF FROM the JOB! I wonder if this has anything to do with it
A minor pursuing an adult is a thing that happens, and it is 100% up to the adult to *know better* and remove themselves from that situation. The minor does not know better, that's why we don't allow them to drink, vote, marry, etc. Teenagers want to think themselves mature and wise, we were all there, so it is up to the adults to understand the limitations better than the kids. Anything else is just disgusting.

There’s always a reason people end up there.
Hopefully those people are given a little more empathy from the public & media.
Much respect for citing your sources
As good as it is that Drake was able to come forward about what happened to him, it still doesn’t excuse what he did & how horribly he handled being exposed.
For all we know, this could’ve been a wake up call for him.
You ever stop riding the medias dick and actually do research yourself? Im not explaining how he was lied to from a minor pretending to be older than they were. Google is a click away
For who knows, this may be a wake up call for all male child stars, including disney and nick stars.@@skyofthelivingdead
@@skyofthelivingdead If it's a wake up call he better stay away from kids from here on out.
From every comment Ive read so far, Drake was not guilty of anything except being catfished by a minor. Apparently her own family has come out and said she was lying.
What’s crazy is that having an association with Bryan Singer & Dan Schneider literally means he harms boys & young men
Drake and Josh was SUCH a fun show to watch. I was already in my early 20's, but it was my guilty pleasure. It was my little secret that I'd get home from work and watch Drake and Josh.
I loved Nick at night and Are You Afraid of the Dark. I have all the episodes on a hard drive. I miss being a kid. Take me back 😭
those shows were SO iconic
dont loose em

I hope you’re able to make copies or digitally store it! I have Caitlyn’s Way burned onto a stack of Discs from back then! It’s one of my favorite things in my sentimental box 🫶

love the set up! thanks for spreading light on this!
I'm going to save this video to listen to while I clean this week but I saw your set up and HAD to comment how much I love it!
thank you so much 😊
He sounds like Mary Kay Leturno with that "the 12 year old pursued me!"
so disgusting
If y'all have not seen May December, it is absolutely horrifying.
Nooo literally little i hared her so much
I was a Nickelodeon and a TGIF kid too!! When my mom was in the hospital/nursing home for a time I’d go and watch the shows until I had to say goodbye to her.
I read Jeanette McCurdy’s book last year and it was very sad to hear what a lot of these young actors went through.
Thank you for sharing the story
It’s sad that the abuse cycle continued. I hope Drake Bell gets the help that he needs.
when youre explaining stuff try showing the documents and stuff to show more things in the video. shit like that scratches my brain you feel me. keep doing you
not a bad idea
I swear I always knew for some reason deep down that Brian Pecks unnamed victim was Drake Bell. & it’s sad that Drake went on to continue perpetrating this cycle of abuse..🥺
so much this!
Honestly, I didn't like Nick sitcoms as much as their cartoons, because something always felt off. The actors just never seemed to feel comfortable on set.
Drake’s been found innocent though…
@@jackfranzino7887 Source? Just wanna make sure XD
@@dustindailey Hey babe! I’m finally breaking down & going to sub to the patreon so I can finally watch the podcast about the whole Voldemort cosmetics thing (😂) because it never got posted to memberships on here but I can’t find your patreon.

W love alwayssss 🥰
Remember, don't let him being a victim excuse him from his criminal acts. Victims can choose to stop the cycle with help.
💯
This!! My father SA’d me for 8 yrs of my childhood. I have never abused anyone. It’s disgusting to perpetuate abuse on others! 🤬🤮🤮🤬
Drake’s been found innocent though
As an child rape victim myself I think it’s important that we look into facts properly, I’m no drake fan but I believe he was found to be innocent and a lot of lies that the girl told were revealed. It was also brought to light that the girl was in an adult forum and drake believed that she was of consenting age. As for the rest of your message I completely agree!
@@jackfranzino7887true she lied
I feel for Drake. I hope he sues or gets justice from what Nickelodeon has done to him, and how they took away, his childhood and his soul. I Know what he’s done to others is wrong, however when you’re abused in your mind that becomes normalized and all the adults around him were predators. Of course he’s not gonna know better and thinks what he’s doing isn’t wrong
I was blown away seeing Drake Bell walk in after I watched Sloan’s video maybe a couple days before and he said it was Drake Bell. It doesn’t excuse his crime but I do want to hear him speak.
Drake’s been found innocent btw
I think him speaking out will help with giving light to the issue in Hollywood and hopefully break the cycle of abuse.
I hope so too.
Why weren’t they protecting those babies?!?! I feel there needs to be someone protecting child actors. This whole thing makes my stomach sick. Hollywood needs to be brought down! I was a huge Boy meets world fan!
me too! loved that show
I dont understand why charges get to be dropped. If you did it, pay for it. That simple
Families need to want to put themselves out as victims and not all want that stigma
The legal & penal systems are also replete with predators, so there's an incentive for people working in those systems to be too lenient.
It's because his kind always has protections and connections. That's why they never truly get punished. The only one that actually got any was Epstein.
Drake is innocent tho…
Terrible what so many child and adult actors go through. On a different note Drake Bell came to my college in Alpine, Tx for a Halloween concert in 2015. Apparently he was hitting on all the college girls 😅
not surprising to me at all
@@dustindailey so many of the other college kids were so disappointed when they heard it was Drake Bell and not Drake lol. Didn’t know how to brake it to them that Drake wouldn’t be coming to a small country college town 😂
Drake would have been around or nearly 30 years old at that time.
2:41 the major red flag isn't that he worked with Dan Schneider a lot. It's that he worked with Dan Schneider AND Bryan Singer a lot. That's an insane trifecta right there
I also saw him in the Seinfeld episode "The Frogger". George distracts him and ruins his game 😂
Very true. I remember that 😁
Corey Feldman have the same issues in the 80’s
And now Feldman manipulates his "angels" three women whom he sleeps with and controls everything down to their diet.
@@annjepsen1621 yes, exactly. Feldman is even less of a credible accuser than Drake.
Corey Haim too
@@annjepsen1621 angles? Do you mean angels
@annjepsen1621 He was cruel to Haim too. Haims family has been begging for him and the media not to allow him to use Haims name or past anymore. Haim said he wasn't a friend to him.
All this sh#t we are learning after all these years.. truly is ruining childhood memories. 😪
Wait until Amanda and Jamie Lynn are able to come clean (under NDA’s?) 🤯
I feel like these insane issues either child actors goes back far beyond what we can imagine. For those old folks out here, we remember Cory haim and Cory Feldman talking about this stuff in the 80s
Judy Garland, SHirley Temple etc.
I was also a die-hard Nickelodeon kid. I always wanted to be on iCarly… I’m glad my mom was too poor to make that happen nowadays 😂
i wanted to be on the amanda show sooooo bad
To explain your question of why did they plea it down to two charges. It allows for the state to secure a conviction and avoid a trial. Avoiding a trial means the victim doesn't have to testify or be cross examined. Most child abuse cases end in plea deals for this reason.
I’m curious if he was paid an NDA to keep quiet? Because it appears that it has been exactly 20 years since the case was wrapped up. That’s a nice even number. Any idea?
I am still proud of Drake for finally speaking out against Dan, Brian, and Nickelodeon. However, Drake is still taking a big risk, and I don't just mean with his own legal troubles. What I mean is Drake, like so many Nick stars under Dan Schinder, signed the NDA agreement. So even though I am glad Drake did this. I just wonder what's going to happen to him now
and NDA can’t prevent someone from talking about illegal activities 😉
I think about Amanda Bynes who lived with Dan, she was amazing and I am sure she has the most trauma. Ariana Grande too, no wonder she is the way she is because of what Dan made her do. It’s disgusting…prayers for anyone who worked with Dan and Brian. Good for Drake for speaking out and exposing these perverts
Amanda was one of the first few child stars from Nick to start having problems and this was back in 2011/2012 but unlike her Kel Mitchell was going through his own demons but it wasn't so publicly talked about until just recently where his Ex wife came out of no where and began talking about all the things that happened when they were together.
Ariana on the other hand is a whole different case. There's no doubt in my mind she went through some horrible things when at Nick but how in the hell was she able to launch a successful music career and shine brighter than all of the former Disney stars?
She's the only one from Nick that was able to fully transition while Miranda and Victoria weren't so lucky.
I really hope Ariana had parents who where able to protect her.
@@teijaflink2226nope she was ruined and was gave her own "what I like about you" show
Thank you for opening my eyes and boggling my brain 😮🍍
I was a diehard Nickelodeon fan as well. Just got my youngest down for a nap. Thanks for bringing this to light, Dustin.
It makes me sad that so many child stars were abused. I am proud of all of them for speaking out. ❤
It's a vicious cycle.just found your channel. I was a die-hard nickelodeon fan as well
Keep up the great work! I am so glad these videos are being made. I was molested by my father and seeing all these stories come to light in recent years brings more awareness to all these dark and twisted predators out there.
LOVE THIS BACKGROUND DUSTIN OMG
thank you 😊
Nickelodeons Live-Action scene is infamous for extremely questionable hiring acts. Brian Peck aint the only predator they employed, Dan hired several. There were even a few that were on the Registry at the time of hiring.
Nothing can take back the horrible things Drake did but the fact that he's coming forward and at least doing his part to expose predators certainly brings back a bit of my respect for Him.
He was found innocent. The woman lied and her family confirmed the lies.
@@badkitty101 are you serious??? That's insane. So was any of the claims against him true ? I know there was not just one. There was something about grooming as well. Either way though I'm happy to hear that.
Thanks for having a citation in the sources that's something that makes me trust you more and I appreciate that the new age of UA-cam
Dustin Tagged you in something on Twitter. Would love a video on Ryan Garcia and Bohemian Grove Seems very interesting.
i’ve been following that. it’s so crazy!
Yeah that shit is wild.
Wow that’s crazy. What’s crazier is I remember blind items talking about this years back . So sad and even sadder that drake bell continues the cycle
ready for this
hey friend 💚
But Drake Bell wasn’t
Drake’s dad was amazing at taking care of him, and the fact that he warned the mother and she still let him go to Bryan’s place… I think there needs to be some accountability on Drake’s mom‘s part. What kind of mother lets their son stay at a strange man’s house? Even after the father warned her.
I still remember the "write to me, stick stickly" jingle 😂
“PO BOX 963. New York City, New York State, 10108!”
I love your new hard hitting content. Bring to light all the evil done in the dark!
Great job!!!! This is just disgusting!!!! God Bless all the children that were hurting and still are coping.🍍🍍🍍🍍🍍
thank you. it’s so sad what the years tell us isn’t it.
There are all kinds of age gap friendships when you’re into things like music and screen. When I was 16 my band mates were 15, 35, 42, and 76. I played with a very gifted 13 year old guitar player in my 20s. The thing is, nobody was tryna touch any pp. That part is crucial. People can be professional at any age, but they can also be unprofessional at any age. People should know better than to do sus shit when they’re being trusted not to be sus.
I wish people can just ask the most important questions rather than fucking criticize Drake. Did Josh KNOW?? They were on the same set for a long time, I don’t believe Josh didn’t know something. Is this why Drake was mad at Josh for the wedding?? Think about WHO else would Drake consider a friend WHILE being on set being molested?? Josh. He felt closest to him and TBH rewatching Drake and Josh, it’s hard to stomach knowing what happened to Drake. Idk why y’all focus on still saying “well he did”…..wow that’s just BS I’m sorry but it is and y’all can try to be politically correct but that’s not what this is about
I have a feeling josh probably didn’t believe it, which caused some problems in their friendship. Josh seemed a bit naive back in the day.
@@Quit3Cut3 Which I believe because many channels that dive into the Drake and Josh show, they say Josh was jealous and jealous people won’t believe ANYTHING if it doesn’t add up in their minds. I know people dislike Drake for his actions, even if they were proven false 💀💀, but it still doesn’t add up that the public can’t wrap their heads around a child being extremely sexually abused and had to hide it for years and the network gave them a show with their name on it as a compensation and HE TOOK IT because of how successful it became. Isn’t it weird that maybe Drake WANTED a teen heartthrob character because a man was abusing him and that was his way of saying “See I’m not gay” like that’s fucked
I think he did, but maybe not the extent. I don’t want to make assumptions but I think it was a situation where Josh was one of the kids who WASN’T abused and from what he claims, even treated well, so he was able to turn a blind eye more easily.
Josh was also a child at the time, you can’t hold that against him
@@calebreynolds9183 I’m not holding that against him it’s more so understanding Drake a bit more now. When he was just John Doe in that case we could’ve judged him as being nuts and crazy but now it’s understandable that maybe he felt Josh was the only real friend he had and to be told “We aren’t close” when he thought they were it’s kinda up in the air for me as if Josh knew or he didn’t know? Definitely won’t hold it against him because he was also a child
I like all your videos but I really have been enjoying the ones recently where you've been discussing crime issues, like the messages in the food and this video.
It's so sad that people do this to children.
Loving the new content, Dustin!
Like it when you mix it up. 🤘
thank you so much 🥰
I'm actually interested in this new docu-series that Investigation Discovery will be showing
Hey from New Zealand!!
hiii 👋🏻
Wasn't sure what to make of this Dustin dude at the beginning of this, but I'm impressed with what he has said and I learned a lot. Brett Cooper did a video on the subject and I wanted to know more, and now I do. Good video.

This is just blowing my mind in too many ways that I'm not sure I have capacity to keep up with. Thank you, for your always right to the darn point videos (not that I mind long ones) I just appreciate yours. Also listening to your voice is nice. You're a precious bean, 🫶🏻
awww thank you 💚💚💚
@@dustindailey oh!! 🍍
I have to tell you Dustin, i absolutely adore your accent! Your videos are great. Thank you😊
I disagree about having old or young friends. Along as theirs no criminal activity, unless your crimies but that's another thing.
There is no reason for people in their 30s and 40s to be friends with 15 and 16 year olds. None.
"You should be on death row" My guy I don't know you but I appreciate and wholly agree with that statement. - The reality is these people abusing children are literally setting that child up for a lifetime of problems and trauma. - It may not be taking a life but it has every potential to ruin one. We shouldn't have to share air with these kinds of people.
💯
🍍 I can’t wait to watch this! I’m ready to hear what Drake has to say. It’s sad because he ended up in a similar position but the accuser was found to be lying under oath. He did admit to talking to her but once he knew how old he was he blocked her. That’s what he admitted too. I know there’s more but it’s sad that he was being abused.
Bro im glad your speaking on this. This news is a slap in the face to all of us 90s kids its sad these young adults had to endure this crap. Im glad i never got to get on these shows and so sick.
I thought the pineapple 🍍 emoji was a symbol for other swingers to signify, "we're down to clown."
bahaha it is but it’s also a little nicky reference
Only when it's upsidedown. 😂
@@dustindaileyyes! Ok dude i had to find out if thats what you meant! Lol you gained a sub here!
Dude said if I'm going down the whole network's going down with me
With him already being a sex offender, this has me so conflicted…
same
Drake is not a sex offender and the judge said he didn't plead guilty to SA.
Yeah cause the justice system is known for it's protection of sa victims
It's ok to feel sad and sorry for Drake. It's awful what happened to him. I mean I think it's ok to feel that way. He was a child.
@@JNB520He still took advantage of a child himself. There are people who’ve been abused and don’t become abusers. I don’t feel there’s really an excuse but it’s difficult to point blame.
I am loving your investigation series!!! I’m 46 years old, my Twins are now 25. We used to watch Nick together. So sad to see this all come out. 😢
The classic "I was abused, so it's not my fault," defense that predators are so fond of.
Holy shit.. I didn’t realize that was him in home improvement. I watched that episode recently! Wow.
Drake also plead guilty to inappropriate contact w/ a minor.⚖
he sure did
He didn't plead guilty to SA!!!! Even the judge said that. Her aunt brought her to his hotel in Dec 2017 and they continued going to his concerts in 2018. @@dustindailey
@@JustineSalisbury still weird even if he didn’t plead
@@JustineSalisbury he did get charged with it, it doesn’t matter your opinion. If you look at his background he was charged with a sex offense against a child. You’re a weirdo and going to every comment defending him. You are probably a pedo defender.
He’s innocent tho also he pleaded guilty to that cus all the money he spent on the trial he took the plea deal cus it’s shorter and less ruff
Theres so much drama going on right now
May all victims heal
Great episode Dustin! I'm loving it ❤️😘❤️ 🍍🍍🍍🍍 very sad video too! And I'm just loving all this new content that you're putting out 😊
Victim to jailbait? Excuse me while I throw up
right 🤢
Aside from all the dark disgusting stuff involving kids ....anyone remember the hillbillie skit from The Amanda Show when Amanda would chase Drake around with that damn ham hock?! Lol it just popped in my head so I pulled up a clip of that skit right here on UA-cam and now Im straight up wheezing laughing! 😄😂
yes lmao that was my favorite 😂😂😂
Pink toilet is still my favorite one and it lives in my head rent-free
This whole situation is just heartbreaking. It just goes to show how the cycle of abuse can affect someone from being a victim to a perpetrator. This is a situation where empathy and accountability both play a role. I feel for Drake’s younger self. He was a child thrown into an adult’s world and his abuser saw that and completely took advantage of his trust. I wouldn’t be surprised if the trauma changed his perspective on trust, relationships, etc. With that being said, current adult Drake needs to take accountability of his actions. There’s no reason anyone over the age of 20/30 should be trying to flirt with a child. Especially someone who looked up to you, knowing that you have the upper hand based on your status. I can’t wait to see what this expose has to offer, but at the end of the day, I hope anyone affected by this generational trauma finds peace one day
Apparently he was charged only with endangerment of a minor because he flirted with her without knowing her actual age, no photos were shared and he never knowingly made in person contact with her and even blocked her account once he found out she was underaged.
Drake was found innocent tho
Yesssss why were the 16 other counts droppppped!!! Omggggg yes yes yes Dustin!!!! Say it alllllllll louder!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙌🏻
Well, as the saying goes, “hurt people, hurt people.”
Doesn’t make it ok. My father SA’d me for 8 yrs of my childhood, and I’ve nvr abused anyone.
@@loricawley54 I know that it doesn’t, I just say that to say that there is credence to the cycle of abuse. The abuser has usually been abused too; it all depends on the person you are. I can sympathize with you; I’ve been through those things as well, and I never thought of hurting anyone in the same way.
This whole circle of abuse is insane.
Girl it’s mind boggling.
"How can there be so many people on set and none of them know..." Denial. I have friends who were CSA victims and SA victims. I've talked with a couple of their parents... it's abject denial. Many people see the signs right in front of them, but they don't want to. Not just they choose not to see it, or they're too afraid or too selfish to say anything... It is such a horrid and terrifying thought to them that they do everything they can to reject it, to convince themselves that it isn't happening, until they can't deny it any longer. It all comes out, and many of these people are shocked, and horrified, and they feel horrible because they could have done something, but it's not an act... We see fiction represent someone having selective amnesia after a traumatic event, but this is a good example of that in real life on a smaller scale. The reality in front of them is too gut-wrenching for them to wrap their minds around, so they gaslight themselves. And it's not an excuse, it's sick and frustrating, and we as a society need to learn not to ignore the signs.
Drake,Jennette,Amanda and I bet there are many more victims 😢
Yeah I don't doubt this at all. Not just with all that has come out with Dan Schneider, but also with what Drake ended up doing. When I heard about what he did I was like, "another victim of the kids who grew up in nickelodeon."
This is disgusting why people get away with this.
I ❤ and appreciate when you and Nick switch up y’all’s content ❤ I like having a channel I can come to for verity!
💚💚💚💚💚
Oh i love the background u chose its perfect ❤❤
Brian Peck gets his head munched in Return of the Living Dead, I tend to rewind that part whenever I watch that movie.
My sister in law Used to work for Nickelodeon as a graphic design artist!!!! She worked for them for yeeeaarrrss at least like 7 or 8 years!!!! And couple WEEKS AGO SHE and 800 other people GOT LAID OF FROM the JOB! I wonder if this has anything to do with it
whoa 👀
@@dustindailey the two have to be connected right?
A minor pursuing an adult is a thing that happens, and it is 100% up to the adult to *know better* and remove themselves from that situation. The minor does not know better, that's why we don't allow them to drink, vote, marry, etc. Teenagers want to think themselves mature and wise, we were all there, so it is up to the adults to understand the limitations better than the kids. Anything else is just disgusting.
