Ex-Disney Channel star charged with
sending p-rno to 13-year-old girl
Disney’s Kyle
Massey sent adult content to a 13-year-old.
Former Disney Channel star Kyle Massey has
been charged with communication with a minor for immoral purposes, a felony.
The 29-year-old actor is accused of sending inappropriate images
to a 13-year-old girl.
Former Disney
star Kyle Massey has been charged with a felony in Washington state for
allegedly sending explicit text messages, images, and videos to a 13-year-old
girl.
Massey, best known for his role as Cory Baxter in “That’s So
Raven” and “Cory in the House”, is facing a charge of communicating with a
minor for immoral purposes
The charge stems from accusations
detailed in a 2019 lawsuit against Massey, which was later dismissed
According to
court documents, the plaintiff in the case met Massey at Universal Studios when
she was 4 years old.
She said that she stayed in touch with Massey because she wanted
to pursue a career in entertainment.
In November
2018, the girl reached out to Massey about auditioning for a role in a reboot
of “Cory in the House”, and during their subsequent conversations, she informed
Massey that she was in eighth grade.
The court documents allege that between December 2018 and
January 2019, Massey sent the girl explicit content, knowing she was underage.
In a statement released after the
lawsuit was filed in 2019, Massey denied the allegations and accused the girl’s
attorneys of attempting to extort him for $1.5 million.
“No child
should ever be exposed to explicit materials and I unequivocally and
categorically deny any alleged misconduct,” Massey said in the statement.
“In early 2019, Plaintiff’s attorneys demanded $1.5M threatening
to go public to destroy my career if I did not comply. My family and I rejected
this extortion attempt, because I have faith that the legal process will reveal
the truth.”
Massey, now 29,
rose to fame as a child actor on Disney Channel. He first appeared on the
network’s sketch comedy series “The Amanda Show” before landing the role of
Cory Baxter on “That’s So Raven”.
He later starred in the spin-off series “Cory in the House”.
Massey continued to act after his Disney days, appearing in several other TV
shows and movies.
He has also released several
albums and singles as a rapper
The recent
charges against Massey have shocked and saddened many of his fans. Many have
expressed their disappointment and disgust on social media, calling for a
boycott of Massey’s music and shows.
The incident has also raised questions about the way that
celebrities and public figures interact with their fans, and the need for
greater awareness and protection for young people.
Massey failed to show up to his arraignment on the felony charge. It is not clear if he has retained an attorney to represent him in the criminal case
