Reviewed it. Found the bit you refer to in your YouTube link after a Twitter search as well. To be clear, I am not certain of innocence or guilt. But I would like to know what is true.

Furthermore, the person in one of the images ANN used in their article detailing allegations (Anime News Network, and they blurred her face) spoke out, saying that there was in fact an event she arranged and attended to meet Vic, and said photo and hug was in fact consented. In addition, contrary to ANN’s claim, she was not the age they said she was at the time of that photo. From what I’ve gathered, ANN has not retracted. With her account, I do not think I need to spell out what that would imply.

The YouTuber in the OP’s link has also accessed a Google Doc detailing all of the information behind the KickVic events. He showed and commented that a number of these Tweets had a pattern.

1.) Accounts were relatively low profile until said Tweets came.

2.) Said Tweets showed an image or text saying they heard so and so. In other words, we don’t even know who, where or even when this stuff happened. All we get is a what, at best, amounts to hearsay. Personally I would like to know the who (If willing), what, when, where, how and why of what is being Tweeted. What I have seen so far is vague. I just want information.

My point? That at present, we have new information that details at least one allegation is false, and that a social media group was actively discussing creating fabrications to slander Vic.

My point is that this is not an open and shut situation. If at least one allegation is proven false, it begs the question of authenticity for the others. For reference, please refer to the OP’s link, along with Hero Hei. Though I will comment that it’s the visual evidence, not their commentary that is worth looking at, as alleging to a conspiracy is still far fetched.

To be clear again, I am uncertain of Vic’s innocence or guilt. I don’t have enough information to determine for myself. I feel like it is wrong of me to jump to conclusions without thorough review. It usually pays to double check. A second look can pay off.

To be clear, I am not trying to get him back to RT or defending a creep. I understand why RT did what they did. If it turns out that there’s truth to this, then so be it. But right now, something doesn’t feel right.

I’m not saying I’m right. I’m not saying those condemning Vic are wrong. I am most surely not calling survivors liars, and I care not for whatever political background people have. All I’m saying is that there appears to be more to this than it seems.

In keeping with that, if anyone has ANY form of evidence countering what I’ve presented, I ask that you present it so that we know the truth, however unpleasant it may be.
