Drake Bell is addressing fans about his child endangerment conviction last month. He was sentenced to probation and community service at the time.
In June, the"Drake and Josh" actor was charged with disseminating harmful matter to juveniles and attempted child endangerment. In court, the victim, now 19, said Bell exchanged explicit photos online and engaged in sexual conduct with her on several occasions, including at a 2017 concert venue in Cleveland and at a hotel.
"I want to make clear there were no sexual images, nothing physical between me and this individual," Bell said, adding that he wasn't charged with doing"anything physical" or"disseminating any photographs." Bell also said in the video he decided to take the plea deal, because"I felt that this was the best way to get this over quickly, and for everyone involved to be able to move on and for me to get back to doing what I love, and that is making music for you."
