It’s been brought to my attention that I’ll be featured in the documentary Q: Into the Storm. I was referred by people I trusted in the movement to the director, Cullen Hoback, in late 2018 and ensured he’d be fair. I want to make it clear that at the time & throughout filming my part, I was told Cullen was working to create this film independently. I was informed a few days ago this project was picked up by HBO & will be a six-part series that will start airing Sunday night. I was not, nor will be, paid for my participation. Also, it should be noted that there’s another journalist in the documentary who has slandered me & has since issued a retraction for spreading malicious lies about me in one of his articles. I hope this documentary sheds a fair light on the reality of child sex trafficking — a very important issue that I’ve dedicated my life to & the reason why I agreed to participate in this project.
