“But the thing that was actually really heartbreaking to me, and kind of crazy to me, is after it started going viral, seeing so many people not believing me,” Mongeau continued. “Being like, ‘It’s Tana, so who cares.’

WRONG! Tana we do care & what happened to you matters!

"This was organized by someone else."

"I am so glad our managers orchestrated this."

"I am your biggest fan. This is such an honor."

Kody Ko

"My people got in touch with her people."

"Teach me some teen slang... I am way too old to be on Youtube."

"She knows a whole bunch of slang and cool words, because, you know, she is a teen whatever"

“this isn’t just some crazy tea, it was a crime.” She states that she “grew up loving” Ko, but, looking back at the alleged encounter as an adult now, “can say [she was] taken advantage of,” especially considering she was a fan of his. Although she maintains that she felt that she was “having fun at the time,” she agrees that Ko should have known better.

Cody Ko and the Allegations of Possible

Statutory Rape with other 17-Year-Old Girls.

From Reddit:

The girl on Cody Ko's shoulders is the girl he was dating from Vine where he was seen kissing her. If she turned 19 in the Instagram post dated May 24, 2016, she would have been 17 on April 13, 2015.

The Vine was posted on July 27, 2015. That means Cody had been with her and dating publicly for at least 4 months.

He was 24 about to turn 25.

From Reddit:

I have tried posting this in codys subreddit, but it was taken down so i’ve been commenting and some people suggested posting it here, for context this girl is Evie and she hung out with Cody when she was 17/18 and Cody was 24/25. the details of their relationship are hard to sort out but this video definitely indicates something more than just friendly. Evie and her friend Rylee are also seen in old vines going around, being friendly with cody and his friend colby leachman around this same time (who if you have not heard of I would look in to).
