Welp … it has been a week the story is getting more complicated regarding Kevin Clash’s alleged trysts with underage boys.
Kevin Clash has just resigned from the Sesame Workshop today after the first accuser Sheldon Stephens decided not to talk a cash settlement to drop his complaint. Now there is new person, Cecil Singleton, who claims that Clash trolled gay phone chatlines to meet with underage boys. Here is Clash’s statement:
“I am resigning from Sesame Workshop with a very heavy heart. I have loved every day of my 28 years working for this exceptional organization. Personal matters have diverted attention away from the important work Sesame Street is doing and I cannot allow it to go on any longer. I am deeply sorry to be leaving and am looking forward to resolving these personal matters privately.”
I stated last week that it would take about a week before he resigned. I was pretty accurate.
I just find this really sad. Your prediction was spot on, but I didn’t want to believe it.
