'When I was presented with a plea deal because of the messages, I felt that it was the best way to get this over quickly and for everybody involved to be able to move on and for me to get back to doing what I love,' Drake Bell said in an Instagram video
In a video message posted to the 35-year-old musician-actor’s Instagram, Bell clarified two claims that have swirled around him over the last year before addressing his guilty plea.
Bell said he hasn’t changed his last name despite an update to his social media handles and that he didn’t move to Mexico or become a resident or citizen of that country despite rumors he had. He then pivoted to his case, which he described as having “moved very quickly for you, but for me it’s been a three-year, thorough investigation into every false claim that has been made.”
