Now Massey and his legal team are sharing the entire claim is nothing but extortion. The 27-year-old revealed that earlier this year his team was sent a message from the accusers’ legal team. It stated that if the actor did not pay the $1.5 million, they would go public with the sexual misconduct allegations and sue him for the money.

Lee Hutton, who is representing Massey in the legal matter, explains his client told the accusers legal team to “pound sand” because he was not paying a dime.

“No child should ever be exposed to sexually explicit materials and I unequivocally and categorically deny any alleged misconduct,” Hutton told TMZ in response to the sexual misconduct allegations.

As for the actor, he has a message for not only his fans but those in the public who are reading about his case. Massey asks people to not pass judgment because there is more to the lawsuit than meets the eye. He requests the public to not jump to conclusions based on the allegations but save their judgment for when the whole story comes to light. The former Disney star promises the accusations will be proved wrong.

There have not been criminal charges filed against Kyle Massey, but there is a serious lawsuit complaint. The legal accusations are intentional infliction of emotional distress, harmful matter sent with the intention of seducing a minor, attempting to commit a lewd act with a minor, and annoying or molesting a minor.
