Crist has been accused of sexual abuse and sending inappropriate photos that were unsolicited among the allegations.

Elgin (Aaron Frobel) has been accused of sending unwanted photos.

Elgin has had so many other allegations over the years. If they were serious about his behaviour, they never would have hired him to begin with.

I know it’s different but I can’t help thinking that Tessa dodged a real bullet now
