"The smears against me range from distortions of my personal life to wild and I mean, wild conspiracy theories. I won't be intimidated by a lying media."

"Absolutely not. It`s witness testing."

"The allegations are blatantly false and have not been validated by a single human being willing to put their name behind them."

"Providing for flights and hotel rooms for people that you're dating who are of legal age is not a crime."
