If Sesame Street's Kevin Clash Is Innocent Of Having Sex With Underage Boys Why Has He Not Sued His Accusers

Look at his lacefront wig. If you're not careful, sticky fingers Beyonce will steal that right off your head. Actually, it looks like his hair.

Why did Sesame Street's Kevin Clash, the voice of Elmo on the kids show, wait until a second accuser came forward, to leave the show, some believe he was forced out of, due to claims he has been having sex with underage boys. If he is innocent, why did he agree to resign.  

Elmo and Kevin Clash

Why has he not sued his accusers, Sheldon Stephens and Cecil Singleton, if their stories are untrue. They've made some serious allegations against him. It leads one to believe there is truth to some or all of their allegations. Lastly, will authorities investigate and prosecute on behalf of the two men and any other potential victims.

Elmo regarding Kevin Clash: he's been groping my butt for years

Sesame Street is not having a good year. First Mitt Romney threatened to get Big Bird (not to mention the Judiciary Report's threat to have KFC fry up Big Bird for a family meal - hey, I preferred "Fraggle Rock" as a child - they had a killer theme song with a hot beat). 

Sheldon Stephens

But I digress. Next came claims of inappropriate sexual conduct from one of the show's cast members. First, 24-year-old Sheldon Stephens accused the voice of Sesame Street's puppet Elmo, 52-year-old Kevin Clash, of exploiting him for sex when he was a 15-year-old boy. Clash denied the ­­­­claims. Then Stephens retracted his claims after a $125,000 settlement from Clash, who stipulated he must recant his statements in order to receive the cash. Days later, Stephens demanded the settlement be undone and expressed his wish to recant the recant.

I am offended by this. His curls are bouncier than mine.

Days later, another man comes forward, Cecil Singleton, 24 (pictured above), alleging Clash engaged in inappropriate sexual relations with him as a minor of 15. Clash then resigns under pressure. In all seriousness, this conduct is wholly inappropriate and very harmful. People do not deserve to have their innocence taken from them in any manner. It is the Judiciary Report's view that Clash should be prosecuted. The government must send the message that anyone, famous or otherwise, can engage in sexual relations with minors. It's not fair to the kids.
