D’Elia admitted in Friday’s video “I know it’s been a really long time since you’ve heard from me,” but said he hoped his prior statements denying the accusations would suffice. “I wanted that statement to speak for itself,” he said, adding that although he wanted to get right back to work, he thought it .”best to take a long, hard look at myself.
“I do know how it looks with all the stuff that’s been said,” D’Elia said. “I know it looks bad, and it doesn’t show the full scope of what happened.” He claimed, “I stand by the fact that all my relationships have been consensual and legal. That’s the truth.” However, “sex controlled my life,” he said. “And I have a problem. And I do have a problem…I need to do work on that. “In a statement issued when the original accusations surfaced, D’Elia’s representatives sent a statement to Deadline.
“I know I have said and done things that might have offended people during my career, but I have never knowingly pursued any underage women at any point,” he said. “All of my relationships have been both legal and consensual and I have never met or exchanged any inappropriate photos with the people who have tweeted about me. That being said, I really am truly sorry. I was a dumb guy who ABSOLUTELY let myself get caught up in my lifestyle. That’s MY fault. I own it.
Love it!
All these guys who always say it was consensual. 🙄
“Looks”? Naw it IS.

I didn't care about this doosh before all these 'allegations' and now i care even less. We have more important things to focus our attention on.
I know people with first-hand knowledge of his toxic abuse... he comes out of the gate reiterating that what he did was “consensual” sorry, but no.
What a load of bullshit...another non-apology from a male comedian... JenKirkman
Another guy promising he’ll be good.
Oh, yeah?
