Ezra Miller has spoken out following the lifting of a harassment order against them.
The 30-year-old The Flash actor was accused of an inappropriate relationship with a minor aged 12 years old, as well as for menacing the child’s family.
Ezra never faced criminal charges. Now, the temporary harassment order has been lifted.
After the decision, Ezra released a statement addressing the outcome. They said:
“I’m encouraged by today’s outcome and very grateful at this moment to everyone who has stood beside me and sought to ensure that this egregious misuse of the protective order system was halted.
Protective orders are meant to provide safety for individuals, families, and children who are in danger. They are not meant to be used as weapons by those seeking attention or fleeting tabloid fame or some sort of personal vengeance when there are people in true and dire need of these services.
I have been unjustly and directly targeted by an individual who the facts have shown has a history of such manipulative and destructive actions.
I implore those members of the media who have recklessly spread false claims and failed to accurately report the truth and context of this story, to hold themselves to a higher standard and take the time to find the facts, rather than chasing the clicks.”
They went on to say:
“On a personal note, I want everyone to know that I am continuing to do my best to preserve my own wellness and what I can to reverse the collateral damage this ordeal has brought upon me and those close to me.
Finally, to all you many beings in this world who have had the enormous courage to see me through it all and make it here with me – I will spend a long time trying to explain o you what it has meant to have your support.
You have my undying gratitude, admiration, and love.
- Ezra”
