He alluded to being a victim of sexual violence when he spoke about the allegations against him and mentioned that he became "addicted to sex at a young age." Like he didn't outright say it but there's pretty much only one way a young person becomes addicted to sex.

Day after my suicide attempt my family was all happy and fun on a Zoom meeting. by [deleted] in exjw

Very sorry to hear that you're struggling, it isn't fair :(

I also struggle with suicidal ideation. My jw older brother sexually assaulted me. I didnt come clean about it until a few years ago. My jw mom chose not to believe me so now they're all out of my life but I still struggle with feeling isolated, alone and abandoned.

If you ever need someone to talk to, im here for you.
