His response letter

Nick believes that just like every other human being, he is bound to make mistakes but what hurts him most is that even after moving on and trying to pick up the pieces, the world will not allow him to.

“I’m not perfect. But I’m not the person these people tried to portray me as. Everyday I work towards being a better person; but I constantly get pulled back by people that are convinced I am a monster,” he painfully penned.

For him, the current situation is “taking a toll on him and his family” and even though he does not want to speak about it, his silence might be easily mistaken for guilt.

Therefore forcing him to respond to the issue. Calling out masses for publicly prosecuting him and ruling him as guilty, while they do not have the whole story.

“I hate the fact that this has gotten in the way of something that I’ve built for a decade, yet despite it all, the same people are still trying to portray me as the villain in their stories,” the letter continued.
