Jey Mammon speaks publicly this Friday, March 31, in a recorded interview he gave to journalist Jorge Rial. For the first time, the driver gives his testimony and answers questions regarding the abuse complaint that Lucas Benvenuto made once morest him in 2020, and that was broadcast in the media days ago.
The 26-year-old man assured that they maintained a bond and that he suffered abuse when he was 14 years old and the driver was 32. In a video published last Wednesday, the comedian had denied that this is true and requested a trial for the truth.
“I need the truth trial and the elements are there for me to carry it out,” he said in a video. In this way, the musician asked that, despite the fact that the cause is prescribed, the judicial process be carried out to determine how the facts were.
15.17 “I’m having the worst time of my life”
“I chose you because I know you are going to ask me regarding everything,” Jey Mammon told Jorge Rial at the beginning of the report.
“I am having the worst moment of my life (…) I take clonazepam all the time because it is the way I have to cope with the situation. This is not the most important thing, but I wanted to clarify it because of the state that is seen,” he said in relation to the criticism he received for his gestures or his expressions in the video.
“I need to shout from the four winds not my truth, but the truth, because it is the truth.”
“Lucas was a beautiful love bond for me, it meant that I even composed a song for him. I dare say that it was one of the few love songs I did in my life. Today it represents something else.”
March 31st. Lucas Benvenuto denied Jey Mammon: “14 years. I do not lie. Stop normalizing abuse.”
JJuan Martín Rago, the given name of Jey Mammon, gave an interview to Jorge Rial for the program Argenzuela which is transmitted by C5N. In a fragment that became public before the full report, he affirms regarding Benvenuto: “I sincerely wish him that he can heal his soul and that if within what he feels, which I do not share, that I can be part of his hurt, I hug him.”
The accuser’s response came this Friday through social networks, denying part of Mammón’s story in both videos. “14. I do not lie. What part is not understood? stop normalizing abuse”, He maintained first, denying that when he met the driver he was 16 years old.
The second message was more forceful: “When I was 14 years old you said the same thing to me, but in bed. What irony right?”, he expressed himself.
And he added: “I thought that I would not live to see how my abuser sends me a hug on “TV” and wants ‘my soul to heal.’ How great the media”.
Lucas Benvenuto denied Jey Mammón: “I was 14 years old and you told me the same thing in bed”
March 29. Jey Mammon, in the video of his discharge: “I did not rape, I did not abuse, I did not drug anyone. I strongly deny it.”
On March 29, the presenter and singer Jay Mammon broke the silence and assured, through tears, that he had had an emotional relationship with Lucas Benvenuto for several years, but denied having raped or abused him.
“I am going through, perhaps, the worst moment of my life for the reason that I have never experienced the levels of anguish that I am experiencing. I want to go out and shout all over the place what I am going to tell you, but I can’t, I don’t have the strength “The driver started.
“I did not rape, I did not abuse, I did not drug anyone, ever. I have never done it in my life, nor would I do it, nor will I do it. I flatly deny it. We are talking regarding a 14-year-old boy and I need keep going deeper. I know Lucas. He says he was 14 years old, but at that party we met he was 16. There are witnesses, there are videos, what I’m saying can be proven,” he added.
“This week that I was here at my house, a 2011 tweet that talked regarding Lucas was broken up, and it’s him. I had a relationship with Lucas, I had a relationship with Lucas. December 22, 2011, Lucas was 19 years. I’m not sweeping that tweet or the bond I had with it under the rug. We walked hand in hand down the street, we kissed on the street. That bond lasted until we were 25 years old, coming and going. That bond was a bond full of love, containment, consent, nothing further from rape, abuse, drugging him, none of that. I deny it once more, I need to deny it flatly because it makes me shit to listen to it every time I hear it, “he continued.
“In addition to the issue of age, which I will tell you once more, it is not true either. I understand that Lucas obviously needs to heal his story, but it is not by accusing me of things that are not true. I do not want a settlement or pact between the parties. I don’t want any of that. The damage that is being done to me is so enormous that I don’t want it. I need a trial of the truth and the elements are there for me to carry it out. I need to get my life back , as simple as I tell you, thank you,” the driver concluded.
The scandal over the sexual abuse of Jey Mammon arose on the Karina Mazzoco program on the América channel, where Lucas Benvenuto, the complainant, assured that “a well-known Telefe driver” had abused him. The young man finally agreed on his social networks to a comment asking if his abuser was the driver of “La Peña de Morfi”.
Benvenuto revealed that he dated Jey Mammon when he was 14 years old and the musician was 32. In 2020, the young man denounced the driver in court, however the case was closed the following year and the defendant was dismissed.
However, this was not the only complaint once morest the driver, since another young man named Matías Méndez revealed that he was also a victim of Jey Mammon. “I denounced Jey Mammon in 2014 and nobody believed me,” the young man wrote on Twitter and was reposted by Benvenuto.
23 of March. Jey Mammon’s first statement: he said he was the victim of extortion, harassment and defamation
Two days following Benvenuto’s complaints became highly relevant, the Telefe driver decided to speak out and defend himself once morest these versions with a statement on his social networks.
“Given the dissemination of a complaint that the courts decided to prescribe, being a false episode in much of its content, I feel the need to inform that this action, which seeks unspeakable returns to the detriment of my person, is added a persistent campaign of harassment and defamation”, began the musician and comedian.
In addition, he maintained that he was a victim of extortion following this event: “I have suffered extortionate behavior on the part of the person who filed a complaint that the justice system dismissed and closed. Without prejudice to the legal actions to be taken, it is imperative to make it clear that the situation raised It is the product of the conduct of a person who, in this case, and in front of Justice, has acted untruthfully”.
“The media installation of the issue has put the prestige and honor of the person who speaks to them in a delicate and sensitive event for the whole of society at stake. I pray to God that the truth flows, the truth is exposed and known,” he continued.
