so turns out drake bell was innocent and only took a plea deal so there wouldn't be a chance he'd be away from his baby son (at the advice of his attorney).

this is why the "believe all victims" thing completely fell apart... fakers taking advantage of people's emotions and using blackmail tactics.

to make matters worse, turns out he himself was actually molested on the set of drake and josh by his dialogue coach, which was just revealed in a documentary called "quiet on set."
