Former “The Voice” contestant Melanie Martinez has been accused of sexually assaulting her friend.
Timothy Heller, an aspiring singer, wrote her allegations on Twitter against Martinez, who she described as her former “best friend” who took her in.
“I felt like I owed her my life,” she wrote.
Heller accused Martinez, who rose to stardom after she was a contestant on season three of “The Voice,” of being manipulative and selfish, always making things about her even when Heller was at “rock bottom.”
“Her power and control over me grew and grew into me having a very hard time saying no to her,” she said. “I would do almost anything for her.”
Heller said she’s previously been through sexual abuse and is sensitive when it comes to sexual topics, but said Martinez was “increasingly interested in her sexual preferences” and persistent in asking her to have sex with her.
“I said no. For two nights straight. It doesn’t matter that I didn’t resist during the action,” Heller wrote on Twitter. “I had been broken down. She knew I didn’t want to, I made that clear. I didn’t scream at her, I didn’t force her off of me, 1, because I loved her. 2, because I just wanted it to be over.”
“Just so there is no confusion, I was molested by my best friend,” she wrote.
Martinez responded on Twitter saying that she’s “‘horrified’ by the allegations,” and that Heller was her friend who “never said no to what we chose together.”
“Girls can rape girls. Best friends can rape best friends. Friendship doesn’t equal consent,” Heller wrote.
Heller said their friendship fell apart soon after the incident and she has “kept this secret for years” in fear of the response she would get.
“To the public, she could do no wrong,” Heller wrote, describing Martinez’s loyal fan base.
But in light of the recent #metoo movement that has sparked a flood of sexual harassment claims against some of society’s most powerful people, Heller hoped she would be believed, she wrote.
Her tweet received more than 7,000 responses and 72,000 retweets. Many people accused Heller of lying, saying things like “innocent until proven guilty” and “I don’t see proof.”
But many other people came to her support, calling Heller “brave” and “inspiring.”
Why no photographic evidence?
A girl named Timothy? I’m sure she’s not messed up at all...
/s
A girl named Timothy?
Is that as questionable as a boy named Tiffany?
Did I read that right?
I sure as heck hope that Timothy is a boy's name.
To save on eye bleach.
I need a score card.
I’ve seen girls named Timothy lately.
There was a song in the sixties about cannibalism called “Timothy”.
Well, I’ve heard of a “Boy Named Sue”...
If I woke up next to a hot woman who took advantage of me, I would skulk away, brush my teeth, make myself presentable, come back to the scene of the crime, and with righteous indignation - ask for a second go.
Sorry women, but all of the “nice men” who were “chaste and pure” died out long ago with the unicorns.
That being said, if the woman "rapist" was an ugly-ass train wreck, all that I can say is that bitching about getting a raw deal is an age-old tradition regardless of sex.
If this person believes that they were the victim of criminal sexual penetration, then she needs to go to the police, not the media.
Gonna have to find out if Mom & Dad were Johnny Cash fans back in the day.
All of a sudden I feel sexually confused.
Well, it could also be the chili I had for dinner.
Same general area.
