I don't think anybody, like I said, with a functioning brain believes that me at the age of 35 decided to start making money on TikTok and ruin my entire life without financial motivation.  Girls who say they're not victims of anything, screen grabs from an alleged sex trafficking

victim of social media influencer Andrew Tate, come to light. Tate's firing back claiming the woman has denied any mistreatment by Tate and his brother. I'm Anjanette Levy, welcome to Law and Crime's Sidebar podcast. Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan and two women are

accused of rape, human trafficking, and participating in a criminal gang in Romania. The brothers have vehemently denied the charges, but Rollingstone.com claims to have obtained authentic 2021 messages from Tate's all-male network, The War Room, that may state otherwise.

Prosecutors claim the Tates lured the women into sex work by engaging in relationships with them and then coercing those women into sex work. It's called the Loverboy method. The site says one message was from the so-called PhD program, which stands for "Pimpin' Hoes"

degree. It was quoted as saying, "My job was to meet a girl, get her to fall in love with me to where she'd do anything I'd say and then get her on webcam so we could become rich together." Rolling Stone says it verified the messages were

authentic and one from June 2020-21, a user identified as Tate talked about the qualities he looks for in a woman: "Give me an average moron with no skills who's blindly loyal. I judge basically all females by loyalty. If they're loyal and

They won't leave in the end, they will do everything you want. Rolling Stone also points to Instagram messages, one in which Tate posted on Instagram in June 2021, "Ibiza asset has agreed to do PhD write-up forthcoming." Rolling Stone also suggests that Tate

preyed on women who were vulnerable and wanted to meet with him. One woman whom he's had, had lost her support network. Tate is quoted as writing, "The real goal is for her to agree to never go anywhere without me, not even her hometown. I need

her working." Two of the women who the outlet claims are alleged victims in Romania, cited by prosecutors, had moved in together according to a message from Tate. Meanwhile, a spokesperson for Tate issued a lengthy statement to Law and Crime. Part of it reads, "The person

referred to in these purported screenshots has publicly and categorically refuted any mistreatment from the brothers. However, despite her pleas, the prosecution remains reluctant to remove her name from the alleged victim list. While all statements from the alleged victims incriminating the

brothers have been unquestioningly accepted by the public, the evidence supporting the brothers' innocence has not been given the same fair treatment. It has also come to our attention that a significant portion of retweets and shares of these screenshots across social media platforms originate from

recently created and unverified accounts. These realities raise concerns about the potential for a deliberate and targeted effort to sway public opinion and undermine the credibility of the evidence presented. The Tate brothers have stated in many interviews that their comments are satire and that they've been exploited and misconstrued.

by their critics beyond the most famous, most Googled man on the planet, right, on the most Googled man on the planet. And image and videos of me are being presented out of context, and every single time I do a podcast I say that's shown out of

context. This is genuinely good against evil, and it upsets me in my heart that we live in a world now where the absolute evil is out here not only trying to hurt us, but hurt everybody around us and every everybody we try and help, not only you at home but also all

the people we rely on. We have children, they're locking us in a jail cell, leaving our kids without fathers for what? What have we done to anybody? Tick tock, tick tock. Sit here telling you to be a better version of yourself and to train hard, to be dedicated. The Tates

remain on house arrest in Romania. That's it for this edition of Law and Crimes Sidebar podcast. You can listen to and download Sidebar on Apple, Spotify, Google, and wherever else you get your podcasts, and of course, you can always watch it on Law and Crimes YouTube channel. I'm
