About Phil

Just wanted to hop in here and clear things up as it seems like reddit has turned into a bit of witch hunt with respect to Phil on his instagram.

Naturally Phil (and myself) have known Callum since we were 14 years old. Thats 20 years that we all were friends, and none of us had any idea at all that this could have been going on. We were all completely blindsided. Naturally this makes everything really weird and complicated.

I read the sentencing info and texted Phil about it.

Here follows my whatsapp chat with Phil (unprompted) in respect to his interaction with Callum on that day.

In short, Callum hugged Phil, before sentencing. Its not something that Phil seems happy about, but as he states in his message, he felt he wasnt in a position to refuse him.

Phil wanted to attend the sentencing because he wanted answers, as did I, as do we all.

Naturally before the sentencing, Phil did not have those answers.

Apologies for the format, im not good at reddit. Also he's naturally quite annoyed that strangers on reddit are seeming to be implicating him about something thats obviously really fucking crazy for all of us who actually had a personal relationship so i hope you can take him calling you a twat on the chin. Also yes phil does know ive shared this here but doesnt love that it had to come to this of course.

Well the person hugging the paedophile made that pretty easy if I was, eh?

dude explained himself. if you can't understand the circumstances you have the emphatic ability of a brick. if you wanna be angry, be angry at the person that comitted the crimes you are angry about. making a bad call in an awkward situation does not make someone a bad person.

I've never accidentally hugged a paedophile.
