The assault was vehemently denied by Banks \u2013 and now he\u2019s defending himself again, in response to further claims brought up by the documentary\u2019s sixth episode. Banks responded to a Tweet from a user defending the claims, which cited the bruise on Zelly\u2019s neck as undeniable evidence. \u201cDude, it didn\u2019t happen,\u201d Banks responded. \u201cThere was physical evidence supporting my side in way of a full security tape that has me doing absolutely nothing Meg described.

Dawson likewise confirmed that he had witnessed the messages in question. Costell then revealed that Zelly had filed a police report over the incident, and that she and Jake Paul both believed in the validity of her testimony.
