Blunts & Blondes Breaks Silence Following Sexual Abuse Claims

Blunts & Blondes has come forward after three months of ghosting his social media platforms to claim his innocence following the sexual abuse allegations.

Mike Guard‘s last post was in October of 2022 with a statement denying claims made against him by a woman named Gabriel Reinhart. She took to the internet to detail an inappropriate experience with Michael Guard after Borgore’s Foam Wonderland event in 2019. Reinhart claimed Blunts & Blondes engaged with her sexually without her consent and was asked to keep the time they spent together a secret.

Reinhart’s tweets online caused a huge stir in the electronic community and people were not afraid to share their opinions. While some fans stood by the theory of innocence until proven guilty, others quickly canceled his career of this news. Even artists like Griz, who has a no-tolerance policy for sexual misconduct, removed their collaboration “Juicy” from all streaming platforms.

However, all of Gabriel Reinhart’s posts have since been deleted and Blunts & Blondes has broken his silence with a new statement.

“The past few months have been hard for me. People saying stuff about me when they don’t know me. People talking on a situation they don’t know. This girl came out with some bullshit allegation, and I lost my livelihood over it. She eventually pressed charges, and I have been investigated by the police for the last three months. I got a call from the police department this week, saying that the prosecution has decided not to prosecute. This girl has lied to you, lied to me, and lied to the police. I feel a little better, knowing that my innocence is now proven.”

Blunts & Blondes expressed his relief that the lack of prosecution is an indication of his innocence. In a follow-up, tweet Guard explains that this is just an update with more information including documents to be released.

“She deleted every single one of her social medias. I understand some people are still upset but I’m not going to stand by and allow someone to ruin my life over baseless claims. This will be going to court.”

According to his words, Guard may be suing Reinhart for defamation of character. These allegations originally caused Blunts & Blondes to cancel a few shows but eventually his entire headlining tour. Even though Guard plans to give more information about his side of the story, it’s difficult to say whether it will revive his tarnished image.
