“Earlier today myself and three other cast mates were falsely accused of sexual offense by anonymous accounts on twitter.

I take these accusations very seriously, and will be working with the right teams to get to the root of it,” Sprouse, 27, tweeted on Sunday. "False accusations do tremendous damage to victims of actual assault. Furthermore, I would never seek to silence anybody." Minutes later, Reinhart quoted Sprouse’s tweet and added: “I have always taken sexual assault allegations seriously. But it was proven that this account was created specifically to create false stories about me and my cast. I can’t think of something more twisted than lying about sexual assault. It invalidates the men and women who are brave enough to come forward with the truth. This kind of lie can ruin lives and careers- and I can call it a lie because the person who made the allegations already admitted that the stories were fabricated.”
