"Nacua's attorney stated, 'He was in [rehab] a substantial period of time before any of these allegations broke ... and he's scheduled to be there for a while longer.'"
"'I trust this kid's heart,' McVay said. 'Love him, put your arm around him, want to continue to help him grow and really get all the appropriate facts before I kind of rush to judgment on that particular situation.'"
"'At the time he had no idea' of the nature of the gesture, which has been associated with antisemitic themes, Nacua stated in December."
