Although she didn’t name the individual specifically, she implied that he’s a police officer, with many commenters asking if it was Kingery. In one comment, she rules out two other possible names that commenters suggested.
In response to the backlash, Kingery uploaded a response video, in which he said: “This app, though, it’s changed. It’s brought more negativity and drama to my life than I need, and it’s hurt my family.”
“There’s some allegations going around about me and some of the other guys and I can tell you right now I have never sexually assaulted anybody in my entire life, and it pains me that I even have to say that.”

It’s currently not clear if or when he plans to make a return to TikTok at any point or further address the allegations against him.
