# DxE Says CityWatch Got it Wrong
November 05 2020
Written by Bonnie Klapper.
[](https://www.addtoany.com/share)
**VOICES**-In response to an October 29, 2020 [CityWatch opinion piece](https://ded2209.inmotionhosting.com/~citywa9/index.php/dc-dispatch-hidden-2/20660-the-dark-underbelly-of-vegan-activist-organization-dxe) about DxE, counsel of DxE informed us of the following: No grooming allegations have ever been made against DxE or anyone in its leadership, neither in the Berkeleyside article referenced in CityWatchLA’s piece nor anywhere else, apart from a single, not credible allegation by what is termed as a ‘high-profile accuser.’
The ‘high-profile accuser' example CityWatchLA referenced in the same article was a complaint about a **single** email from one of DxE’s founders with no sexual content, sent four years before DxE was founded, at a time when both parties were above the age of consent in the state in which they lived.
*(Bonnie Klapper is counsel for DxE.)*
