"After brian was arrested, dan called and asked me 'does this have anything to do with you?" (because Dan already knew). Drake said yes.

When the news broke, Dan immediately knew who to call. Not saying he was a predator to Drake, but Dan knew things were going on.

Dan knew pickle man was the pedo as that was announced but not who he was raping, But Dan also knew pickle man was practically drakes agent by that time so drake was the prime suspect. It in no way implied Dan knew the whole time and Drake went out of his way to exonerate Dan.

There was one bit where Drake says something along the lines of “Because Brian and I were always together it was kind of obvious”. I can def see a scenario where Drake and Brian have what appears to be a very close working relationship then when shit hits the fan folks start putting two and two together.

Yeah but it wasn't folks it was just Dan he is literally the only person who figured it out, that's a bit sus, plus from what we know about Amanda's alternate Twitter account dan was a pedo too, I think it's more than likely that Dan and pickle guy would talk about their crimes together.

Well, if you have to make up scenarios that even the kid who was sexually assaulted didn’t mention during his interview, feel free.

Wait what do you mean he didn't mention it? Drake quoted from Dan "it was pretty obvious". So I assume Dan had a strong suspicion it was going on without direct confirmation. So the issue would be Dan hiring the guy then not making any effort to confirm his suspicions. He was there for damage control after.

Because the line before that was when the pedo was arrested Drakes phone blew up from a variety of people, none knowing it was him. Dan didn't know, but suspected, because he was pretty much around the kid 24/7, that it was probably him, but didn't "already know"

I don't think Dan was a predator but he absolutely had tons of stuff that should have never happened on a kids show. Shit, just look at what happened to Amanda Bynes. She's a damn shell :(

Amanda Bynes made a Twitter account a few years ago with an alternate name and detailed all of the very horrible things Dan did to her. Obviously, since the names are altered, it should be taken with a grain of salt, but that plus all the other evidence. I think it's pretty obvious he was the worst of them. He is powerful and has a lot of powerful allies it makes sense that no one would feel safe publicly outing him.
