Woody Allen’s adopted son defends director in People magazine, says molestation never happened

NEW YORK, N.Y. – Woody Allen’s adopted son is defending the filmmaker against accusations that the director molested his then-7-year-old daughter in 1992.

Moses Farrow tells People magazine that Allen “of course” did not molest Moses’ younger sister Dylan Farrow.

Moses and Dylan were both adopted by Allen and actress Mia Farrow.

Farrow’s accusation that Allen had molested Dylan came during a bitter custody fight. The couple broke up after Farrow discovered that Allen was involved in a relationship with her oldest adopted daughter.

Allen was never charged with a crime.

Dylan Farrow recently wrote an open letter to The New York Times detailing the alleged abuse.

The 36-year-old Moses Farrow says Dylan should not go through life with the “false impression” that Allen molested her.

Dylan Farrow calls Moses’ comments “a betrayal.”
