The man that accused Kevin Clash, the voice behind Sesame Street's Elmo, of sexually abusing him as a minor, is going back on his statements - again.

Last week, 23-year-old Sheldon Stevens claimed that Clash, 52, had an inappropriate relationship with him involving sex when he was 16 year sold. The next day, Stevens recanted his statement, claiming that he and Clash shared "an adult consensual relationship." He also received $125,000 for issuing this statement and settling the case.

However, now the young male model is claiming that he was pressured into a recantation, and that he was indeed sexually abused by Clash. In addition, he is willing give back the settlement money just to clear his name.

Do you believe Stevens' first charge that he was sexually abused, or the second claim he made saying that it was consensual?
