Moses Farrow is making his voice loudly heard in the ongoing Dylan Farrow-Woody Allen controversy.
On February 1, Dylan penned a letter in The New York Times that detailed multiple occasions of sexual abuse at the hands of the famous director, dating back to when she was seven years old.
Allen's attorney has since come out and shot down these allegations, alleging Mia Farrow brainwashed Dylan into believing the story as a way of getting back at Allen for sleeping with her stepdaughter, Soon-Yi Previn, who is now Allen's wife.

Dylan Farrow, meanwhile, issued her own statement in response to her stepbrother's take.
"This is such a betrayal to me and my whole family," she says."My memories are the truth and they are mine and I will live with that for the rest of my life.
"My mother never coached me. She never planted false memories in my brain. My memories are mine. I remember them. She was distraught when I told her.
"When I came forward with my story she was hoping against hope that I had made it up. In one of the most heartbreaking conversations I have ever had, she sat me d
