"They told me what had happened was fu**ed up and wrong, and that I was right to feel weird about it. I couldn't have done this without them," she continued alongside a photo of her next to boygenius bandmates Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker.

"Ryan had a network too. Friends, bands, people he worked with. None of them held him accountable. They told him, by what they said or by what they didn't, that what he was doing was okay. They validated him. He couldn't have done this without them," she wrote.

One of the "Come Pick Me Up" singer's alleged victims said she was just a teen when the two engaged in "sexual conversations" online She added that while she was initially captivated by his glitz and glam, he quickly grew manipulative and obsessive. Adams, 44, disputed her claim.

Once, she claimed he called her up to his hotel room only to greet her completely nude. He denied her allegations, saying that what they had was a "brief, consensual fling."
