Absolutely not. I wouldn’t leave my daughter with anybody that’s accused of pedophilia.

Following that interview, CBS News reports that Johnson has issued a statement announcing that he is removing himself from Kelly’s team.
I step down as crisis manager for personal reasons. Mr. Kelly is in good hands with Mr. [Steve] Greenberg [Kelly’s criminal defense attorney]. They’ve indicted Mr. Kelly.
During his interview with King, Johnson described Kelly as “normal” and stated there was nothing in his actions that made Johnson suspicious.
Johnson said in his interview:
He’s in jail right now. He will have his day in court, and they’ll have to bring the evidence. And that’s what has to be done. If the evidence stick, Mr. Kelly will spend the rest of his life in the penitentiary.
