Tim Ballard Issues Statement Debunking Baseless Sexual Allegations

(SALT LAKE CITY, UT—September 19, 2023)—The Spear Fund—an organization funding and collaborating with a coalition of experts, organizations, and concerned citizens from around the globe to end human-trafficking in our time—is releasing a statement on behalf of Senior Advisor Tim Ballard.

“As with all of the assaults on my character and integrity over many years, the latest tabloid-driven sexual allegations are false. They are baseless inventions designed to destroy me and the movement we have built to end the trafficking and exploitation of vulnerable children.

“During my time at O.U.R., I designed strict guidelines for myself and our operators in the field. Sexual contact was prohibited, and I led by example. Given our meticulous attention to this issue, any suggestion of inappropriate sexual contact is categorically false.”
