From new york city, this is nightline with dan abrahams. Good evening, and thanks for joining us. For over 20 years, woody allen has lived under a cloud of suspicion, and tonight, hes hoping to clear the air. Responding angrily and defiantly to allegations that he molested dylan farrow, the daughter of his expartner mia farrow, in 1992. Last week, the now 28yearold dylan recounted in the New York Times what she says are the details of the horrifying assault. Tonight, allen insists thats a vengeful, fabricated smear. Heres abcs juju chang. Of course i did not molest dylan. Tonight, that flatout denial from the world renowned director, answering charges for the first time in 20 years. I loved her and hope one day she will grasp how shes been cheated out of having a loving father. And he didnt stop there, going on to place blame querrey on mia farrow. One must ask, did dylan even write the letter . Or was it at least guided by her mother . The famously reclusive director speaking out to dylan farrows open letter in a blog in the New York Times website. This year cecil b. Demille Award Recipient is many things to many people reporter dylan broke her silence after woody allen was honored at this years golden globes, accepted in his absence by his longtime friend and leading lady, diane keaton. Hes made 74 movies in 48 years. In her letter, dylan describes in detail what she says she remembers happened to her. Whats your favorite woody allen movie . Before you answer, you should know when i was 7 years old, woody allen took me by the hand and led me into a dim, closetlike attic on the second floor of my house. He told me to lay on my stomach and play with my brothers electric train set. Then he sexually molested me. Its an allegation that allen has always denied. These totally false and outrageous allegations have sickened me. Reporter abramovitz was his lawyer. His reaction to dylans letter is overwhelming sadness. It revives the fight that he had with mia farrow 20 years ago. Reporter it all began when woody allen fell in love with another of his leading ladies, mia farrow, back in the 70s. Over the course of 12 years, they had three children together, two adoptive, one biological, in addition to mias other adopted children. Farrow was allens artistic muse in many films including the classic hannah and her sisters. That collaboration came crashing down during the filming of husbands and wives. I thought it was a good idea to have a baby. I dont think its such a good idea. Why . Reporter thats when mia discovered six naked polaroids of her then 19yearold adopted daughter soon yi on woody allens fireplace mantel. The scandal became a prolonged tabloid obsession. In the midst of the storm, mia went back on the set of husbands and wives to film their final scene. You were so beautiful in that black dress. Really. Dont do that. Reporter soon yi movedy allens house, and within a few years they were married. The breakup hit the entire family hard. Vanity fair writer spoke extensively with the farrow family last fall. The soon yi revelations were absolutely devastating to this family, according to the eight children i spoke to. Because here he was, the de facto dad in the family for a long, long time. And so the fact that suddenly, their sister was sort of betrayed the mother and ran off with woody and he didnt act like anything had gone wrong. Reporter perhaps no one was more affected than 7yearold dylan. A few months after the split on august 4, 1992, dylan says allen took her to that attic room in farrows country house. And did she tell you explicitly that she was molested in the attic . She told me that she remembers very clearly what happened to her in the attic and what she was wearing when she got there and what wasnt on when she left. So then she told me, my advice to the 7yearold dylan today would be, be brave, testify. So she told you explicitly that she had been molested. Not just that she was made to feel uncomfortable. She told me that she was made to feel very uncomfortable. Mia farrow videotaped dylans account of what happened and told the familys pediatrician, who by law had to alert the authorities. Connecticut police launched a criminal investigation, which included an independent review by the yale new haven sex abuse clinic. After a sixmonth exhaustive investigation, that group concluded not only that the molestation did not occur, period, but they concluded that it was caused by either mia farrow coaching dylan inappropriately, or dylans inability to distinguish between fantasy and reality. Reporter criminal charges were never filed against woody allen, but the states attorney who was in charge of the investigation at the time issued a statement saying he felt there was probable cause to charge the legendary director but he chose not to in order to spare dylan. I spoke to the prosecutor today and his sense was that, well, he kept saying i stand by the remarks that i made that many years ago. But that with the probable cause, he it wasnt that he felt that no criminality occurred but that he didnt think dylan could make it through a trial. And that for her sake, he wouldnt press forward with a trial. I know thats what he said, and i think we brought him to task at the time for making an inappropriate Statement Like that. He either brings a case or he doesnt bring a case. Reporter but allen lost the custody battle and an appeal. He was only allowed supervised visits with the three kids he had with farrow, and in a withering 32page ruling the custody judge called allen a willfully inappropriate parent. He even cast doubt on some of the conclusions of the Yale New Haven Center report, saying that the judge wasnt sure that the evidence conclusively proved no sexual abuse occurred. All of thf left a residue of doubt over what exactly happened that day. A doubt that was brought to the surface again this awards season. Heres to woody. Thank you. Many observers are saying that dylan has nothing to gain by all this, why would she lie . I dont think shes lying. I think that dylan honestly believes this happened. I think that it is a function of the fact that she was used as a pawn in the fight between mia and woody. One doesnt become a pedophile overnight. You either are a pedophile or youre not a pedophile. Reporter since dylans open letter in the New York Times, the battle between mia farrow and woody allen is being refought on tv. You dont have any comment on dylans letter . Reporter this photo from the day dylans letter went viral, allen and his two adopted daughters with soon yi, swarmed by the press. Is woody a good father now . I think hes a marvelous father. I got to see a little bit of the dynamic with his kids. Dr. Robert whitey who made a fourhour series on the famously reclusive filmmaker and recently spoke with a surprising allen defender, his oldest adopted son with mia. They had been estranged for years. Last week in People Magazine, moses came to his fathers defense. Of course woody did not molest my sister. She never hid from him until our mother created the atmosphere of fear and hate towards him. I spoke with him personally when i was writing my piece for the daily beast. He uses brainwashed without hesitation. Fairly recently he reached out to woody, apologized and said, lets get together. Woody was so happy to have one of his sons back. And woody and soon yi are enjoying a wonderful relationship with moses right now. Reporter in that same People Magazine article, dylan herself responded saying, my memories are the truth and they are mine and i will live with that for the rest of my life. My brother is dead to me. As for the allegations that mia manipulated her, dylan strongly objects. My mother never coached me. She was distraught when i told her. She was hoping against hope that id made it up. And late tonight, an impassioned response from dylan farrow to abc news. For 20 years i have never wavered in describing what he did to me. Woody allen has an arsenal of lawyers and publicists. But the one thing he does not have on his side is the truth. With the oscars just weeks away, some hollywood insiders suggest this may cast a shadow over allens most recent movie. Do you think this might have an impact on how his career is perceived . I certainly hope not. I would assume that people who participate in the voting for the oscars do so on the basis of the art itself and not the personal conduct of anybody. The achievement im going for is to try and make a great film. For nightline, im juju chang. Seems this very emotional war of words is not going to end tonight. Next, for young boys growing up in a tough neighborhood, you might not think the best way to stay on the straight and narrow would be to join a rowdy group of bikers.

Joining a biker group called the 12 oclock boys may not sound like a solution. After all, they can be rowdy and at times end up on the wrong side of the law. But as abcs byron pitts found when he headed back to his own hometown, this controversial crew may also be the best option for many looking for an extended family. Reporter inner city baltimore, my hometown, where in too many neighborhoods drugs and violence are just the facts of life. Meet the street bikers of baltimore. Weekend warriors on two and four wheelers. On sundays they roam the city as if its their private playground racing, weaving, acrobats with attitude. They call themselves the 12 oclock boys. The police and many others view them as a Public Safety hazard. I believe we lose at least 10 to 15 lives every summer in reference to dirt bikes. Reporter but for the bikers, riding is often the safest option these streets provide. You learn the right way to do all the wrong [ bleep ] in baltimore city. Hustling, shooting, selling drugs. Killing some [ bleep ]. One of the first things you see that you actually want to do is ride a dirt bike. Thats one of the first things you see thats positive. Reporter and thats how 12yearold taekwon ford sees it. His nickname is pug. Street riding is his version of the the boy scouts. Being part of the pack is his dream. Why do you want to be a 12 oclock boy so badly . Because, like, its fun. What do you feel . What do you think when youre riding . I feel powerful. I feel like a superhero. I feel like im on top of the world. They get on that bike, they feel powerful. Whatevers going on in their life is all gone. You can escape and ride. Reporter the group is named after their trademark maneuver. Speeding down the street with their front wheel pointing straight up, 12 00. Theyre the subject of a controversial new documentary that bears their name, the 12 oclock boys. We need to catch up because theyre going to go down the road again. Right, i know. Reporter the film follows pug for three years. From precocious 12yearold who loves animals to an edgy, often angry teenager hardened by circumstance. Pugs mother coco brown struggles to raise him on her own. You can get locked up for certain things. You need to get yourself together and stop worrying about bikes. Bikes is not everything. Reporter but in many ways it is the bikers who are raising him. It takes a village to raise a child, it really does. She can raise pug by herself but she shouldnt have to. One person trying to raise [ bleep ] like that is a lot. Are these older guys mentors to you . Yeah, they taught me stay in school, do all my work, pass all my classes. They just taught me focus on school, dont worry about bikes all the time. I grew up in baltimore. When i think about the men who mentored me, theyre men in my church. But for someone like pug who needs to rebel, hes working against something. Hes seen enough by a certain age that hes got a kind of hard edge. And its going to be an unconventional way of growing. It has to be through rebellion. Reporter director nathan started following the group for a project as a College Student in baltimore. The 12 oclock boys have been called a fearless pack, a gang, menace, troublemakers. What would you call them . The rebels. I think that theyre also mentors. Theyre also children. Its actually kind of a way of edification for a lot of kids in baltimore. Its kind of like the boy scouts or something. In the context of what gangs can really be in baltimore and what violence can really be and what crime can be. Reporter for a city its size, baltimore is one of the most Violent Crime and drug ridden in america. There were 235 murders last year. 29 so far this year. You say that baltimore isnt safe. What do you mean . You got to be careful out there. People get shot, sometimes for no reason. Just being at the wrong place at the wrong time. Have you seen the kind of violence youre describing . In 2007, i think, we was all walking and this boy just came out of the alley with a hoodie on and this other boy, he shot him and he got to the alley and dropped. I guess he was dead because he wasnt moving. Whats that do to a young person, to do you, to see those things . I started to get used to people just Walking Around with guns and i never looked at them as a role model. I always looked up to the bikes. Reporter but there are real dangers here. Bikers have been severely injured. Some have been killed. Baltimore police can do only so much. Officers usually dont chase the bikers for fear of accidents. You dont want to risk the lives of innocent people by chasing them unless they committed a violent act. But at the same time, the act of them riding around doing wheelies at high speed is a violent act in itself. Reporter when the violence on the streets of baltimore can take your life at any minute, by comparison, riding a bike doesnt seem so dangerous. Youve got your whole life to see the bikes. No. Why not . Tomorrow is a day not promised. Could die any minute. As an old guy, i think sometimes children shouldnt think that way. Shouldnt have those concerns. I used to think nobody can never die, as i was growing up. I see people getting shot, murdered, stabbed. You never know when your time is up. Reporter for pug and children like him, the road out of baltimore is lined with more obstacles than even the most skilled 12 oclock boy could ever maneuver easily.

And the Opening Ceremony did not disappoint, at least as far as entertainment value goes. It started simply with a little girl flying with a kite. And quickly moved to the eccentric, from a dramatic horse drawn entrance to a trippy carnival. But it wasnt all smooth sailing. Five floating snowflakes were supposed to blossom into the five Olympic Rings but suffered a technical failure and only four out of the five appeared. Plus after all the controversy about how gays will be treated in sochi, the all the things she said duo pop group performed. Theyre known for their fake lesbian act.
