September 3, 2019: Sarah Publicly Admits Cocaine Use and Tells Onision to “Use It Against Me”
On September 3, 2019, Sarah publicly wrote:
- “I did cocaine. Use it against me.”
The statement was published from Sarah’s own social-media account during her public confrontation with Onision.
What Sarah’s Post Establishes
Sarah’s post establishes that:
- She publicly admitted using cocaine
- The admission originated with Sarah herself
- She voluntarily placed the conduct into the public record
- She directly invited Onision to use the admission against her
- Onision did not invent her association with unlawful drug activity
The Defamation Conflict
Sarah’s later complaint alleges that Onision defamed her by publicly describing her as a “known criminal” and stating that she was a “felon.”
The cocaine post is directly relevant to that claim.
Years before the disputed statements, Sarah publicly admitted using an illegal controlled substance and specifically told Onision:
- “Use it against me.”
Sarah therefore cannot accurately claim that every association between her and criminal conduct was fabricated by Onision. She personally introduced her cocaine use into the public dispute and expressly invited him to discuss it.
The post is also relevant to her claim that Onision alone harmed her reputation by connecting her to unlawful conduct. Sarah had already disclosed the conduct herself to the same public audience.
Legal Precision
This post establishes that Sarah publicly admitted cocaine use. Cocaine use ordinarily requires obtaining and possessing an illegal controlled substance.
The fixed public statement remains:
- “I did cocaine. Use it against me.”

September 3, 2019: Sarah Publicly Admits Selling Prescription Drugs and Tells Onision to “Use It Against Me”
On September 3, 2019, Sarah publicly wrote:
- “I’ve sold my prescription before. Use it against me.”
This followed her separate admission from the same day:
- “I did cocaine. Use it against me.”
What Sarah Publicly Admitted
Sarah openly admitted that she had sold prescription drugs.
She did not accuse Onision of inventing the conduct. She published it herself and directly instructed him:
- “Use it against me.”
The record therefore establishes that:
- Sarah publicly admitted engaging in an unlawful drug sale
- The criminal conduct was disclosed by Sarah herself
- Sarah deliberately placed the admission before the public
- Sarah expressly invited Onision to repeat and use the information
- Onision did not fabricate Sarah’s association with criminal conduct
- Sarah later sued Onision for publicly describing her as a criminal
The Defamation Contradiction
Sarah’s complaint portrays Onision’s references to her criminality as false statements invented to destroy the reputation of an innocent person.
Her own public record contradicts that portrayal.
Sarah publicly admitted:
- Using cocaine
- Selling her prescription drugs
- Wanting Onision to use both admissions against her
Calling Sarah a criminal was therefore not the invention of a nonexistent criminal association. Sarah herself publicly confessed to unlawful conduct and specifically authorized Onision to use it against her.
The contradiction is direct:
- Sarah disclosed her own crimes
- Sarah challenged Onision to discuss them
- Onision later discussed her criminal conduct
- Sarah then sued him for associating her with criminality
Sarah cannot publicly confess to selling prescription drugs, command Onision to “use it against me,” and later honestly portray his discussion of her admitted conduct as a fabricated attack created from nothing.
Reputational Harm Caused by Sarah’s Own Publication
Sarah also claims that Onision damaged her reputation by connecting her name to criminal activity.
This post shows Sarah personally making that connection before Onision’s later statements.
She voluntarily published the admission from her own account to her own audience. She then invited further public discussion of it.
The evidence therefore establishes that Sarah herself:
- Introduced the criminal conduct into the public controversy
- Attached the conduct to her own identity
- Distributed the admission to the public
- Invited Onision to repeat it
- Created the precise association she later blamed on Onision
This exhibit directly undermines both falsity and claimed reputational causation within Sarah’s defamation narrative.

September 4, 2019: Sarah Publicly Brags About Sex With Onision and Tells the Public to “Use It Against Me”
On September 4, 2019, Sarah publicly wrote:
- “Greg and I fucked while Kai was in New Mexico. Use it against me.”
Sarah was referring to sex between herself and Onision while Lucas was traveling in New Mexico.
Sarah’s Own Public Presentation
Sarah did not present the encounter as rape, fear, coercion, or an unwanted sexual act.
She publicly described it as something that she and Onision did together:
- “Greg and I fucked”
She then openly challenged the public:
- “Use it against me.”
Her language establishes that:
- Sarah publicly claimed the sexual encounter as her own conduct
- She described herself and Onision as joint participants
- She announced the encounter from her own account
- She presented the disclosure defiantly rather than as a report of victimization
- She expressly invited the fact to be discussed and used against her
- Onision did not introduce the sexual history into the public record
The Assault Contradiction
Sarah later portrayed her sexual involvement with Onision as coercive and assaultive.
Her contemporaneous public statement presented the encounter in the opposite manner. She openly announced that they had sex while Lucas was away and challenged critics to use the information against her.
The statement is consistent with Sarah’s separate admission to police that the sex during the trip was consensual.
Sarah’s original public position was therefore:
- She knowingly had sex with Onision
- The sex occurred while Lucas was away
- She openly accepted responsibility for participating
- She was willing to publicize and defend the encounter
- She invited others to use it when judging her conduct
That record materially conflicts with the later attempt to recast the same adult sexual relationship as something imposed entirely upon her.
The Defamation and Harassment Contradiction
Sarah later blamed Onision for publicly discussing her sexual conduct and claimed that his statements caused humiliation, harassment, and reputational injury.
This post establishes that Sarah herself:
- Published the sexual information
- Attached it directly to her identity
- Distributed it to hundreds of thousands of potential viewers
- Challenged people to use it against her
- Openly invited a public controversy concerning the encounter
Sarah cannot erase her direct invitation:
- “Use it against me.”
That invitation expressly welcomed public criticism and discussion of the very encounter she later might claim was wrongfully publicized.
The evidence therefore undermines any portrayal that public discussion of the encounter was wholly unsolicited or created solely by Onision.
Sarah’s Repeated Pattern of Public Invitations
This was part of a series of posts in which Sarah openly published potentially damaging facts and told Onision or the public to use them against her.
Sarah separately wrote:
- “I did cocaine. Use it against me.”
She also wrote:
- “I’ve sold my prescription before. Use it against me.”
Sarah was deliberately placing controversial information into the public dispute and challenging Onision to respond.
She later attempted to hold Onision legally responsible for discussing criminal and sexual conduct that she had personally disclosed and expressly invited him to use.

August 27, 2019: Sarah Says Leaving the Household in July 2019 Meant She Could Obtain Marijuana Again
During her August 27, 2019 livestream, Sarah discussed her reaction to leaving the Onision household in July 2019.
Sarah stated:
- “I was on my Tumblr, and I was reblogging some shit about, like, weed because I was like, oh, well, I guess on the positive side, I can get it again.”
Sarah Associated Leaving With Renewed Access to Marijuana
Sarah’s own statement indicates that obtaining marijuana again was something she regarded as a benefit of being kicked out of Onision and Lucas's life, again.
She did not say that Onision or Lucas:
- supplied marijuana to her
- encouraged her to use it
- allowed her to possess it in their home
- involved her in drug-related activity
Her statement instead indicates that her access to marijuana was restricted while she was staying with them.
Michigan Law in July 2019
Michigan had legalized recreational marijuana by July 2019, but only for adults aged 21 or older.
Sarah was 19.
Under Michigan law, possession by a person under 21 was unlawful. For someone aged 18–20 possessing no more than 2.5 ounces, a first violation was generally a civil infraction punishable by a fine of up to $100 and forfeiture of the marijuana.
The accurate description is therefore that Sarah was discussing renewed access to marijuana that she could not lawfully possess recreationally at her age.
Relevance to Sarah’s Defamation Claims
Sarah later alleged that Onision falsely portrayed her as someone who engaged in illegal conduct.
Her own public statements include admissions or claims that:
- she used cocaine
- she sold prescription medication
- she wanted renewed access to marijuana while under 21
- she publicly deliberately stated Onision should use many of those facts against her
This exhibit contributes to the factual record underlying Onision’s statements about Sarah’s unlawful conduct.
Its relevance is that Sarah herself publicly described conduct that was unlawful, while later claiming that Onision invented the basis for describing her behavior that way.
