In a lengthy statement released by a representative, the six-time Emmy winner acknowledged that these stories are true.
Louie C.K' said in the statement, "I have been remorseful of my actions. I've tried to learn from them, and run from them. Now I’m aware of the extent of the impact of my actions."
