The driver confirmed that he will go to the Martín Fierro “with his head held high.” “I am dismissed, I should be working,” he said.
Driver Jey Mammon reappeared this wednesday at television to return to make a defense of his situation in the public denunciation of sexual abuse What did the young man do against him? Lucas Benvenuto last March. He also assured that he will attend “with head held high” next Sunday at the gala of the Martin Fierro Awardswhere he is nominated for the cycle “La peña de morfi”, which he conducted in 2022 and 2023.
In what was the return of the entertainer to a television studio after his departure from Telefe after a public complaint for alleged sexual abuse by Lucas Benvenuto, Mammon faced the cameras again in the “Intruders” program and gave his perspective on the controversial case involving him. “On Sunday I go to the Martín Fierro with my head held high because I have nothing to hide. And let those who have nothing to hide also look me in the face. They can greet me if they want to, and if they don’t want to, they can’t greet me. And if they talk from behind, let them talk from behind. And if they want to believe me, they believe me, and if they don’t, they don’t believe me,” Mammon said on América TV.
On that point, he added: “There is nothing further than going back to ‘La peña de morfi’. But if I go, I’m going to sit there because there is nothing more deserving than that nomination. If I take everything personally, I’m going to Spain again, I swear. Everything seems unfair to me, I am dismissed, I would have to be working”. “Benvenuto lied and my life is destroyed. I don’t want to go back to work, what I want is to clean up my image. I don’t want the foam to go down, nothing further from the foam going down. I want it to be clear what happened and what didn’t happen. I don’t know if I want to go back to television,” she said.

Mammon further stated: “I am standing above ‘Not with the boys’, ‘The victim is always believed or listened to’, I am standing there as a communicator, but there is a life story that I went through with a person and I was screwed from the beginning and I had no reaction. I felt like my head was being hammered and I had no way to get out and talk.”
“At one point I said I didn’t want to sue him: I was wondering what leads him to say that. In Lucas I see a broken person, and in me too. I am going to the lawsuit because there were previous instances of mediation. But no one thought to ask: Is it true what he says?. When I went on a trip they said that I ran away from the country, that hurt me a lot. I passed it and I’m having a very bad time due to the cancellation status,” he concluded.
On Wednesday, March 26, Benvenuto made public on his social networks that he suffered abuse by “a well-known Telefe driver”, whom he later identified as Jey Mammon, who was in charge of “La peña de morfi”, the Sunday program on that channel.

In this regard, Benvenuto recounted in a series of videos addressed to the “A la tarde” program in America, which were also broadcast to the press.a: “When I made this last complaint in the middle of the pandemic in 2020, I knew inside me that I was not going to get anything from justice.” “But during the pandemic I decided to heal. With the team of therapists with whom I was working to heal, we decided that although I knew that I was not going to get anything in exchange for justice because I already knew that it had prescribed, I needed to speak, I needed to denounce “, he added.
Twenty-four hours after Benvenuto’s complaint was known, Telefe decided to suspend Mammon’s continuity at the head of “La peña de morfi”. The case had different media derivations, Mammon abandoned television activity and traveled to Spain.
