However, behind the glamour and glitz of Hollywood, Hammer's personal life was marred by allegations of abuse and manipulation. In January 2021, an Instagram account posted screenshots of disturbing messages and images that Hammer allegedly sent to a woman, including a message that read, "I want to eat your pancreas."

As the allegations surfaced, an investigation was launched into Hammer's behavior. The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) confirmed that they were investigating Hammer following a report of a possible rape that occurred in 2017.

The scandal also highlights the need for greater accountability and action to prevent similar incidents in the future. The entertainment industry must take a long, hard look at its culture and practices, and make changes to ensure that all individuals are treated with respect and dignity.

The investigation has been ongoing, with multiple women being interviewed and evidence being collected. The authorities have not yet charged Hammer with any crimes, but the investigation is ongoing.
