Fans were upset and puzzled about why Pauley Perrette wanted to exit "NCIS." It was a mystery because Perrette was apparently the "most-liked female star" on primetime TV. As soon as her final episode aired on "NCIS," the dam started to break, and the real story about why she left began trickling out.
Perrette started spilling the truth about why she left "NCIS" on Twitter. On May 12, 2018, she tweeted there were "total lies" being told about her. The next day, the actor sent out a series of tweets with more hints on why she left the popular series. The actor tweeted that she didn't tell the truth before this because she wanted to "protect her crew," and claimed the "machine" kept her quiet. Another tweet hinted there were "multiple physical assaults" that happened and that "he did it." Perrette's dark tweets didn't include specifics, and fans began to question if someone had physically or sexually assaulted her.
The tweets from former forensic scientist Abby Sciuto started a Twitter tsunami from concerned fans and created a PR nightmare for CBS.
