(CNN) Corey Feldman, who has said he was molested as a child, has clarified tweets he sent that seemed to defend Michael Jackson.

"I want to be very clear. I stand for any and all victims of sexual abuse or assault," Feldman said in a statement provided to CNN. "As a survivor and someone who has been fighting for this to become a focal topic of our society for decades and is fighting diligently to abolish the statutes of limitations across the country, I applaud all victims for letting their voices be heard and I encourage the public debate to continue."

The former child star had earlier slammed the documentary, which alleged that Jackson was a child sexual predator, as "one-sided."

Feldman tweeted a lengthy statement Monday giving his thoughts about HBO's "Leaving Neverland." (HBO is owned by CNN's parent company, WarnerMedia.)

The film examines disturbing claims by James Safechuck and Wade Robson that Jackson sexually abused them over a period of several years when they were children.
