Kayla Malec Says She Feels 'Safe' and No Longer 'Scared' After Ex Evan Johnson Was Found Guilty of Domestic Assault

Kayla Malec, a TikTok influencer with 16.6 million followers, is opening up about the case against her ex-boyfriend, Evan Johnson, who was found guilty of domestic violence. 

On Wednesday, May 7, Johnson pleaded guilty to a domestic assault charge and probation violation for a DUI, according to Sumner County, Tenn., court records obtained by PEOPLE. He was ordered to have no contact with Malec and not to operate TikTok, YouTube, or Facebook accounts in his name, according to NBC News.

Malec was congratulated on the verdict after posting a TikTok video filmed outside the courthouse.

On Friday, May 9, two days later, she then made a TikTok video detailing the entire experience of her day in court. She confirmed Johnson was sentenced to one and a half years in prison for his charges in Tennessee. 

Malec alleged that he assaulted her in California, Hawaii and New York as well. She said she is “currently in the process” of filing felony charges in California.

“Even though it’s over in the state of Tennessee, it’s not in California. So I still have a lot more f—-ing s— to do,” she said. “I’m safe for the next year and a half. I like, I can’t put it into words. I’m in Tennessee right now, I’m in Nashville, and I’m not scared.”
