The "Bachelor in Paradise" controversy may have cost DeMario Jackson his job. The 30-year-old, who began working as a recruiting consultant at Michael Page in Los Angeles last September, claims he was fired from his job due to the sexual assault allegations.

"My character has been assassinated, my family name has been drug through the mud," he tells Inside Edition. "The only thing I want is the truth to come out. I feel like the truth will be able to come out through those videos."

When asked if he blames Corinne Olympios for what happened, he says, "I don't blame anyone right now. The only thing I want is the tapes."

DeMario also said in a statement, "It's unfortunate that my character and family name has been assassinated this past week with false claims and malicious allegations. I will be taking swift and appropriate legal action until my name is cleared and, per the advice of legal counsel, will be seeking all available remedies entitled to me under the laws."

Production on the fourth season of "Bachelor in Paradise" was abruptly halted after a producer filed a complaint about the alleged sexual "misconduct" which involved DeMario and Corinne to Warner Bros. They were reportedly naked in the pool, with lots of "rubbing, touching and fingering" after they got drunk.

Corinne blames producers for not pulling the plug and protecting her, although she allegedly appeared to be lucid and fully engaged in the footage. She said in a statement earlier this week, "I am a victim. Although I have little memory of that night, something bad obviously took place. As a woman, this is my worst nightmare and it has now become my reality."
