Dr Disrespect returns insisting conversations with “minor” were “inappropriate jokes taken out of context”

High-profile streamer Guy “Dr Disrespect” Beahm has returned to YouTube – two months after admitting he exchanged “messages with an individual minor” that “leaned too much in the direction of being inappropriate” – accusing critics of a “planned and coordinated attack”, and asking, “Did any of you consider [they] may have been over the legal age of consent?”.

Beahm admitted to conduct that “leaned too much in the direction of being inappropriate” with a minor back in June, after Twitch‘s former account director of strategic partnerships, Cody Conners, claimed an unnamed person had been banned from the streaming platform “because [he] got caught sexting a minor”. Those allegations were later directly linked to Beahm by The Verge after the publication spoke with two former Twitch employees.

In a lengthy response at the time, Beahm said, “I can now tell you my side of the story regarding the ban. Were there Twitch Whisper messages with an individual minor back in 2017? The answer is yes. Were there real intentions behind these messages, the answer is absolutely not.”
