OTK puts Mizkif \u201con leave\u201d as third-party investigates streamer YouTube: MizkifOne True King (OTK) co-founder Mizkif has been placed on leave from the organization amid a third-party investigation into involvement with sexual harassment drama involving fellow Twitch streamers Slick and Adrianna Lee, as well as racist and homophobic remarks surfacing from leaked DMs. Following a whirlwind 24 hours in which Trainwrecks exposed Mizkif\u2019s involvement in sexual harassment drama, the OTK co-founder has now been placed on leave and is stepping away from his responsibilities with the organization while a third-party investigation takes place. Shortly after Adrianna Lee revealed new details on an incident involving Slick, one in which Mizkif and Maya allegedly asked her to keep quiet, Ice Poseidon entered the mix. The former streamer leaked inflammatory messages from Mizkif featuring both racist and homophobic slurs. \u201cDue to the seriousness of what\u2019s been brought forward, we have begun the process of contacting a third-party legal organization to investigate the issue in detail,\u201d the official OTK Twitter account shared on September 20. \u201cOTK strongly condemns sexual harassment, assault, and bigotry of all forms,\u201d the announcement read. As this investigation is conducted, Mizkif will be distanced from the company he helped establish. \u201cI want to apologize to OTK, our staff, and our partners who put their trust in me every day,\u201d the Twitch star followed up in his own statement. \u201cOTK has informed me that the organization is in the process of contracting a third party to investigate [my actions]. During this time, I will be taking a leave of absence and stepping away from organizational duties.\u201d Currently, it\u2019s unclear roughly how long the investigation may take. It\u2019s safe to expect Mizkif will be away from not only OTK, but social media on the whole for at least a few weeks. As for his future as a content creator, it remains to be seen whether Twitch or Youtube will take action to deplatform him after the investigation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
