USA - It's not the first time that there have been accusations against the famous YouTuber "Mr.Beast" (26), but now it's getting even more serious: One of his closest friends is accused of pedophilia and he is said to have known about it!

At least that's what Rosanna Pansino (39) says in her YouTube video, which she published last Sunday.

Together with "DogPack404", she goes through a series of disturbing messages that they received anonymously from alleged work chats from "Mr.Beast" aka Jimmy and his team. Both had been working for the YouTuber for several years.

According to Pansino, "Mr.Beast", who allegedly calls himself "John Smith" on Telegram, is said to have been very active in the chats and sometimes replied to the disturbing messages that his former best friend is said to have written.

A few weeks ago, Ava Tyson, the girlfriend in question, was accused of seducing a minor. She is also said to be a fan of an artist who drew children in questionable sexual acts.

One of the first messages the duo showed viewers is a picture of a 13-year-old girl in a see-through top. It is said to be the young Ivanka Trump, but this has not been confirmed.

Jimmy himself also sent pictures of an anime in the chat, which is supposed to be about a relationship between a 26-year-old and a minor. He wrote that Chris, Ava's former name, would love the series.

A little later, when the topic returned to anime, Ava highlighted a scene from a show that explicitly dealt with child pornography. She also posted several "memes" to the group that showed underage cartoon characters engaging in sexual acts, trivializing child pornography.

As if that wasn't alarming enough, Ava posted a picture to the group showing her playing "Animal Crossing" - a peaceful game where players move to an animal-inhabited island and create their own home. On the wall in their game, however, was a wallpaper full of swastikas.

It is important to keep in mind that this was a workplace where there were other employees who could also see these messages.

Jimmy had also created a public group via Discord, a messenger in which you can also talk by voice or video call. Not only his employees, but also his mostly underage fans had access to this group.

However, this did not stop the team from sending links, pictures and videos of hentai - pornographic manga and anime - into the chat. After several complaints, the group was finally deleted.

The accusations against "Mr.Beast" are becoming increasingly serious, but so far he has not commented on them. It remains to be seen whether this will change in the near future.

However, Rosanna Pansino has confirmed that she has reported "Mr.Beast" and his team to the FBI - as she explained in a tweet last Monday - and hopes that the authorities will look into the matter.
