OTK co-founder Matthew “Mizkif” Rinaudo is already
being investigated
for allegedly covering up Adrianah Lee’s sexual assault. But now, Mizkif is being accused of sexual assault himself.
Content creator Ayumi_Nini took to Twitter on October 15 to share her experience with Mizkif. According to Ayumi_Nini, Mizkif sexually assaulted her in 2019 after PaxEast.
Ayumi_Nini said that she asked Mizkif to fly to Boston to go to some conventions since she had extra badges. She even said he could stay in her hotel room. Ayumi_Nini picked up Mizkif from the Acer Party on March 30 around 4 AM. But at this point, Ayumi_Nini was starting to feel uncomfortable. Mizkif tried multiple times to engage with her sexually, even trying to kiss her and pull her close to him.
Ayumi_Nini wrote that he even put her hand on his groin while asking for her to perform oral sex on him. She said she turned him down each time.
When they got back to her hotel room at 5 AM, Ayumi_Nini kept her clothes on when she got into bed, feeling too uncomfortable and tired to change. But Mizkif tried to pull her on top of him, she said and asked for her to give him oral once again.
Ayumi_Nini continued to say no despite Mizkif’s continued pleas. She said he even tried to guilt her by claiming he had “blue balls.” She ended up giving him a handjob in hopes that he would stop.
After the incident, Mizkif left and started behaving distant. He stayed somewhere else going forward.
“I want to apologize to my followers,” the VTuber said to her followers. “After the story is released I will be taking an indefinite break from creating content on all my platforms. I told myself and everyone I had moved on from the trauma but this weekend has me proven otherwise.”
Mizkif has yet to respond to the sexual assault allegations.
