Send Push
The famous YouTuber, Stephen Carver, known online as Saberspark, is now facing serious allegations of s*xual misconduct, which are reportedly said to have occurred over 10 years ago. The charges came out on social media in the form of an elaborate testimony posted by a woman who accused Carver between the years of 2012 and 2013 of being emotionally manipulative and s*xually violent in two different incidents.

She identifies herself as an individual who developed a relationship over the years through online interactions with Carver, having said that the incidents took place after a meeting between the two at conventions. The testimony went viral across different platforms and was included as one of many allegations in an exposed video put out by a content creator.
Victim details coerced consent and emotional manipulationThe victim said that she was eighteen when the r*pe happened and that she had been following Saberspark for years until she finally met him. The victim describes how the feeling of admiration mixed with the nerves created an emotionally charged environment that resulted in two r*pe in the name of coerced consent.



“When I met up with him in person, he invited me to his hotel room and he showed me the video he was editing on his laptop, causing me to internally geek out. I was really nervous being alone in a hotel room with someone I was a huge fan of and had a crush on but tried to play it cool,” the victim shared in her testimony.


She alleges that during the 2013 encounter, Carver physically overpowered her and used emotional manipulation to coerce her into s*xual acts. “I felt extremely nervous and uncomfortable because I had never experienced having any sort of s*xual intimacy with someone I was not dating before, much less someone I just met,” she wrote. “I was very new to meeting people online in general.”
