After Ava Kris Tyson was accused of sending sexual messages to a child in the past by multiple YouTubers, the minor in question, who is now an adult, spoke out against the allegations. Going by the online alias @LavaGS, the person has helped absolve Tyson of grooming and pedophilia accusations in a series of posts on X.
In the pinned post on his profile, LavaGS claimed that the YouTube videos alleging Tyson was being inappropriate towards him were "massive lies" and that the accusers were "twisting the truth." He also made it clear that he was not exploited in any way by Ava, stating:
"These videos are massive lies and twisting the truth. Ava never did anything wrong and just made a few edgy jokes. I was never exploited or taken advantage of."
For context, social media is abuzz after videos and posts surfaced, alleging Ava Kris Tyson groomed the 20-year-old and sent him explicit messages when he was a minor.
LavaGS asks netizens "to stop spreading lies" after YouTube videos accusing Kris Tyson of sending him inappropriate messages go viral
On top of straight-up denying that Ava Kris Tyson had taken advantage of him, LavaGS has also directly asked netizens to help him curb the "spread of lies" and encouraged people to comment on the YouTube videos, claiming that the accusations are damaging to victims of real exploitation:
"Can you do me a favor and comment on these videos and tell them to stop spreading lies. This situation takes away from children who are actively being exploited everyday online. I am not a victim of anything being claimed in these videos or at all."
On top of his request on X, it seems LavaGS also spoke directly to Keemstar, the proprietor of DramaAlert whose post on the issue went viral on X. Keemstar notes that Lava has given more context as he denied that he was groomed.
LavaGS also revealed that he never met Ava Kris Tyson alone when he was minor, but did run a Discord with the MrBeast's crew member when he was 13, where edgy jokes were made in a public forum.
