Rosanna Pansino Takes Action Against MrBeast Over "Disturbing" Messages
Rosanna Pansino has upped the ante in her ongoing feud with Jimmy ‘MrBeast’ Donaldson by reporting him to the FBI. The drama unfolded after Pansino shared a trove of "inappropriate" work messages exchanged between Donaldson and former employees.
The clash between Pansino and MrBeast took a serious turn when Pansino disclosed that she had lodged a complaint with the FBI against the Lunchly co-founder. The catalyst for this action was the surfacing of over 1,000 leaked messages from a work chat involving Donaldson and ex-employees, notably Kris Ava Tyson.
In a recent YouTube upload titled "MrBeast knew all along," posted on October 27, 2024, Pansino unveiled her investigation into the leaked messages. She asserted that these messages serve as "proof that Jimmy Donaldson was aware of Ava Kris Tyson’s behavior for several years."
The saga began in July 2024 when Ava Kris Tyson departed from MrBeast's team amidst allegations of "grooming" a young fan. Donaldson promptly pledged to probe the matter, maintaining his ignorance of any prior misconduct. However, the leaked messages suggest a different narrative, hinting at Donaldson's potential awareness of the situation.
