A North Carolina mother is suing gaming giant Roblox for allegedly enabling a predator to sexually exploit her young daughter through the popular children’s app.
The bombshell lawsuit, filed in North Carolina state court, alleges that Roblox knowingly created a “pedophile hellscape” while publicly promising parents its platform was safe for kids.
Jane Doe N.L., a minor, suffered “unimaginable harm” after a predator posing as a fellow child groomed her on Roblox before coercing her into sending explicit images of herself, according to the complaint filed by her mother.
The predator allegedly gave Jane Doe Robux in exchange for sexually explicit images of herself, using Roblox’s own virtual currency as a reward for compliance with his demands. 5
