The French authorities are investigating the death of a 46 -year -old French man living near Nice, whose streamed content on the Kick platform was that others were regularly abused and humiliated, the Guardian writes.
Raphael Graven (pictured), who was one of Kick’s most viewed French streamers under the name Jean Pormanove, died on August 18th. Authorities are investigating whether his associates had to do with his death, which is at least not clear.
Gravent humiliating and apparently abusing streamers now claim that these were arranged scenes and have not actually hurt the man, but is also known for a video where Graven’s death is a realistic chance. In the video, they want to say that it is not them but their own health that they are responsible for getting a heart attack during a live broadcast.
By the way, Graven refused to say this and, according to a French portal, sent a message to his mother shortly before his death, complaining that the others had gone too far with the “death game” and held captive.
Kick has announced that it cooperates with the authorities and promised to review its French -language content and also said that the content makers related to Graven’s death had been banned from the platform during the investigation.
At the same time, a lawyer for one of the suspected streamers told a French TV channel that Graven had struggled with cardiovascular problems and had been organized by the violent scenes on the videos.
Otherwise, live broadcasts showed scenes where Gravent was beaten, stifled, blasphemous and shooting with paintball weapons. According to the Guardian, it is not possible to determine from the footage that Graven voluntarily submitted to them, or forced him, or whether these scenes were held.
