News of Karl Jacobs’ Alleged Arrest Ignites a Frenzy of Reactions

The internet is flooded with rumours that Karl Jacobs of MrBeast fame has allegedly been arrested. The origin of this news can be traced to a TikTok video which has been shared by a user who goes by the name of Zachxposts (Zach news king), who claimed that Karl Jacobs was arrested and booked into a county jail.

However, the user did not specify exactly which U.S. county the arrest happened in.

The arrest comes at a time when MrBeast’s Telegram group’s viral chats contained inappropriate images of child pornog*aphy.

According to Zach, both Karl and Chris were involved, while there is no proof of Chandler’s involvement. Zach also alleged that Karl unsuccessfully tried to delete his Telegram.

However, the news has taken social media by storm, with users giving vent to their feelings online.

One user commented on TikTok,

“The downfall of MrBeast’s team needs to be studied. Karl moving CP while Chandler is reading the Bible,”

However, many users were not surprised by the turn of events and alleged that Karl has caused the downfall of Mr. Beast. Most users have expressed their shock at the turn of events.

One user wrote,

“KARL JACOBS GOT ARRESTED?”

Was Karl Jacobs Arrested?

However, there are dissenting voices who have expressed their reservations about the authenticity of the viral nature of the news.

X user Keemstar, creator of Drama Alert, described the viral news as untrue and another step to demonize MrBeast and all associated with him.

Keem wrote on X,

“I can confirm this TikTok with millions of views & a quarter of 1 million likes is literally false. If you’re sick of calling me a MrBeast D Rider then STOP LYING ABOUT HIM And HIS COMPANY. Every day it’s a new false claim with millions of views,”

However, many Keem subscribers are not accepting his claims, keeping in view the vague and ambiguous nature of his denial.

One user retorted back at him,

“I’m confused asf, you’re saying he’s arrested but saying it’s false!? Wtf is it,”

A second wrote,

“So was he arrested? Or is this fake like you said? Very confusing post for someone who has no idea what ur talking about.”

YouTuber Rosanna Pansino made a post on X on October 28 in which she revealed that she had conveyed to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) her concerns regarding the MrBeast Telegram.
