the 4 completely unsubstantiated rumors going around are
1. he raped a chick at twitchcon, she has evidence and is going to the cops
2. he fucked alinity, she wanted a better deal from twitch they said no so she is gonna drop that info out
3. he was a member of a few alt-right discords (seems a bit bizarre to prove/ban over this, would FOH be considered alt-right?)
4. he is joining some chinese (tencent) streaming service as a founding streamer next week
it has been mentioned that the order to ban him was handed down to the team that handles it, usually they investigate stuff (DMCA, content complaints, etc) and proceed but this time they were told to ban him by higher execs.
his wife also posted on instagram that she is grateful for all the support she and doc are getting, etc, etc so it seems unlikely a cheating/raping/etc story is true, unless she is in the dark on it.
Not sure why #2 would be relevant. That would be a thing for his marriage but cheating is hardly a thing to get permabanned over. The wife's IG message people have noted doesn't make any note of "we" as in her and Doc, just herself. Could be people reading too much or too little into wording, though.
