Emiru explosively accuses Mizkif of sexual assault and blackmail days after TwitchCon incident

Emiru has accused Mizkif of sexual assault, abuse, stalking, harassment, and threats. She spoke about this days after she was assaulted by a fan at TwitchCon 2025 in San Diego on October 17. Emiru said she stayed silent for a year but now feels she must speak for her safety. Fans online are reacting strongly and are asking Twitch to ban Mizkif from the platform.

Why is Emiru accusing Mizkif of sexual assault, blackmail and threat

Emiru, whose real name is Emily Beth Schunk, shared her story during a Kick livestream on Saturday. She said Mizkif, whose real name is Matthew Rinaudo, tried to contact people close to her and warned them that he would “destroy her” if she ever spoke about him.




She said that at TwitchCon, he went to people around her and tried to get their support, but no one agreed.



Emiru also described a past private moment with Mizkif. She said they had not talked in a while, and he started kissing her. She said she allowed it at first, but then he tried to climb on top of her.

She said she screamed, and he quickly stopped and left. She said she has spent the last year cutting him off and trying to move forward quietly. She showed screenshots of messages where he kept reaching out even after she blocked him.

In the same livestream, she also spoke again about her TwitchCon assault. A man broke past security lines during her meet-and-greet and grabbed her face to force a kiss. Her personal security stopped him, but Twitch staff did not act fast.

Emiru said Twitch first gave a wrong version of the event and did not protect her properly. She said she plans to press charges against the man.

Emiru said she had been trying to stay silent and move on quietly for a year. She explained that she did not want to speak publicly but now feels she must because she no longer feels safe.
