Roblox Predator Nightmare: Family Speaks Out Against Gaming Giant's Failures

In a harrowing report, a family is grappling with the aftermath of their 11-year-old daughter being sexually abused by a Roblox predator. The distraught mother describes how the perpetrator, posing as a 15-year-old, gained the child's trust on Roblox before luring her to an in-person encounter where he violently raped her.

This incident is part of a larger wave of lawsuits filed against Roblox Corporation by the Florida-based Dolman Group, which is pursuing nearly 400 separate cases. The litigation alleges that the gaming company has become a haven for predators, prioritizing profits over user safety. Roblox has denied these allegations, claiming they are "constantly innovating safety tools" and launching new safeguards.

However, the family's attorney, Matt Dolman, argues that Roblox has "lied so many times" and that the platform is not safe for children. He believes the company cares more about shareholders and stock performance than protecting its young users. Despite recent efforts to implement age verification and content moderation, Dolman remains skeptical, stating, "They knew this, they did nothing about it, because they didn't care."

The mother, whose voice cracks with emotion, describes the devastating impact on her family, saying, "It definitely brutalized my child. It brutalized us as a family. We will never, ever be the same." The trauma has left her daughter severely depressed and undergoing therapy, a heartbreaking transformation from the once happy child.

As the legal battle continues, the family hopes to see Roblox held accountable for its failures to protect children on its platform, with the ultimate goal of preventing similar tragedies from occurring in the future.
