'49ers part ways with Dr. Disrespect following Twitch controversy over underage messaging'

Former Twitch star and video game streamer, Dr. Disrespect, has found himself in hot water after being accused of engaging in inappropriate conversations with a minor on the platform in 2017. Despite confirming the accusations, Beahm defended himself, stating that the conversations were casual and mutual, with no criminal intent or actions. The San Francisco 49ers, with whom he had recently collaborated, have cut ties with him, setting a precedent for potential future sponsor withdrawals. Beahm's estimated net worth of $10 million may be at risk as more sponsors may follow suit. While he remains defiant and promises to return, the fallout from these allegations has certainly tarnished his once powerful presence in the gaming community.
