The LAPD were alerted of the situation shortly after and officers arrested the YouTube star and 2 adults; his manager Jose Barajas and another skater, 27-year-old Keelan Dadd. Reports indicate the trio were booked for sexual exploitation of a 12-year-old.
An attorney for Steven Fernandez reports, Fernandez was also a victim of Barajas and Dadd. He says the two adults preyed on Steven’s celebrity status and not all of the facts of the investigation have been clearly presented.
This is still an ongoing investigation and police are searching for more victims.
