The arrests of the online influencers known for their misogynistic views come after years of investigations in Britain and Romania. The new charges concern offenses dating back to 2010, officials said.
I keep hearing about these guys being rounded up over and over, but is anyone ever going to prosecute them for something?
Like all bad things that are happening at the moment it’s trump’s fault. They were arrested in Romania and were in a Romanian prison until Trump got involved and kept threatening things until the Romanian authorities released them.
They should have told Trump to spin on it, he wouldn’t have done anything.
His son Baron wanted them out, he’s a fan
If you really do care about knowing, probably should read:

May they throw away the key
It’s not often you hear of good news anymore.
This should be in UpliftingNews
or OrphanCrushingMachine
N…no? Why would it? They committed real crimes, served time in a prison but then got out somehow.
More like, yay someone finally arrested these known human traffickers! Distopian part: and they’ve been selling online coursework how to pimp and abuse women for a decade. Many young men think its fantastic stuff. The US has embraced them as successful buisness men and examples. Meanwhile 2 other nations have tried to make the law stick to these rotten potatoes.
Good. Lock them up and keep them in the UK.
I’d rather they get their trial in the states.
The UK has some bizarrely lenient sentencing for sex crimes. Like months or a couple of years. These chuckle fucks should rot for as long as possible, not only for their crimes but also as a punishment for the damage they’ve done to a generation of boys and young men.
At this point, I will take whatever justice we can get to put those clowns in jail.
The US makes rapists who are popular president though so idk man the UK might be better in this case.
Trump would pardon them.
Not in this case though. What you’re talking about is sexual assault but these two are facing far more than just a few sexual assault charges (not that those aren’t serious either), including kidnap, false imprisonment, human trafficking, and money laundering.
The concern in sexual assault charges is always the possibility of false accusations. Sadly some people seem to try and use trumped up historical sexual assault accusations against people that they have a vendetta against, and it’s kind of hard for the other party to defend against. How do you prove you didn’t commit a crime 15 years ago when there’s no evidence either way?
King Charles expects now a call from potus that the arrest was somewhat rigged and that he needs to release them asap
May they die in prison
Good. And pleeease also take their phones away!
Let’s get them locked up. They’re currently riding the wave of extremism and even young lads are starting to think they are “getting their manliness back”.
not so fun fact: paywall is what pushes ppl to use AI to get the summaries
Well, that’s just great news! !
And on your cake day no less! Happy cake day!
Agent Smith finally caught up with them
Weren’t these guys arrested like 10 years ago?
I don’t think it was that long, but at least Andrew had been in prison in Romania already. Complaining how he’s a victim of communist state violence etc. Not sure why they got out, but I’m glad the UK is picking up the ball.
It’s not like these guys are going to stop to abuse women (and brag about it online) otherwise.
They got out because the US “leaned” on Romania to release them.
In February 2025, according to the Financial Times, Richard Grenell played a key role in securing the release of Andrew Tate and his brother Tristan, two influencers prosecuted in Romania on charges of rape and human trafficking. He discussed the matter with Romanian foreign minister Emil Hurezeanu at the 61st Munich Security Conference. Grenell denied any pressure on the Romanian government.
…but the problem is they do stop to abuse women. That’s what the arrests are for.
Just collecting charges. Maybe someday they can get a sentence.
Hell, even a phrase would be better than nothing.
so the main diddler can pardon them
The main diddler will have no power in this case once they are out of the US… they’re being extradited.
Anybody want to take bets on whether he’ll try to stop extradition, though?
It’ll be interesting to see what he does… on the one hand, it’s his chance to ‘own the libs’ to rally his base. On the other, it could bring Epstein back into focus.
it’s his chance to ‘own the libs’
Since when to ‘the libs’ like the Tate brothers?
By getting them released he will completely piss off and distract ‘the libs’ - that is the ‘own’.
He has to be desperate for a new “supplier” after his BFF Epstein was suicided, maybe he’s thinking these morons fit the bill.
after his BFF Epstein was suicided
You say that as if he didn’t order it done himself.
(Or, hey – one of my favorite conspiracies: Did you ever see Epstein’s body? I didn’t. Maybe they just said he was suicided (perhaps with some poor lookalike soul swapped in for him), but he was actually whisked out of prison and taken to his next island where he could keep offering his services to the rich and powerful.)
If he did this it would kill the extradition treaty we have.
Which considering the USA uses it way more than us would hurt them more.
USA has been pushing all kind of shit and UK politicians often give in because they’re Trump fanboys or pushovers, so the US does have power. How long and how far that goes remains to be seen
