Twitch streamer Rich Campbell has been removed from his role as casting talent for the Race to World First stream following sexual assault allegations.
On December 16, accusations came to light accusing OTK co-founder Rich Campbell of sexual assault.
Twitch streamer Azalia Lexi posted a twit longer explaining her “very up and down” relationship with Campbell spanning over four years, before alleging that he assaulted her in January 2022.
Shortly after, Rich announced that OTK, the organization he co-founded had asked for his resignation, and he accepted while he “collects his thoughts.”
Several hours later, Echo has now announced that Rich would be removed from the casting desk of the Race to World First World of Warcraft event.
