The Tragic Tale of EDP445 

He had such a strong fan base and a good career, but he literally threw it away

EDP legitimately threw his life away for his "cupcake". He spent his whole life building a reputation and threw it away in less than a day.

If you are wondering what the “cupcake situation” was, he was caught trying to have a relationship with a minor. Yeh, don’t do that.

The issue is, he denied it the first time, made up stories saying it was an act, doubled down on his lies and then tries to meet another girl AGAIN. The only redemption would have been to turn himself in and do jail time. But he just doesn’t do that. In some way, he dug his own grave and did it to himself. Forgiveness is given to those who know what they’ve done and seek to do better.

Dude went from having a huge RU-vid following to living a Black Mirror episode IRL.

bro ruined his entire life over a cupcake 💀

I think the main issue is that he clearly has no remorse. He isn't sorry for his actions, he's sorry that he got caught. If he ever truly wanted to change he would've dipped from the internet and gotten help instead of making blatant lies and excuses.

Who just came back to watch this after he got caught again😂

The sad thing about all this is that there's a lot more creators, celebrities and powerful people who do the same thing as EDP did, even worse at times, but they have enough charisma to get tons of people behind them where EDP is basically universally hated now. Which he deserves of course, but it's sad to see other people like him who are a bit more succesful get a pass.

I wish people would act this way towards bigger celebrities like actors and politicians

Update: He’s recently been caught doing the same thing again

EDP445: *Breaths* Everyone: “This man deserves 300 years in jail”

What's so bizarre to me about this entire situation is the fact that EDP was cancelled (rightfully so might I add) & disciplined accordingly by all social platforms but James Charles still gets to post freely? Granted EDP was in the process of going to physically see who he believes was a 13 year old child... But at what point do we consider ones actions worthy of "cancellation"? EDP himself had a pattern of this behavior & never appeared to be remorseful until everything eventually caught up with him; however, can we not say the same about James Charles? Or is this a matter of one having a good legal team while the other doesn't have one? Is it our perception of predators targeting little girls vs little boys? Perhaps it's about who's generated more dollars for RU-vid or who's considered more of a physical threat? It's just very odd to me that one (rightly) gets the treatment you'd expect for this kind of behavior & the other can just move on & sweep it under the rug all while still being caught up in new controversy. Make it make sense.

I never seen anyone cancel someone this hard before, wish we had this kinda energy for people who have done things just as bad/worse

The potential from social media to make you’re life shit is actually harrowing. His life is genuinely a living hell.

But it wasn’t "just one mistake" that wiped out all of his achievements though. It was *_eight prior incidents of attempting to sexually abuse an underage child!_* That’s hardly a "mistake", that’s a concerted pattern of deliberate criminal behaviour. He needs to be on a register, as he’s repeatedly demonstrated that he’s an obviously clear threat to kids.

Whether we feel bad about him or not I think we should see EDP as an example that the worst could happen to us if we didn't consider the consequences of our actions.

Every time I wonder if he deserves all this, i think to myself: “What if it wasn’t a decoy team, what would he have done?”

Who is here after he got caught again? 💀💀💀

Crazy what not apologizing and admitting your faults can do

EDP445 dug his own grave with this situation at this point. He probably thought that his situation was *minor,* but it was very major.

What he did is absolutely inexcusable, but it also feels like a lot of people are just using his reprehensible actions as an excuse to vent their own malice. They don't want to see him face justice for what he did, they just want someone that they can viciously bully whilst feeling high and mighty, and facing no consequence for their own godawful behaviour.

I was someone who easily feels bad for others no matter how bad they are. But then I realized that these are just consequences of what you did. You’re responsible for your own. If you hadn’t done it in the first place, it wouldn’t happen.

This situation is the perfect example of “just because someone is wrong, doesn’t mean someone else is right.”

It's wild how the internet was once a place to get away from the real world. Now it's the other way around.

EDP445 is down bad. I was happy for him back in 2018 when he had 200k and I had nothing. Talent went to waste

With the way things has become, man's got nothing to lose and might turn out to become a dangerous villain. People might get hurt.

EDP got caught a day or two ago again, this man need to go to prison, finally.

I feel incredibly conflicted here. I am all for redemption, people moving on, trying to better themselves etc. This constant harassments is incredibly disturbing and the fact people go to such lengths is terrifying. However on the other hand I think what if it wasn't a decoy team? Part of me feels bad whilst the other is filled with hatred and disgust.

I can’t imagine what EDP’s family and friends are going through.

EDP445: “Jalen Hurts is TERRIBLE” Jalen Hurts: *leads his team to the Super Bowl as a top MVP candidate while EDP’s life falls apart*

I still remember the day all this went down. I was actually a fan of EDP and when I saw the chet Hanks video I said "NOOOO" out loud.

Like my dad always told me growing up: “A reputation takes a lifetime to build, and seconds to destroy” Edit: to all the idiots with a fourth of a brain…you ARE aware people can quote other people’s wisdom right? He told me that Buffet said it originally, congrats on knowing how to use Google.

This guy was so funny and brought smiles to so many faces. Sad to see all this happen. To be honest, he was probably the last guy I thought would do something like that. He just seemed like some guy who sat around the house, ate tacos, and took massive sh!ts.

To be or not to be broken that is the question, I always thought that watching someone being destroyed would be super amusing but this is painful.

Some of y’all are saying that “this is too far” In total on RECORD his been caught trying to talk to 8 underage girls recently His most recent being a 15 year old girl… So…even after his life was made to be hell, he still didn’t reach out for help or to turn himself in…he just keeps digging deeper holes

Dude was living the life. He was live-streaming and ranting about random shit and was getting paid for it, and he just threw it away.

Though I don't condone EDP's actions and etc, I find it quite terrifying that the internet holds so much power over your life.

He did it again 💀

I don’t care what somebody did people shouldn’t do this to a person who at this point is just trying to live. it kind pisses me off

I don't see how getting him evicted from places is gonna prevent him from assaulting a kid if he chooses to do so. This seems more like a self-gratification thing than actually trying to protect children. I believe doing this will lead EDP to do something horrible.

The fact that EDP thought that he could have a chance with a minor is absolutely disgusting.

Having 8 cases of peso sht is totally unforgivable and I can’t even feel bad and be like “oh well maybe ppl should give him a chance”. Like no nothing should happen for you.

Normally I'd say no-one deserves to go through this but this man is an acceptation

I'm always fascinated with those people who spend hundreds of hours of their lifes trying to harm an individual not related to them

that edp fella is so silly

“The infamous cupcake event” that got me lmao

As much as I believe the legal consequences for his actions are absolutely deserved but if people chase him wherever he goes just to make sure he doesn’t improve is just rude. If these people hate him so much why are they keeping track of him so much just let him fall into obscurity

It’s even worse for him cuz he’s easily recognizable, got caught in 4K, everyone knows the chat logs, and he is clearly guilty. Even if he wanted to change himself he cant. He’s stuck for probably years in this perpetual hell he brought himself to.

This situation feels like a movie with him on the run, changing his name, barely any money, millions of people hunting him down, and everything he once had gone.

Cupcakes will never be the same after watching this video.

"FINALLY IN PRISON" dude never went to prison in the first place

This man really went from being a legend to being a no body that gets made fun of. Crazy turn of events, just shows that anything can happen and life can ALWAYS get worse.

Imagine 10 years of making videos, being a meme icon and having the most loyal fanbase just to go out like this.

Nah cuz I’m laughing so hard at the fact bro tried to apply to chucky cheese, a place that little kids go to 💀💀

the most sad thing about this is that other famous people do the same thing and dont get canceled for it. (benji krol, james charles, etc)

Some things are just unforgivable. It’s sad that he fell so far, but he has no one to blame but himself.

As sad as his future is, we should never forget he tried to interact, and potentionally ruin a minor's life.

RU-vid permanently bans edp after one bad thing. But then when sssniperwolf does something bad, RU-vid just kind of doesn’t care and only temporary band her. I get that what edp did was bad, it’s not like what sssniperwolf did was any better

what pisses me off about this whole situation is that there are other people like edp that prey on childre and when they get outted for it people only talk about it for a few weeks and then everybody goes back like nothing happened

It wasn’t one mistake, like you said after the cupcake incident people learned that he’s done this multiple times for multiple years. He deserves everything coming to him, it’s not like he slipped up once, he’s been doing this for years

Internet is ruthless. He did something unforgivable but they need to tone it down, not because it's "bad" but because who knows if he snaps and shoots people up. Keep cornering a dog and and see what happens when he bites back.

Hey... Might want to update this video.

I feel really bad for what is happening to him especially 1 day from new years but then again what he tried to do to a minor throws all of my sympathy out of the window.

All pedophiles deserve to be cancelled to this level. EDP deserved it all regardless of how sad it can be.

I imagine that guy regretted coming forward with his story about edp contacting him from prison. I know people were dogpiling him and claiming he was lying. People always act online like they know it all

EDP is the PERFECT example for why pedophiles and offenders should stop what their doing

I'm just afraid of what can happen when a person is pushed too far. When a person gets a thought along the lines of "my life is over anyway", they can be susceptible to possibly more horrendous things. I hope I'm wrong.

What he did was despicable and cannot be forgiven. But the length these internet trolls go to eliminate all means for him to get by is pretty horrendous. This is no longer about justice, I might even say this goes past vengeance. If they keep cornering him like this, something’s gotta give. There are few things more dangerous than a person who’s got nothing left to lose.

The internet destroys the lives of playground extraction specialists and I am all for it

Bro wanted a cupcake, he gets his cupcake in jail

Everytime I'm like "woah maybe this has gone too far" when I see someone getting harassed out of being able to earn a living or live anywhere (even irl) I remember what he tried to do and any concern melts away

Meanwhile James Charles be like - Oh you just need to channelise your inner gay projectile image to save from this accusations

So I just went on Urban Dictionary to figure out what he meant by “cupcake” at 3:04 and their actual definition reads: “What EDP445 calls a 13 year old girl when he gets caught trying to meet her” this is amazing 😂

The fact that he went from a RU-vidr with millions of subs to supposingly being in prison in less than 8 months just shows how strong and powerful the internet is.

I understand him getting deplatformed but, This constant harassment of getting him fired and kicked out of hotels is only going to make him worse

Wish trolls spent this much obsessive energy to expose every xxual predator.

Who’s watching this after he pulled another cupcake incident again?

Unfortunately, the problem with preventing a person from earning money of any kind is it will force them to commit more crimes just to pay the bills.

This has been a insane manhunt the internet has pursued this man from palace to place like a predator to prey denying him a chance to recover.

There's people that have done way worse stuff and get treated way better than he did

Him applying to Chuck E Cheese is crazy to me lmfao cause why?! of all places 🤣

I’m in no way defending EDP’s actions but what the Internet has done to keep him in a the dirt is scary imagine having channels dedicated to just trying to find something to expose you this is a a slippery slope and it’s only going to get worse from here

Finally, he's gone

3:00 The way he said skeleton is just weird

youtube should not be deciding who is popular. imagine if the teachers in school decided who the popular kids in school were? Its freaking STUPID.

People are real brave behind a keyboard and screen for “exposing” someone who has already been exposed dozens of times, but won’t Google the local sex offenders in their own neighborhoods to give them the same treatment, let alone intervene with the people in their lives who are actually being victimized. They don’t care about kids or victims, they care about directing anger and hatred toward someone everyone else is already doing that to. Not saying whether this guy deserved it all or not, because that’s irrelevant to the point.

The lengths these people are going to is starting to make me think this is less about doing the right thing for kids and more of a twisted fantasy of feeling like a hero by dealing damage and being able to take out frustrations with personal shit

Who came back to this after he got caught AGAIN trying to meet up with a minor…. Hope he just goes to jail for real this time

All social media platforms have policies that prohibit sex offenders from ever creating or maintaining a profile.

we still smoking that edp445 pack

No one should be judging anyone as only God may judge, remember "he who is without sin may cast the first stone"

I did not know about this person at all other than as a meme image but this story is crazy.

EDP might be terrible but those who can't get over him and keep talking about him and make his life a living hell are also terrible themselves.

I really wanted him to get the help he needed, but now there's pretty much no way as it's impossible to get a home nor a job. This is a fate worse than prison.

Changing his mentality would have been better than turning his life into hell.

The “EDP” stands for “Evil Disgusting Person.”

Not giving any room for a man to change for better is forcing him to stay the same.

EDP going to Chuck E. Cheese sounds like a FNAF plot
