Jakey J 06/18/2024 Garbage, throw it in trash Discovery!! See more 11/09/2021 The police and only witness concluded Onision is innocent based on the fact that they looked at everything presented by the "investigative YouTubers" and concluded it was nothing. The only witness agreeing that no crime was committed, on the police report, sums up how much garbage this documentary is. You made 4 episodes about a guy who broke up with women for being liars and criminals, those same women hate each other and accused each other of lying on social media, meanwhile, Hansen shows up to someone's house, trespasses on their land, after the last guy he did that to killed himself. Talk about insanity. Anyone can be framed and canceled at this point. See more 07/27/2021 I was recommended to watch this by a friend last month, and as someone who used to watch a bunch of YouTubers back in 2014-2017, the name Onision rang a bell. I finally got around to watching all four episodes, and I think this series is effective in both introducing the kind of online "villain" Onision has been known as for years due to his antagonizing behavior and introducing the very real consequences of him abusing his power as a (once-popular) YouTuber. I highly recommend every person who has come across this series to watch the fourth episode of this series, titled "Sarah Speaks", even though it's not listed here. That last episode is where one of Onision's victims has claimed that there is an ongoing investigation that I see some of these reviews fail to mention due to, by my understanding, the misinterpretation of a police report. So for those who hope that someone's still keeping an eye on him, I hope this comes as some slight relief. I am very disappointed that some people have chosen to refuse to understand the gravity of the situation, but I hope that more people can look at Onision as an example of who to really avoid on the internet. See more 07/25/2021 After watching this, I was left with disbelief. I am so confused as to what this doc was even getting at? What are the allegations? what exactly did he do, again? not only this, allegations that spread around the internet came out as false with an official police report being released that the officer in charge of the investigation could not find a single shred of evidence. Shiloh and Sarah, two girls who claimed to be victims, even admit he didn't harm them/pray on them/groom them etc. Like it just looks like revenge to me at this point!!!! This is slander at its finest See more 07/24/2021 A perfect example of cancel culture ignorance and people jumping on the bandwagon of a trial by the media. The doc portrays like they're conducting an investigation when there was already an investigation before the doc was ever made that found NOTHING. The so called victims did not want to make a police report when contacted by the authorities, but they have no problem getting on a TV show that paid them. Highly suspicious that they didn't seek justice by proper means when they had the chance, but have no problem getting paid to make unfounded accusations. Classic tale of women spurned that seek vengeance instead of moving on. The doc was trashy, disjointed, bad journalism, completely one sided, and a downright slanderous witch hunt. See more 07/24/2021 I have no children myself, but I do have nieces and nephews that browse YouTube almost religiously and would have been the kind of young audience that this man, Onioson, has tried to appeal to. You can't trust anyone online these days! I pray that the FBI keeps a close eye on him. See more Read all reviews
