Emiru announced during a recent livestream that Twitch has agreed to donate $100,000 to a violence-prevention charity following an on-stage incident at TwitchCon San Diego 2025.
The OTK member revealed that Twitch accepted her full list of requests after what happened. That list included the six-figure donation and a public apology. She did not disclose other terms publicly.
“They agreed to the whole list, which is very nice of them,” Emiru told viewers. She said she wanted to reach a resolution without going through a lengthy court process.
This happened during TwitchCon San Diego 2025 when a man rushed the stage and attempted to hug and kiss Emiru. Her personal security stepped in to intervene. The moment raised serious questions about event security protocols and creator safety at official Twitch conventions.
Emiru said a law enforcement investigation into the man is ongoing and “going good.” She suggested charges may follow but did not provide specific details about the suspect’s status or formal charges.
The streamer did not name which specific violence-prevention organization will receive the donation. Twitch has not yet issued a public confirmation of the donation or detailed timeline for disbursement.
TwitchCon has faced safety concerns before. The 2022 San Diego event became infamous after a poorly designed foam pit left streamer Adriana Chechik with severe back injuries. Security at meet-and-greets and stage events remains a recurring issue among creators and attendees.
