Dr Disrespect gives first response following E3 Twitch ban
Dr Disrespect, TwitchMassively popular Twitch streamer and gamer ‘Dr Disrespect’ was banned from both Twitch and E3, after livestreaming inside of a bathroom at the annual event – and now, he’s finally spoken out on the issue.
The Doc published a Tweet discussing the debacle on June 13, claiming that his director had been let go in wake of the incident.
Writing that “mishaps lead to recaps,” he also teased a “full video” on the subject soon, although an exact date for the upload has yet to be revealed.

Footage from the upcoming video shows what looks to be a recap of the Doc’s day at E3, featuring hilarious interactions with fans.
However, his stay at the event was cut short, after he streamed the inside of a public bathroom, ultimately leading to his ban from Twitch – as well as E3 itself, with Kotaku confirming that his pass had been revoked in response to the scandal (a clear breach of California law).

While the two-time has earned ample backlash for the incident, he might not take the brunt of the punishment, which could entail time in prison: his cameraman is also facing scrutiny, with both streaming in bathroom multiple times throughout their stay at E3.
Footage of the slip-up also shows what appears to be a minor, which could bring even more trouble to both the Doc and his cameraman.

While most first-time offenses on Twitch result in a 24-hour ban, the Doc is still locked in livestreaming jail, with his account still unavailable as of June 13.
