FaZe Banks, who has been seen with Romeo Lacoste in videos on his YouTube channel and even got some of his tattoos done from him, has come out with a short statement on Twitter regarding the accusations.
Banks said that he is going to wait for Romeo to share his side of the story, despite stating that situation does not look great for him with all of the recent screenshots and videos that have been posted to Twitter.
Banks also said that he would have the same non-tolerance approach for anyone who ‘fucked with little kids’ and will make his decision on the Romeo Lacoste allegations without any bias.
“Still waiting on some sort of statement from Romeo, cause I feel like everyone deserves to share their side, but the evidence looks pretty damning. Bottom line, if you fuck with little kids I don’t fuck with you. That goes for everybody, obviously.”
