All four were arrested in December as part of a human trafficking and rape investigation, and a court approved a request from authorities to jail them for 30 days.
Tate, Tristan, and the two women — Georgiana Naghe and Luana Radu — are accused of exploiting women to produce porn for their online business, including one woman who has made accusations of rape. All four defendants in the case lost the appeal and will remain in detention at least through the end of January.
Tate built up his online fame by labeling himself the “king of toxic masculinity.” His content, which is overtly misogynistic, has earned him an icon status among a subset of men, who find his lavish wealth to be inspiring and his sexist dating advice amusing. While his fans argue Tate only wants men to better their lives and mental health, his critics find more insidious messages to be sprinkled in through the innocuous ones.
For example, in one video, Tate said women who are sexually assaulted should “bear responsibility” for what happened to them. In another, he described how he would punish a woman if she ever cheated on him: “bang out the machete, boom in her face, and grip her by the neck.”
Vice World News reported last week that Tate had been arrested on suspicion of rape in the UK in 2015, but authorities dropped the case. Tate denied the allegations.
Tate was removed from Instagram and YouTube in August last year, but was reinstated on Twitter when Elon Musk took over the platform, where he has 4.5 million followers.
